On his Radical FIlms YouTube page, director Robert Carl Cohen says, "Unable to find distribution for an over 2 hour long melodrama originally titled 'Tender Grass,' the investors contracted Robert Carl Cohen to reedit and commercialize it. Cutting out the slowest portions, adding the character of the town floozie, strip tease on a motorcycle, sex, title cards, etc., Cohen's transformation enabled it to be distributed as 'Jenny - Wife Child.' "
Filmed in 1965 under the title 'Tender Grass'.
