For some reason this reminds me of something that happened not too long after my husband and I got married. I was standing at the sink doing something when my husband came home from work. He came into the kitchen real quietly and just stood there. When I turned around and saw him I must have jumped a mile. He nearly scared me to death. Sooo, the next day when he was due to get home from work I hid 🙈 behind the door and said boo 👻 to him and I paid him back for scaring me. However, that’s about the only time I ever got the best of him. He would tease me and tease me until I would stamp my foot and tell him to get out of my kitchen. I wish I had him back now. I would love ❤️ to have him tease me now. We had been married only Once 10 years when he was only 37 years old he died with a brain cancer. He had been battling it for 5 or 6 years. I was 29 when he died. I’m now 79 years old widow because I never remarried. I’m unable to completely care for myself so I live with my oldest daughter and her wonderful husband. We had 3 children when my husband died. Two girls, one 9 and one 7, and a 5 year old son.
I was born in 49, so I grew up in this whole period of moms wearing pearls & dresses while making dinner, etc. I had 1 brother & 4 sisters so my mom was wearing house shoes & a mu-mu. I don’t know why but every family seemed to have helpers, either cooks or housekeepers. It wasn’t really like that. If I didn’t work baby-sitting at 11 y o, I would have no shoes for first day of school.
There were classes of people who did live a higher standard, & those of lower incomes who never had help or anything extra. Movies did show both but it was much nicer to see a movie that wasn't depressing & real life.
The pearls and nice dresses were for special dinners with guests and of course, church. Back then, you wore a house dress to do housework, a day dress with a hat and gloves to go out shopping and a nicer dress with gloves and a hat for church. Men wore a suit and tie. How things have changed!
Movies tend to show bigger houses and far nicer clothes than most people have! I was raised in the 50s and we certainly never had” help”, ever! And nobody dressed up to do housework! We were fortunate to finally move to the suburbs and most of our money went to the mortgage! We did dress up outside the home much more than people do today!
I grew up in the 60s & told my sister that kids were going to think later on that people before us grew up in a world where everything was in black & white.
I was born in 1956 and adopted by a Doctor and his wife. I remember not getting to even see my dad for days at a time. He was already gone to work before we got up and so often still at the hospital after our bedtime.
I was born in 1953 and my dad was also a doctor. It was the same for me as for you. I adored my dad but never saw much of him until my teens, when I was able to stay up late. He didn't talk much about his background or his childhood. He died several years ago and there's still so much I don't know much about him. I would have preferred to have a little less income and a little more of my dad.
I'm so glad I stumbled across this movie. I'm weathered in here in Michigan. And No TV or Computer hooked~up. But I have my phone & All these type of great movies to keep me from dying from Boredom.
I love Dorothy McGuire and have never seen this before. Her subtleness of humor is classically charming and adding the actress who played Maggie was a perfect pairing. "Shut-up, oh, I mean shut-up Honey".
I know that I’m probably making far too many comments but I just can’t resist making this one. On night about 2:00 am in the night my little girl got really sick and I called one of my neighbors to come help me with her. My family doctor lived about one street over from my children and me and my husband had already died so it was just me and my children living there. When I told my doctor what I had done because I hadn’t wanted to wake him up he got all over me. He said to never hesitate to call him if one of us got sick and needed him. Shortly after that he had to have back surgery and was no longer able to practice and they moved away and he hadn’t lived long after that. He was a kind gentle, man and a great doctor. He had blond carelessly combed hair and wore cowboy boots but he was a great doctor and friend to all of his patients. 😊😊😊😊
I always said that I never wanted to marry a doctor, lawyer, farmer, or pastor. They are all on call 24/7. After I got married my husband enlisted in the Navy. I found out that being a Navy Seals wife is worse than any of the above. I see my husband about 8 weeks out of the year...non-sequential days. And that's when he isn't deployed. The divorce rate for Navy Seals is over 90 percent. It's like being single. And celibate. 19 years!!! So far. And they don't all retire at 20 years.
@@roundtwo3321 As I stated, for ME, being married to a SEAL is like being single and celibate for the last 19 years. He's a chronic adulterer. That's why the divorce rate is so high for SEALS...their moral bar is set very low.
I had the most wonderful mother-In-law that any woman could possibly ever hope for. Because of my husband’s and my faith we believed differently from the rest of his family. I wore my hair long, and no makeup or jewelry except for my wedding band and I sometimes would wear a pin on my blouse. My mother-in-law wore makeup and was always dressed in all of the latest styles. However, she seemed just as proud of me as if I 26:28 had been her own daughter although I was a long way from looking like her two daughters. After my husband died she and Pawpaw made every child birthday or main event although we lived about a hundred or 150 miles away from each other. Pawpaw died first. He was nearly 20 years older than her but she continued to come see us until she had to be put into a nursing home.

