Product Description Family drama set in a rural mountain community, with the Spencers and their nine children.
Amazon.com Long before Henry Fonda played an irascible patriarch in On Golden Pond, he played an equally crusty family man in this warmly rustic, 1963 drama Spencer's Mountain, based on an Earl Hamner Jr. novel that later inspired the television series The Waltons. Fonda plays Clay Spencer, a fiercely independent, hard-drinking, foul-mouthed Wyoming laborer who believes in God but rejects (to his tiny community's consternation) organized religion. Scraping together enough money to build a new house for his wife (Maureen O'Hara) and nine children, Spencer runs into an obstacle to both his plans and family pride when his college-bound son (James MacArthur) romances the daughter of Spencer's boss. Director Delmer Daves whips up a kind of morose schmaltz out of the earnest material, but it's Fonda's grit and heartland integrity that carry the day and establish some self-effacing wit. Some nice features here, including interviews with Fonda and a short documentary, "Spencer's Mountain: Grand Teton Premiere." --Tom Keogh

GREAT FAMILY MOVIE August 10, 2010 M. D. HUFF (Kapa'a, HI) ONE OF THE GREAT FAMILY MOVIES. THOUGH THE WAY THE SPENSER'S LIVE IS NOT FOUND MUCH ANYMORE, THE SENSE OF FAMILY IN THIS MOVIE SHOULD BE AN INSPIRATION TO EVERYONE WHO SEES IT. LOVE IS SHOWN IN MANY WAYS BY THE DIFFERENT FAMILY MEMBERS. HENRY FONDA AND MAUREEN OHARA MAKE YOU THINK THEY REALLY ARE MARRIED AND SHOW ALL THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP THROUGHOUT THE MOVIE. THE EXTENDED FAMILY IS ALWAYS THERE WHEN THEIR NEEDED. AND THERE'S PLENTY OF LAUGHS IN BETWEEN.
Spencers Mountain August 4, 2010 Linda H. I saw this movie many years age and had hoped that I could find it. I was so pleased that I did on Amazon. Thanks so much.
Spencer's July 31, 2010 Michael Steinbring (Fridley, mn, US) Excellent movie. An enjoyable tale of a large family, struggling with life's everyday issues mixed with sadness, joy and humor. Good, familiy entertainment.
