CROTON'S FAY BAINTER IN "OUR TOWN", THE 1940 FILM

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Did you know that Croton's Fay Bainter starred in the 1940 film, OUR TOWN....


The 1940 American drama romance film was an adaptation of the play of the same name by Thornton Wilder.

So when we came across these scrapbook pages for the film at the Peekskill Flea Market last spring, we just had to clean them up for your enjoyment.

The film starred Martha Scott as Emily Webb and William Holden as George Gibbs. The cast also included Fay Bainter as Mrs. Julia Gibbs , Beulah Bondi, Thomas Mitchell, Guy Kibbee and Frank Craven. It was directed by Sam Wood.
