The tribute to the film, based on Grace Metalious's controversial best-seller (as well as the inspiration for a sequel and a long-running TV series). The dark secrets, trials, and tribulations of members of a small community in New England were hugely successful at the box office. "Peyton Place" was nominated for nine Oscars and helped prolong Lana Turner's career into the late 1960s. Shot on location in Camden, Maine as well as on the Fox studio lot, it has wonderful cinematography and performances, and Franz Waxman's score is fantastic.
