As usual, her performance carries the movie.
Some should remember her as the mother of the James Dean character in East of Eden, where her scenes with Dean are the most powerful in the film.
Elia Kazan, who directed Wild River, also directed East of Eden.
Kazan said in an interview he considered van Fleet a "great" actress, and expressed irritation that she had been "forgotten."
In Wild River the character she plays so believably is decades older than she actually was.
One previous reviewer here is so fixated on politics that he really uses his pretense of reviewing this movie to give his own personal political views, which are of no interest to me, and which do not belong in a forum of this type.
A wonderful film. An 8 out of 10. Best performance = Lee Remick. There are other gliding Southern performances that grace the Magnolia trees, gator bait, and overalls that we have all come to love in an artistic, American way. Find this one!
Still, an incredible film and worth viewing over and over again.

- QuizLee Remick picked out two local Charleston kids to play her children. She chose the little girl because she looked like Lee at age 7. She chose the little boy because he loved hugging and kissing Lee.
- BlooperWhen Chuck and Carol stop for gas, a torn movie poster is displayed prominently on the wall of the station. Although the title and the name of the players have been ripped off, it's quite obviously Conta solo l'avvenire (1946) with the images of its three stars, Claudette Colbert, George Brent, and Orson Welles, easily identifiable; this film was not actually produced until 12 years later, in 1945, and released in 1946.
- Citazioni
Carol Garth Baldwin: [to Chuck] I'm leaving here, with you or without you, but I want you to know something... I'd be a good wife for you. A DAMN good wife. I'm smarter than you in some ways and I know what's good about you and I know what's bad and I'm not afraid to tell you... I have two children who love you. They love you and I love you... and you're not easy to love, but you do need someone... and I love you. I love you, I love you.