If anyone wants to see a real love story about a young couple struggling with love & marriage & family- it's Made For Each Other. And another is Penny Serenade.
The naïveté of young brides…. Life never really prepares us for the real world does it? Fairy tales don’t exist in real life, but if you work hard, never give up, forgive and forget, and put love above all, a few of us get something better than a fairy tale. Real, raw, emotional, and beautiful day to day LIFE and the ups and downs that come with it is the REAL THING! Don’t waste a single precious moment on a fairy tale that doesn’t exist, you won’t regret it!
Absolutely! I’m almost 70 and my ex wife and I loved each other very much and wanted a family We have three great sons together but after 23 years realized at 43 that we were both very different people The divorce was very difficult but we are both very happy now and even after 20 years I sat with she and her husband at out nephews wedding because it was about them not us 😉
It's so funny that I accidentally found this! (It was a random UA-cam suggestion.) Back in the late 50's, my great-uncle came back from medical school and service in the Air Force as the new doctor of our little country town. He was young, attractive, and a good, kind Christian man on top of being a single doctor. My great-aunt decided then and there that she was going to marry him, so she made an appointment to see him even though she wasn't sick. I've heard my uncle tell that story a hundred times and I swear she copied this film down to the very symptoms! Of course he saw through her ruse, but he was flattered and asked her out. They were married 4 months later. Now I'm wondering if she had seen this film and remembered this trick! 😂 I'll never know because they're both long since in Heaven, but they had a wonderful marriage on into their golden years. Now whenever I watch this I'll think of them and smile! 💖
This might’ve been my parents life before I was born. My dad was a doctor and my mom was a young attractive woman . I was born in 53 and my mom was hard to get on with normally. So it might’ve been the reason why they divorced.
Imagine,you just met a man you show interest , it's mutual attraction and after one or two kisses your engaded and married. Comparre that to todays situation.
What a cute movie!!! I never understood why my friends chased doctors and attorneys! Who would want someone married to their career? They nabbed them but to no surprise they all later divorced. Money isn’t everything
I don't think it's about money. Doctors are important and well respected professionals and this gives social prestige. Anyone who marries a doctor needs to support them in their work. If a woman wants her own career then she shouldn't marry a doctor, end of. Marry a builder or something instead.

