BBC One
on BBC One London

starring
Natalie Wood
Warren Beatty
Deanie Loomis is in love with Bud Stamper , high school football hero and the most desirable boy in town. Her mother is shocked by the strength of Deanie's passion; nice girls, she says, don't feel 'that way'. Bud's father insists on him going to Yale before any marriage, and the young lovers find the strain on their relationship unbearable.
Playwright William Inge won an Oscar for this tale of young love and parental misunderstanding set in a small Kansas town in the mid-20s.
Written by WILLIAM INGE Directed by ELIA KAZAN
