The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

“"Tom, you might even be President some day . . . if they don't hang you first!"”

Tom Sawyer (Tommy Kelly) is a boy on the Mississippi who gets into more trouble than his Aunt Polly (May Robson) can keep up with. Norman Taurog, working in Technicolor, follows him and his friend Huckleberry Finn through pirate games, their own funeral, and a night in a graveyard where they see a murder. Under the pranks sits a plain question about whether a boy who lies and runs wild can still do what's right when it counts.
