Never saw this movie until today. Young Bobs Watson, though deceased in 1999, certainly held his own with some top names in the movie industry. He was an exceptional little actor for his age. Of course many of the child stars did tolerable jobs, but like Shirley Temple, he was outstanding. The late 1930's through 1940's produced many great movies with these young thespians. Coupled with animals in a movie it makes for a multi-tissue viewing. Although the application of Death is certainly not scriptural, the love enjoyed by us all when we watch allows for author's license. Most enjoyable. A good weep never hurt anyone. Alice
