I almost didn't watch this film but continued with it out of curiosity. I'm glad i did as it was a very honest depiction of a single mother's/young widow's life and how in the end things came right with a bit of faith in herself. A good old film, thank you for sharing.
I absolutely love these old black and white movies. They are quite wholesome and upright . There is no cussing!!! Thank you for bringing them to us. I love them. It is so refreshing and it makes my heart happy to watch good,clean films .
There were many war-time tales such as this that didn't turn out so well. I was later adopted out of an orphanage and given a life I'd never have known otherwise~ thank GOD!
Never seen this wonderful film. Great! Great! Great! Lovely in unsettling ways and a commentary on choices without being preachy. Thank you for shari g. It touched my heart. 🙏🌹😍
So I wrote a quick emoji reply after the young flyer treated her so well despite her circumstances and her admission to having robbed him the night before, which was also the night they first met! Amazing start to the storyline right there, and then the story went in a direction I didn't know was possible in 1946! It's how she changes her life that makes it great.
I looked up who the story was by, which I always do, and I see it it was written by Adela Rogers St. Johns. What a career she had as a writer and journalist. I'm amazed at how many women writers there were, actually, for the times. Her father was Earl Rogers, the famous criminal attorney, who was the inspiration for Erle Stanley Gardner's, "Perry Mason". One thing leads to another. Amazing. This is exciting Friday night stuff! :)
By Adela Rogers St John --- that's fascinating. I like to look up stuff too, and read UA-cam comments for odd bits of knowledge such as where a film was made, or whose house was used, or a commenter was an extra or on the cast or crew. * One writer of films back in the day was Leigh Brackett, I discovered her one day while reading science fiction. Born in 1915, Blackett wrote Rio Bravo and the Long Goodbye as well as space opera: including an early draft of Empire Strike Back. 🌞
They dressed so nicely back then. The women had really nice hairdos and the men were clean and well put together. How times are different! Sad. Such a lovely and hopeful movie!
@@loro3849 In the movies they may have looked more polished. But go look at street photography or photographs of every day people from that time. My grandmother lived during the 1930s and 1940s and believe-you-me, they were VERY elegant, not like the legging, trashy, ugly, colorless styles of today, not to mention the current ugly sneaker fashion. Even in the 1980s people (except for in the US) only wore sneakers when they were exercising.
@@bitasheibani5905 There were well dressed folks whose pictures were featured and there were "street people" who were less formally dressed.Though I remember in the 50's and 60's we still "dressed" for Church (hat required), Sunday dinner, and to go visiting, only wore slacks for leisure wear.Women had to dress in dresses or skirts for work and school.Shorts were seldom seen on adults unless they were at the beach or playing sports. I enjoy seeing the current generation wearing vintage clothing, but I'm not going back to it.
@@cathyfield4765 if only the current generation wore vintage clothing! To me, it's all about taking care to groom oneself, wear clothes that fit nicely on the body, wear colors other than black, grey, white, red and blue, and wonderful, creative stiches and fun patterns. You don't see that now! It's so bland. It's all about men wearing shorts and flip flops and women wearing leggings made of thin stretchy material with their big butts out of proportion to their legs, and not combing, or styling one's hair and wearing sneakers. This is what I dislike. I find that dressing nicely makes one feel better and behave better. Today's clothes have spandex in them, they are cheaply made and are really loose fitting. The clothes don't flatter people. The designs are boring. I definitely get my inspiration from the past, not just because of the nostalgia of it. I don't buy any ready-to-wear clothes anymore. On an aside, I love hats AND the gloves; beautiful kid leather gloves.
Another home run, PF. A simple, charming drama that I'd never heard of but grabbed me from the beginning. It was more than an hour before I realized I hadn't taken my eyes from the screen. I don't know how you find these gems but very grateful you do and then share them with us. LL ☺
This is the first time I've heard of this movie, but now it's on my list of favorites! Wow, when she saw her daughter walking for the first time...tears in my eyes! Thank you so much.
Lead actress performance among the finest anywhere. From naive innocent to fallow jaded woman and then to genuine inner peace. Incredible work! And the early scene where the young innocent girl lets go of the flower and it falls down several flights was so gorgeous to me. It was not only incredibly cinematic but made the perfect metaphor for her innocence being lost in such a poetic way. One of my favorite shots in history.
