Depression-era Dodson, Mississippi, is particularly devastated with the arrival of Owen Legate (Robert Redford), a railroad official with a pocketful of pink slips for the rail yard employees. Natalie Wood is captivating as Alva Starr, the coquettish town flirt with plenty of big plans but nowhere to go until Legate appears on her doorstep. Their ensuing affair enrages Alva's distant, uncaring mother (Kate Reid), and ignites a town's revenge.
