Based on William Inge's drama of the same name, this is a superb family drama from 1960 that was easily one of the best films of 1960, even according to the AFI. It all takes place during the porhibition era when the old ways of life really start to take a major turn. The film is well cast and persuasively acted with Shirley Knight up for an Oscar and Golden Globe as well as best newcomer. Well worth seeing.
