SYNOPSIS:Academy Award-winner Lionel Barrymore stars in this gentle drama about a widowed physician who returns to his small rural hometown to set up practice. Dr. Eli Watt (Barrymore) tends tirelessly to the needs of the town's skeptical and unappreciative residents, often receiving home-grown vegetables as the only payment for his work. Dr. Watt’s son Jimmy (Buster Phelps as a child, Joel McCrea as an adult) follows his father’s footsteps in the medical field, eventually surpassing him in reputation as a successful if selfish surgeon. Jimmy soon takes his beautiful fiancée Joan (Frances Dee) for granted, and it is up to the altruistic Dr. Watt to set his son straight.
An inspirational testament to human kindness, One Man’s Journey impressed filmgoers and critics alike: The New York Times praised Barrymore’s performance in particular, noting that he “lends amazing sincerity to his role” and director John Robertson handles the story with impeccable sensitivity. One Man’s Journey is one of six RKO films of the 1930s previously thought "lost" but rediscovered and restored by TCM, and is now available for the first time on home video.
