Walter Huston
Ethan Wilkins
"Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Great $5,000 Title Contest Picture"
This is a story about family relationships, set in the time before and during the American Civil War. Ethan Wilkins is a poor and honest man who ministers to the human soul, while his son Jason yearns to be a doctor, helping people in the earthly realm. It is a rich story about striving for excellence, the tension of father-son rebellion, and the love of a mother that can never die.