Ahem. IN DEFENSE OF THE FLANNEL NIGHTGOWN I have been a flannel nightgown girl my entire life. It was a battle, too, my mom couldn't stand nightgowns so how could I possibly be happy in one? I was 10 before I finally succeeded only because dad was with us. I have not worn pajamas for 57 years. My partners never minded. I made them myself. So roomy! My feet get cold and I can't sleep with cold feet. I can turtle up in my flannel and my feet stay warm. You cannot insult me and my flannel. It won't work. I found a style that was far less granny than flannel is supposed to be. Thank you very much!
I grew up in the 1950s and yes, life was very idyllic and people were very decent back then. People's standards were very high, and people were religious.
Being married to a Dr can be quite lonely at times when yr husband is married to his work aswel realy like this movie I've watched it a few times here so it's a very good movie Ty for uploading this movie 🙂
I can't believe there is a movie based on Mary Bard's book and I've never seen it before. Mary Bard was the older sister of author Betty MacDonald. who wrote 'The Egg and I' as well as a few other of my favorite books. Mary was married to a Doctor in real life .
I have all books by both sisters…Betty McDonald has written some of the funniest books I have read, ‘onions in the Stew’ being my favourite. Mary Bard wrote her books after being ‘ egged on by Betty’ as her book dedication states. The whole Bard family was amazing, Betty sadly dying at age 50 from lung cancer….Her eldest daughter Anne is still alive, she is now 96 years old.
I am anticipating laughter... I do wish there were more colourised films of good quality and Fun Comedy... as I'm attempting to Brighten My Spirit, as part of my personal Protocols to curing myself of DNA Chronic illness and Cancers and tumours causing chronic illness... this is important to me, as I've heard beautifully Fun movies, without the gore and violence, and sex scenes of what is passing as good movies these days - and so I reverted to watching 'Old Movies' not Suspense/Thrillers though... the more the merrier as they say :) very Thankful to You Both for your Channel and good work.
A wonderful movie. Perfect cast and some delightfully funny scenes. The Husband was clueless. It is also the same theme music (Love Ness 1920) used in Burns and Allen.
This is so weird I'm sitting at home laying in a bed feeling sorry for myself because I feel like crap and hear this lady is going to the doctor with the symptoms that I have
Yes, True! Up until 1970’s, then Radical Feminism changed the Western And Democratic Nation’s, even in Nation’s where Women had Equal Voting Right’s since the 1920’s. Feminism created three strata of Women in Society viz. Extreme Feminists, Traditional Women, And, the Women who Blew Both Way’s! My Grand Mother had Travelled Alone to The USA in the early 1900’s. But, she returned to her Nation in 1922 where she was treated as a Stranger. However, Grand Mother made a Good Marriage And together Grand Mother + Grand Father created Private Companies where my Intelligent Grand Mother was an Equal Owner Director. Grand Mother created her Equality , she didn’t wait Fifty Years for Extreme Or Radical Feminism! A Remarkable Lady! Thankfully she was My Grand Mother…Which has resulted in My Respect for ALL in Our Nation + Our Shared Earth! Obviously, Respect has to itself be Respected, Therefore, I Qualify My Respect by Each Person’s Actions! A Real Lady, can be a Lady, without becoming an Extreme Radical Feminist, in My Experience!. As A Man , I enjoy the Company Of Real People!
What a WONDERFUL Old Movie 🍿 I enjoyed it so much more than the Movies Today with all the Vulgar content and Bad language Is was Refreshing to see…..Life back then People Dressed so nicely and they lived Respectfully not like Today……Young Ladies Today Wear next to nothing and have the Worst Falmouths not Ladies at all…. Thank You for having this Movie Watching from Virginia 🌹
The scene about an hour in where Jane is giving birth, apparently anaesthetised to the point of being unconscious, is horrifying! Makes me think of Twilight Sleep, a method of drugging women in labor that was popular in the early 20th century.
@@janet8418 I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I've read that the morphine used in the 'twilight sleep' cocktail didn't help with labor pains and often caused the women to become delirious to the point of needing to be restrained. I hope this wasn't your experience. Like treating morning sickness with thalidomide (my grandma was nearly prescribed this while pregnant with my mother but opted not to take it) sometimes medical interventions do more harm than good!
@@xxempress they gave me very little of Twilight. Baby came out very healthy with beautiful color. Next baby, different dr., don’t know what they gave but baby came out with an odd color, sort of bluish.
My mom talked about how they used to do that to women. I'd think that might hinder the bonding process! Of course, women were often kept a week or two in the hospital after giving birth, too. That might have helped!
Running an efficient, safe home & raising children successfully without letting them get screwed up by the world is a very hard job as well, but vastly rewarding & if you're lucky enough to have a man pay for your home & other expenses while your family building for the future it's well worth it. It's far easier to be a bad parent & spouse than a good one.
This guy lacked people skills. He ignored his female, medical technician's feelings for him. He ignored his female, housekeeper's feelings for him. He had no filter, barking out insults and orders to his wife at any time and place. People didn't matter in his world unless they broke through that wall by putting up a fuss.
@@roundtwo3321 You are correct. Your comment as a reply to mine is odd though. What you say doesn't rebut my point, and it doesn't support my point. I'll offer something to tie the two lines of thought together. We have posted speed limits so people will know that going above the posted speed is considered dangerous and is to be avoided. Intelligent, and thoughtful people don't need posted speed limits, they drive prudently at all times. The doctor in this movie was neither intelligent, nor thoughtful. He needed posted rules to educate him on how to behave, and what to look for in other people. Without such rules being put in his face, he went about like a selfish jerk and had no idea that he was a selfish jerk. Marriage vows are like posted speed limits. They make the rules of the marriage relationship clear. They are made clear, at least, to those people who think about the words of the vows they are required to say. Had a person he respected had explained what the marriage vows mean before he took them, he may have backed out of the marriage. Or, he may have taken them to heart and recognized that he needed to back out of the promise he made to the woman doctor in order to keep his marriage vows. A person who cares about other people and pays attention to what they say, and do, will not need rules to treat other people well. But that person will also not resent swearing an oath to follow the rules laid out in the vows.
Great movie.i believe in minding my own business unless there is no harm coming to my children and there grown and for 2 men and women can be friends without no strings attached.most of the time.dont break up a happy relationship or friendship over something should of been avoided in the first place.temptation!
Charming movie, Dorothy McGuire and William Lundigan are both really good actors. But this movie was more than a little light on emotions. No real emotion when they married, no real romance or passion even on their honeymoon. No pride or emotion when he found out she was pregnant. No tears, real sadness or emotion from either of them when she was leaving him. And Neither of them shed a tear, or acted scared, or hysterical, when their babies were poisoned. His fellow doctors and nurses at the hospital showed more concern than they did. I assume it was a case of bad directing; as both are talented actors who portrayed their characters convincingly, albeit, without emotion.
without having seen it yet, I figured this to be the case. I think it's the style. You're suppose to feel the emotion without the actors overdramatizing it. Kinda the opposite of 1940's melodramas. The writing is suppose to get you and you're gripped with emotion. LOL my take any way...

