God's Little Acre [Import]

Erskine Caldwell’s controversial 1933 novel about the loves and lives of Depression-era Georgia farmers receives a lusty adaptation in this superb drama. When a destitute widowed sharecropper (Robert Ryan) becomes convinced his grandfather had buried gold on their property, he spends the next 15 years excavating for it--rather than farming--resulting in increasing financial and family troubles. Aldo Ray, Tina Louise, Jack Lord, Fay Spain, and Buddy Hackett co-star. 118 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo. Region Free
