Although I watched the tv series sometimes way back in the early 1970s (half a century ago!), I enjoyed my first time watching this movie quite a bit. It's corny at times, and definitely of its era, but the emotional roller coaster worked for me. Ronny Howard and Glenn Ford playing across each other is gold. My rating: A-.
