I want to live in a world of people that enjoy movies like this. You guys are beautiful people! I'm not only enjoying this delightful film, but also all of your lovely comments. Have a great day, fellow old-film enthusiasts!❤️🎞
Delivery of papers on a bike, milk in a bottles… wow! Such memories of a child in the 60’s. I always did enjoy a good clean black and white movie! Thank you! 😊
Every Sunday I watch an old black and white movie on RU-vid. Just to destress and unwind. No horrible violence or gore ... just wholesome family entertainment from a simpler time. Thanks so much for uploading these! Cheers ✌
Every single night I fall asleep to one of these beautiful movies, my favourites are The Thin man, Someone to watch over.....Anything without music and gun shots:))))
I Remember Mama was her best film! A pure joy. I wish I had a mom like that growing up. Life With Father was great too. She sings and plays piano in that one. A really beautiful person.
All the old films are the best. No drugs, nudity, violence, prostitution. just wholesome movies you can watch with all the family, grandparents included. That's what a REAL film is. :)
Love these old movies. Too bad they don’t make this kind anymore. No vulgar language, no nudity, no violence and a story with a plot and humor. Please bring us some more, they’re just wonderful!
Black and white, charming house with a picket fence in a small town, an idyllic family, humor, a little drama, a “villain,” magic, and Irene Dunn...Seriously, my serotonin level is over the top! Thanks!
How wonderful it would be if Hollywood would make movies like this today. Unfortunately it seems it isn't just about money with Hollywood, it is more about radically changing society; and, ultimately, our entire way of life. I for one don't believe those changes are for the better.
Love love love these movies, I just wish Blacks weren’t able to live and experience the same things back then. But hey, we’re able to now and I’ll continue watching my beloved classics! God bless all
The movie industry needs to produce movies like this now in 2021. No bad language, no sex scenes, no violence, no witch craft. The movie industry would make money.
Agree completely. What they make these days is a load of rubbish and insulting to us. Today's movies offer no challenge or encouragement....these old movies are so good! And funny !
One of the best movies I've seen EVER!!! And I'm 58 yrs. old !!! LOL Such a fun, wholesome, fantastical movie !!! So glad I found this out of the blue !!! Simply magical !
I was born in 1961. This movie and movies like it, brings back all those who I've lost. And many wonderful memories, growing up. Memories I thought I'd lost? Not so! Same as the music. Missing my parents & my sister. But smiling just the same! Thank you ❤
Not sure I understand, how does being born in 1961 allow you to relate to 1951 ?(would have been made in that year). I can't imagine you have many memories before being 5 years old.
@MsMesem reruns, dear?! i had parents who introduced movies such as this one, to us kids. My entire childhood was filled with great memories. My children born in the 80's and 90's may relate in the same way as I described. I have a cabinet filled with well loved movies (1930's--)
@MsMesem My 1st memory was meeting Sonny and Cher - I was 4 years old. I remember the details as if it were yesterday! Right down to what Cher was wearing. To what my father said, as he was introducing my sister Trina and I to them at the Brown County Arena, Green Bay Wi.
@@terriaustill2211 Irene Dunne originally made so many great film roles that were later remade (8 times!) like: Showboat, My favorite Wife, (retitled to 'Somethings Got to Give/Move over Darling') Magnificent Obsession, Love Affair, Anna and the King of Siam She used to joke about her roles being 'Stolen'. I liked her 'Anna' better than Deborah Kerr or Jodie Foster
This is adorable! How charming, I am laughing and giggling, and it makes me feel so good. Such a gem in times like these when everything is different. But I love this old fashion goodness, humor, and charm.
I absolutely love this movie! Clever, heartwarming with a bit of the supernatural thrown in!! The acting in these timeless classics is so enjoyable to watch. And the childhood memories of growing up in Detroit and having fresh milk delivered are priceless! Thanks so much!! 👍😄💖✨🎆😍😘
19:09 " We can without a lot of things. But not our INTEGRITY and SELF-RESPECT. When I was a boy, a store clerk once gave me a dime too much change. I didn't tell the clerk. When I got home and told my Dad about it, he got mad and told me to walk more than a mile back to the store to return the dime.
