Radio review - Ford Theatre - "Ah, Wilderness" (1947) ***

Accomplished version of Eugene O'Neill's autobiographical comedy, without too much false sentimentality or aw-shuckness that can be done with this. It's picnic day on the fourth of July, a young man is in love but tempted by a cigarette smoking easy woman, there is some nice serious stuff when a woman talks about being in love with an alcoholic, no one can talk about sex properly.
