Most of these reviews are older now. But this is one movie that should not be forgotten. I disagree it's dated and somewhat stiff if you take it for what it is. Highly recommended!
Wonderful story of the trials and hardships of a country doctor and the sacrifices he made. It was filmed during the Great Depression as several of Lionel's films were. I am thinking his calm presence and great acting was a comfort to the audiences then. It takes place around 1910 and progresses through the next 30 years. Very cleverly done and I think skilled direction for an early film.
Lionel is always a joy to watch! Whenever he is in a movie I know we are in for a treat! One of the best actors ever! Yet it's not like he's acting at all at times. Great supporting cast too. I enjoyed him and Mae Robson together. Maybe a little sentimental but so what!
