Summary Outline
Based on Catherine Marshall's novel Christy and the follow-up of the TV series Christy, this PAX Television adaptation features Lauren Lee Smith as the 19-year-old schoolteacher who flounders and perseveres in an isolated mountain community in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of Tennessee's Great Smoky Mountains, this film begins with an elderly Christy (played by Sheila Moore) returning to the long-abandoned mission where she once taught. It premiered on the Pax TV network in the US on November 19, 2000.
Developed for television by executive producer Tom Blomquist the film was the first of three Christy movies to continue and resolve the storylines presented in the original CBS series and the novel. Return To Cutter Gap re-established the themes and characters of the previous Christy productions for longtime fans and newcomers, alike.

Famous quotes containing the words summary and/or outline:
“I have simplified my politics into an utter detestation of all existing governments; and, as it is the shortest and most agreeable and summary feeling imaginable, the first moment of an universal republic would convert me into an advocate for single and uncontradicted despotism. The fact is, riches are power, and poverty is slavery all over the earth, and one sort of establishment is no better, nor worse, for a people than another.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“The beginning of an acquaintance whether with persons or things is to get a definite outline of our ignorance.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
