In the early 1850s, Rev. Ethan Wilkins moves from a prosperous parish in Maryland to an impoverished village on the banks of the Ohio River. Though his devoted wife Mary knows that a minister's family must make sacrifices, their son Jason cannot adjust to their austere new life. He idolizes Dr. Charles Shingle, the alcoholic local physician, and is resentful when Ethan refuses to let him accept the magazines that Shingle offers. When Mary sells some silver spoons to buy the boy a subscription to Harper's Monthly , Ethan finds even that magazine inappropriate for a minister's son and creates a serious breach between himself and Jason. Ten years later, the now-grown Jason is still resentful of his father. (texte officiel du distributeur)
