Take Care of My Little Girl (1951)

[@tressaza]

I always feel good after watching old movies. I started my movie watching at 10 years old. Now I'm 70, and still get a kick out of them.

[@FemiNelson-sb1em]

@anneza5 • I so agree. We cannot afford Cable or Satellite anymore, let alone have free TV bc where we live, signal is bad, high winds always affect free TV. Despite not liking these new phones, making the best of it is part of enjoying free YT. We're so grateful for these beautiful movies that I too recall watching since the early 60's. 1st in Spanish, then in English. Now in both, now n again in other languages. Padre God be Praised for so many that are uploading these beautiful movies. ❤ 🙏 "Isa"

No swearing, no sex. Perfect. I hate modern movies. I end up turning them off because they swear their heads off at nothing and next thing they are throwing their clothes off. If they only knew how offensive and boring it is, they would not bother wasting their money making that junk.

[@nikkishears6402]

I'm in my thirties, and these old movies are all I watch. I just love the simple beauty of the time in which they were filmed. I grew up watching old black and white movies with my mom. Some of my favorite memories were watching her favorite movies with her. She loves Jeanne Crain, and so do I. Just a brilliant actress, and a classic beauty. There will never be movies like these again, and it's a real tragedy. Thanks so much for sharing. Loved every moment!

"Take Care of My Little Girl" This movie was made 2 years before I was born. This movie is so full of the RIGHT choices in life no matter how old you get, doing the right thing, always holds your character and integrity in tact. Sometimes our parents need to be taught that. Good movie with old fashion values like my dad taught me. My dad...left me in the hands of my husband the title of this movie caught my eye, because those were his words to him, "take care of my little girl".

lillyrose sunset Isn't it strange, that two people that meant so much to eachother, I mean the two were in separable. Then grow up and dispose of you as if you are nothing, and talk to you as if your just anyone online. When in fact your talking to your Mom, yet it's so hard for the child now an adult to realize that mom loves you always and forever.

[@rozyvee]

lillyrose sunset Being born again means...reborn clean start. The Lord says if you have I'll feelings with your brother...(in this case not your brother but your mother) do not come to me, for if you can't love him who you can see, how can you love me which you haven't seen. Born again is God like, humble, selfless, make amends with your flesh your conscious your jealousy, do not take that which you have not earned. Come clean with truth. Your lies have been said so much for so long you don't know the difference from truth a lies...your mother God has made to care for you and scarface for you and your brother and sisters. How could you not see what is true and as plan as the nose on your face. Your children see it...little eyes see. Evil, jealousy a bad seed is what you have been. But, God is GoOD working in my life ...protecting me when my own children turned their backs on me...Jesus was their..put a perfect stranger to take me in...when I was homeless. Yet, how many times have I taken my kids in Cats dogs and all...three...God has opened my eyes. .to see my children only care for their father...who never lifted a finger for them...just filled my children with lies... God forgive your father for not providing for his children.... But taken all he cab from the fruit their mother laid down for them. My children, who have been wholeheartedly loved, protected then from knowing the ugly truth that their dad put me through...because I didn't want to spoil their childhood love for their father...like my mother destroyed my little brothers and sisters love for my dad...uglyness has to stop somewhere...STOP it will...God has control and protection of my grandkids...they will know better...because their heart felt my selfless love...that seed was planted and it will bring fruit. .if my kids won't wake up.

This movie is such a beautiful look at accepting yourself and others for who they are, not for how they look or what they can do for you. Jeanne Crain could act in anything. She does a wonderful job in this movie, as well as in Pinky, People Will Talk, and Cheaper by the Dozen. She always does a lovely job at being in movies that celebrate the individuality of all kinds of ladies. She is an actress that I really respect.

