Movies the whole family can watch. No profanity or sex. Thoroughly enjoyed!

I'm so glad I stumbled across this movie.
I'm weathered in here in Michigan. And No TV or Computer hooked~up.
But I have my phone &
All these type of great movies to keep me from dying from Boredom.

For some reason this reminds me of something that happened not too long after my husband and I got married. I was standing at the sink doing something when my husband came home from work. He came into the kitchen real quietly and just stood there. When I turned around and saw him I must have jumped a mile. He nearly scared me to death. Sooo, the next day when he was due to get home from work I hid 🙈 behind the door and said boo 👻 to him and I paid him back for scaring me. However, that’s about the only time I ever got the best of him. He would tease me and tease me until I would stamp my foot and tell him to get out of my kitchen. I wish I had him back now. I would love ❤️ to have him tease me now. We had been married only Once 10 years when he was only 37 years old he died with a brain cancer. He had been battling it for 5 or 6 years. I was 29 when he died. I’m now 79 years old widow because I never remarried. I’m unable to completely care for myself so I live with my oldest daughter and her wonderful husband. We had 3 children when my husband died. Two girls, one 9 and one 7, and a 5 year old son.

I was born in 49, so I grew up in this whole period of moms wearing pearls & dresses while making dinner, etc. I had 1 brother & 4 sisters so my mom was wearing house shoes & a mu-mu. I don’t know why but every family seemed to have helpers, either cooks or housekeepers. It wasn’t really like that. If I didn’t work baby-sitting at 11 y o, I would have no shoes for first day of school.

I was born in 1956 and adopted by a Doctor and his wife. I remember not getting to even see my dad for days at a time. He was already gone to work before we got up and so often still at the hospital after our bedtime.

I loved watching Dorothy Maguire movies. Exceptional in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Hadn't seen this film before so thank you for uploading.

This is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen! I arrived in the late 70s.

I always like to think of my teenage mother seeing this movie in 1950. I was born in '53.😊

That dance scene with percussion is hilarious, as is the psychiatrist. The real gems of this movie.

I know that I’m probably making far too many comments but I just can’t resist making this one. On night about 2:00 am in the night my little girl got really sick and I called one of my neighbors to come help me with her. My family doctor lived about one street over from my children and me and my husband had already died so it was just me and my children living there. When I told my doctor what I had done because I hadn’t wanted to wake him up he got all over me. He said to never hesitate to call him if one of us got sick and needed him. Shortly after that he had to have back surgery and was no longer able to practice and they moved away and he hadn’t lived long after that. He was a kind gentle, man and a great doctor. He had blond carelessly combed hair and wore cowboy boots but he was a great doctor and friend to all of his patients. 😊😊😊😊

I truly enjoyed this movie! Lighthearted and cheering.

That cough you could sell It to a bull moose. Hilarious!

I love Dorothy McGuire and have never seen this before. Her subtleness of humor is classically charming and adding the actress who played Maggie was a perfect pairing. "Shut-up, oh, I mean shut-up Honey".

"Suki, the hor d'oeuvres." Swish swish. I love that line. So cute and funny.

[evelynmatheson]

What a charming movie! There is romantic notions and then real life!!😁

[janeevapauck]

What a cute little movie. Thank you so much for sharing.

[zakiatariq]

As daughter of a doctor this is epic depiction of life of a doctor, even they are more busy than in the movies ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[stpward]

How I would love doctors that make house calls!