Once when I was about 6 or 7 my sister & I walked to the grocery store to buy a few things for my mother & I wanted ice cream but didn't have enough money so I snuck away from my older sister & "borrowed " an ice cream bar & lagged behind her as usual on the way home & ate my ice cream. I can't remember how my mother found out but she did & I had to walk back to the store, apologize to the owner & pay for it out of money my mother didn't need to waste on ice cream. I learned a valuable lesson though & never "borrowed " anything again, lol. I don't know how I thought you could borrow ice cream & then pay it back.
Is it any coincidence that back then most families went to church every Sunday, and schools were not banned from saying the Lord's Prayer and teaching the Ten Commandments?
@@SciFiGirl007 well, I could have gone back to Richard Nixon's administration, a disgraced POTUS who at least had the dignity to resign. By using 2016 as the most recent and looks like record holder of corrupt officials, more of the 2016 administration was investigated, convicted, imprisoned than in Nixons era, which is saying A LOT. I can remember all the way back to the Eisenhower years, I had many to chose from but since the majority of readers only relate to presidents from this century, I still hold 2016 as the election that will go down in history as an abomination. People are thinking cheat, lie, hate, intolerance are normal attributes....I hope a progressive tolerant administration will initiate a shift to a kinder and inclusive country
What a well-made film. It was based on the short story "It Grows on Trees" by writers Leonard Praskins and Barney Slater. Thank you so much for posting it!
@@andyZ3500s Listening to Jimmy Smith's 'Foremost'. But thanks I'll check it out while the light is still over the horizon. Generally switch to good music after sundown, but never can I stop hearing Stanley T., Jimmy S. How's Fresno? Tombstone AZ. 🌵🌹
What a great Movie Irene Dunne fantastic Actor!!! 40’s & 50’s the best years!!! To live in we were happy & contented And had a lot of fun!!! This movie is the best!!! Keep husband in a fog!!! Thank You We would all believe Money grows on Trees!!!
I'm 63 and I remembered this smoothie from when I was a child. I have antenna TV that shows movies like this all the time for those of you with cable look up the channel positive TV. It has classics but it also has movies that are up today but has morals and good clean language. Lessons are learned and it teaches you how to deal with issues. Back in these days the morels of movies were just everyday life that was talk to you in school and in church. I love those movies of that day. We should have a class in schools with these movies.
My name is Peggy and I love these old movies 😍❤️😂😁 they are warm and wonderful I only wish family's were still like that when things were more simple and family oriented!!!
Such a cute and delightful movie. I like how the members of the family stick together while each stick to their own values. That is how Polly got her house renovated for free in the end.
This film reminds me of 'family' members we only see at funerals or weddings ... Real family are those persons who are in our lives come what may, year in and year out. ... The mother in this story missed her sons so much, yet they never thought to at least wish her well on her birthday, Mothers day or Christmas every year for so many years after leaving home
This was a wonderful, 'feel good' movie. I really enjoyed it and I ran across it at just the right time. Just what I needed. Thank you for sharing this wonderful film.
This was how we lived. We had everything we needed, but we couldn’t afford extras. If we wanted to go to the movies we had to wait until we had the money and we didn’t always have it! No one bought things on credit, it just wasn’t done. We got 50 cents a week allowance and that is what we used for anything “extra” like the movies. Movies cost 2.00 at the time, 10 cents for popcorn. So basically we saved all month for the movies and if we could waggle an extra 10 cents from our mom, we felt happy!
Spring, the big difference was as well nobody was expecting to be entertained as much as the average person does now. We children had routines, plenty of chores that we were held accountable to do & do properly. We brought books home, we had homework so our parents knew what we were learning. We so enjoyed movies and a restaurant because we did not do those all that much. Birthdays and Christmas were meaningful and high excitement because THAT was when we got gifts. We were very blessed growing up with the order, the work ethic, and the values we did.
