Naish Masterful in Steinbeck Satire Medal for Benny
Nadine Subotnik reviews A Medal for Benny by Steinbeck and Jack Wagner. The piece follows Benny’s father in a Paisano community near California as Benny earns a Congressional Medal of Honor posthumously and the town hypes his legend while his father questions the hype. Dorothy Lamour stars as Benny’s promised and Arturo de Cordova as the rival. Fernando Alvarado plays Dottie's brother. The ending leaves a sense of Steinbeck realism.
