Jennifer H Apr 3 This is such a wonderful classic to watch. The acting is impeccable. I am not one who is much from musicals, but this story was just so much more than that. See more 08/12/2015 Sometimes sappy MGM musical drama gives both Margaret O'Brien and June Allyson a chance to shine; Jimmy Durante steals scenes, especially when singing "Umbriago."

I'm not a huge June Allyson fan, always playing the teary 'swell' girl-next-door to the extreme. But in this movie she was enchanting and it worked. But what really hooked me was Marsha Hunt. What a beautiful woman and great actress she was. The supporting female cast is also excellent, especially the whimsical Marie Windsor and the sultry Katherine Balfour. Jose Iturbi plays essentially himself perfectly along with Durante and a cast of well-known character actors. I did not think the ending was predictable, was surprised and shed a happy tear at the end. The music and the character interaction were great. O'Brien may have been a tad over the top, but it still worked better than had she been more low-keyed. Seriously considering buying the DVD. See more 02/24/2014 A likable World War Two home front film that showcases the world of a travelling symphony orchestra. Margaret is adorable and shares several sweet scenes with June Allyson and Jimmy Durante. The music is excellent, the acting superb and the plot very engaging. See more 11/12/2012 Very endearing fare with June Allyson and little Margaret O'Brien teaming up as they did in my favorite version of Little Women. This has some wonderful examples of love and faith as the war is going on and an orchestra turns into mostly ladies. June Allyson's cello playing character is pregnant and her husband is at war..her little sister is a bright spot in her life. Good Movie! See more Read all reviews
