Michael Landon's early life as a teenager growing up in the New Jersey suburbs really is nice to watch. Back then, he was only known as Eugene Orowitz as he struggled with his identity, but eventually finds stardom, romance, and standing up to school bullies. Eli Wallach and Anne Jackson are superb as his parents, while Timothy Patrick Murphy hits it home as the teenaged Landon and Hallie Todd as his love interest.

Look for small parts by Joanna Lee, James Karen, Harvey Gold, and even Landon himself.
