Description
|
|
|
|
Burt Lancaster stars in this 1956 film adaptation of N. Richard Nash’s Broadway play as Starbuck, a smooth-talking con man who sells his rainmaking “powers” to unsuspecting, drought-ridden western towns. A desperate rancher takes him up on his offer, while his spinster daughter (Katharine Hepburn) is skeptical. But when the rainmaker focuses his charisma on her, he begins to fall in love. Hepburn received her seventh Oscar nomination as the tomboy rancher; Earl Holliman won a Golden Globe as her impulsive young brother.
