by Emmett Gowen ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 13, 1933
The story of poor whites -- a tenant farmer and his family, seeking, always seeking, a place where one day prosperity will come their way and they can have a painted house. It's a story of today, and an incredibly real picture of ignorance and poverty and superstition, and withal the story of a great love between Neil, who was always in and out of hot water, and the staunch little woman who adored him, whatever he did, who had ""the sweetenin in her heart"". A story to put beside LAMB IN HIS BOSOM and SOUTH MOON UNDER.
