    My Dad passed last year at age 83, I am turning 60 but watching this movie cracks me up...... reminds me of him... I swear he always seemed bent out of shape about his “son in laws” not being good enough.... then came the grandkids, then the great grandkids.... the weddings (for such a gruff IBM guy...he couldn’t disguise his tears walking us girls down the aisle). The sarcasm my Dad displayed wasn’t always welcomed but now that I am getting older...I get it! As ridiculous as it sounds, I felt very awkward being pregnant and showing....even though I was married and my husband was in college - clearly, my Dad had a raised brow.... we were too young, too dumb....I don’t think he could ever reconcile in his mind how his girls “got in the family way”....too funny.

      there is one benefit to being older....living in the time when these movies depict....it was golden from childhood to adolescence to adult. Spencer Tracy was the Dad you wanted, cause he didn't text you, do selfies of himself or ignore his kids in a restaurant while glued to his I-phone. Because he wasn't living for I he was living for his family. You weren't ignored by self absorbed people who are turning into robots.

      Lol... ok Cassie G. I noticed the spelling glitch, & for a flash instant, I felt grammatically compelled to offer the properly spelled correction. However, I knew that every person reading comments, was aware, & assumed that the commentor was also aware, of the slip, & winced when he read his comment, after sending, & laughed.

      Here's a nugget for those who missed it: As the grandparents-to-be are dropping possible names for the baby, Doris mentions Laurie or Laurence from Little Women. Both Joan Bennett and Elizabeth Taylor played Laurie's wife, Amy March in the original and remake.

    32:40 The ideas about childbirth and infant rearing that the Elizabeth Taylor character talked about in this scene were treated in the film as comic relief. Yet, when I had my children in the 1990s, those views were respected and encouraged by the doctors and midwives who looked after me. I don't know what it's like today, but to this day, I am thankful that I received the benefit of their wisdom.

      Elizabeth Taylor was going through a very rough time off screen then. She had just separated from her first husband and that's because he beat and kicked her, causing her to miscarry. Imagine her playing a pregnant woman and having to hold a baby afterwards, while mourning the one she lost in real life

And someone ask me what is that dog doing up there. Just like pictures of George Washington use to be everywhere. And saying the Plege Aleadgence to the Flag in school. I use to talk to old people back on the 70s all the time, because they were kids not that long after the civil war. I never had kids because of over population, now look were we are at. It is vanity to have so many children.
