If she isn't the cutest little girl in the world, I don't know who is. And to be able to sing, dance and remember lines at such a young age, is amazing.
In her own words, Shirley loved people so she was able to show that joy at a very young age. Shirley had a lot of energy and her mother enrolled her in dance classes to give that energy an outlet and the rest is history. RIP Shirley, God is probably already thinking of enrolling you in dance classes again!
+John Doe She was very articulate and a talented actress as a very young lady. She may not have had a great singing voice, but that didn't matter. She was an excellent dancer as well.
She is just gorgeous. I get that dance steps can be learnt by repetition but how can a 4 year old know how to act so well with perfect timing, amazing.
*Little Shirley had SPUNK & the CUTE Factor... There'll never be another like Shirley (Good Actress,The Cutest Smile, Dancer, Singer & Comedian) :) Shirley Take a Bow*
She's so natural She talks alot about this in her autobiography. In her first scene when James Dunn pauses, he had forgotten his line, "oh" Shirley prompted him and the director left it in. You can see the spit curl down one side of her forehead when she's singing She fell and down and got a scratch there right before filming the dance. Her mother made that dress and they got the scene in 1 shot. She was ecstatic over getting to wear white tap shoes They became her trademark shoes in most films
She is always happy and did not feel burden when act. She enjoyed her time in movie, effortless. That"s why she became a great woman also. Some child star gone to wrong direction because they lost their childhood time but she did not, her movie is her playground for her. Great talented star!
It is so sweet!!! In this movie Shirley Temple was very young. You have to watch it untill the end to see her dance-performance with James Dunn! Such a good thing!!!
From this movie to Baby Take a Bow, she has grown up already. I can see it watching this to her other two movies with Dunn, which by the way, I love their chemistry working together
Jimmy Dunn truly adored her and loved her so much offscreen. Thats what you see on screen, it was a real love for that little sweetheart. He was a powerhouse of looks and talent.
This might be the best demonstration of the proposition that stars are born, not made. If poor old humanity can resist exterminating itself long enough, Shirley should be blowing video-watching minds with this performance for centuries. A singer whose every note is delightful, and a dancer whose every move is fun to see. Un-toppable charm and grace!
Beginning of a legendary career... this was her only part in the movie and she absolutely stole it. She was signed to a contract literally hours after doing this scene.
She did 3 movies with James Dunn. Two in which he played her father and in one "Bright eyes" he played her Godfather and her characte'rs name was always Shirley
On this day in 1934 {April 19th} the Fox movie "Stand Up and Cheer!" had its world premier in New York City... And on May 4th, 1934 it opened in theaters nationwide... It was Shirley Temple's debut movie and the premier was just four days before her 6th birthday... Between 1934 and 1949 she appeared in 37 featured films and in 1935 she won the 'Juvenile Award' at the Academy Awards... And in four days she will celebrate her 85th birthday {April 23rd, 1928}...
Interestingly, Shirley Temple's 'Baby Take A Bow' performance was reused six-years later in Temple's 1940 film 'Young People'. For this purpose the original 1934 footage was cleverly re-edited and intercut with new shots of Jack Oakey and chorus.
This 1934 film is best known for providing the first big breakthrough role for the legendary Shirley Temple. A little known bit player before the film, by the end of the year, she appeared in 10 movies, including 4 starring roles in major feature-length films.
Elizabeth Lopez If I believed in reincarnation my 3 year old would be her today! She dances and sings exactly like Shirley did. It's unbelievable! Just randomly whenever, and I have no idea where she got it from. Which brings me to UA-cam to search up Shirley Temple videos to show her, and she is like a deer caught in the headlights watching her! ❤️
You can really see how this film launched Shirley where her previous ones had not. This was the first to really show off her talent and showcase it. In the earliest scenes she could sort of just be another "cute kid" on the screen, but when she comes out and sings and dances, it must have just blown audiences away! We know ST so we expect it, but she was a total surprise. People came back to see this otherwise mediocre film JUST to see Shirley in that scene. :)
@Gianetta oh i know that she had a few short films, i was just wondering if this was her first big movie she starred in, just wondering cause shes so young here =)
@MsLittle1105 At that point in time it wasn't something they really worried about. Children were more obedient and did as they were told, and people were more likely to watch out for any who seemed lost.
She's the greatest but we can only be grateful Fox never allowed her to be in the Wizard of Oz. She would have been better than Judy but now we have both.

In an interview Shirley stated how much she loved working with James Dunn who treated her as a “peer.”
God bless them both😇😇

One can definitely see how she became a star. When she died, I cried. She was such a doll baby
Shirley sure could melt your heart. It's so nice having all of these clips to stumble upon from time to time.
how is it possible for one child to be THAT beautiful?!

