Wild River (1960)

A young bureaucrat for the Tennessee Valley Authority goes to rural Tennessee to oversee the building of a dam. He encounters opposition from the local people, in particular a farmer who objects to his employment (with pay) of local black laborers. Much of the plot revolves around the eviction of a stubborn octogenarian from her home on an island in the river, and the young man's love affair with that woman's widowed granddaughter. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with The Film Foundation.

fascinating performances and really interesting handling of social tensions - quite odd in places though - montgomery clift in particular.

It's an expansive work, distinguished by exceptional location photography, but, as ever, (Kazan's) focus is on complex interpersonal relationships.

David S 22 Aug 2009

Nicely made Kazan drama about various forms of stubbornness--the main example being the grandmother unwilling to leave the land that will flood when the TVA's dam is complete. But this theme is also explored by the relationship between Clift and Remick, as well as the townspeople's refusal to reconsider their racist attitudes. The film would have been better, I think, if the connection would have been a little more overt about the further connection to the power of the river (and it taking a dam to stop what it, by its nature, is prone to do).
