As Ever, Gordy

(3) 4-6 After steadying his life under the guardianship of his grandmother in 'Following My Own Footsteps', Gordy's world is again turned upside down when Grandma dies and he and his younger sister return to live in their hometown. Played against a well-rendered post-World War II setting, Gordy's recidivism into his previously wild ways is presented with emotional complexity, as is his love/hate relationship with a female classmate.
