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.
