Ty Ty Walden, a widower lives in the backwoods of Georgia with his daughters.For the last 15 years he has been searching for gold from his land.This man doesn't know the words give up.God's Little Acre (1958) is a movie based on the novel by Erskine Caldwell.It's directed by Anthony Mann.The title song heard in the beginning is awfully cheerful.The movie shows us some fantastic characters played by great actors.Robert Ryan plays the part of Ty Ty.Aldo Ray plays Bill Thompson.Jack Lord is Buck Walden.Vic Morrow plays Shaw Walden.Helen Westcott is Rosamund.Tina Louise plays Griselda.Michael Landon plays the part of Dave Dawson, the albino.It's hard to recognize him as the same guy of Little House on the Prairie.Fay Spain is Darlin' Jill.The funny guy Buddy Hackett is Pluto Swint, Sheriff Candidate.The scenes between Pluto and Darlin' Jill are often hilarious.There's that certain erotic atmosphere there in many scenes.That combined with serious drama and funniness you have a good movie.
