Henry Tawes is the sheriff in a small town in Tennessee. A man of strong moral fiber, he is always quick to judge others and follows the law zealously. Then he meets Alma McCain, a beautiful young girl who turns his world upside down. Unable to ignore his feelings, he starts an affair with her. But in a small town nothing is secret for long. —Mattias Pettersson <seaman@sbbs.se>

Above Average Movie
Above average movie about a moonshiner using his Daughter to keep the law off his back by using her to strike up a romance with the local sheriff (Peck). Strange role for Peck who normally plays a champion of the people, but Peck does a great job at being taken in by this moonshiners ruse.
