Maureen O'Hara ("Julie) and John Payne ("Bill") are

Maureen O'Hara ("Julie) and John Payne ("Bill") are a happily married, successful, theatrical couple for whom all is going well until she starts to feel a bit poorly. It transpires that she has an heart condition, so she decides that it might be a good idea to adopt a child so her husband will have someone once she has gone. She alights on the rather high maintenance "Hitty" (Connie Marshall), a girl with lots of fantastic dreams of unicorns, and whose heart is in the right place. Bill, initially, doesn't take to the youngster but as things run their inevitable course, the three of them must all learn to adapt. There are a couple of fine supporting efforts from William Bendix as "Uncle Don" and some gravitas from Sir Cedric Hardwicke as her doctor; and for the most part the drama is paced well and the production adequate. O'Hara doesn't quite work for me here, though - there is little chemistry between her and Payne; and the whole premiss of the film I found too far-fetched, even cheesy, for me to enjoy. It certainly lives up to it's title, and is frequently peppered with the eponymous, and charming, song but it's was all just a bit too schmaltzy for me.

What More Can I Say!?!

I think that the beautiful comments left here already describe this wonderful movie perfectly, so all there is left to do is to tell you about the last time I watched this movie.It was less then 24 hours ago, and I was reminded of two couples by Julie and Bill.One couple was Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, because Ozzy is the more fragile of the two, and Sharon hopes to have beaten her cancer completely so that she can stick around and take care of him.Another couple was a young couple of college age who were very much in love, but the woman was killed in a tragic automobile accident.Her boyfriend was with her, but he survived.Two decades, give or take, have passed, and he's never found anyone else who can take the place of this special woman, and he has a lot of emotional conflict going on because of this where he doesn't always respond to people who care about him in the best of ways.I even thought that Bill resembled him in physical appearance.Hittie could represent any of us who care about this special guy and want the best for him, because she commits herself to trying to ease Bill's deep-seated pain.Watching the movie this last time got me to thinking about this precious friend, and I ended up writing him an e-mail just to let him know I was thinking of him.
