This was a fucking western! I suffered through this movie like I have never suffered through a movie before. Set in the late 1880's rate to attain land. The Cravat's led by fearless Yancey are all in Oklahomy.. ok ok Oklahoma but I like how Issiah said it better. Anyway they have a rollercoaster kind of life and blah blah blah... then they get old and die and have one ungrateful daughter, one very nice son Cim, and throughout this process I still have no idea where they got the name for the movie! It was very long and tedious. Even though I liked some parts I really didn't feel others were necessary. Furthermore it was a WESTERN. I just can't deal, the end was kind of sad but I was glad it was finally over. This was kind of like a western version of “How Green was my Valley” but the latter movie was definitely better. There is no reason why any one should watch this movie, maybe torture?
It also won awards for:
Best Writing, Adaptation: Howard Estabrook
Best Art Direction :Max Rée
