Toomuch to cover in this masterpiece. Jane Fondas performance as gerie novels is the same merit. My so said you forget it's jane fonda. She is an artisan wood carver making a Christ figure. Clovis has a wizards hands with machinery.

She saved so hard for a farm of their own She became tight fisted. Clovis thinks moving to Detroit would be better for all of them,he is the man do as I want. Once they arrive there it gets hard. Clovis boasting and bragging how great he art about all the big money.

He wanted his family to have nice things understandably, since gertie don't spend anything g she deems frivolous, that too is a problem. Shes so busy saving saving she buys cheap food, and that upsets him the most. They have five kids, the oldest boy and little girl hate that place, a far cry from kentucky a place of grace plenty. Cassie marie has an imaginary friend Callie Lou to help dealing with that place,ruben leaves for home. I don't understand why gertie didn't flat outright tell him she had money for a farm when he yelled at the little girl, what an ass..... she gets killed by playing by the railroad tracks.

Endless hardships, but after another tragedy losing her beloved father, she sacrifices the Christ figure to make figurines to get back home. Clovis finally realizes what an incredible woman he's married to.

What I found astounding was Clovis letting her take the helm, she moved over. And went home All the performances in this movie was superb.