I remember as a child dressing up even to go shopping in town, even though i was only a pre schooler I remember my parents walked to churuch with us kids and all our friends, walked with us we lived in a small BC packers settlement in the north, no cars so everyone walked in a big group and sang as they walked it was so nice I liked listening to the adults singing as we all went down the sidewalk together. I was still in a stroller, but I remember it still. they seemed to have songs for every occasion, now there are songs but many i think should not exist. We had the May-day celebration and we danced around the may pole, they would elect the queen of the May i have an old film of a May day and the crowning of the queen from 1959, I was still in the oven LOL so to speak, but it is so neat to see. I can't remember when that stopped, I still remember in school there were ribbons around the may pole and i grabbed one and danced around it with the other children, it was so much fun. why are there so many who hate our traditions and religion. and heritage? they don't have any idea of what is coming to replace it, and their freedoms which they seem so willing to give up, for a bit of fake safety.

Yes indeed Mr. Dale Robertson was a fine figure of a real man a loner and no apologies did his thing and was respectful very handsome. I think he is part Cherokee like me and my mother( who also is Black and Irish). I see why my mother loved this man, he was the epitome of class, regal honest and did not care what people thought when Mr Dale set them straight when a wrong was committed. Yes Love Mr. Jeffery Hunter too handsome to and a gentleman and a fine actor. I know how it feels to be bullied and not accepted because of being 'different'. Yes I am of mixed heritage, Black West Indian part Cherokee and part Irish with long hair but not pretty but very intelligent play som musical instruments but, who relearning left handed now, electric guitar and violin due to an accident I sustained. But, regardless I was never good enough to those who really do not matter due to their insecurities and false pride and money or whatever bugs them. My point being, I see these old movies to remind me and those other young people in this 21st Century that stupidity bias and the like occurs in any century and any decade it's all the same , human nature I reckoning and furthermore, being in a fraternity does not make or break a person and being accepted in a click popular group is the same thing irrelevant. I think people should see these moral and thought provoking movies to understand what really is important: faith hope charity country strength honesty and character is all that is required, and being with genuine people does bring peace security and perhaps happiness, period.

This was one of Jeanne Crain's last ingenue roles. At the time, she was a married mother of three and it was getting tougher for her to play the naive innocent which she had done for most of her career with the notable exception of "Pinky." After this picture, it appears she decided that it was time for both an image change and to play more adult characters. For her next picture ("People Will Talk" with Cary Grant), she'd ditch her signature long-locks for a more mature hairstyle and play a sadder-but-wiser girl.

[@ingridclare7411]

'Long locks' don't indicate immaturity. Just because she has 3 children doesnt mean she can't have long hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Women of all ages once used to have long hair. It was beautifully pinned up. Before women were told they had to cut their hair!! It is not mandatory for older women to cut their hair and its stupid they do it. I have long hair as an older woman and its much admired. I wear it tied up often...

[@drmantistobboggangonzodr3961]

Back then didn’t the studios like MGM etc have a contract with actresses and the studios were the ones deciding the casting they put different actresses up for ? Well Hollywood still decides on who to cast today but I just meant that the studio were the ones who picked the image they wanted for certain actresses. And maybe actors too, I don’t know 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’ve only read autobiographies about mostly female actresses from the golden age of Hollywood which mentioned the studio relationship; the men’s memoirs / autobiographies I’ve read didn’t get into the subject. there were many actresses like Judy garland who after the popularity of wizard of oz who felt like the studio was trying to dress them younger didn’t want them to get married and have children or gain weight or show any type of figure because they wanted them to be seen as young to play the roles the public still perceived them as... Judy also was given pills and put in strict diets which stunted her growth and hurt her health. (They also worked them way over hours which would be acceptable today, particularly for children, according to Judy and those who worked with her.). Shirley temple said she had the same types of issues. Desk arnaz and Lucille ball - Lucy’s mother, when they were accused of being communists or sympathizers if communists, reportedly thought some rival studio was behind it. Which sounds nuts but who knows. Some TV 📺 trivia for you: You can clearly hear Lucy’s mom in I love Lucy takes, in the audience since she had a distinctive laugh and sat by the sound mike. Since they used those laugh tracks in many other shows later on, you can recognize her laugh in 60s, 70s and 80s shows too!

[@debbiekelly2850]

Don't forget Churches; who preach words to get; "worker bees"; & if one listens carefully can find these same practices going on at the church too.

