After a very long week in Customer Service, I love to lay in bed, Sunday morning with coffee, and watch a feel good black and white movie. The best way to chill before Monday rolls around again.

[@kahlimgia5662]

Yessss..that just sounds AAAMAAZIIING🛏☕🎬🥰🤸🏽‍♀️💕

[@danacaro-herman3530]

@Suzanne Benscoter. How about Sunday church?

[@vjr5261]

@@danacaro-herman3530 it is a form of church. It’s also much needed self-care. Judge yourself.

[@danacaro-herman3530]

@@vjr5261 I'm not judging Vicki. No a movie is not church, perhaps a lovely movie like this after holy mass will give you greater comfort 🙏

Hats off to you in Customer Service. If you live in US, you American customer service folks are fabulous. Way better than here in Canada. Enjoy your precious time off, sister.

So refreshing to watch an entertaining movie with no vulgarity, no nudity, and having wholesome content. Thank you.

[@ChrisAthanas]

I wonder what changed it to be that garbage chute Hollywood is today?

[@maritzaagosto1793]

This film so pleasant to watch , it's enjoyable . John Forsythe, Loretta Young and all the other cast were splendid . No garbage like in so many of today's films . It's a shame film making isn't what it used to be . I love this film .

[@Lindacbugg]

No--the garbage was hidden behind the scenes. You're aware nobody forces a person to watch any specific type of film so enjoy what you like & let others enjoy what they do.

I agree Maritza!!

100% I was born in the wrong era🥰

[@l.5832]

Even as a child many decades ago watching these movies I always noticed how camera shots of the women were blurry and camera shots of the men were in sharp focus. Later, as I took courses in photography, I learned about 'soft focus' and how many actresses demanded blurry images in close up (like Natalie Schafer, bless her heart and soul....)

[@juliehoffman6292]

Loretta Young was such a lovely lady. John Forsyth was great in The Trouble with Harry also.

Loved this movie!!!! It looks like the exact same stage used for “Penny Serenade”! It also has Edgar Buchanan as the printing press operator in both films! Thank you for uploading this gem 🌷

[@theviolingeek]

I was thinking the same thing! He has a way with babies!

[@maritzaagosto1793]

Penny Serenade is also another good film with Cary Grant and Irene Dunne ... they were also wonderful 😊 in My Favorite Wife ... halarious film .

[@patrickryan1515]

And Edgar is once again changing diapers.

[@onlytruth4me915]

I noted that too. Lol!

[@patc249]

Nice movie I related to the printing.When in High School I got hired to melt the lead for the linotype machine. i melt the old type and poor it to form what we called pigs. They bars with a hook , hang on the machine and slowiy melts in the machine. Also the had feed press I ran. Imiss those days. That was in the 70's and spent 7 years in printing. Not a news paper.

[@randytracy1742]

With Loretta young ,John forsythe,frank mchugh and Edgar Buchanan-Loretta young and John forsythe are in this tale about a successful reporter and his wife who trade their posh life in New York City for a more modest one in a small town in rural central California where they buy a struggling local newspaper! The trouble begins when they start a contest to sell subscriptions for the newspaper and sell a car -a pouring rain storm Allen allegedly started by the editor (not really-just abnormal weather conditions) almost gets them sued but things clear up and they stay in the town at the end of the flick! John forsythe-what a guy! Bacon bachelor father, dynasty,Charlie’sangels( voice of Charlie) and what have you! Frank mcnu. Mchugh and Edgar Buchanan are great and Loretta young is a ray of sunshine in this comedy-in I give this is a five stars! ⭐️ 😮😮😮😅😅😅😅

[@vHumboldt77]

What a LOVELY film. Btw, at 20:37 Forsythe reads his first editorial on women's equality....listen to those words, far superior to the mumbo jumbo of today's equality speeches.

[@reFocusZone]

👏 A good story with interesting plot twists. (And that wealthy, womanizing while married store owner is one heck of a manipulative backstabber.)

[@coryd2668]

And that makes him a good and believable actor!😃

@ What are you preaching for? No need to start rambling your views on life.

@@redx589 Where Al is implying his political views, wisdom must be presented to assist the public in not being mislead down the dark path of Republican nonsense & mean-spirited, hatred for intelligence.

[@redx589]

@ That sounds like you're just pushing your own opinions onto him. Leave the guy alone. Let people think what they want. You don't need to push your own agenda onto someone else because you fear they might think differently. That sounds like the same authoritarian nonsense you claim to be against.

[@redx589]

@ Wow you're delusional. Your opinions are not facts and it's not up to you "to set anyone straight".

[@fkd1963]

Yeah. Loretta Young was a holier-than-thou Catholic who had a baby out of wedlock and "adopted" it. Later on, she ignored it after the girl came out as gay.

indeed!

People helping people is great but in those days as you know John Wayne and several other iconic stars lived alternative life styles.

[@cherylrosalis1948]

She left her baby outside!!!

Just goes to show how much has changed, when a woman can just leave her stroller, baby and all, alone, outside a clothing store, on the sidewalk, while she attends to her manner of business inside. These days, she'd be arrested by a big, steroid packed, muscle-cop, throwing her to the ground, tased & hogtied, for leaving the baby like that. Nowadays, the government is MEAN!

[@fkd1963]

Uh, it is a movie. . .

[@abrakadabrah3031]

I remember seeing multiple baby filled strollers outside of department stores, while mothers shopped. That was NORMAL!!! Never remember something happening to any baby. We were also left home alone, while parents worked. I was instructed in light cleaning and keeping the house and myself safe. From 5 -I made my lunch, ironed my clothes...we walked the city, played games in an alley, rode bikes if your parents could afford a bike for me. Yes, sometimes we remained in cars while our parent did errands or shopped. I did most of the food shopping at a neighborhood store- 2 miles away as a 10 year old. Loved it.

@@abrakadabrah3031 Yeah, we could just run all around the neighborhood, unsupervised! My friends and I even got molested a few times! Didn't think a thing of it. Just pulled our pants up and went home for a sandwich & kool-aid. It was fun back then.

@Yola Montalvan. It's wonderful, full of morals and beautiful for the whole family to watch.❤️

[@cynthiajones4332]

Question have you ever lied, stolen used God's name as a curse word (O-M-G)? Still think your good? According to God's law, you're guilty. But wait, God loves you, he made a way out. God so loved the world that he gave his son (Jesus death on the cross) that whoever believes in him will not die but have everlasting life. John 3:16 Please think about it. Repent/believe before the rapture. Jesus died for you,live for him. Love

[@OEllsworth]

An extremely dull excuse for a movie. How did we ever survive the 1950s? Thankfully culture returned in the next decade and we rediscovered that life could be fun again..
