Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Good cast, competent direction can't save this seemingly interminable nostalgia flood.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Irene Dunne and William Powell have captured to a considerable extent the charm of the play by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse.

Curtiz knocks it together without so much as breaking sweat.

Rating: 4/4 --
Powell is nothing less than magnificent as the mustached philosophizing patriarch, and Dunne casts a warm glow beside him.

Dunn and Powell are adorable, musty charm in this sweet family classic.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Four Oscar nominations went to this 1947 classic about a stiff Wall Street financier running his family with a bookkeepers precision. Featuring a top tier ensemble that includes William Powell, Irene Dunn, Elizabeth Taylor, Edmund Gwenn, and the indomitable Zasu Pitts as Cousin Cora, this whimsical tale was directed by Michael Curtiz (Casablanca, Yankee Doodle Dandy) and shows you how much humor can be found when a family realizes their uptight patriarch was never baptized!
