Thanks for any help. You're not imagining things. THE PEOPLE was a made-for-tv movie, shown on ABC back in 1971. The screenplay was by James M. Miller, and it was indeed based on Zenna Henderson's PILGRIMAGE: THE BOOK OF THE PEOPLE. The director was John Korty, and the executive producer was, believe it or not, Francis Ford Coppola. I'm surprised that you don't remember any of the cast, considering that the star of the movie was William Shatner. Two other "name" actors in the cast were Dan O'Herlihy and Kim Darby. --- jayembee (Jerry Boyajian, DEC, Maynard, MA) UUCP: {decvax|ihnp4|allegra|ucbvax|...}!decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-akov68!boyajian ARPA: boyajian%akov68.DEC@DECWRL.ARPA <"Filmography is my pastime">
