I Walk the Line film review with Peck Weld and Parsons
The film directed by Frankenheimer stars Gregory Peck with Tuesday Weld and Estelle Parsons and centers on a Tennessee sheriff entangled with a moonshine family. Critics say Peck gives a solid performance but the story and material are weaker than the cast promises. Ralph Meeker garners praise in a supporting role, yet the production overall feels like a missed opportunity for such a strong lineup.