I'm so glad there was a happy ending. Looking back over my life... much of it was very hard to watch, but that all faded away at the end... The end made me smile😊
Hello I liked the film very much but it brought back some memories when I was young and had a baby LOL I was married though but the after I got divorced I lived with my mother and I worked as a nurse and did go out oh my days off but I was only 17 18 and it brings back does bad memories but my daughter is 70 now and I'm 87 and we've been close for many years now she's married and and her and her husband live in the same apartment building as me and they take good care of me I took good care of her son off and on through the years to it's a back-and-forth thing and I raise my grandson from my son he lived with me for 30 years so I guess I paid my dues thank you for the movie good night
wildflower527 She got it together inspite of having a mother that was a poor example then gave her no help with the baby. I resist the temptation to judge the mother's mother too harshly since we don't know her story. The lesson is that we can become better than we are if we choose to when we are given the chance.
@@terry4137 That’s a little harsh, no? All mothers, especially single mothers, need help with babysitting sometimes, and there is no better care, in my eyes, than the grandmothers.
@@g-girl9867 I have no problem helping my children out. The girl who just had my sons baby wont let him bring him around. Hes two months old. Her baby her family can see him. Im good enough to watch his other child when she dont want him around but not the baby. Sick of little snit nose so called women having kids and using them to control people.
Heartbreaking to realize so many young men never made it home from war and the children they left behind. When she said she had to take his picture out just to remember what he looked like, it froze me. Other than that it was a very good movie ❤
Great Story. A mother's Love has no boundaries. Hard lessons growing up. Life is fragile 💔 Great ending OUT lived a broken heart very nice ending Janice Harley
This film is worth watching if only to see the old San Francisco streets and buildings, the cars, trolleys, cable cars, trucks and old buildings, the Bay Bridge, neighborhoods. It doesn't look like this now. There is so much more in the story told.
Thank you PizzaFlix. I love the black and white classics: the entertaining storylines, the outstanding actors, the atmospheric realism conveyed through the depiction of the fashions of the day, the motor cars, the street scenes, the restaurants, the houses …everything. Now if there’s one thing I cannot stand, it’s that bloody awful, obnoxious in-your-face music that spoils an excellent piece of work. It’s a pattern that recurs through most of these film classics. Why did they do it? Was it meant to heighten the intensity of the drama? Or was it what the audiences of the time wanted? Perhaps so, but did it have to be so excruciatingly loud and noisy! Most of the time, I have to keep a firm hand on the volume control to mute it when the music bursts in out of nowhere … or increase it to follow the dialogue. There are so many of these fine films, spoilt through the loud and excessive music. Well then, I guess one can't have it all. All things considered, I still love these films and shall continue watching them for many a day.
Today’s version would be a bisexual empowered woman with lots of sexual partners working long shifts while raising the kiddies by different fathers and Different races . 😂
Thank you for an excellent film, with everything that is needed to make one feel good at the end, wish they still made this type 0f film perhaps we would have less problems and have more faith in th future.
I just want to thank you, in general! I had to give up TCM because I no longer have cable, can't afford it.! I love classic movies of all kinds and you have a variety. I especially like Film Noir. Some people curl up with a book and a hot cup of tea. There is nothing more comforting to me, than the classics I use to watch with my mom and dad as a kid. I noticed you have TV series, too. I will have to check them out, too. Many blessings..😊
James Dunn was always a magnet in any film he appeared in. So glad to see him here. Antheil's music..... Very adventurous for film. Especially nice to see when Americans went to houses of faith portrayed in a positive way.i. And, a happy end!
This was a great movie, today it's a gift to come across a good clean movie, although I'm sure back in those days this was considered a bad girl movie, what a difference from then to today I remember my Mom saying to me " In my day we knew men were men and women were Women ,Hmm today it's hard to,know who's who..Thanks Pizzaflix you never dissapoint...
yes, it was easier to tell the difference between the sexes. Men wore short hair- anyone with long hair were ridiculed and beaten. Crossdressers like Ed Wood had to do their thing behind closed doors- or again risk ridicule, beatings, even death. There were gay people then too, only same thing here- ridicule, ostracisation, beatings, and death if they did not conform.
MAY CONTAIN SPOILER: PLOT On Mother's Day, 1946, a woman known as Ziggy Brennan looks back on her life. Eight years earlier, her vain and corrupt mother Natalie asks Ziggy to pretend they are sisters. Together they trick men out of money. Ziggy takes a liking to a con artist, Denny Reagan, and steals a soldier's watch that Denny admires. The watch's inscription gives Denny a guilty conscience, so Ziggy gives it back to Mart Neilson, the soldier. He asks her on a date, which leads to marriage and imminent motherhood. Mart, however, is killed in the war. Ziggy is warned by Natalie after the birth of baby Martha that she is not fit for motherhood. Denny is now doing time in a penitentiary, so he is no help, either. Ziggy likes to go out every night, leaving Martha with an irresponsible young babysitter. Martha nearly dies from an accident. A landlady's testimony results in the baby being sent to an orphanage. Ziggy attacks the landlady, complicating her life more. By the time Denny leaves prison, he is a reformed man. He tracks down Ziggy and finds that she has taken in an abandoned child, caring for it. Together, they appeal to a court for a second chance, then leave together united as a family.
planetizationrising what a DUPED soul you are. The 'Elite' love the way you think. Blame the state of the planet on ordinary people while the rich exploit both us & it & then try convince the sheeple it's all our fault. Well done - they have you!!!! Don't dare try to infect anyone one else with your ill informed propaganda.
