Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Modern children love this movie
I watched this movie with my children, age 5 and 8, and they loved it. I've never seen them react to any other movie as they did to this one. They were kicking their feet with the pain of suspense, they were squealing with delight as good triumphs over bad, they laughed their heads off at the jokes and gags, they were crying out to the characters to watch out for this bad guy and that bad guy, they felt Buckwheat's hungry stomach. If you're tired of the contemporary Disney trash and television cartoon junk, I recommend this movie. It's definitely NOT PC, it's a product of American society in 1936, but it's clearly child-friendly in my opinion. Enjoy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - good family fun
I saw this movie with some friends of mine and we could not stop laughing! It is such a wholesome fun movie. For anyone who likes old movies, this is definetly one to own. Good for all ages. B&W and full of heart

Paul Lukas gives a vibrant performance as a husband of German descent trying to promote peace during WWII. Although the film is most likely better than the stage play, it still is a little too Broadwayish and not always lifelike. Bette Davis is surprisingly only mediocre here.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - OF MAGNOLIAS AND INTRIGUE
This was the first Hollywood film to go deeply into the fundamental nature of fascism. The magnificence of Lillian Hellman's drama lies in the fortitude and compassion of her leading characters: Paul Lukas won the AA for best actor in 1943 for his role of Kurt Muller, the hero. As Sara Muller, Bette Davis gives a sincere (yet rather colourless) performance in a rather untypical role as the selfless wife. It is obvious that this movie is dominated by the great performance of Lukas; Davis subdues herself to the secondary role almost with an air of gratitude for being able (at last) to be uncomplicatedly decent and admirable. Quiet loyalty and restrained heroism do not furnish many outlets for histrionics and Bette was artist enough not to throw in any extra bits of it prove that she was one of the stars. Lucile Watson is outstanding as Fanny; she is at once larger than life and yet completely believable (she played the role on stage) Fanny says to her daughter (Davis), seeing her for ...
