Driftwood (1947)
9/10
Didn't expect to watch the entire movie. - but it pulls you I

Remarkable how talented a child actor Natalie Wood was. Saw this on Amazon Prime- clicked it like playing 'movie roulette' - the initial fire & brimstone deserted decayed church scene is so strange but then , yeah,it's cheesy, And sweet but you wind up liking these people and rooting for them: it's got 'Lassie' 'the wicked witch Walter Brennan , etc many character actors of that time '. It has the happy ending you know is coming and, which in these days of superior cynicism, is oddly satisfying: they're happy. Good wins.

Viewing this from 2015 it's an amazing & sweet time capsule I got pulled in and wound up watching the entire thing.
