Whoever did casting on this deserved an Oscar! Every single one was perfect!
Thank you! These old movies are entertainment in its most literal sense. After watching I feel like I've been entertained.
Love these old movies,so down to earth!
This film was a lot of fun to watch! Not all movies have to be great "art" to be enjoyable. Good writing (funny and witty without being "belly-laugh" or slapstick), characters that we can care about (and good character roles, too), good acting, good direction, just long enough without being too long or tedious - all of these add up to a very good movie, which was well worth the time which I spent in the viewing.
Thank you very much for sharing so many of these little treasures from an era when movies truly were MOVIES. I'd sooner spend time watching these films than much of the drek that Hollywood churns out these days. (Yes, there are still good films being made, in Hollywood and elsewhere - but I would say that I can count the number of well-worth-viewing movies made each year nowadays on the fingers of one or both of my hands.)
I agree with you 100%
jmccracken1963 couldn't agree more. Lovely girl, good guy, everything to love. Even the band playing When Johnny comes Marching Home.
me too i agree. and i only have 3 fingers on one hand.
It is so nice to know PizzaFlix will offer truly entertaining films and programs. They are refreshing from trash of the 21st century. I'll admit they also make me feel young again.
Hi Mike 🍕Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you 🍕
Thoroughly enjoyable. It is like good medicine. Thanks for uploading!
They don't make em like this anymore. Too bad. Loved it. Thanks for posting!
You know I was wondering why I'd been so stressed lately and I realised it's because I hadn't been relaxing watching these movies,thanks again pizzaflix
'John Wayne's actual name was Marion.
My Grandmother went to Glendale High School when he was Captain of the football team, just as he was getting acting jobs and working up the 'John Wayne' persona based on his mentor, Yakima Canutt. I have an old GHS annual of hers wherein 'Jack Wayne' and 'John Wayne' are both signed over the printed Marion Morrison photo captions.
Yakima Canutt was an actor and director in early westerns, as well as a rodeo star. Genuine cowboy, turned actor!
@@DavidRice111 Yes, indeed.
Canutt pioneered many of the stunts which became standards of the industry.
What a great little black and white film, so much fun , very enjoyable and loved the ending. I'm glad she went with Marian, the hero. Thank you for sharing.
@Kim A ,
Yes; what a fickle young woman.
So easily swayed by "the crowd" - a young woman w/ a brain paper thin. She showed no signs of loyalty to anything or anyone.
A very distasteful character.
Great movie..love the wholesome comments ❣
Aww, that was really sweet and a lot of fun to watch! I can't get enough of those old clothes and cars! Thanks! 🌈🌈🌈
Exceptional. . Loved the whole plot. . Great acting and writers. . Thank you ever so much in posting. 😍😍😍
what a great script, the dialogue is over the moon. you can tell the cast is having a ball here. really enjoyable film!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wonderful just wonderful....thank you so much I enjoyed every minute!
What a fun movie! Beats by a long shot a modern multimillion extravaganza Hollywood cranks out today. Kay Aldridge is stunningly beautiful. Nancy June Robinson is hilarious. Why would anyone downvote this movie?
Dave O’Brien is the same actor who starred in the “Pete Smith Specialties” short films. Very funny but informative. Thanks for posting!
And, Dave O'Brien was fuuunny. This is a great film with a good, comical story to carry it.
Phantom of 42nd street!
Yep~ I loved those “Pete Smith Specialties”!
"What are you in here for?" "Wife beating." "Your own?????" 🤣
2nd time watching this fine movie. Once you look under the hollywood rah rah rah, it's a wonderful story about misunderstandings and how love conquers all. And young Patricia Hammond (played by Nancy June Robinson) was such a natural. How funny that when the mother finally figures out what to say to her as a retort, the film glitches and we don't get to hear it - not even the subtitle picked it up. I read about the low-budget aspect of this studio, but I found the plot/writing/storyline all to be as fine as any other in this time period, and better than most. 7.6/10 I'd give it if anyone asked. I really enjoy the repartee with the old farmer sitting on the fence ('crow bait', lol) Thanks again PizzaFlix - you da' PizzaMan! 💖 🇨🇦

Very cute and funny movie! Thank for a fun evening....even Mrs Bennet and her comic hysteria was in it!
OMG!!! Talk about feel-good! I fell GOOD from having watched this movie. I adored the actors. I loved the script. I know it was not totally slick -- but it was GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX! Please subscribe. May the Sauce be with you.
Well said. Never judge a book solely by its cover - and we all do it don't we, more's the pity. I felt really good after watching this too...Sgt York had the same feeling about it too. Something about humble heroes - people who, given the choice, behaved nobly in the face of adversity - and made us ALL the better for their actions. Hoo-rah!
