Plot Summary

Also known as Never Give an Inch, this film was based on a novel by Ken Kesey. Paul Newman (who also directed), stars as the oldest son of an Oregon logging family headed by Henry Fonda. Newman's half–brother Michael Sarrazin, embittered over Fonda's treatment of his late mother, returns after a ten–year absence to work in the family business. Sarrazin's presence causes friction with Fonda, who resents his prodigal son's hippie mindset and Newman who perceives Sarrazin as a threat to his own position in the family structure. Newman has good reason to feel resentful: before long, his wife Lee Remick has entered into an affair with Sarrazin. Meanwhile, Fonda wages an ongoing battle with the unionized loggers in the region who threatened reprisals should Fonda attempt to continue his business without union help. A series of "accidents", coupled with an outsized fistfight at an annual Lumberman's Field Day, serves to drive deeper wedges between Fonda's outfit and his rivals. An extremely dangerous effort by Fonda to float his logs to the mill via a treacherous river helps to mend the frayed family ties between him and his sons. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
