Dawn to Dawn Synopsis
On a desolate farm, a man and his grown daughter eek out a living. He's aging and ill; she's lonely and wan. He's adamant that she have no contact with men, so she's a prisoner of the farm. One hot day, while she takes a nap beside a haystack after plowing, a drifter approaches her. She sees a chance at a life less desperate. The drifter comes for supper and the old farmer let's the young man spend the night. But will he allow his daughter's longing to express itself, and if she must, who will she choose?
Down the Mississippi Synopsis
The simple story is about two siblings, little brother Bud and big sister Susie. After they've been reading "Huckleberry Finn" they dream of adventures on the Mississippi River.
"Dawn to Dawn" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Down the Mississippi" offers its own unique cult appeal.
