Meet Me at the Fair

on BBC Two England

Starring Dan Dailey, Diana Lynn

Thirteen-year-old Tad Bayliss runs away from the ill-run Springville orphanage and hitches a lift with the travelling 'Doc' Tilbee and his companion Enoch. The duo run a show from their horse-drawn wagon - visiting small towns and county fairs. One day they discover that Tad has a beautiful voice... This nostalgic portrait of turn-of-the-century America is one of Douglas Sirk's most heart-warming films, combining comedy, music and romance, and of course, a happy ending in the best Hollywood style.
Screenplay by IRVING WALLACE Produced by ALBERT J. COHEN Directed by DOUGLAS SIRK 0 FILMS: page 24
