tatum o'neal charges that rich lady $24 for a bible. i ran that through an inflation calculator and $24 in the 1930s would amount to about $420 today............ok, werk
I can't think of many other films that stay heartwarming without being corny so gracefully. It is SO RARE to see a film that can make you laugh and cry without manipulating you into it - there is no swelling music here, no trademark Hollywood "LOOK AT THIS! FEEL SOMETHING!" close-ups. An impeccable period piece with a delicate soul.
A slick con artist and an orphaned girl travel through the Great Depression-era Midwest, teaming up to pull small-scale scams while forming an unexpected bond.
Peter Bogdanovich directed the film in 1973, establishing it as a hallmark of the New Hollywood movement.
