On Borrowed Time

The Great Broadway Stage Hit Reaches The Screen

After young Pud is orphaned, he is left in the care of his aged grandparents, and he and his grandfather become inseparable. Gramps worries about Pud's future and is wary of a scheming relative who wants custody. When Mr. Brink, an agent of Death, arrives to take Gramps to "the land where the woodbine twineth," Gramps uses trickery to confine Mr. Brink—and Death itself—in a large apple tree, buying time to resolve Pud's future.
