The Easter Promise (1975)

Made for television movie based on the story by Gail Rock. In a small town in Nebraska, where the Mills family lives, celebrated actress Constance Payne returns. She's intent on selling the family home and cutting her ties. Instead, she is drawn to the young people who teach her about life.

Always loved The House Without A Christmas Tree when I was a kid. I didn't find out until recently there were more of these specials made. Its great that all of same main characters are in all of these specials.

I like how we see all the varied people's points of view: Dad, Grandma, Constance, the other children, and Addie's, of course. Love Addie's stubbornness. Not easy to make your own place in a small town, harder yet to come back after being away. There's no sure happy ending to these tales, but it's more like real life. You just keep trying, and trying to encourage others.

The indoor scenes are videotaped and the outdoor scenes are filmed (it was expensive to take big bulky videotape cameras on location).

Imagine these screen legends from old Hollywood like Jean Simmons and Jason Robards doing family TV specials. Does anyone know what happened to Gail Rock, the writer of the Addie Mills books?
