Like Father, Like Son [The Young Sinner]

N.p. Laurel Films, 1961 / 1965. Vintage portrait photograph of a young Stefanie Powers from the 1965 re-release of the 1961 film under the title "The Young Sinner." Provenance stamp on the verso.

The second film written and directed by Tom Laughlin, who would later go on to great success with the "Billy Jack" film series. Powers would go on to have a prolific career, best known as the better half of "Hart to Hart" (1979-1984).

Shot in 1960, the film received a limited release in 1961 under the original title "Like Father, Like Son," and would not receive a wide release until 1965 under the title "The Young Sinner" (as well as "Among the Thorns" and "We Are All Christ"), as a double feature with the 1965 film "A Swingin' Summer."

Told in flashbacks, often in a confessional, a small-town high school football star is expelled after being caught in bed with the daughter of a wealthy and influential family.

Set in and shot on location in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with faint creasing overall and light soiling to the bottom right.
