Sam Vernon: [talking to Jerry about Jerry wanting to marry Emily] Uhh, I remember how I felt when I was your age, I have respect for it. It was 1929... I was 18 and graduated from high school back in Kentucky. I remember saying goodbye to your mother when I went away looking for work. I went clear to Alaska trying to find a job... I knew she was waiting for me... so she waited 8 years. That's how times were then.
Jerry Vernon: [looks puzzled] Well, what's that got to do with it?
Sam Vernon: Now at least it's better, your girl won't have to wait so long.
Jerry Vernon: No, Emily and I don't want to wait at all.
Sam Vernon: We better never have anything like 1929 again. Just the same, you *learn* from it... money's a whip. Sometimes it gets to be like a whip on your bare back.
Jerry Vernon: [looks puzzled] Well, why do you keep going back over that? Things are different now, it's easy to get a job.
Sam Vernon: Yeah, but what kind of a job...
Jerry Vernon: Any kind.
Sam Vernon: Oh, no! No, not any kind. Kind where you make something of yourself. That's why I done what I could to have something in the bank for you... when you go to Tech.
[Jerry turns away]
Sam Vernon: Er, you're not thinkin' of givin' it up?
Jerry Vernon: It depends on whether my grades are good enough.
Sam Vernon: Well, you're not studying as much as you were.
Jerry Vernon: So what?
Sam Vernon: So what! Well, what are yuh gonna do, get some two-bit job and stick to it your whole life?
Jerry Vernon: No, I'm not gonna do that.
Sam Vernon: Well, that's what you'll end up doin' if you don't get some *sense* in your head!
Jerry Vernon: Look, Pa, there's no sense in getting sore.
Sam Vernon: You *think* you know all the answers, don't you, Jerry, just bec...
Jerry Vernon: [with attitude] I'm sorry, Dad. You say you know how I feel but you don't. I *love* her, that's what's important.
[Sam looks at him glaringly and walks away]
I appreciate this film for two reasons. First, it's realistic when it comes to sex and sexuality. Most films of the day take the 'just say no' attitude towards sex, which is awfully naïve. Second, it has an excellent message for teens...that it IS difficult to control those urges and that patience is important. But it also doesn't come off as preachy or phony...which I really appreciate. Well worth seeing and well made.
By the way, IMDB trivia says that Trundy was only 14 when she made the film. Unless she made it and they shelved it for a few years before releasing it, she was probably 17 or 18 (check her birthdate and year it was released...you'll see what I mean).
