Boston got advance warning of the opening of God's Little Acre last week when Erskine Caldwell came to town to "promote" the film. As extra-added-attractions, he brought a wife and two agents.
"The film was made in good taste," he said in an interview at the CRIMSON, adding that the Legion of Decency had done a little censoring which he had not yet seen. "I supervised it, watching them test the actresses. I'm not much interested in the actors."
Caldwell, who could not have been mistaken for any of his unsavory characters, commented that Harvard students "seem to think the same way I do. You ask very practical, down-to-earth questions."
Caldwell, however, did not show much respect for contemporary society. "People today are a lot softer than they were 25 years ago." Caldwell, who has lived in all parts of the country, finished his indictment of modern America with a flat "I would never live in Scarsdale."
