The O. Henry Playhouse - The Complete Series | Ep. 06, Fog in Santone

O. Henry relates the story about a man named Carter with an incurable disease who has given up on living. But when Carter later travels to Texas to forget and be forgotten, he finds solace when in an equally disillusioned woman. The O. Henry Playhouse is a 1957 single season, 39-episode TV series. O. Henry (William Sydney Porter) is considered one of America's greatest writers of short stories. His writings are laced with humor and irony and often end with a sly twist ending. Veteran character actor Thomas Mitchell stars in each episode as writer O. Henry himself as he relates his stories to his publisher, his housekeeper, a barber, a bartender, or the cop on the beat. In some episodes, O. Henry meets his characters as he discovers firsthand the story he will later write. This unique storytelling method gives great insight into the famous author's creative process.
