+ Scattergood Baines is a 1941 American comedy-drama film. Guy Kibbee plays the title character. The plot has him choosing the small New England town of Cold River to settle down in, twenty years ago, and his present-day outmaneuvering the townspeople both when it comes to large matters (ownership of the local railroad) and small (the pretty new schoolteacher's hair). The homespun but canny Baines was originally created by popular writer Clarence Budington Kelland in stories for The Saturday Evening Post, and a radio version ran from 1938 through 1950.-WikiPedia Click here to read more about Scattergood Baines