She is so sweet and clever.She can sing, and dance, and act naturell, and well she had to grow up, but its nice to watch her old movies.
I loved her movies when I was a toddler as if she was my friend, and now that Im grown up, I can enjoy what an adorable toddler she is.
It is so sweet!!! In this movie Shirley Temple was very young. You have to watch it untill the end to see her dance-performance with James Dunn! Such a good thing!!!

Giann little miss broadway
I would love to see all of her movies. I am in my mid twenties and I've been lovely Shirley since I was a preteen. Thanks for this clip

Cute, lovely, and charming beyond words! Shirley, RIP.

I really like James Dunn...so charming...and always a good match with little Shirley
by the time she was 17 (Bachlor and the Bobbysoxer) she was stunning
She aged so gracefully! She was 6 here
What a prodigy. Simply amazing talent. Cute as a bug!
Just adorable and very talented.
Yes he is :) and he is in other 2 movies as well! I think him and Shirley got along perfectly and that's why he is all the movies! I like him.

My favourite actress of all time!
I think the guy playin her dad is the same guy who played the family friend (Loop) in Bright Eyes
Yes, he is. He is also the dad in "Baby Take A Bow" (1934)
His name is james dunn. he did many many acts with shirley.
"woooah!"
She was such a gem!
HOW THE HELL CAN A KID BE THIS DAM CUTEEEEEEEEEEEEE
cutest child ever R.I.P love u
So talented.
Shirley's appearance in this movie (a film which isn't very good outside of Shirley's appearances!) made her a star.
R.I.P. pop love you forever. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
#TakeABow ...Pop
Essa garotnha era fantastica. naturalmente talentosa.. queria muito ver um video dela traduzido ou legendado.
Love the 30s lingo. "How's chances?"
어쩜 얘기가 저렇게 춤도 잘 추고
노래도 잘하고 연기도 절할까
Old Rose from Titanic at 2:11. You can totally tell too in her voice when she says, "And I like you."
RIP sweet Shirley❤️❤️
Most brilliant dance pairing!
Nice to see an intelligent, well raised little actress.
I'm miss you Shirley Jane Temple 😢😭💐🇮🇳
she was so adorable. MY twin. we looked so much alike thats why I loved her so much.

!cuanto talento y belleza en esa pequeña muñequita!
I will Always Love you, Shirley!
She now is old enough to be my grandmother now but she was the cutest child i have ever seen so doll like !
shes gorgeous!
Wow she was only 4 years old or so there and she dances better than most adults
I know a little girl you looks so much like shirley same curly hair and an infectious laugh her hair is just a little red though :)
SHIRLEY'S 1ST FILM AFTER BEING "DISCOVERED" AT 3 YRS. OLD! SHE DIED IN 2014 AT 85. LONG, CARING, GOOD LIFE! GOOD SHOW SHIRLEY!!
a Little Legend!
This is me, Shirley Temple, Loretta Burris Ferguson held captive in Victoria, Texas.
She and Jimmy Dunn were SO good together!

I love how she says daddy
What Cute Little Child America's Little Darling RIP Shirley Temple America's Sweet 💓😘

yup and her dad again in baby take a bow. they did another movie together too, change of heart before this one
I Love you Shirley Jane Temple 💘
I love her soooo bad sooo cute too:)
shes sooo cute
Who’s the girl at 5:00?
After. This is from "Stand Up and Cheer" (1934). War Babies was released in 1932.
"WOAH!"
@Gianetta oh i know that she had a few short films, i was just wondering if this was her first big movie she starred in, just wondering cause shes so young here =)
CUANDO VEIA LAS PELICULAS DE SHIRLEY TEMPLE QUERIA SER COMO ELLA
+Katerine Fiallos era muy talentosa...
she is so good
RIP Shirley Temple
OMG she's so cute =9
teresaGT j
So lovery
Très bon film mettre en français
"look my apple" jajajaj very beautiful ...
Shirley is phenomenal--what a little winner! But I have to say--those "doll leg" costumes the women were wearing @4:40 were a tad creepy. :P
how old was she in this movie?
Yes
Was this before, or after War Babies? Because she looks very different in this one!
@MsLittle1105 At that point in time it wasn't something they really worried about. Children were more obedient and did as they were told, and people were more likely to watch out for any who seemed lost.
Wowsa!
was this her first film ??
Why is aunt jemima in this film?
I think the actress billed as ''Aunt Jemima'' was hired by Quaker Oats to promote the pancake mix.
She's the greatest but we can only be grateful Fox never allowed her to be in the Wizard of Oz. She would have been better than Judy but now we have both.
