Danke!
The constant change of the colors drives me nuts. I’d rather watch it in black and white. The colors are awful anyway. I doubt everything was gray.
This film is a great example for parents and Grand Parents alike to watch and learn what not to do. Children get taken or drown in pools etc, because of the irresponsible, stupid parents leaving their children unattended.
Me encanta!! Si con un poco de IA podría agregar colores pero dejar algunas cosas. Aseguro que volveremos por el gusto vintage.
A lovely heart warming film, Thank you,
Me encantó! Tuvo sus escenas comicas!😂
😊
What a ridiculous movie. I want my 1hr and 20 mins back.
Looks too new. Can’t watch it
I would have loved a baby buggy like that💙
Very simple and flat story with misogynistic parts! 🫤
not gonna lie i'm crying at the ending.
The mother-in-law was Glenda, the good witch in Wizard of Oz
Pôxa , devia ser dublado …
I won’t watch colourised version of black and white movies!
Film delizioso che lascia sorridenti e sereni! Grazie
Life was so much simpler. Men were men and women were women. Each knew their role in life and the family had time to spend together.
I don’t know why…. But this movie makes me happy… gotta luv Spencer Tracy….,
This makes soooo happy! I luv Elizabeth Taylor…. Hav many special framed pictures of her in her youth and as a young adult star ; she was too beautiful and kind for this world; there wi never b another “Liz”…. She is so missed….😢
Great movie but made with early colorization techniques on top of a black and white original,
Joan Bennett was a great partner with Tracy. She was the second best, I think, candidate in the screen tests 4 Scarlett 0'Hara. Much better than Goddard or the others.
What’s amazing is they had pretty much all our advanced gadgets, except that today they are digital, hackable, and less durable.
I wish they wouldn't colour the film….. at times skin on Joan Bennett's arms is grey to match her dress. The suits changed from blue, to grey to brown in one scene alone. Awful.
Please leave the black and white films in Black and White!
Gracias YouTube !
Amo las películas clásicas porque me entretuvieron durante mi niñez , adolescencia y gran parte de mi juventud. Hoy a mis 83 años me siguen deleitando.
Einfach köstlich dieser Film, ich konnte mal wieder herzlich lachen.
Mind the words Kay says at 34:42 and Dr. Nordell at 35:59. Modern brain research has prooven the Nordells of the past were right. Decades of nationwide child neglect have not been without consequences. Today having psychological problems and womenomics are "normal" in the US. We could have known better, but we lost 70 years and we will loose many decades to come before we realize what we did and do to our children.
What a delightful picture! So funny! I've never seen Father of the Bride, which everyone says is superior, but this was terrific: what a great actor Tracy was!

This movie was hilarious!! They don't make movies like they did back then. Great acting too! ♥️😂
Poor baby in the crying scene if you look closely they left the boys head bouncing backwards little bit when they want to cry for the scene.. brutal but effective..
