Right up the alley of people who need a good giggle and a family movie night. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.

Light and funny, feel-good.

What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • Made in 1937: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you want something with an edge.

An orphan girl becomes adopted by a group of old men and is placed in the home of one of them. She sings and dances and helps out where she can.
