6/10
Sincere, if dated melodrama.
22 August 2005
"The Restless Ones" was one of the films produced by the Billy Graham Organization. It still occasionally plays on TV. Though it may seem easy to laugh at it, it's a sincere effort for it's time. The acting by Johnny Crawford, Kim Darby, and the rest of the cast is good. The religion issue is first and foremost here, but again, this IS a Billy Graham production. He makes one of his customary appearances at a rally in the story. One problem though, the fate of Kim's character is left up in the air. This seems more like a film these days would end--but not one from 1965. Maybe it was the first of the "Draw-your-own-conclusions" school of film-making.
