    I was a voracious reader until my only child passed away. Reading no longer occupies my senses enough to keep my mind from drifting to sad, sad places. So I watch old films. My gratitude to those who bring them to us is immeasurable. Losing your only child is life changing to an aging disabled person. And very, very lonely.

      Thank you for your comment. I am disabled and now old. I have two young sons. One is in difficulty but I still hope the best for him. I appreciate your comment which makes me realize how fortunate I am, and how I must not give up on my love for my children, and continue being devoted to them as long as I live. Whatever the outcome of our family, to love them to the end is our identity.

      I find old movies lovely. I like the simplistic story and acting and music and the sets. They don’t make them like this any more. It takes time to enjoy being an individual again. It took me 15 years after my husband died. But slowly I became one instead of half a person. Completely independent of needs. It is worth the because few people really get to know whom they really are. It takes complete independence and time and you live a full ire with no regrets. Get yourself a wish list and start ticking them off before you too are out of time. That’s all life is, enjoy every thing the wind blows in your direction.

      Same here. I used to read every day but things have happened that have traumatized me. I love these old movies. They take me to a place of calm and inner peace. I love the architecture, the clothing, the cars, the deportment and manners of that era. It was all so civilized. Today's world is so rude and crude. I'm glad I lived when I did. Tomorrow's world holds nothing attractive for me. It's all about use and abuse, and the intentional destruction of everything worth having in one's life. These movies are the last breaths of fresh air and I'm ever so grateful for them. 😊

    Thank you, ACM TV for this Easter Sunday treat during this dark and bleak COVID 19 hour. There's never a dull moment in this timeless classic, is there? The difference between the actors of yesteryear and the so called "stars" of today: those of the gold age, in addition to being blessed by natural talent, worked hard at practicing, polishing and perfecting their skills to deliver peerless performances over and over again. They served their real apprenticeship - their baptism of fire if you like - where it really mattered: ON THE STAGE and, thereafter, made the seamless transition onto the screen. Today, all one needs, it seems is a pretty face!

    Thanks very much for making this available. Richard Attenbourough looks pretty young. Supposed to be 1938 and unbelievably the Nazis were in Europe when this was filmed. Skinniest turkey I ever saw..
