Come Back To Me

I saw an excellent movie today.
It is "A Face In The Crowd" made in 1956. It stars Patrica Neal, Anthony Franciosa, Walter Matthue, and Andy Griffith and was directed by Elia Kazan.
Griffith play a man who takes the name Lonesome Rhodes. Rhodes is a gifted story teller, singer, and humorist. Neal finds Rhodes in jail and makes a deal with the sheriff to have Rhodes released so he can take part in her radio show A Face In The Crowd. Rhodes radio show grows as does his power of personality and ego. Rhodes eventually becomes a cult of personality, corrupt, vain, self serving and in the end weak.
