A pleasant little family film
18 April 2023
Although some may argue that the best part of this film is the frequently used song "Give Me the Simple Life," I found it to be relaxing and charming.

When viewing any film like this, I believe it's important to remember that it was released after our nation had endured a decade of depression followed by 4 years of the horror of WWII. This quiet little film provided relief from the stress of those traumatic years, and a glimmer of hope for the future.

The entire cast was down home friendly and comfortable to watch. The color photography is warm and welcoming, and the background score provides the appropriate mood for each scene and some hope for the future.

I watched it on Classic Reel one chilly Spring morning and enjoyed every minute.
