Hello again, This story of Mr. North is so well told. I had never seen Edward Andrews in a movie. He reminds me of Richard Gere. Any movie that Robert Mitchum or Lauren Bacall star in, I automatically "like"..I had never seen this movie or heard of it until today, 110802. I wish it had been advertised more. There could have been a sequel. Thank you for listening, Florence Forrester-Stockton Reno, Nevada
