Positive Over Negative I've seen three versions of Little Lord Fauntleroy. It is a great story of how positive triumphs over negative. This is an excellent version. Having seen the newer color versions (1980 & 1995) before this black and white (1936), I was afraid it might not hold up, but it was every bit as good, if not better than the newer versions. I highly recommend this version of the movie. I'm glad I purchased it and will enjoy watching it many more times.
Little Lord Fauntleroy Little Lord Fauntleroy (1936) (B&W) Great classic. One of my all time favorites. Since it is an original version the sound is a little difficult to hear. That's the only reason I give it 4 stars.
Sweet Old Fashioned movie My husband and I aren't nearly old enough to have seen this when it first came out in the movies. We saw most of the movie on Turner Classic Movies but missed the ending, so we bought the DVD. It was well worth the money - both of us cried. I recommend this to all age groups.
Great Entertainment This is good old fashioned enjoyable movie. Freddie Bartholomew plays the character of Fauntleroy with a great deal of maturity. Wonderful to see Mickey Rooney as the the character of Dick (the shoe shine lad) it is marvelous to know that Mickey is still making movies to this day, and long may he, he would be about 16 in this, but my he looks about 14 at the most. Basically it is the story of how the goodness of a little boy melts the heart of his grandfather and earns the respect of his elders. Along the way are a few twists and turns and a very enjoyable storyline.
The Best from the Past The movie is old but well thought out & wonderfully portrayed. The DVD retains all the vision & passion, not to mention the struggles & joys of the original film. It is a classic! Such an item deserves a place in ANY ncollection & needs to be watched from time ti time with affection.