Yes, but the movies were in part designed to lift you from the drudgery of your own existence - escapism, perhaps a carry over from depression years.

My feet get cold and I can't sleep with cold feet. I can turtle up in my flannel and my feet stay warm. You cannot insult me and my flannel. It won't work. I found a style that was far less granny than flannel is supposed to be. Thank you very much!
Flannel is very comfy. What do you do in summer? Not prying.
I am chuckling over this. I wear flannel nightgowns and my husband buys them for me every year! He loves them.❤❤❤
~ Another flannelette nightie fan here!
@@2degucitas in summer I wear cotton knit.
What a sweet little film!💗
I grew up in the 1950s and yes, life was very idyllic and people were very decent back then. People's standards were very high, and people were religious.
Being married to a Dr can be quite lonely at times when yr husband is married to his work aswel realy like this movie
I've watched it a few times here so it's a very good movie Ty for uploading this movie 🙂
I can't believe there is a movie based on Mary Bard's book and I've never seen it before. Mary Bard was the older sister of author Betty MacDonald. who wrote 'The Egg and I' as well as a few other of my favorite books. Mary was married to a Doctor in real life .
Wow that is very interesting!!!
I have all books by both sisters…Betty McDonald has written some of the funniest books I have read, ‘onions in the Stew’ being my favourite. Mary Bard wrote her books after being ‘ egged on by Betty’ as her book dedication states. The whole Bard family was amazing, Betty sadly dying at age 50 from lung cancer….Her eldest daughter Anne is still alive, she is now 96 years old.
So, she got sick, went to see a Doctor.. found out he was cute.. now they're dating. It could happen! 😂
😂😂
Cary Grant's PEOPLE WILL TALK. Same set up, diff senario.. good flick. Funny! Another 'could happen' deal.
And so it did 😂
It's disconcerting to think that some doctors are like that.
@@sunnyadams5842Good movie, like this one is a good movie.
"Will you let Mr Drudnik take you to dinner real soon?" That's my new go-to line. LOL

