He finds his way to a small town where the local newspaper editor, Doyle Magee (Merrill), decides to take the boy in and give him a chance at a regular life. Wealthy local farmer, Tobias Brown (Marvin), also takes an interest in Biarn's future, but he treats the young man harshly, masking Tobias' real hidden feelings of affection and genuine concern. Biarn's mannerisms and willingness to help others, quickly wins the favor of the local townsfolk; And he also proves his worth by preparing a seemingly untrainable horse for a race that the town will hold during their annual 4th of July celebration.
Reviews:
This movie shows us how "the boy from Shane",has matured, still a soft talking very polite youth. He is a runaway in this movie and is groomed by Lee Marvin, a hard taskmaster who has made a name for himself as the poor boy who made good in this story. He takes unfair advantage of Brandon, but in the process, really teaches the youth some valuable lessons about life and how to take care of himself. These are lessons we can all learn from, and Gary Merrill provides care, comfort, and guidance for Brandon as he overcomes the hard "teaching" of Marvin. The film is anchored by the fine acting of Paul Ford, as usual, a leader of the business community, but with a soft heart for the troubled. This is a great family film, free of Hollywoods blood, guts, sex, and profanity. Written by billydpowell on IMDb.com

This movie show the essence of what a community once was , absolutely brilliant

[@theevon7835]

THIS is a wonderful, fun to watch, very enjoyable movie...Reminds me of my childhood, I am 76 years old.

[@ericjohnson3746]

My mother talked of such holiday celebrations in her hometown of Ortonville,Mn. She was born in 1918 and said that at the front of the parade would be a wagon of the oldest men she ever saw. They would be wearing there best suits and holding little American flags. They were all members of the Grand Army of the Republic. They were all veterans of the civil war. Union soldiers. Her grandfather was on that wagon. She was so proud. He died in 1923 when Mom was 5. His obituary says that the local national guard came and shot rifles in the air at his funeral. I have old photos of him with his family and you can see the Grand Army pin on his coat. I have his discharge papers from the US army dated 1866. I also have a Bible that was his parents as it is printed in 1840 when he was born. In that Bible is a 4 leaf clover pressed by the pages. I have no idea who or when that clover was picked. Thank you for such a wonderful movie. I'm proud of my great grandfather Ephraim Brooks who served in Colonel Brackets battalion company D as a private calvary trooper. Thank you.

I loved this movie. Brandon deWilde was such a talented, gentle young actor. I love the scene where he crank starts the Model T. You can tell he knows what he’s doing. If you don’t do it just right, it can backfire and break your arm. We lost him way too soon.

If you have the ignition to far advanced the engine will kick back , the art is too make sure you retard the spark before you swing on that crank handle.. and don't grip the crank with your thumb gripping around the handle or if the engine does kick back nine out of ten you will have a broken thumb .

[@marythomas3982]

It was a pleasure watching this entertaining family movie. The young man was dependable, responsible, never lied, learned quickly, and was kind to animals. He was a good example for children to view. The story takes place in a small town filled with kind people who had to tolerate one rich, selfish, farmer.

[@petesmitt]

Great period family flick.. lots of comedic touches throughout; very entertaining classic.

[@PeppieP]

Well I never - what a wonderful, life lesson movie this was. Life was so much simpler then compared to the hell that we live in nowadays. Fantastic roles by all the cast, I loved each and everyone of them for their differing quirkinesses. Thanks so much for this little ray of light in our dull world. xxx

[@monroetruss4737]

That's a nice buggy, I want one, and the horse as well. This show is loaded with many great characters. We had to pump our water when I was a kid, usually had to prime it first. I was sent to a Boys Ranch later, but I had a love and good ways with horses, so I was sent to harness them, lead them in and saddle them for group rides. Any movie with a horse in it is a good movie.

[@שלומיתשור]

It is a hart worming to see an entire county reunites for a homeless boy.

So refreshing to watch good, clean wholesome family entertainment with such National pride👍

[@DB-cx6cb]

Marvin one of my favorite actors. Hollywood has gone forever, nothing but trashy crowd. Marvin is a lost generation of true acting with wholesome movies and this one proves what’s missing today.

[@Set-Apart-By-Grace]

I can't believe I'd never seen this one before! What a treat! 👍

Same here. Got to see if there are other Lee Marvin movies on KZbin that I haven’t seen before. Great acting by everyone in this one.

This is only of the Lee Marvin movies I haven't seen. A touchy feelly movie at its' finest.

[@timothymcdonald6913]

This is a truly nice film from the time of such Americana. The actual times and backgrounds were probably not so great, but for the film industry this was a really nice bit of yesteryear. Clean, neat and tells a story.

[@terrieanndiehl58]

I have my great great gramma's dresser drawers and a few other furniture from both sides of my parents. Its been tough holding on to them. However, they are 100's of years old compared to the crap they build & sell overpriced that don't last even a decade. Heavey to move but I'm 62 now & if my kids & g-kids use & care for them they'll be around another century. I imagine what it was like to have only 2-3 outfits and sleeping clothes plus a coat hat & a sweater. Dresser has only 3 drawers. Harder life in different ways, and Lord, so much simpler.

[@maryeliason1504]

So sad that Brandon died so young. He was such a good actor.

[@monicaclark9581]

The best way to stay innocent of this world and to be a kind and thoughtful person is to familiarize ourselves with the Bible and apply its principles. That's what many people of all races and backgrounds tried to do 120 plus years ago. Nobody was perfect then. But it's much less so now.

TV shows like Lassie, Mr Ed , Manix, My 3 Sons, George Burns Show, The Ed Sullivan Show; loved em' all. I tell friends; give me today's medicines, cars and then send me back to the 60's & leave me there! The muscle cars were fun, but handled terribly. Cars today handle much better; BUT, I hate all of the electronics they come loaded with. The rest of it you can have it! Ha!
