    So many incredible life lessons in this beautiful classic film. Spoiled children with selfish entitlement issues.. An ungrateful wife..A humble 😌 hardworking wise husband with a thankless family and a real true friend who believes in his talents.
    There are so many one liner gemstones 💎 throughout this film.
    The anecdote for lack of gratitude is lessons of humility through a gifted wise man's example.

      I love the part when the father takes his daughter to dinner. He handle the situation like a gem. I love the ending.

    Dad's job was to "bring home the bacon" and was often under-appreciated like this poor man. They finally saw his worth. Excellent movie.

    With no inclination of religion, or prejudices-es, this movie was Enormously packed with Great Family and American values. Very Moving

      All the values God wants us to have. The family that prays together stays together.

      What is the hogus bogus gibberish trash that you wrote that betrays the severe damage that you suffer from in your prefrontal cortex to the extent that you hardly have a vegetative mind to live with that is why you are writing laughable foolishness. Actually, the film is full of Christian values and morality. These were movies made for a Christian public that appreciated decent, fun and edifying entertainment that you don't see today. Go learn before coming to write laughable foolishness that only betrays your ignorance and stupidity. What a miserable waste of human existence you are. How pathetic

    The father reminded me of humorist Will Rogers. I enjoyed this morality play. Refreshing in today's upside down world. And I love a happy ending! Thanks PizzaFlix !

    "You can take this job and stick it" -- spoken at minute 21 and 15 seconds! This fine sentiment ends with the words "in the ash can -- along with my compliments!" I'm thinking I'm going to love this movie, and hoping the selfish teenagers 1934 style are going to get their just comeuppance, too.

    Thanks Pizza Flix for another good movie! And how that poor guy, could think for himself, when that wife, & those kids wont let him ! They are the only ones that seem to be doing his thinking ! Poor old Dad, & he was such a swell guy! I felt sorry for him. There are too many chiefs & not enough indians in that family ! Loved that younger son tho, asking his brother if he was a prolitarian ! That was a good one ! Another great movie Thanks ! I enjoy all your movies.

    At the threshold of the second world war....on the trundling shades of the depression....a bold statement or testament of the fin de siècle and the beginning of a new and not so wholesome era.....great film nonetheless....thank you.

    Is this what poverty looked like in 1934?
    A single income earner supporting a family of five, two of them old enough to have jobs, a nice house in the burbs, a full dinner table every night. Hard to muster up the empathy.

      The older children were spoiled, ungrateful, and entitled. That's what happens when parents overindulge their kids, always give them what they want, and don't tell them NO.

      I agree, it was very unappealing for a long stretch at the beginning. I usually bail out from movies like this too, but I stuck it out this time and it turned into a pretty good message.