Those two up on that fence and the faces that they are making I am laughing myself silly
Enjoy seeing older autos. Liked the way people dressed. Enjoyed story.,Thank you.
Super romantic comedy & far from CORNY !
In 1945 our country needed all he humor and love it could get !
To all our military members then & now THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE !
To all lovers then & now...hip hip hooray ! PASS IT ON !
That was so funny!!! Love it!! I love old movies, there’s nothing better
Thank you.
❤🎉 Thank you, Pizza, for another great movie 🎉❤
They need to start making them like this again. Come on, Hollywood, stop being holly weird!!!
45:39 - _"If we don't ignore what's happened, we can't expect the public to do it",_ says the politician of 1945.
The acorns don't fall far from the tree..
What a great movie thumbs up all the way 😊
A delightful film!
Block the front tire girly so the car won't roll off the jack! Lol
This is the 3rd or 4th time I have watched this movie.
What did the mother finally figure out to tell Pat?!? Cute movie!!
What a great movie with a totally feel good ending they don't make them like this anymore 😉
Thank you❤️❤️❤️
...just what the doctor ordered...fab..🇬🇧
She said "You cost me a pair of nylons"Lmao!!!😂😂😂
They had rationing back then....nylons were a luxury item.
She said she wouldn't be able to get another pair.
The prospective politician tried to ruin a war hero....this guy reminds me of a certain FBI director...
Its amazing that you don't even know the person who's been with you for years because you are holding on to old wounds.
An intriguing comment Little Clay. And PTSD will do that - and we ALL suffer from it. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - starts when you are born and shot out into a cold world. And if you're a sensitive little boy-child, well may God protect you because the world won't.
A war hero ( Dave O’Brien) returns home following a medical discharge and ends up with a young woman (Kay Aldridge) speeding away her wedding day in her fiancé’s car.seeing the soldier,she gives him a ride and explains her problem, things get tricky when the cops capture them and accuse the soldier of desertion! The movie 🎥 veers from comedy to drama before the hero makes up and saved the situation from getting worse! Dave O’Brien is good as the soldier and Kay Aldridge as the spoiled but sensible woman and the flick is good at the end! ❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
A very enjoyable movie..!!
"Thought I would go over my campaign speech and add a few more promises.." Only technology changes.
Came back to watch again, 5 months later & looks like I'm still walking alone. (in the comment section)
naw brother your never alone when in the post area it's a fun an funny class older the better . yep a hot car why not. .an don't call me chief. oh alright chief I mean boss. that's 🌽 corn...
Bellissimo 👍👍👍👍👍😘🌷🌹🌺
Great
Kay Aldridge was a beautiful woman.
So was my mother
Fabulous!
Good ol' Dave O'Brien.
Great...loved it !
O'Brien--the immortal crazy eyes from "Reefer Madness".
OMG! You're right
@@aaronharris2911also the devil bat! 😮😮😮😮
Wow, he came back from the gas station with the gas in a 1 gallon glass jug, which he tosses to the side of the road when he empties it.
That was then and it was a movie (make believe) but today it's a $1,000 fine (California).
I love old movies but that is the big thing that I don't like about them. Everything gets tossed aside or in the ocean with no thought of what they are doing, the damage they are causing and this is what so many people grew up with, thinking it was just fine to do that. Now look at the mess we have in this beautiful land of ours. I get angry at parade goes when children and even adults will unwrap their candy and drop the wrapper instead of waiting until they dispose of it properly. I'm not even a tree hugger but I do believe we need to take care of what we have and this world is the only one we have.
@Jim Stark Maybe you've made too much out of my single sentence.
Litterers WILL litter. Even fake litterererererers. Awg!
The farmer probably picked it up and used it to brew some beer.
Nice movie
Wasn't he the same guy who starred in "Reefer Madness"?
The wild eyed piano player who was driven mad by the devil weed.
46:23 😅 why is Patricia sitting like that? Looks like she wants to give everyone a piece of her precocious mind
Awesome
Good movie
A bit of fun, the film cheered me up.
They certainly don’t make them like that anymore
Better candles then than my lightbulb now.
So glad the lowly soldier rose in status enough to be worthy of the princess. And in a couple of months, once the fame dies down, she can go back to the mansion. A love story.
You old cynic, lol! I don't see that, he was too feisty to just let the glow fade away - he was a do'er, and I'm sure he got out and did! Fire Chief then Mayor 🙂
NOT BAD!!!!!! THANKS 5 MILL UPLOADER
Sorry, I haven't watched the movie yet, but from the description provided this is somewhat similar to at least 2 movies, one of which starred Jack Lemmon....and I think it was June Allyson.
They travel from one coast to another and at one point, at about the halfway mark, they run out of money.
I will watch this to see if there are any similarities.
BTW, don't get me wrong, I love these old movies as a glimpse into what the world was like for my parents and grandparents. And as a "bonus" this one has actors that I have never seen or heard of before.
