16mm Film - Good-bye, My Lady - Trailer - USA 1956 Directed by: William A. Wellman Written by: Sid Fleischman, based on the novel by James Street Cinematograhy by: William H. Clothier Music by: Laurindo Almeida Starring: Brandon De Wilde, Walter Brennan, Phil Harris, Sidney Poitier, William Hopper, Louise Beavers, George Chandler, My Lady of the Congo Young orphan boy Skeeter (Brandon deWilde) is being raised in a Mississippi swamp cabin by his poor and toothless Uncle Jesse Jackson (Walter Brennan). One night, a mysterious noise is heard. They later discover that the noise was caused by a strange breed of dog (My Lady of the Congo) they do not recognize. Rather than a bark, the dog has a yodel or laugh. The animal has keen senses, and they decide to train her for bird hunting. In time, Skeeter learns that an ad had been placed for a female Basenji which had been lost in their swamp months earlier. Skeeter arranges for a telegram to be sent, and a representative (William Hopper) of the dog's rightful owner appears to take it back. Skeeter is forced to "come of age" and surrender the animal. With the $100 reward money given, he is able to purchase Jesse the false teeth that he needs and put a down payment on a 20 gauge shotgun.
