"One of his best stories was a made-for-TV movie, back in the '60's or '70's, starring Robert Duvall. It's called Tomorrow. I have never forgotten it"

I too saw it once a long time back, and at three score plus, it continues to haunt me to this day.

From my youth back in Missouri I have known people like those portrayed in the movie. Simple seeming G_D fearing people who could not be swayed from their convictions once their minds were set.

Robert Duval has to be one of the best actors to be found.

Yes, I agree, Polar. You said it well: It continues to haunt me to this day also. I cannot tell the tale without getting tears in my eyes and a trembling voice. It's such a beautiful, haunting story.
