Raintree County
In The Great Tradition Of Civil War Romance
Directed by Edward Dmytryk
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A sweeping Civil War-era romance centered on a love triangle that tests idealism against passion, set against the backdrop of national upheaval and family secrets.
In 1859, idealist John Wickliff Shawnessey, a resident of Raintree County, Indiana, is distracted from his high school sweetheart Nell Gaither by Susanna Drake, a rich New Orleans girl. This love triangle is further complicated by the American Civil War, and dark family history.
