ALL MINE TO GIVE - Movie Coloring Contest

December 22, 1957.  ALL MINE TO GIVE starred Cameron Mitchell, Glynis Johns, Patty McCormack and Hope Emerson.  Based on the story "The Day They Gave Babies Away" about a pioneer family in Wisconsin determined to overcome all obstacles. Directed by Allen Reisner.  I have never seen this movie but is has a good cast and received good reviews.  The only movie I have ever seen Patty McCormack in was THE BAD SEED - she was very convincing as one very, very, bad little girl.
