The entire film is available on Youtube. I'll allow for the weaknesses, knowing under what circumstances the movie was made. My seven out of ten is at least two notches too high.
My Movie Rating: 7 / 10A simple good-hearted film that kids, and those who love kids, love. And the acting is more than decent. (I did chuckle over the mean old lumberjacks marching and singing thru the woods.) What more to say?
According to TCM's David Osborne, it was made in 16mm and in Eastman Color by a small company that couldn't afford anything more expensive. Bless those little people.
