About The Higgler
Harvey Whitlow has been back from World War I for a year, and he's been having a hard time making a go of it. Keith Drinkell, as the peddler of farm products (called a "higgler" in England), is married to Jane Carr in a one-hour drama, "The Higgler," on the Masterpiece Theater.
Directed by Richard Martin, The Higgler leans on a strong ensemble — Keith Drinkel, Mary Wimbush, Jane Carr — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1973.
