I strongly suggest reading the novel before seeing the film, which is more like the Classics Illustrated version of the original. RAINTREE COUNTY the book is borderline fantasy, akin to what's now called magical realism. The book by Ross Lockridge is highly, highly, HIGHLY recommended; I also suggest looking up a book called ROSS AND TOM which is about how Lockridge wrote RAINTREE COUNTY and Tom Hagen wrote MR. ROBERTS and in both cases the publication of their books ultimately sapped the authors of their will to live. RAINTREE COUNTY is a good movie that’s a bad adaptation of an incredible book.

Oh heck, so is Philadelphia Story. Dark Passage (and Casablanca) is an excellent film. Oh heck, so is Philadelphia Story.
