- Alcoholic Matt Ballot (Steve Cochran) abandoned his wife Bess (Ann Sheridan) and mute daughter Annie (Sherry Jackson) in Arkansas nine years ago. Now sober, he returns to discover Bess gave birth to a son, Abe (Richard Eyer), after he left. Bess grudgingly hires him as a handyman.
Hytower (Sonny Tufts) wants to marry Bess and tries to make Matt jealous and picks a fight with him. Matt endears himself to his kids by defending them from wild pigs and a group of local bullies. He risks Annie's love by admitting that she was in the car when he drunkenly wrecked it. Although she was unhurt, she never spoke again. Annie embraces him. Matt later saves a child and Annie during an approaching tornado.
Bess is upset when Matt has a single drink at a dance to prove he can stop at just one drink. Matt rescues her when, overcome by emotion, she accidentally drives her truck into a river. Annie falls into an old mine shaft, but Matt rescues her. Bess finally admits she is back in love with Matt.
A 1956 American Trucolor romantic drama film directed by R. G. Springsteen, produced by Herbert J. Yates and Steve Cochran, written by Montgomery Pittman, cinematography by Jack A.

Final screen appearance of Dorothy Bernard. Released by Republic Pictures.
Steve Cochran in a nice change of pace from the brooding thugs he normally played. While he certainly had the physique and dangerous air required for those roles there was also an underlying gentleness to his screen presence that is well utilized here. Steve Cochran (1917 - 1965), born Robert Alexander Cochran, was an American film, television and stage actor. While he appeared in high school plays, he spent more time delving into athletics, particularly basketball. After stints as a cowpuncher and railroad station hand, he studied at the University of Wyoming, where he also played basketball. Impulsively, he quit college in 1937 and decided to go straight to Hollywood to become a star, and gradually progressed to Broadway, film and television. Cochran was rejected for military service in World War II because of a heart murmur, but he directed and performed in plays at a variety of Army camps. Samuel Goldwyn brought Cochran to Hollywood in 1945. Goldwyn made only a few films a year, so he loaned Cochran to Columbia Pictures for "Booked on Suspicion" (1945), a Boston Blackie movie. Goldwyn then used Cochran in another Danny Kaye movie with Mayo and Vera-Ellen, "The Kid from Brooklyn" (1946). After United Artists borrowed him to play a gangster in "The Chase" (1946), Cochran appeared in the prestigious drama "The Best Years of Our Lives" (1946), playing a man who has an affair with a woman played by Virginia Mayo that continues even after her husband (played by Dana Andrews) returns from war. In 1949 Cochran went over to Warner Bros.
Steve Cochran formed Robert Alexander Productions after his actual first two names, which attempted to make some television series, and "The Tom Mix Story" (with Cochran as Mix). This was his first production, written by Cochran's friend Montgomery Pittman and featuring Pittman's stepdaughter Sherry Jackson. Filmed in locations around Sacramento, Republic promised Cochran an "A Picture" release but released it as the lower half of a double feature, prompting The Hollywood Reporter to run an item declaring, "Wake up, Republic. You have another Marty (1955) on your hands... Or don't you care?".
Ann Sheridan said that this film was her favorite among those in which she played. She was also disappointed that the film was not released in a better way.
Max Steiner wrote the score for the film, reusing much of his work from "Sergeant York" (1941).
Soundtrack musić:

The theme song, "Come Next Spring" was covered by Scott Walker on his album "Scott 2" (1968).
The Village Voice, Farran Smith Nehme wrote, "Both [Sheridan and Cochran] give lovely performances; their first reunion, delivered with clean sincerity, is a marvel of things left unsaid," adding that "the movie is sentimental in a way that shouldn’t be taken as a pejorative."
A review of the film by Gina Telaroli for Mubi described it as "quite a frank film that deals with some pretty rough stuff, like how devastatingly hard it can be to trust someone who has betrayed you," and having "a great Walter Brennan performance" with a "terrifying cliff-bound scene at the end."
If you liked "The Waltons" or "Little House on the Prairie," you should enjoy this charming piece of Americana.
This is far and above anything Hollywood puts out today! * * * * * stars!
Wow, lovely family drama ❤
What a great movie, with a great ending*
Awesome movie and an more awesome ending!! Thanks for the posting of this movie. ❤😊
Very Very Very Excellent movie, script, and actors and everything.
Just very wonderful.
🥰Thank you 😃Always enjoy watching a Walter Brennan movie .
Lovely film plot and great condition. Very enjoyable would recommend 🤗
I tend to watch movies my mother would have watched when i was born
I am so touched with tears by the ending. Just be a man, face the reality, then work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
I waited the entire film for the girl to talk & she ends up doing bird impressions. 🙄😂
Charming and quite moving. It’s a shame that cinema has deteriorated so much these days. Big budgets, violence and CGI can’t make up for soulless exploitation movies. This film has heart!
Wonderful movie.
Thanks enjoyed watching 👍👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Nice movie; the big fight scene at the end reminds me of the fight scene in "The Quiet Man" with John Wayne.
I was trying to guess the last name of the
Sonny was, all I could come up with was Bono or Liston!
Tufts was not in my orbit! Thanks, DPB,
confident I will enjoy this movie made a year after I was born! The fight scene reminded me of 'McClintock'!
Then, suddenly Matt displays his expert mountaineering skills and rescues the now screaming oldest daughter!
Suspension of disbelief was tested to the extreme!
But, any movie with Walter(Real McCoys) Brennan and Edgar(Petticoat Junction) Buchanon in it is a winner!
As an old fan of Ann Sheridan (and Walter Brennan, Edgar Buchanan, Steve Cochran, Sonny Tufts, Sherry Jackson, James Best, Richard Eyer), I'm pleased to read these comments in praise of her last movie. Max Steiner seems to have reused part of his music score from Sergeant York, a wonderful little theme. It's a crime though, that Brennan and Buchanan had no scene together!
This lit my missus on fire. 🔥
She said that the girl didn't have to learn much in the way of lines. 😂
Steve Cochran always played such horrible parts,I think this was a great film
🤩
Nice old movie but I couldn't get into it because of how "Bess" looked more like "Matt's" mother than his wife. Reminds me of my grandparents small farm when I was a kid. I couldn't find the name of the narrator in the credits, sounded something like Allen Ladd.
Geez, Don, you haven't looked closely at guys' wives. 😂
Steve Cochrane narrated it himself.
Sherry Jackson before she became Andrea the Android.
"To love you. To...to kiss you. Love. Kiss..."
John Ford podría denunciar a este director por plagio. Esa pelea final me suena
If you're referring to the fight between John Ford and Victor McLaglen, both films were released by the same studio, Republic Pictures. Sometimes, studios do that sort of thing when theyown the copyright.
@@williamsnyder5616 Sí, me refiero a la homérica pelea entre Squire ‘Red’ Danaher y Sean Thormton, a causa de la hermosa Mary Kate. ¡Qué verde era entonces mi valle!
Too dark
She took back a deadbeat dad who abandoned the family 9 years ago? Walter Brennan is one fine actor. But I read he was a huge racist.
