Rating: 3.5/4 --
A rich family drama anchored by Robert Mitchum's fine performance and further distinguished by superlative support, by George (two of them, actually).

Creative Loafing
it deserves more recognition for its exploration of toxic masculinity, its portrayal of a dysfunctional family, Minnelli's excellent direction and the great cast.

Out of the Past
Its rhetoric may be laconic and folksy, but its fury and its nobility seem distilled from Shakespeare.

New Yorker
Although it is too long and there are some perplexing gaps and ambiguities in the story, this is an interesting and richly atmospheric rural drama with a Deep South locale.

Maclean's Magazine
Powerful look at male roles, showing innovative approaches to story telling.

Classic Film and Television
Rating: A --
Along with Some Came Running, it ranks as Minnelli's finest family melodrama, lurid and flamboyant yet also deeply emotional and incisive in its critique of the patriarchal order; Robert Mitchum as the patriarch is superb.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Wade Hunnicutt is a big man who casts a big shadow, one that looms over the Texas backwoodsmen who work his land... over the beautiful, embittered wife on whom he cheats... and over the sons – one from marriage and one illegitimate – who strive for their father's respect.
