"The Yearling" (1946)

Well, letting me off the hook last Thursday and not watching the whole movie has broken the chain of "stick it out." I think this movie probably is a fine movie. I was too tired to watch it last night and have too much on my mind today to settle in and watch it. So, I didn't watch the whole thing. I sat through the first half hour, and a couple of the later scenes that looked interesting. I can see why its color scenery and film shots won stuff--its nice movie to look at. Looks like maybe a decent family film. Not entirely sure of the definition, but might be considered a coming of age story/movie. Set in Florida aka deep in the wilderness. Gregory Peck. The dad is the likeable character. The mother is the one with the inside hurtin'. Ah, life is rough.
