PUNQ

Rated 14 Nov 2014

A fine drama about the exciting world of high voltage dangers. Henry Fonda is a young farmer who is just mesmerized by those guys working high up on those powerlines and ends up befriending a hardcore lineman Pat O'Brien who takes him under his wings. I really enjoyed the movie as long as it was out there on the job with the likable crew consisting of J. Farrell MacDonald, Stuart Erwin and a few others. Slim gains a real family feeling about the romanticism about being a proud working man.

An excellent early showcase for Fonda, and Livingston is lovely in it.