Good film, even brilliant in the part where she enters the church and her eyes... her eyes .say it... Mona Freeman is brilliant. I've even been through the church scene myself, the last gasp.. a very good film.
June Duprez was great as the uncaring mother. Great scene locations from a 1947 San Francisco, much more beautiful than is the case today with all the violence, homelessness and drug problems. Mona Freeman was also a noted artist. One of her paintings still seen today is that of Mrs. See on See's Candy Boxes. A larger print of the painting is generally on display in every See's Candy Store. She dated Bing Crosby for a while, but the relationship didn't come to much. This story was written by the noted Adela Rogers St. Johns. Overall a very good cast with an interesting story that could have only been written just after World War II.
Nope .. my husband was 29 years older than I we had six terrific children and a very happy 32 year marriage until his death in 2011... I miss every day and night .. .. .. don’t judge
Many women look young for their age 🤷🏻♀️ I had a great grandmother who every one says she looked really young for how old she actually was. I don't know how old the characters are supposed to be so I can't comment of that specifically.
Lol... its sort of famous! Famously appreciated... A fave of many Classic film fans. Like yourself, me & thousands of folks, preferring Classis & retro to Modern day whatevers....

Funny how he took her out every night and didn't check too much on the babysitter...yet blames the mother totally for going out...well, she was with HIM!!! They could have stayed in with the child and had dinners...tv....also he could have asked her to marry him. Idk just thinking out loud....what a world.
Old spiteful women called the authorities, young baby sitter taking the money and not doing her job. Man dates an unmarried mother, treats her well, but hey lets blame men for womens awfulness.
+christorpher84 ... It's no different from contemporary Romantic Comedies. And there have been plenty of dramas addressing these themes and with better acting and more complex character dynamics/story lines as well. Some may not have happily-ever-afters but they're certainly not "horseshit." Just saying.
I almost didn't watch this film but continued with it out of curiosity. I'm glad i did as it was a very honest depiction of a single mother's/young widow's life and how in the end things came right with a bit of faith in herself. A good old film, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
I almost didn’t until I read your comment thanks for sharing 💜⭐️💚. I seen this before oh well I’ll watch again 🤗🤗🤗
Amen
You sounds like a very loving mother and a kind, caring person. My Mum was a good 'un too. Lucky me, lucky you 🙏🏻
Being a widow is quite different from screwing a lowlife who can make babies and not support them which is the true reality of single-parenting.
I absolutely love these old black and white movies. They are quite wholesome and upright . There is no cussing!!! Thank you for bringing them to us. I love them. It is so refreshing and it makes my heart happy to watch good,clean films .
One thing I like about old movies is no swearing or bad language..
I am no prude but I love how old movies show without showing .
You mean post code movies ....precode ...well ....
I am sure people swore.. Just NOT in the movie !! 🤣🤣
Totally agree, the language and sex scenes are disgusting!
@@lynnbrannan4578 Absolutely. It lets the viewers use their imagination - to each his own.
There were many war-time tales such as this that didn't turn out so well. I was later adopted out of an orphanage and given a life I'd never have known otherwise~ thank GOD!
Funny how things turn out in life sometimes. Glad it all worked out for you. Nice Week-end to you🧡☮
You were truly Blessed!
So glad to hear this.
David Rice - How wonderful! It is touching to read your comment.
I was adopted too. Thank God we were adopted, abortions break my heart....

That was an excellent movie!! Loved it💘💘💖💞Damn I love old movies! You just can’t beat the great acting and great stories💖💖
I don't watch modern movies, only these black and white gems from yesteryear. The old British films from the same era are also worth watching.
Let us not leave out the beautiful clothing everyone wore. Men looked wonderful and women did as well, and were ladies.
You are exactly correct😁
Wish they still made movies like this. So many good lessons and examples and so real with the babies crying at the end!

That’s amazing how all that connected. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of how the story wraps itself in so many layers that we don’t see.

MAY CONTAIN SPOILER: PLOT
On Mother's Day, 1946, a woman known as Ziggy Brennan looks back on her life.
Eight years earlier, her vain and corrupt mother Natalie asks Ziggy to pretend they are sisters. Together they trick men out of money. Ziggy takes a liking to a con artist, Denny Reagan, and steals a soldier's watch that Denny admires.
