Hello Jen; I too really enjoyed this film and like Dukefan1 says you should read the book.I got the book and the movie on vhs about 5 years ago off of e-bay and I think I got a small treasure. The book is a bit different but not disapointingly so.Hollywood has based alot of movies on books and some were horrid.I think the root of Matts problem (and most of the hill folks) was aunt Peg.Her superstitions and ignorance spilled over the whole mountain but that just my slant on the film.I am still in awe every time I watch this film with the beautiful scenery and vistas.It looks very rugged and remote.Anyone know where it was filmed and is it still as beautiful???.If you get the chance Jen,or any other fan,Read the book.You will enjoy it.Harold Bell Wright is the author.Did he wright any other books that movies were based on???Enough for now...SaddleTramp...
