This Property Is Condemned is a 1966 film starring Natalie Wood, Robert Redford, Kate Reid, Charles Bronson and Mary Badham and directed by Sydney Pollack. The screenplay was written by Francis Ford Coppola, Fred Coe and Edith Sommer. The story was suggested by the 1946 one-act play of the same name by Tennessee Williams.
The depression-era story takes place in the fictional Mississippi town of Dodson. Owen Legate (Robert Redford) comes to town to fire many of the local rail yard employees. Natalie Wood plays Alva Starr, a pretty town flirt who finds herself stuck in this small town and very much attracted to the handsome stranger.
