****"The Journey of Natty Gann" is one of our family's favorite movies, but I couldn't interest anyone else in watching it with me; so watched it alone. It is an enjoyable movie, with the struggle of the depression era, the railroad tramps and camps. Natty's father takes a job, and leaves his daughter behind. He had no choice, and works in a logging camp. He returns for his daughter, but she has gone looking for him. She is presumed dead. The grief of the father thinking he had lost his daughter, and then the classic restoration at the end. This movie launched the career of John Cusack as he portrayed a drifter that befriends Natty. Meredith Salenger stars as Natty Gann and Ray Wise as her father.
