As TV Guide said, this classic originally on CBS is reminiscent of "It's A Wonderful Life." Lee & Angela are warm & wonderful as they always were, & Polly Holliday has one of the great scenes ever. Families will shed a tear & a hug together.
Great true story, with Johnny Cash having a great time playing the determined sheriff & Andy Griffith terrifically playing against his 'Mayberry' image as the villainous landowner. One of the best TV movies.
