Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I'll take a Wombat
I guess this movie was supposed to be redemptive when it was released but it has not aged well at all. Grifter type family cons their way into a wealthy elderly woman's (Miss Fortune, get it?)home and life. Plot is totally predictable, and I would certainly expect more out of the distinguished cast. The 1940s seems a million light years away.

However the con father is forced to work at an automobile dealership that sells a sleek futuristic car called the Wombat. That black car ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Very light comedy
This is what might be called a "light romance" and not a screwball comedy at all. It's about a family of con artists that goes straight after encountering a generous old lady. The casting is poor. (It was nearly Gaynor's last film, for obvious reasons. Richard Carlson is wasted entirely, and Fairbanks is wholly unconvincing.) There are no laughs. Some of the sets are incredibly phony. And in the end the director had to rely on a parade of pups to generate good feelings. In short, this is a ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pleasant Family Comedy About a Family of Crooks
THE YOUNG IN HEART is an unusual comedy from the 1930's. Produced by the legendary David O. Selznick, it's a warm-hearted picture of a family of con-men who worm their way into the good graces of an lonely elderly woman living on an estate in hopes of becoming her heirs. The movie is charming but I actually didn't find it that funny, yet it is very enjoyable. Character actress Minnie Dupree steals the show in a gentle, non-hammy performance as the lonely senior - incredibly, this is one of only ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Delightful Charmer
This warm and delightful charmer might just be the best classic film you've probably never seen. Richard Wallace helmed this hilarious film based on the story "The Gay Banditti" by I.A.R. Wylie about a "family" of shallow scoundrels who find that pretending to be decent isn't really all that difficult. A sharp and funny screenplay by Paul Osborne and a playful score from Franz Waxman make this one of David O. Selznick's best productions. A 1930's cast that dreams are made of includes Douglas Fairbanks ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - YOUNG IN HEART PRETTY SPIFFY LOOKING ON DVD!
In "Young in Heart" Miss Ellen Fortune (Minnie Dupree) is a painfully lonely elderly woman, traveling on a European train. She meets the rather roguish, wholly unusual Carlton family; George-Anne (Janet Gaynor), Richard (Douglas Fairbanks Jr.), Leslie (Paulette Goddard), Col. Anthony (Roland Young) and Marmy (Billie Burke); a rambunctious pack of congenial connivers. Recently deposed from their perch on the Riviera, the Carlton's decide that Ellen is just such a wealthy fop, ripe for their picking. Ellen, ... Read More
