I Remember Mama (1948)

The family goes as Mama goes.

[7/10 · 10 May 2003]

Astounding. Enrichment of the heart. George Stevens directs this sentimental drama about a strong woman(Irene Dunne)guiding and holding together her Norwegian family in San Francisco in the early 1900s. Outstanding cast and well acted. The other players include:Barbara Bel Geddes, Oskar Homolka, Philip Dorn and Ellen Corby. You may also recognize Rudy Vallee and Edgar Bergen. A black and white classic that hits home.
