Goodbye, Franklin High is a 1978 American film starring Lane Caudell, Julie Adams, Darby Hinton, Ann Dusenberry, and William Windom. The film's tagline is: It seems like it's taken forever â but at last we're on our own!
Will Armer (Caudell) is a high-school athlete, who during his senior year, must deal with his girlfriend (Dusenberry) and parents (Adams and Windom) and make a difficult decision between the certainty of college or the possibility of a glamorous baseball career. Everyone associated with Will has a different opinion, making the final decision all the more dramatic.
The film was released theatrically in the United States by Cal-Am Artists in April 1978.
It was lauded by film critics upon its initial release, but prints no longer appear to be generally available, either on television or on video.
