Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Stanwyck carries this episodic Southern saga virtually single-handed, striking out for New Orleans on her own when Mississippi riverman McCrea does a runner after their nuptials, mistakenly believing he's accidentally killed a man during the reception. It all ends happily, but by a roundabout route. Undemanding.Author: TJ
