Tomorrow (1972 film)

Tomorrow is a 1972 American drama film directed by Joseph Anthony and starring Robert Duvall and Olga Bellin.

[2] An isolated and lonely farmer named Fentry, in rural Mississippi takes in a pregnant drifter who has been abandoned by the father of her child.

In a steady and methodic fashion, it is revealed the victim was the son of Sarah Eubanks, the pregnant drifter, with whom Fentry had had an intense personal involvement after he found her in a destitute state and nursed her back to health.

[3] Vincent Canby of The New York Times overall did not care for the film but acknowledged it was well-intentioned:[T]he Horton Foote screenplay is less an adaptation than an enlargement, in the playwright's dumbest, television-fake literary style of the 1950s.

Tomorrow is not one of Faulkner's most interesting works... Mr. Foote's attempts at pretty po' fo'k dialogue come very close to the ludicrous...
