Zena Walker is worried, she tells husband Gordon Jackson. Their son, Dennis Waterman, isn't home yet. Jackson says he's probably out with his fiends. When Waterman gets home, he says the driver kicked him off. Miss Walker tells people, and local busybodies get involved, and soon a reporter from the local paper is following the story. The driver says he has no memory of the incident, and insists he would never kick a child off. But the affair starts to snowball.
It's an engaging little movie directed by Pat Jackson from a novel by James Lake, very low key at first, but gradually growing in tension and anguish. Highly recommended.
Waterman died this year at the age of 74.