The watch's inscription gives Denny a guilty conscience, so Ziggy gives it back to Mart Neilson, the soldier. He asks her on a date, which leads to marriage and imminent motherhood. Mart, however, is killed in the war.
Ziggy is warned by Natalie after the birth of baby Martha that she is not fit for motherhood. Denny is now doing time in a penitentiary, so he is no help, either. Ziggy likes to go out every night, leaving Martha with an irresponsible young babysitter. Martha nearly dies from an accident.
A landlady's testimony results in the baby being sent to an orphanage.
Ziggy attacks the landlady, complicating her life more.
By the time Denny leaves prison, he is a reformed man. He tracks down Ziggy and finds that she has taken in an abandoned child, caring for it. Together, they appeal to a court for a second chance, then leave together united as a family.
Must you run your mouth & spoil it for everyone else
You can tell her mother was a teen mother herself
Fantastic!!
I couldn't wait till she got her baby girl back !
Heart warming! Thank you.
Great film. She had a had time but discovered what was of the greatest importance. Family.
Just love these films, thank you .......
A wonderful movie. ! There is no greater and noble calling than being a parent. It's the most important and rewarding adventure one can ever have.
Planetizationrising; Why not talk to people who give a damn about your opinions? BTW, are you related to Debbie 'blabbermouth' Schultz?
planetizationrising what a DUPED soul you are. The 'Elite' love the way you think. Blame the state of the planet on ordinary people while the rich exploit both us & it & then try convince the sheeple it's all our fault. Well done - they have you!!!! Don't dare try to infect anyone one else with your ill informed propaganda.
I’m no spring chicken and love old movies. I don’t remember seeing this wonderful movie.
Just hearing the intro music 🎶🎵 alone was calming. It caught me off guard. I guess it reminds me of very happy peaceful times.
Good film, even brilliant in the part where she enters the church and her eyes... her eyes .say it... Mona Freeman is brilliant. I've even been through the church scene myself, the last gasp.. a very good film.
June Duprez was great as the uncaring mother. Great scene locations from a 1947 San Francisco, much more beautiful than is the case today with all the violence, homelessness and drug problems.
Mona Freeman was also a noted artist. One of her paintings still seen today is that of Mrs. See on See's Candy Boxes. A larger print of the painting is generally on display in every See's Candy Store. She dated Bing Crosby for a while, but the relationship didn't come to much. This story was written by the noted Adela Rogers St. Johns. Overall a very good cast with an interesting story that could have only been written just after World War II.

Very much enjoyed Thank you.
😢🙏💕✝️ God does help us in the most unexpected ways. That one small step from us towards Him is all it takes! Great movie. Love it. Thank you. Shared.❤
Rosalind Ivan is perfect here, as always; there's no more hated witch in cinema!
Sooooo, it doesn't creep anyone else out that she looks like a teenager and he looks way past old enough to be her father?
Nope .. my husband was 29 years older than I we had six terrific children and a very happy 32 year marriage until his death in 2011... I miss every day and night .. .. .. don’t judge
Agree.
Many women look young for their age 🤷🏻♀️
I had a great grandmother who every one says she looked really young for how old she actually was.
I don't know how old the characters are supposed to be so I can't comment of that specifically.
I admit I cried! A wonderful film. Why isn't it famous?
Lol... its sort of famous! Famously appreciated... A fave of many Classic film fans. Like yourself, me & thousands of folks, preferring Classis & retro to Modern day whatevers....

Funny how he took her out every night and didn't check too much on the babysitter...yet blames the mother totally for going out...well, she was with HIM!!! They could have stayed in with the child and had dinners...tv....also he could have asked her to marry him. Idk just thinking out loud....what a world.
He did ask her to marry her in the end, but I agree with everything you said, it was the babysitter fault not the mothers
Old spiteful women called the authorities, young baby sitter taking the money and not doing her job.
Man dates an unmarried mother, treats her well, but hey lets blame men for womens awfulness.
Thanks for the upload !!
fantastic what a little gem none of the horseshit you have today
+christorpher84 ... It's no different from contemporary Romantic Comedies. And there have been plenty of dramas addressing these themes and with better acting and more complex character dynamics/story lines as well. Some may not have happily-ever-afters but they're certainly not "horseshit."
Just saying.
sweetie pies that comment is horse shit
you're a crew of horseshit lovers
Oh how people tend to love the past no matter how detached from reality it may be.
😂you said it!
Loved this movie!! Very good, feel good movie
I miss San Francisco the way it used to be!
I would love if they would showed Denny mom with them
marvelous!! thanks for the movie; i enjoyed it pretty much! where are those type of guys that look after you and are proper and respectful?
