Lots of fun, interesting stuff going on in this film from the Disney Corporation; Ron Howard, a couple years after the Andy Griffith show. (and of course his brother Clint, who finds a role in all his films.) Steve Forrest and Vera Miles star as the Tanners, a family moving out west, which was actually filmed at Jackson Hole, Wyoming. the family runs into various troubles, as they try to set up the farm and make a go of it. It IS a disney film after all, so things will PROBABLY turn out ok...?? they run into various troubles and roadblocks along the way. the neighbors are not friendly.... typical disney family fare. enjoyable, if not especially challenging. Directed by Robert Totten. died young at 57. based on "Little Britches by Ralph Moody. not bad!
