I really appreciate your comments, Paula, because they give the film more depth than before, knowing some of this background information.

This is actually a pretty great film -- really more a John Ford movie that stars Shirley Temple than "a Shirley Temple movie."
Interesting you would say that, Paula. For us, since it is in our "Shirley Temple" collection of movies, we consider it a Shirley Temple movie (and it is one of several movies in a Shirley Temple series, sold as a set), but for someone who was more of a John Ford follower, it would certainly be a John Ford film.We have movies on our shelf, with John Wayne, that are not among our favorites, yet we have them, because they are "John Wayne movies"!
Thanks for sharing that perspective!

One of our favorites, from our Shirley Temple collection.
