Period piece. Arkansas, 1920s. Matt Ballot (Steve Cochran) has been away from his family for many years. leaving Bess (Ann Sheridan) to raise the kids herself. she hasn't forgiven Matt for leaving, and neither has the rest of the town. it may take a while. if he sticks around. this one moves pretty slowly. You'll recognize some other fun (older) names in this one... Walter Brennan was in so many westerns. Ed Buchanan with his slow, gravelly gruff voice is the next door neighbor. it's okay. life lessons learned. pretty serious stuff. directed by RG Springsteen. not much on him out there. looks like he did mostly western films until about 1957, then it was a mix of television and films. story by monty pittman. sadly, Sheridan and pittman both died young of cancer. Cochran died young of an infection. on a boat. near guatamala, allegedly with an underage girl aboard. that story would probably make a more interesting tale.
