Minnelli milks every last drop of sentiment from the not-at-all distinguished script. And many drops that aren't there.

Esquire Magazine
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
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
Its rhetoric may be laconic and folksy, but its fury and its nobility seem distilled from Shakespeare.

Reel Film Reviews
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.

Product Description:
Captain Wade Hunnicutt is the wealthiest and most powerful citizen in his Texan town; he is also a notorious womanizer, which has turned his wife Hannah against him. She has brought up their son Theron to be dependent upon her; but as he reaches adulthood, Hunnicutt insists on taking over his upbringing, initiating him in hunting and other masculine pursuits, under the watchful eye of Rafe, Hunnicutt's loyal employee. But Theron's new lifestyle leads him into a love-affair with a local girl, and thence to his learning things about his parents that were previously hidden from him. -- Description provided by TMDb