Great upload. Good quality sound and visual. Thankyou 🙂
Many thanks! We appreciate your support!
I am anticipating laughter... I do wish there were more colourised films of good quality and Fun Comedy... as I'm attempting to Brighten My Spirit, as part of my personal Protocols to curing myself of DNA Chronic illness and Cancers and tumours causing chronic illness... this is important to me, as I've heard beautifully Fun movies, without the gore and violence, and sex scenes of what is passing as good movies these days - and so I reverted to watching 'Old Movies' not Suspense/Thrillers though... the more the merrier as they say :) very Thankful to You Both for your Channel and good work.
I liked the hint on their first meal in her kitchen; if you use cream, I haven't any.."
Nice film, graet casting & acting
Umm what hint? She's talking about cream for coffee.
Absolutely charming movie ❤
Great "old fashioned" movie! Thanks for the upload! 👍🇺🇲
You're welcome! Thank you for your support 🙏
I loved the interior designs.
I love old fashion designs. It looks so warm and cosy
Excellent film - and romantically sexy!!! Why is this film not more well known ? Brilliant acting from the whole cast.
Agree, a good, clean and no foul language movie. Thank you...just subscribed, look forward to more of these good movies. 🤗👍🇺🇲
A wonderful movie. Perfect cast and some delightfully funny scenes. The Husband was clueless. It is also the same theme music (Love Ness 1920) used in Burns and Allen.
"It's Helen Perter. Good-bye now!" 😆

This is so weird I'm sitting at home laying in a bed feeling sorry for myself because I feel like crap and hear this lady is going to the doctor with the symptoms that I have

This is so cool!
Not only is this a sweet and funny movie, it also features a pretty Asian girl who isn't playing a racial stereotype.
Thanks

Yes, True! Up until 1970’s, then Radical Feminism changed the Western And Democratic Nation’s, even in Nation’s where Women had Equal Voting Right’s since the 1920’s.
Feminism created three strata of Women in Society viz. Extreme Feminists, Traditional Women, And, the Women who Blew Both Way’s!
My Grand Mother had Travelled Alone to The USA in the early 1900’s. But, she returned to her Nation in 1922 where she was treated as a Stranger. However, Grand Mother made a Good Marriage And together Grand Mother + Grand Father created Private Companies where my Intelligent Grand Mother was an Equal Owner Director. Grand Mother created her Equality , she didn’t wait Fifty Years for Extreme Or Radical Feminism! A Remarkable Lady! Thankfully she was My Grand Mother…Which has resulted in My Respect for ALL in Our Nation + Our Shared Earth! Obviously, Respect has to itself be Respected, Therefore, I Qualify My Respect by Each Person’s Actions!
A Real Lady, can be a Lady, without becoming an Extreme Radical Feminist, in My Experience!.
As A Man , I enjoy the Company Of Real People!

Watching from Virginia 🌹
I liked what you said about people in old day's dressed like. How I wish people old day's would come back
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm putting this back to watch when it's 20 degrees tomorrow.
3:50 “you’re so young!”
😂
Dorothy McGuire was always so pretty. I loved her in "Ole Yeller".
I was a JFk Era baby. Born in 1960. Couldn't have grown up at a nicer time.
I loved t!
The scene about an hour in where Jane is giving birth, apparently anaesthetised to the point of being unconscious, is horrifying! Makes me think of Twilight Sleep, a method of drugging women in labor that was popular in the early 20th century.
I had twilight sleep. In and out of sleep. Didn’t help the pain that much. Just better than nothing.
@@janet8418 I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I've read that the morphine used in the 'twilight sleep' cocktail didn't help with labor pains and often caused the women to become delirious to the point of needing to be restrained. I hope this wasn't your experience. Like treating morning sickness with thalidomide (my grandma was nearly prescribed this while pregnant with my mother but opted not to take it) sometimes medical interventions do more harm than good!
@@xxempress they gave me very little of Twilight. Baby came out very healthy with beautiful color. Next baby, different dr., don’t know what they gave but baby came out with an odd color, sort of bluish.
My mom talked about how they used to do that to women. I'd think that might hinder the bonding process! Of course, women were often kept a week or two in the hospital after giving birth, too. That might have helped!
Wow
Cute movie. Anyone else creeped out by that psychiatrist? What is his disorder? 😉
Trying to seduce married women syndrome?
The dinner party with the psychiatrist beginning @1:01:45 was hilarious! What a snake charmer! 🤣
This movie is hilarious
I don't like Bill, he's too naive and self-centered and I totally dislike his mother.
he sure was pig headed
I guess that if a woman wants to live comfortably nowadays she has to work hard too. Don't quit the day job.
Running an efficient, safe home & raising children successfully without letting them get screwed up by the world is a very hard job as well, but vastly rewarding & if you're lucky enough to have a man pay for your home & other expenses while your family building for the future it's well worth it. It's far easier to be a bad parent & spouse than a good one.
Marriage vows have a few phrases in them that this guy ignored. For one, marriage means you put your spouse above all other commitments.
Exactly
This guy lacked people skills. He ignored his female, medical technician's feelings for him. He ignored his female, housekeeper's feelings for him. He had no filter, barking out insults and orders to his wife at any time and place. People didn't matter in his world unless they broke through that wall by putting up a fuss.

