Hello :D This story will take your heart by surprise, wrapping itself around you like a warm blanket...
Better than anything on cable, this Classic is wonderfully family-friendly, with LOVE and HOPE weaved throughout. You'll be glad you took the time to watch it :D
It is apparent, once (or more) watched, why this film was adapted from a serialized novel which appeared in The Saturday Evening Post from February 26 to March 26, 1938!
This Classic movie has something for everyone! (Including an amazing 1938 gorgeous Prototype Car!**)
Not to give too much away, this movie's a very touching Depression-Era story that is one of my all-time favorites! (I've added a tad more info on this movie below ;)
**So, are you a Classic Car enthusiast? Well, get ready to be introduced to a very special car! It's a beauty--and so advanced for the late 1930s! Watch for other futuristic inventions in this movie, as well!
A tiny story hint?
As a movie poster from UA put it very well, "Charming to Meet...Expensive To Know!" This loving family of four find they're at the end of their finances, and, ideas for grifting their way from one beautiful (wealthy) world-destination to another. Then, a perfect "grift" almost falls into their laps. But, instead of "taking" from another "mark", they fall in love with they're "target". Through this wonderful, unexpected encounter, they are tested and tried, learning very valuable life-lessons which we share in as we watch this memorable Classic Movie.

I've been here for years, this is my only income since I've become unable to walk stand or sit for only handfuls of minutes at a time due to congenital spinal deformities worsening over time, regardless of two failed hideous surgeries implanting hardware through front and back. So the spinal collapse onto the big nerves down to my feet are severely damaged. Your support, even just through watching the adds helps me! Thank you so much.
