Rosasharn breastfeeding a starving man
Imagine they actually did that ending? That would be pretty wild to see. Even today that would be crazy to film something like that.
The novel's original ending was far too controversial to be even considered for a film in 1940. It involved Rose-of-Sharon Rivers (Dorris Bowdon) giving birth to a stillborn baby and then offering her milk-filled breasts to a starving man, dying in a barn.share
