Momma.....Why.... Momma....

This is the story of 2 boys raised by a Chinaman and their father who grow up with very different attitudes. One finds out his mother is still alive and we follow him trying to connect with her. The other boy, is the apple of his father's eye and can do no wrong, he is off to college, has a car, works and a beautiful girl friends. These boys could not be different and that's where the problems start. A lie becomes a big deal for everyone with tragic results. I do like Dean in this movie much more than Rebel Without A Cause but I feel Raymond Massey is the stand out actor in this movie.
