    Even success hasn't made Samuel Clemens (James Garner) a happy man. Instead of devoting his talent to "serious matters" he's wasted them on yarns - as Mark Twain. Now, asked to speak to Bryn Mawr's graduating class of 1891, he's filled with dread. His daughter Susy is a student and he hopes to make her proud.
