| We all love the book, and this movie is true to the original
story. Even the boys enjoy watching it. |
Dad thinks this movie has the coolest music, as well as a
great family message. |
We love classic black-and-white movies. This is one of the
very best. |

|
|
| This is one of our all-time favorites. It is pure silliness.
There are a few instances of using God's name in vain; otherwise, no
concerns. |
Classic Christian story beautifully
brought to the screen.

Sweet story which the kids insist is pure
"puppy love." (Don't blame the parents for that quote!) |
| |
|
|
| Wonderful songs in a story of one family's experience
preparing for the St. Louis World's Fair. |
Two bad girls contend with a very Catholic school principal.
Funny and charming.. |
Musical version of The Shop Around the Corner (1940).
In 1998 it was again remade into You've Got Mail, an inferior
version. |
| Great for family
night when the children are a little older
(starting at 8-12 years, depending on the movie and child) |
| |
Father Goose and Operation
Petticoat are World War II comedies. It seems only Cary Grant can make a
war movie funny and charming. Both movies have mild adult romantic
situations. We have found both to be a gentle way to open discussion
of war and its causes and effects. |

|
| Fast-paced comedy with some fantastic acting by Grant &
Russell. Our children started enjoying this around age 12 years. Before that
they just didn't get it. |
This is a sophisticated movie that sends an important
message about adult relationships. It is better for older children. |
Jimmy Stewart is a wonderful Charles Lindbergh. We were all
on the edge of our seats when he was falling asleep while flying over the
Atlantic! |
| When your family is
ready for some Alfred Hitchcock classic suspense, consider these. They are wonderful!
Caution: They all involve grave sin |
