[bonnieblu313]

i watched this movie last night on turner classic movies ..and since i have seen it a few times it always makes me cry and shows what happens when we do finally grow up and how hard life can be at times,,classic movie and nice video,

[BabyBerlin]

Oh, my. How tearfully beautiful. Little Claude Jarman and that fawn are too sweet for words. Jarman's expressions just break your heart! It's truely a shame he doesn't act more now.

Thanks for sharing this.

did the dad(gregory peck) kill the deer which madde the boy run away? or am i way off? never seen the movie yet but i realllt want to.

[MustafaPresents]

@zqfan27 - I don't want to give away an important part of the plot but, no, the father does not kill the deer.

[radtwelve]

@zqfan27 no its jody himself who killed the deer

[micmoable]

good movies where no filthy talking or vulgar actions were shown as entertainment--the good ol' days----

[micmoable]

Good old movies where no one had to curse or do vulgar things to entertain---GONE ARE THOSE DAYS IT SEEMS!!!

My apologies - BIG Mistake. Claude Jarman Jr is still alive. I was thinking of Brandon DeWilde! He died when he was around 30.

Sorry everyone!

[carolyntcb]

What a beautiful posting! Claude Jarman Jr has always been one of my favourite child actors - I just adore him. To watch this footage from The Yearling along with the soothing Beach Boys song in the background, brings tears to my eyes. I was so sad when I discovered this little boy died so young. Thank you 100 times over for taking me back to this heartwarming film of The Yearling.

Bless you!

"The yearling " I love this movie, Jody and Flag...such a great movie, anyone who doesnt at least shed one tear watching this movie, isnt human !

You did an excellent job with this vid !

Watching this old movie makes me think that Harry Potter is all crap.

[mrkrinkle72]

[KatradioNY]

Very well done! It takes sheer creativity to combine these two classics..you have that and more!

Enter this into a contest and you'll see that others agree!

Anyone who has ever lost a love..human..animal or mammal will find this absolutely heartwarming!

Thank you for the sensitivity and for posting!

[MustafaPresents]

Thanx for your generous comment.

@MustafaPresents

This is one of the sweetest postings I have ever seen. The Pairing of This wonderful video with such a timeless classic by Brian Wilson is fantastic. Thank you so much for the posting.

[SailorSexyDork]

movie was so sad :(

[ItBrandonSilver]

This movie was awful. A film about two idiot parents who won't let their kid have a deer, breaking his heart forever. Oh yeah, splendid entertainment.

[SailorSexyDork]

@ItBrandonSilver I guess you parents did not let you have a deer too by the sound of ti :-p

[Ridgid]

Ole Jody is hitting 73... !

[MannixBonsi]

That was so beautiful.

[firelione]

The final scene is one of the most moving scenes

in cinema history. Truly a tear-jerker.

[MustafaPresents]

I actually cried watching it, and I cry about once a year at most.

[homeimps]

Claude Harmon Jr won a special Oscar for playing Jody in The Yearling, and he deserved it. In my opinion, one of the all-time great child actor performances.

[tresomme12]

Good video. Very sweet. Don't anyone misunderstand me if they are reading my comments agin. I just have a really big heart. better than no heart at all.

[badhabitsjenn]

that was slightly depressing =P Still very well done though!

[BabooshkaLinda]

I agree that song is one of the Beach Boys best! Mulani has made watching this video more bearable...

[richiepiep]

Honestly, "The Warmth of the Sun" is one of the most beautiful Beach Boys songs I know, and, although it's been ages since I've seen "The Yearling", I have fond memories of it. The combination of the two is simply magical! Kudos!

[MustafaPresents]

You probably know this already but Brian Wilson wrote The Warmth of the Sun on the evening of JFKs death in '63. You can almost touch the sense of loss within it.

[richiepiep]

Oh yes, I guess I heard this on the 'I just wasn't made for these times' documentary on Brian Wilson or somewhere else. Touching at any rate!

[walkerchild69]

keep those chins up guys !! . it's a long road . . love to you .

[BabooshkaLinda]

Since loosing Cricky this video has a whole new meaning for me. It's for anyone who has ever lost a beloved pet...

[prisonbreaker007]

[galishrenata]

[pataphysician66]

Mustafa- I'm surprised that you could be so sentimental! Beautiful - I loved the movie when I was a kid-it made me cry. Even as an adult! Thanks for sending it!

[justmom66]

well put together

[metrofurs]

Beautifully done and very touching, excellent music and video selection.

[Clobberbob55]

I love the way you put 'em together, my friend.

Moved me to tears. Now I'll spend some time figuring out why.

[BabooshkaLinda]

I remember the movie well. One of the heartbreakers of my youth. Thanks for bringing it back.

[Lisassaved]

WOW that made me think of ME in 2 years when Ashy Monkey leaves, sad much!!!! But beautiful work from the ARtiSt!!!
