Come Next Spring is a 1956 American Trucolor drama film directed by R. G. Springsteen starring Ann Sheridan, Steve Cochran, Walter Brennan, Sherry Jackson and Richard Eyer.
The theme song "Come Next Spring" was written by Lenny Adelson and performed by Tony Bennett. It was later covered by Scott Walker on his 1968 album Scott 2. Much of Max Steiner's score was reused from Sergeant York.
Production
Steve Cochran formed his own production company, Robert Alexander Productions after his actual first two names. Come Next Spring was his first film, written by Cochran's friend Montgomery Pittman and featuring Pittman's stepdaughter Sherry Jackson. Filmed on Sacramento locations, Republic promised Cochran an "A Picture" release but released it as the lower half of a double feature.[1]
