This one is badly in need of restoration.. the sound, picture, and editing are just HORRIBLE! historically, it's quite interesting for the big stars in here, Freddie Bartholomew (the son) and Edward Horton (the father). Davey (Bartholomew) wants to marry Carol (Jill Browning, who only made a couple films...), but the parents are feuding. It's corny and goofy.... kind of a comedy, but not really. its pretty dated. The parental units find out the sons may have been switched at birth, so somebody might be marrying their own sibling! never really gets going. so much talking, and the "comedy" is so forced. So much talking. it sounds like it may have started out as a play...? you may also recognize Mr. Tweedle ( Charles Halton)... he was always the prim and proper landlord/judge/teacher/justice of the peace. and a female judge. that was actually way AHEAD of its time. It's okay. not so funny, but entertaining. Directed by Ralph Murphy. showing on Moonlight Movies channel.
