I remember a movie with Doug McClure that used to be on rotation as a "Midday Movie" during the Australian summer (December/January) twenty or thirty years ago, but I can't seem to find it on his IMDB list.
The few details I remember:
It was very similar in tone and storyline to "Heaven Knows Mr Allison" with Deborah Kerr and Robert Mitchum - it was about a soldier and a nun stranded on an island, with some romantic/sexual tension. I remember the last scene being the waves washing over the shore of the island.
I'm almost sure it was a TV movie as I kept watching the credits wanting to find out Doug's name, but it never had the cast listed.
I would say it was maybe made in the 70s given Doug's apparent age, I also identified Doug later while watching Out Of This World and he had definitely aged a little.
So can anyone help me figure out what this movie was called?
