O’Connor’s “Good Country People” on film

I didn’t know anyone had adapted Flannery O’Connor’s “Good Country People,” but somebody has posted ’60s-era short, attributed to Gary Graver, at YouTube.

Richard Grayson writes: “Wow, I can just imagine how O’Connor would have hated this. As she said about the Schlitz Playhouse version of ‘The Life You Save May Be Your Own,’ with Gene Kelly(!): ‘The best I can say for it is that it conceivably could have been worse. Just conceivably.'”
