Der lange heiße Sommer (1958)
Gerade aus der letzten Stadt wegen angeblicher Brandstiftung geworfen, kommt Ben Quick, ein junger Mann nach Frenchmans Bend, wo so ziemlich alles im Besitz der Familie Varner ist. Der allmächtigen Will stellt Quick in seinem Laden an, nicht zuletzt weil er sich Quick als gutes Beispiel für seinen eigenen wenig ehrgeizigen Sohn Jody und als möglichen Ehemann für seine Tochter Clara vorstellt. Ungeachtet der Wünsche seiner eigenen Familie ist dies der Nährboden für einen dramatischen, heißen Sommer...
