Freckles (1960)

Synopsis of Freckles

The oft-filmed Gene Stratton Porter novel Freckles was given its last screen treatment to date by 20th Century-Fox in 1960. Filmed on location in Northern California, the story concerns the title character, a self-effacing young man, played by Martin West. Though handicapped by a missing hand, Freckles hopes to prove his worth in timber country. He does so by rounding up a gang of lumber thieves headed by Duncan (Jack Lambert). Veteran western heavy Roy Barcroft is effective in the sympathetic role of a timber baron, while Carol Christensen is appealing as Barcroft's daughter and West's love interest. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
