  1. I grew up in rural America surrounded by family members in a small mountain village. Everything was tight knit, like we all lied with the Cleaver's- Ward, June and the boys! I can see now our speech patterns were about 25 years late because everything was swell!! listen at 42:50….."in the end, It'll all be JAKE!" This didn't change until the mid 60's when I became mired in TEEN-DOM.

  2. Another gem by Frank Borzage, who not only won an Academy Award for Directing this film but in 1927 won the very first Academy Award for Directing. He was a master of this genre — two young people in love who face adversity in the real world and over all odds find happiness in the end. Audiences loved it then and now.

  3. The picture and sound quality is so good that it looks 30 years younger than it is. Make a comparison with To Kill a Mockingbird (1962) for example. I reckon that this movie has been digitally restored with the help of 2K or 4K digital motion picture film scanners and computer programs to get rid of the scratches, "blobs" and excessive film grain.

  4. what kind of a woman, she wants to live big and a husband on her side all time how is he gonna make money's wonder why do some women reason like kids

  5. It is a tender movie. The main characters were quite annoying whenever they assumed rather than communicate truthfully with each. Not too surprising for the times. Fine performances and production. Oscar nomination for Best Picture. The film quality has been nicely preserved. Borzage won Best Director. A worthwhile look at a slice of Americana for 1930s film fans. Enjoy!
