The Insolent Breed

0/5 ( ratings)

A valley community in the South which is dominated by righteous Squire Whisenant and sin-preaching Brother Locke is shocked from their barren, bitter life when nineteen-year-old Shade Motley and his fiddle stroll in -- and stay on. His music, the dances it encourages, the situations it creates, together with Shade's own antagonistic beliefs, soften the Squire, persuade Brother John and open the way for the Squire's two daughters to marry...

And twenty years later Shade and his five -- John Tom, R. L., Woodrow, Clefton, and Jackie -- discover a way to take their music further...

The inspiration for the 1966 Broadway musical A Joyful Noise.
