Absolutely adorable so many valuable priceless life lessons! I wish it was on the syllabus of every freshman taking a business course! #funfabulous ☆☆☆☆☆
Thanks Pizza Fix, I love Andy Clyde, what a good actor, have watched him throughout my life, and the many parts he played throughout his acting career, from the Real McCoys, to Gunsmoke. and everything in between. he was quite the guy, and I love the old fella. Thanks again Pizza Fix for another good movie, you always deliver the best !
Thanks for sharing this pizza. So poignant knowing they were in the depths of the Great Depression when they made this. It must have given the audience a bit of respite. Such homely down to earth writing, story and acting. Thanks again!
I just LOVE these old B&W movies. You'll read this in the comments on every old film from the 30s through the 50s, but that's because it's so true: NOTHING coming out of hollywood today can begin to offer as much pure entertainment!
Originally released in November 1936. Roland Reed, who directed this film, later became a prolific producer of TV programs in the 1950's {"TROUBLE WITH FATHER", "MY LITTLE MARGIE", "ROCKY JONES- SPACE RANGER", et. al.}.
One of the best b/w movies Ive ever watched. I was entertained plus I came away validating what I already know to be true. Second to Christ, the family is number one and making sure that family values are instilled that will hold out the ride through the tides of ups and downs: love and loyalty, respect for elders and siblings, self control over materialism, and team play to share the burdens equally until the problem is overcome. Being SELF- SERVING, and SELF PROMOTION are true family killjoys.
Relateable Ending... Not only is financial 'depression' relieved by getting yourself up, out and on to your job, so then mental depression will subside. Enjoyable romp through life from 'Hollywood' Producers perspective... What is the difference from Now to Then? My guess would be to say, "Not a lot."
Yeah Mark Twain was quite a man. He could be serious, but most of the time quite funny. Very humorous . I would have liked to have met him. Samuel Clemons aka Mark Twain. He spent most his life on the riverbanks, and cruising up & down the river on the paddle, steamboats . Twain, was the measurement of how deep the water was. The measurement of depth. That's how he acquired the name Twain . He was a grand writer. Tom Sawyer ,Huckleberry Finn ,and so many other tales. He once said the most important time in your life, is when you are born, and then finding out the reason why?
Good ole' honest work that may not be so honest said Willy. The fake business swindles of the Great Depression and a cameo appearance by Humphrey Bogart as a chauffeur 57:30.
I hate when I see a movie I like the father that works then comes home and goes to the lodge and all the kids grown up, but the movie begins to go south and you see two swindlers a new one Lodge member which he really isn't he's there trying to sell phony shares/ stocks that aren't worth anything just like the boyfriend that sees auras around her mom But I bet you the father's friend at the lodge got screwed and he doesn't even know it yet but thanks for the movie I enjoyed the beginning half
Fifteen minutes in and it's just been bickering between spoiled brats. Then a con man shows up at the door. I hope he takes them for every penny, but I'm not going to watch any more.
This movie indirectly focuses the grandfather as the hero.This character instead of guiding his grandchildren taunts them & try to make them understand that earning money by work is the only important thing in the world. This rude old man supports drinking, smoking & hates refined behaviour. The movie through the character of this uncultured, alcoholic & to some extent demonicly materialistic grandfather has opposed & insulted spirituality, performing arts & culturedness. Though the movie conveys few positive things too, in general encourages hollow, stupid & evil philosophy. A movie is like a book and a bad book can harm the society deeply. Unfortunately, many of the movies instead of effecting as a nice book rather affects as a cheap circus. A beam of light in darkness, there are few high-grade movies too, one of the brightest example is A Christmas Carroll.
Why? The hero of that book was a drunken playboy materialistic ghost and won't even talk about Charles Dickens.Did you know that 2 decades after this movie was made Coca-cola had its name because the main ingredient was cocaine? And Mark Twain would be very unrefined to you, Right? People who work to earn their money are so 'uncultured' and 'unrefined', right? And, by the way, the brain grows from back to front and the frontal cortex which contains impulse control, most short-term memory, morals, amd executive decision making is not present until age 26. So, grampa's method of taunting them is what works for people without a frontal cortex. As for tobacco, it is the first intelligence drug and is the main ingredient is high dollar dementia drugs like Namenda-the tobacco stops the shrinking of the brain and binds together the enzymes that travel from the stomach and mutate in the bloodstream and start 'eating the brain'-tobacco stops it. If you visit a mental institution you will see people chain smoking as it relieves the symptoms of biologically-based mental illness. Yes, smoke is bad for you but I don't believe the cigar smoke was as bad as the smoke and destruction caused by bombs and such that were happening in world war II when this movie was filmed. In fact, those who were not fighting the war were working their assess off to provide for their families while waiting for their allotment and I imagine those serving in world war II would have prefered to have jobs rather than being blown to bits. Grampa is materialistic? Don't think so and I imagine this movie would have been an escape for those who saw it in WW II-but then, people then were not as 'refined' as you are. By the way, what did the soldiers get to dull the pain when they were injured and had surgeries? If you guessed alcohol you would be correct.

One of my favorites whenever he pops up in a movie! Don't recall him on Gunsmoke, but he helped MAKE the 'Real McCoys'! Lovable old geezer!

Lucile Gleason, James Gleason's wife. See them together in the Judy Garland/Vincent Minelli movie, "The Clock", an excellent film in so many ways.
Simply wonderful.

Originally released in November 1936.
Roland Reed, who directed this film, later became a prolific producer of TV programs in the 1950's {"TROUBLE WITH FATHER", "MY LITTLE MARGIE", "ROCKY JONES- SPACE RANGER", et. al.}.
Fun old sentimental movie and still applicable to today's society.
Nice movie for family night. Thank you pizzaflix.
Lovely movie! Thank you.
Andy Clyde starred in Laurel and Hardy movies, as well as The Three Stooges. The man had a long acting career.
Great little story remember it as a play in high school theater class
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.

It was Mark Twain who said, a gold mine is a hole in the ground with a liar on top.
Yeah Mark Twain was quite a man. He could be serious, but most of the time quite funny. Very humorous . I would have liked to have met him. Samuel Clemons aka Mark Twain.

DXR thanks for pointing that out as I had missed it!
Lester Dorr. Looked like Bogart from the side but the voice was all wrong.
That wasn't Bogart.
Grand Harpoon, lol
Do NOT mess with the occult. 4:40
I hate when I see a movie I like the father that works then comes home and goes to the lodge and all the kids grown up, but the movie begins to go south and you see two swindlers
a new one Lodge member which he really isn't he's there trying to sell phony shares/ stocks that aren't worth anything just like the boyfriend that sees auras around her mom
But I bet you the father's friend at the lodge got screwed and he doesn't even know it yet
but thanks for the movie I enjoyed the beginning half
Hey Perki
👍😀
I. LIKE. THE. MOVIE. EXCEPT. THE. CHILD. DISREPECT. THE. GRANDPA. I. EAS. TO. RESPECT. ELDERS. ALWAYS
Fifteen minutes in and it's just been bickering between spoiled brats. Then a con man shows up at the door. I hope he takes them for every penny, but I'm not going to watch any more.
Well you missed the spaceship. Threw the whole family for a loop. What a plot twist!
