What a beautiful, beautiful film. We need to watch films about the past, for many reasons. Lifestyle and environment were very different but values, the importance of dreams and goals, and the complexity of relationships haven't changed all that much. It's a reminder that the human race has always been adaptable and resilient. It reminds us that people everywhere wish to strive and succeed and create a stronger and happier next generation. Francie is one of the most lovable and relatable characters that has ever been on a film screen. We hope and dream and cry with her. She represents all young adults who must cope and learn to find the light in an often crushingly harsh world.