I don't think sorority life has changed very much. The meanness is still a prominent feature. Luckily, they don't seem to be as popular as they used to be. Many girls on campus thought rush was a joke, "oh, so I guess you need to buy your friends." And they don't seem to own houses they way they did in the past. Some of them rent spaces, but some don't seem to even pretend that housing is part of the deal. And the hazing continues "undercover" despite the universities making the behavior "illegal". It will be nice to see the last of this foolishness done with.

Beautiful Voices ... Really Magnificent !

[@normansmithers7631]

jean peters had a decent voice; she could easily have got the part in either ''calamity jane' or gloria grahame's part in oklahoma. however, she made some fantastic films, of which this was not one of them.

I remember Dale Robertson from TV growing up--Tales of Wells Fargo.

That non frat party looks so much comfier and nice than animalistic frat ones tbh.

Love watching old country side movies! Lovely era!

[@marilynstevenson865]

23 minutes in!! I'm gritting me teeth as the Sweet heart song is being sung!!! God help me!!! Did this really go on?? For how many decades?? Knives at a thousand paces!! Daggers at 6!!!

I have never seen this movie before. I am originally from England and currently live in Australia. I was absolutely fascinated. I have never seen anything like it. I don't really understand the freshman or sorority thing except that the 'freshman' are in the first year of college? Do they really do all that singing? I had heard that they had sorority? groups but have little understanding as to how that came about or even much about them. It's all new to me. I wasn't born until 1952 so was wondering if this 'tradition' still continued through the 60's and beyond. Anyway suffice to say I am not a 'group' type of joining person so probably would have been independent if I was living there at that time. It doesn't appeal to me but I guess it must be a tradition in the USA. Anyway it was an interesting movie.

[@seeadler3233]

Denise Carnes, Freshman = 1st year , Sophomore = 2nd year , Junior = 3rd year , Senior = 4th year . US high schools also use the same nomenclature for school years 9-10-11-12 . Most men who started college after discharge from the armed forces found the sororities and fraternities --- shall we say " sophomoric ".

Who's watching November 2020 good old movies

[@texas1949]

And this was very good quality! I especially enjoy checking out the ones I’ve not heard of before!

[@normansmithers7631]

little did people know just what a great actress jean peters would turn out to be!!

[@normamcmanus1139]

“Blue Print For Murder” is one of her best.

[@user-wc7mo9uo9o]

Wonderful heartwarming movie. Thank you.

[@normansmithers7631]

check out some of jean peters films after this.

[@user-wc7mo9uo9o]

I liked it, smooth plot. Look how nice and neat they used to dress in college!

[@normansmithers7631]

jean peters made some fantastic action films after this.

[@0rangeberri547]

Why is everybody talking about Jennifer Jones and she's not even in this movie

[@lindachamp5884]

I think the original commenter got Jennifer Jones confused with Jeanne Crain. They do kinda resemble each other.

[@marc639]

Boy this film takes me back. 1961, delta upsilon was my frat house.

[@ItWILLbeWONDERFUL_THERE]

Mrs. Howell !!!! When I read the name Natalie Schafer I wondered why it sounded so familiar. Now I know. I can't believe Liz's mom actually said "HELL" even in the context of the sorority tradition of "HELL WEEK" . Past that, this script is so clean you could eat off it. Minus the *HELL week* language. Ha, ha. By the Way..... good movie!

[@carolswarbrick1722]

oh how very glad my schooling never had such vile standards. l had everyone as my friend. Never bullied. Ugly behaviour. Stuff the fraternity stuff stuff stuff ugh!!!!

[@TheVeek192]

Do you really think that people didn't use "vulgar language" in the 50s? Or slang? Really?

[@stephaniejade7056]

Classic movies definitely stayed away from the smutty and vulgar language that is so common today. Also, see kay -- yes, real people (not fictional characters) would have used vulgar language, but it was definitely not commonplace!!!

