What happens

All the Fine Young Cannibals is a 1960 American drama film directed by Michael Anderson, starring Robert Wagner, Natalie Wood, Susan Kohner, George Hamilton, and Pearl Bailey. Hamilton said that the film "combined Southern Gothic with a biopic of jazzman Chet Baker." It was loosely based on The Bixby Girls, a 1957 novel by Rosamond Marshall that was set in the World War I era. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
