And he admires her sinful, scarlet dress: "Are you all dressed up for a hog killing?" But when he realizes she wantshimto escort her to the Olympus Ball in a red dress to arouse Pres' jealousy (a symbol of her sexual recklessness), he declines, claiming that Southern manners wouldn't allow it:Buck: You had a set-to with Pres?Julie: Oh, I'd rather not discuss it.The sprawling post-war Technicolored spectacle followed the Lone Star State's remarkable transition over the years from the hard-work of agrarian cattle-ranching to oil-industry production.