[@SMGsweets]

@@stephaniejade7056 ...people were not so different then as we are now....they swore, lied, cheated, had dysfunctional families and just about all the same vices we enjoy today....the thing with movies was that back then they had EXTREME censorship laws on what could or could not be shown so they HAD to 'stay away' from most reality...movies of our times actually tell more of the truth about life than the old movies we love .... real life in those times was only fantasy in movies...it was not real life at all....

[@yolamontalvan9502]

gavin Reid - I love these old movies. They never swear. They never say the F word, the S word, the M word, the C word. What I heard sometimes was the N word only.

[@peterjeffery8495]

Remind me of a great quip by Groucho Marx who once said "I'd never belong to a club that would have me as a member". The novel the film was based on had themes of religious and racial prejudice that are left out of the picture. Too bad, it would have had greater impact and relevance. Gentleman's Agreement made around this time was groundbreaking, exploring anti antisemitism in modern (late 40's) America. Great post..many thanks!

Wow. The book sounds awesome! I must look into it. 👌🏾

You can learn so much about social history from these old films - like it makes you understand how the Nancy Polosis of this world turned out the way they did - its quite sad really

I enjoyed it immensely.

[@kevinvalentinocasanova8416]

Very nice movie. thanks for posting

[@mchatouille]

The young lady in the black dress on the right at 37:02 is Gail Davis, who played the leading role in the mid-1950's western TV series, Annie Oakley. I believe her final role was in an episode of the Andy Griffith show, where she beat Andy in a skeet-shooting contest. Search "Gail Davis" on KZbin to see more.

[@mchatouille]

Here's the best link to that particular episode of the Andy Griffith show: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmjEfXuFmr5siaM

[@seathomplay4167]

Second time I've seen this movie and I find it more thought-provoking than ever. I never wanted to be in a frat when in college, although I had good friends who were. I thought the movie was overly-harsh towards them, but maybe the Greek System was very different in the 40's & 50's as compared to the 80's and 90's when I was in school. Still, the idea of being kind to others and not just to your close circle of friends cannot be over-estimated, especially in today's world where people are so cruel to others, especially those they disagree with or are not of an "acceptable race, religion or gender" which is the reverse of what was "acceptable" back in those days, as I am referring to white, christian, males who are disparaged in every segment of society on a daily basis, especially our colleges and universities.

[@rosemcguinn5301]

I guess I can see some of what you are saying here. I've encountered some serious snobbery and even hate language since I became certain that Christ is the Saviour. I think that the pendulum of cultural ideals tends to swing back and forth. Reading history makes me see it that way. But I also see how things have deteriorated throughout history during my lifetime. It is best never to be racially prejudiced, for we have but one race on earth and that's the human race. But it's also better to protect our freedom of speech, press, religion, etc. so that we can protect free will. Choices have to be made by us all. I miss older style manners very much at times. I think we may be too casual, forgetful of what real manners were intended for. They were not only intended to separate levels of society, but also to help friends to get along better together. Manners really do count. They help people to be truthfully ethical while still interrelating. Sadly, many young people simply do not get it. They become impatiently pushy, and think that they are effectively debating. They are not. They are simply being hateful instead of debating. Also, they weren't really taught how to think for themselves, let alone how to study deeply enough. I myself keep learning about what this means. Our modern culture barely helped me even a tiny little bit to learn anything about how to handle this.

[@greldaiselachavezvelez9460]

Great movie ! Thankyou ... !

[@valiredavis2534]

😄 .. I could have sworn that the guy who sitting at the table with the woman before you click on the movie is Richard Beymer the actor who played Tony in ‘ Westside Story ‘. - I guess someone posted the wrong photograph and meant to post Jeffrey Hunter’s picture instead. It is nice to finally see ‘ Mrs. Howell ‘ a.k.a. Lovey from Gilligans Island in something different. ☺️

[@rosarioreside3327]

Jeanne Crain my favorite Thank you for putting up this movie I appreciated . It’s sad she passed away soo soon age 78 . Very young. Average to to die is 98 Anyway we only owe our life to Heavenly Father R.I.P. Dear, Ms. Jeanne Crain🙏♥️
