"I first saw this film on T.V. when I was around 12 years old. It made a lasting and powerful impression. I remember actually sobbing at the end. The performances by both Don Murray and Keir Dullea were riveting. I've always been sorry that both actors had only a handful of truly great roles to play because they were/are capable of much more than they have been allowed to show us. Whenever I notice this film is appearing on T.V., I usually tune in. If you've never seen it or haven't seen it for a long time, watch for a chance to view it. I think you'll be moved by it...."

Concerned that the critics would not be kind to an actor appearing in a film he wrote, Don Murray penned the screenplay under the pseudonym "Don Deer", his nickname as a track and field athlete in high school in Rockaway, NY.
