The Rowdyman (1972) $19.99
Will Cole (Gordon Pinsent) is a charismatic 35-year-old paper mill laborer who seems to celebrate a life of bad choices. He lives and behaves as if he was still 18, womanizing and drinking and rejecting responsibility because he sees no reason to take life seriously. Surprisingly enough, despite his devil-may-care attitude, he has several important people in his life. He maintains a special relationship with Stan (Will Geer), an old mentor who lives in a nursing home, and Ruth (Linda Goranson), the only woman he truly cares about. Andrew (Frank Converse) is his best friend but grows tired of Will's antics, and he is soon to be married and moving on. Will constantly has something up his sleeve but his pranks inevitably bring pain and tragedy to those closest to him, forcing him to reevaluate his life and make some difficult decisions.

NOTE: The source for this film was taken from a rare Canadian TV broadcast and the picture quality is a bit grainy, but still the best currently available anywhere.
