Two families traverse love, loss, and time, encapsulating the shared path of human existence through simple yet profound moments of life.

On Oklahoma's native lands, a cowboy fights for oil lease rights against a greedy prospector while a pretty school teacher steals both men's hearts.

With a backdrop of such historical milestones as the Stamp Act Riots, Valley Forge and the Boston Tea Party, THE HOWARDS OF VIRGINIA (based on Elizabeth Page's epic novel "The Tree of Liberty") follows the romance of a backwoodsman (Cary Grant) and a wealthy conservative reactionary's daughter (Martha Scott).

Escaped convicts Humphrey Bogart, Robert Middleton and Dewey Martin, seeking an appropriate hideout until they can make contact with their money supply, deliberately choose the suburban home of Fredric March and his family. The cold-blooded Bogart wants no trouble with the police, and he knows he can cower a family with children into cooperating with him.
