Martin Scorsese Presents REPUBLIC REDISCOVERED—over 20 rarely seen films from the storied Republic Pictures library, restored and remastered by Paramount and personally curated by Martin Scorsese. In Come Next Spring a recovering alcoholic returns to the family he left behind, after a 12-year absence, and vows to win their hearts again. Tired of playing psychotic gangsters for Warner Bros., actor Steve Cochran started his own independent production company with the hope of tackling ambitious fare like this rural drama of redemption. The film eventually landed at Republic, masterfully directed by R.G. Springsteen.