I remember watching this movie decades ago. I specifically remember she was in the cabinet storing away the money and when winter came it all disappeared. This movie from time to time has come to my mind over all those years. I also remember those tin cans that came with cookies or chips in them.
I remember venders comeing through the neighborhood , Milk ,Bakery ,Good Humor ,Fresh Vegetables , even a man who sold Buster Brown and Tom McAnn shoes ,even Keds sneakers from his stationwagon . 😊 I love old movies like these ,simpler times pulling up pleasent memories.😊❤😊
Oh, thank you so much for posting this wonderful old movie. I remember seeing it on TV years ago and I just loved it so much. I especially love Irene Dunn…..Life with Father is another one of my favorite movies. Thank you!
Delightful movie. My dad taught me that " money doesn't grow on trees"....lol. A great lesson when I was a teen. I thank God that I am a good Seward Sith my finances/money💵💸💰
It's going to be impossible to earn money or have access to any money if they bring it the digital slavery they're working on, fiat money is backed by anything but digital will be much much worse.
Hi There. Thank You So Much For This Wonderful Movie. I Saw this Actress in a Film Called " Life With Father" it wad just as good as this Movie. I Watch it Every Month Or So. Its so funny and light hearted. I never saw this movie before. Im so delighted you posted it. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. You are so Good. 🤗⚘🤗⚘🤗⚘🤗⚘
Glad everyone had great viewing pleasure. One can't feel blue. These oldies are superior to what's made nowadays, in my opinion. Yes, times were different...but we get perspective!
This movie is really fun. After a day at night I just love to watch one of these old Hollywood gems! And then dream of living in that era indeed fascinating
I am wife of Jack n I saw this as a child with my mom and never forgot it. All good things in it! Great love,family and comedy. Love the ending as well!🏺🧞♂️
I remember seeing this movie when I was a very young boy. I have never seen it since nor remembered anything about the actors or the story line but I remember the trees. The memory of them came t mind many times over my young life. Yet when I saw the screen shot here and the title I knew instantly it was the same movie. Strange how the memory works!
I love this lady! Her innocence, wonder and awe at our world is just being gifted back to her!!! 😂😂😂 I want a money tree and a genie! If I believe......
What a delightfully witty film! I was chuckling all the way through! The scene where mother is complaining about her neighbour's idea of a smidgeon of butter being actually a full quarter pound of butter, was real funny! LoL! xxxx
How fun.!!! I love Irene Dunn. Wouldn't it be grandif money did gtow on trees?Just like in the movie it would sone how end in a free for all! I have never seen this before. Thoroughly enjoyed it. 😊
What a noble man Jim was ~ so selfless and generous with his Love for her. It made me cry. But I was happy for Rodney and for his mother and even for her new husband. What a movie!
Nicely developed plot with several surprises which pop up just when you think you know what will happen next ! Some of these actors and actresses have also appeared in televised series - I can't be the only one who recognizes "Granny" - And John Sleamish- the Bank President - It's Thurston Hall, who was another bank president later, Mr. Schuyler, the boss of Cosmo Topper ! It's thrilling every time one of these undiscovered Black and White gems shows up !
I found this movie by watching "The real McCoys" with Richard Creena I liked his acting ,so I looked up his other films on IMDB. Thanks for sharing this film.
Loved this oldie. ❤️ When days were simpler, life was more honest, and I walked away with a smile of yesterday. I remember milk in bottles being delivered to our home in the 60's here in NY. I wish I had one of those bottles today; memories 😢
Omg. I remember listening to this as a kid in bed . Lol I was supposed to be asleep I was about seven. I am now. Sixty four. I always remembered listening to this. Now I can watch it. Thank you so much for down loading it. Luv from canada
I remember another charming movie called Mr. 880 about an old gentleman who printed one dollar bills, but that movie is supposed to be a true story. It stars Edmond Gwenn and any movie with him in it is always a treat.
