Review of Old Yeller (1957) by John Beifuss for Chicago Sun-Times — 25 Apr 1978
In this very lean and sensible screen transcription of Fred Gipson's children's book, adapted by himself and William Tunberg, a warm, appealing little rustic tale unfolds in lovely color photography. Sentimental, yes, but also sturdy as a hickory stick.
