DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THIS MOVIE

[bhryun]

WHEN I WAS A CHILD IN THE SEVENTIES, MY MOTHER AND I USED TO WATCH OLD MOVIES TOGETHER. THERE IS A MOVIE I SAW THAT STRUCK ME AND I HAVEN'T SEEN IT SINCE. IT IS SET IN THE 1800'S WILDERNESS. A FAMILY IS ORPHANED AND THE OLDEST SON MUST TRY TO KEEP THE FAMILY TOGETHER. IN THE WINTER, THEY RUN OUT OF FOOD AND HE DECIDES THE BEST THING TO DO WOULD BE TO SPLIT THE FAMILY UP, TRYING TO GET THE NEIGHBORS TO TAKE IN HIS BROTHERS AND SISTERS SO THEY WON'T STARVE AND HE WILL TRY TO MAKE HIS OWN WAY. HE PULLS THEM TO DIFFERENT HOMES ON A SLED, SOME FAMILIES TAKE IN THE CHILD THEY WANT, OTHER FAMILIES TURN THEM AWAY. WHEN HE FINDS A HOME FOR THE LAST CHILD, HE'S WALKING AWAY AND THE CHILD IS CHASING AFTER HIM CRYING FOR HIM NOT TO ABANDON HIM. DOES THIS MOVIE SOUND FAMILIAR TO ANYONE? IT WAS MADE IN THE 30'S OR 40'S. I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THE NAME OF IT AND SEE IT PLAYED ON TCM.

THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

I think the movie you are referring to is All Mine To Give with Cameron Mitchell as the father and Glynis Johns as the mother. It was a real four hankie flick!