Wow those jacks been around for a very long time
This was uploaded nearly exactly 6 yrs ago (today is 14. Aug. 2019)
"nearly exactly"??
Why not throw it a party and invite other Poverty Row films to "mingle?" Be aware that some will be in pretty bad shape..you know with walkers and wheelchairs.
You'll never comment alone.
+D Storm ditto
good film. fun and more
A delightful move. Thanks for the upload.
@ 1:03:10 the marching band in the background music has flutes & piccolos playing but none in the marching band marching in their front yard! Funny! I could hear them [I being a flutist myself] but I could NOT find them on the screen!
~ Peace
wow!Love
That was a carney movie, strictly 🌽 hehe hehe 3 ⭐️🌟🌟
What did the mother saying say to the daughter that finally made her cry?
It must have been good. They clipped it out. My guess is "bastard".
@@Meinstein my guess is "+itch'"
@@mortimerzilch2608 Yes, that word if far more likely. Thanks.
funny indeed "corny!" as the little girl says thanks
It's a swell town!
Tom I am here too!
Wow
A man should walk alone if he intends to beat up his woman for every past disappointment he has ever h ad with any woman. No woman should have to put up with another person's stupid, mindless, battles. He's a man that is looking for an argument everyday. He wants to fight, even though the fight is with himself.
Great little movie. Thanks for the upload. V
this is a gabby type flick but I'll sit back an enjoy it. timeless classic. she hates me she likes me. if she's confused then what is he. the little girl stay away from the radio it I'll ruin your brain. an the fortune hunter took the money an ran. alvin is corny he needs a thrashing.
Charming little movie! I guess I’m the only one bothered by the casting of Wilhelmina. I think Evelyn Venable would have been much more convincing as a sheltered, timid and conflicted woman trying to break free. Add Robert Young and this would have been a classic! ;)
Hmmm, Evelyn Venable was 18 years older than Kay Aldridge so I don't that would've create sparks like Marion and Willie did. And Robert Young - not tough enough. When the fisticuffs with old fuddy-duddy ensue, Dave O'Brien filled the bill for me. But, I respect your opinion. Glad you like it.
😊❤
9:30
Litter bug.
This is as much fun as a roach film
Funny
If that child says corny one more time I'll scream!
Good Entertainment; ... Is there a "Full UNCENSORED AUDIO = @1:10:02" I Want to KNOW what the Mother CALLED her Bratty Daughter ... Just Say'n “🍺Dilly Dilly”❗
💚🙏😇🙏💚
wth... what did the mother call the little girl? it skipped right over it. @$$!#
KydWyz I know. I was so bummed!
yeah!!! what the hell?!?!?!?!?
i've rerun that part several times & still can't make it out...
KydWyz if it as approx. minute 44ish, the mother called the kid a pest.
bitch
Out of the two,
I'll go with "pest"
👍🏽⭐️⭐️💜💛💜⭐️⭐️👍🏽
_You'll be happier on a rock pile with a pick._
Corny but amusing.

Plainfield? hahahahahah
44:44 Ever hear this, I haven’t.
A very nice print for a PRC. For more on this very interesting star see imdb.to/2CH50Dw . As usual Walter Catlett steals scenes (and movies). The music here is a bit overwrought and more suitable for a cartoon. Why begin a romantic comedy with "The Farmer in the Dell" anyway? Oh, right, Walter Catlett!!
He just wants a woman to verbally beat up on, and publicly humiliate, but he needs to make it look legit....that's why he has everyone to start petty arguments with me.....instead of being the mature one. No one wonder the stars keep viewing him as a child. Emm makes sense now.
My, my! Patricia had it right! This was the CORNIEST movie I have ever watched!!
I kept thinking, "Ok, this has got to get better!" so I kept watching it.😞😒
But it never did. In my humble opinion, it just kept getting worse & CORNIER!!
A big to-do over a Corporal??
Since when has a Corporal ever been a hero??
Yeah, you had to rise above that. I think that was to show that he was just an average joe who stepped up when he had to did the nasty deeds required, but didn't want anyone to know. That whole sub-plot was critical to the success of the storyline and the Grande Finale.
it's propaganda. as per usual.
This plot is stolen and loosely copied from The Philadelphia Story.
Either you watched a different movie or a different Philadelphia Story that I saw.
@Kimberly Even that's a stretch (that I can't make!).
This movie is idiotic. Do not waste your time.
@Glennsten Bergkvist Perhaps because the masses are asses?
It is a farce.
It is intended to be 'idiotic', hence the comedy.
nice dame. real nice. a real armful. no birth control pills in her...her womb is alive...the real deal, no sex doll.
mortimer zilch you’re a pig
What the heck ???
Not in her womb?..
Oh for goodness sake!
