One of the great film adaptations of any American novel, starring Sondra Locke in her screen debut, opposite Alan Arkin. Although much of the political aspect of McCullers' novel was removed from the film, the themes present in the author's work are readily apparent: race, loneliness, impoverishment, and anger. Arkin and Locke were nominated for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress Oscars.
