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 love this movie. It reminds me of when I first got into business, and my boss was the first person who had ever showed me kindness. I was literally taken aback by my first experience with kind people. This movie is for those innocent people who need assurance that kind people are out there, but far and few between.
Great comment my friend...set the example for ALL and perhaps America 🇺🇸 smiles again despite our current inept government an non effect President Joe Biden... 😊 SMILE ITS CONTAGIOUS
Those statues in public squares around the country were installed right smack dab over a free flowing GOD giving fresh water spring. Now you know some of the rest of the story.
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.
@@monkshavano3613 the earh is not worn out. We have more forests now than we did a hundred years ago. There are regreening projects all over. Including areas that have been deserts for thousands of years. What we are leaving is a bunch of ungrateful ignorant lazy brats. I blame parents who voted for gutless politicians who robbed us all blind after they sold us a communist lie.
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.
@@eleanorerosanova7538 No, he continued acting in film, stage, and television. He even tried to get a music career going, but was killed in an automobile accident at the age of thirty.
This is one of the sort of films my Father loved . He would take us to the cinema on Friday nights , Mum would take her knitting , and we four girls would be given an ice cream in the interval . We would walk home through our small town in NewZealand feeling the magic in the starry night sky .
@@petesmitt You know Pete , you are absolutely right . No joke , truth . And though thinking of those old family times made me nostalgic , those days were very very unenlightened . Cruelly, wrongly so . Thank you for your comment .
@@lindacarruthers3423 Here's my sincere comment; you were lucky to have grown up in one of the Commonwealth countries enjoying the peak of western civilisation; they were innocent times and certainly ignorant of some negative aspects of those 'advances' in hindsight but overall, you were blessed to live through those times.
@@petesmitt Mr Smitt , every day I am aware of my good fortune . Certainly there’s nowhere on this earth that was or is perfect , but that older world was a lot closer to perfection than this complicated chaotic and violence strewn one .
They don’t make movies of such anymore. It brings back the nostalgia of the good old days where common folks were still uncomplicated, decent and honest folks.
This movie is at the top of the list, a truely American film. If only we had learned A fraction of what the people of Delphi did. The world would be a much better place to live in.
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.
Enjoyed this movie, its kind of challenging life way back before. Our great great grand parents are still the best in terms of disciplined with respect people.
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
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.
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.
I'm happy you have good memories of your younger years. No matter how tough life is, it helps to have good friends and a good mentor to to help you succeed.
Especially now??? Nah... You need to study a little history... These are the best times ever!!! Ever heard of WW2??? 1?.. The sixties and seventies even... Much more tumultuous than today.. Not to mention all we have that didn't exist in the "golden age" of the past... Nah..
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.
Lovely movie. Thank you for uploading. This is why I love UA-cam. I wouldn't have a chance to watch anything like this in Sri Lanka, where I reside now , if UA-cam wasn't there.
being from Missouri, I remember scenes like the bridge. My favorite memory of Missouri is when I left there at the age of 17, never to return. thank god. let missouri be damned where the start of the civil actually began, not ft. sumpter. where ignoramus' foul the rivers and even streams with chemical waste, by the light of the moon.
Transformation and redemption for everyone. Wonderful low-key performances from the entire cast, including Lee Marvin as Brown, who must teach Byron (De Wilde) some hard life lessons. The only trouble with the plot is that Twister--a beautiful horse by any standards--would have had to have been trained earlier.
Classic... Clyde, played by Ken Curtis (Festus of Gunsmoke fame). If you've never heard Ken Curtis sing, look for some videos, you'll be pleasantly surprised ✌️ 😎 These old movies are great 👍
Legend not only U.S.world acting legend and real man who newer care who is who but judge you how you treat others. Hollywood will newer have actor like Lee Marvin
I don't know, I could go on forever about movies like this; everybody watched them back then, everybody was happy when they did. A couple off type comments from time to time; no biggie though. 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!
Good good movie…and a lot of stuff necessary to the story just seemed to appear like magic. But…that’s movieland for ya.🤗😊 Fight scene at the end…reminiscent of the fight scene in John Wayne’s..The Quiet Man movie…I think fight scenes were pretty popular back when these movies were made. Still fits the story here too.

I am from Minnesota and a lot of the small towns still have parades like this for Fourth of July😊
Gary Merrill was always an actor that was enjoyable to watch!

I was literally taken aback by my first experience with kind people. This movie is for those innocent people who need assurance that kind people are out there, but far and few between.
Yeah i love this movie because it reflects a different time when people seemed genuinely decent and kind. something that seems so lacking today.

My kind of movie. Lee Marvin is one of my favorites, he can play the bad guy as good as anybody.
This is only of the Lee Marvin movies I haven't seen. A touchy feelly movie at its' finest.
So sad that Brandon died so young. He was such a good actor.
They don’t make movies of such anymore. It brings back the nostalgia of the good old days where common folks were still uncomplicated, decent and honest folks.
So refreshing to watch good, clean wholesome family entertainment with such National pride👍
This movie is at the top of the list, a truely American film. If only we had learned
A fraction of what the people of Delphi did. The world would be a much better place to live in.
It is a hart worming to see an entire county reunites for a homeless boy.
Great period family flick.. lots of comedic touches throughout; very entertaining classic.

It is a good feelin' flik. For sure. You probably never lived in a small town.. There are many wealthy people in my town... They give... A lot!!!!
Áa
Western movies when I grew up. great storyline sweet music and wonderful actors. you believe in them and the true stories that happened.
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 UA-cam that I haven’t seen before. Great acting by everyone in this one.

Such happy music and beautiful photography. Credible story line. Enjoyable beyond words
First time Ive ever seen this. Unusual because Ive followed Westerns all my life. Good flick.
A really good feel good movie, where everyone wins.
what a great movie!! why cant they make them like that any more?
Good movie. These oldies are worth watching.
I wasn't expecting that. This is a brilliant movie thanks for sharing it with us.
Great movie, with one of my favourite actors, Lee Marvin, and a great cast, of a lot of familiar faces.
Always love Lee Marvin. ♥ RIP
I enjoyed this clean movie with good value, people could use this as a strong lesson for today…
That was an Awesome Movie , It’s Really Too Bad They Don’t Make More Movies Like This One Now !!!
What a fine movie, the kid also was in Shane! Sad he lost his life at 30 in Lakewood CO
I love the bad guy never wins.I just love it in life🎉
Lovely movie. Thank you for uploading. This is why I love UA-cam. I wouldn't have a chance to watch anything like this in Sri Lanka, where I reside now , if UA-cam wasn't there.
Absolutely loved and enjoyed this movie. Thank you for the upload.💗 💕
Brandon deWilde was the kid in 'Shane' with Alan Ladd (1953) just five years before this movie. He died young at age 30 in a traffic accident.
O wow
This movie reminds me of another movie that Lee Marvin was in "Paint Your Wagon" a very funny movie.!!
What ever it is l double it?
Very lovely movie. Has a lyrical going about it. Everything is getting into everything, coupled with good performance. And the lady's ravishing face!
Such an amazing movie!
Great heart warming movie. I was hoping to see more of Lee Marvin.
Watch Donavan's Reef with Lee Marvin and John Wayne.
Damn good flick, we still have good peeps in this world. 🙂
