Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaRobert Duvall based Jackson Fentry's unusual accent on a man he met once while walking the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Duvall was so struck by the man's deep-voiced accent, he never forgot it.
- GoofsThe entire movie is filmed in the dead of winter. The cotton "harvesting" scene was shot in a bare field with tufts of cotton attached to a few bare, leafless, cotton plant stalks.
- Quotes
Jackson Fentry: I dunno why we met when we did, or why I found you when you was all wore out. I couldn't save you no matter how bad I wanted to. I dunno why you want me to raise this baby instead of your people. I dunno what they done to you to make you turn so on them. But I don't care, I promised ya I'd raise him, and I will. Like he was my own.
Featured review
Nobody does it like Duvall
This movie predates some of Duvall's more critically acclaimed and popularly received turns, but in truth, this may be the finest acting job of his career. Duvall is this film, and he has made this kind of intense, honest character study his own (Tender Mercies, The Apostle, The Great Santini). The black and white cinematography is perfectly suited to the story and the acting. It works as a far more honest story-telling device than Spielberg's "Schindler's List." This is a must-see for Duvall fans and for fans of small, independent films as well.
