This film was certainly ahead of its day. In those days, a woman like Jean Peters did not make sense. A woman was NOT meant to be strong and physically competent. In fact, Jean Peters, a rare beauty, was invariably described as "handsome". She toughened her lithe, athletic body working in the family farm. These days, female stars spend mucho dinero in gyms. And I cannot think of ONE that can move like Peters could.
