A period piece that takes place in the United States "home front" during World War 1 (it could be WW2):
After a drifter had gotten attacked by dogs, the police arrest him and charge him with vagrancy. A local woman, whose husband is overseas at war and is missing in action, offers to let him stay at her rural home. He goes to live at her place and makes friends with her little daughter.
The locals think he's a coward because he's not taking part in the war and beat him up at a barn dance.
He and the woman get romantic feelings toward one another. He thinks it's wise to leave because it's not confirmed that her husband was killed in the war. As he's walking down the road, leaving her place, he passes her husband, who's in uniform, returning from the war.
This might be a TV movie. Does anyone know the name of it?