You are correct. Your comment as a reply to mine is odd though. What you say doesn't rebut my point, and it doesn't support my point. I'll offer something to tie the two lines of thought together.
We have posted speed limits so people will know that going above the posted speed is considered dangerous and is to be avoided. Intelligent, and thoughtful people don't need posted speed limits, they drive prudently at all times. The doctor in this movie was neither intelligent, nor thoughtful. He needed posted rules to educate him on how to behave, and what to look for in other people. Without such rules being put in his face, he went about like a selfish jerk and had no idea that he was a selfish jerk.
Marriage vows are like posted speed limits. They make the rules of the marriage relationship clear. They are made clear, at least, to those people who think about the words of the vows they are required to say. Had a person he respected had explained what the marriage vows mean before he took them, he may have backed out of the marriage. Or, he may have taken them to heart and recognized that he needed to back out of the promise he made to the woman doctor in order to keep his marriage vows.
A person who cares about other people and pays attention to what they say, and do, will not need rules to treat other people well. But that person will also not resent swearing an oath to follow the rules laid out in the vows.
@@deezynar I'm glad that you understood my comment, and explained it in such detail.
As far as I’m concerned he did just that. Just not her way. Don’t forget, it’s a two-way street.
Great movie.i believe in minding my own business unless there is no harm coming to my children and there grown and for 2 men and women can be friends without no strings attached.most of the time.dont break up a happy relationship or friendship over something should of been avoided in the first place.temptation!

Drama Romance
2148 Did he just tell her to take a phenobarbitol for a headache???
Well the dr child protection used had my three year old daughter on it to keep her doped up while she was in foster care before I adopted her.
New too me! Love Dorothy
I ain't heard anyone caughing like that 😅
LOL! Me neither
@@TRoxanne54That cough was messed up.
Her cough was supposed to be obviously fake.
Whooping cough? That's some kind of a honeymoon on a train.
Yes
Her cough sounded like whooping cough.
I’ve had whooping cough and yes it was like that.
So that’s how it’s done🤣
wow; times were is different back in those days.
Cute romance!
Together again!
Irene Dunne and Cary Grant would have made this classic cinema.
It is a classic 😮
Charming movie, Dorothy McGuire and William Lundigan are both really good actors. But this movie was more than a little light on emotions. No real emotion when they married, no real romance or passion even on their honeymoon. No pride or emotion when he found out she was pregnant. No tears, real sadness or emotion from either of them when she was leaving him. And Neither of them shed a tear, or acted scared, or hysterical, when their babies were poisoned. His fellow doctors and nurses at the hospital showed more concern than they did. I assume it was a case of bad directing; as both are talented actors who portrayed their characters convincingly, albeit, without emotion.
without having seen it yet, I figured this to be the case. I think it's the style. You're suppose to feel the emotion without the actors overdramatizing it. Kinda the opposite of 1940's melodramas. The writing is suppose to get you and you're gripped with emotion. LOL my take any way...
En español por favor gracias
What a fake cough! 😂
Actually that’s what the beginning stage of whooping cough is like. It gets worse. Much much worse.
fony driving scene, all them long long dead ,buried and forgotten
????
This doctor (actor) looks like my oncologist from Oahu, what a nice looking fella.
