Billie Burke netted a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for her batty portrayal of the family matron. Constance Bennett is a delight as the zany daughter and Clarence Kolb is incredibly acrobatic for his age as the put upon husband and father of the group.
And Brian Aherne should have netted an Oscar nomination for his breezy and inventive comedy performance - a gem. The film netted five Oscar nomination in total: Supporting Actress, Sound, Song, Art Direction and Cinematography. This is a delight from start to finish!
|
Not a remake of the 1917 Mabel Normand vehicle of the same name, Mickey was based on Clementine,

redheaded Lois Butler, whom Eagle-Lion Studios was trying to build into
a major name. During her awkward transition to womanhood, Mickey Kelly
takes time out to find an eligible wife for her widowed father George
(Bill Goodwyn). Of the two likeliest candidates, bitchy Lydia Matthews
(Rose Hobart) seems to have the inside track, but Mickey vastly prefers
down-to-earth Louise Williams (Irene Hervey). The best performance is
delivered by Skippy Homeier as Hank Evans, the boy who awakens Mickey's
own amorous yearnings.

|
My Marriage: In this crime
drama, a girl whose father was murdered by gangsters wants to marry
into a rich family. Her fiance's mother hates the idea, but consents to
the marriage so that she can break it up later. However, she changes
her mind about the whole thing when it is revealed that her other son
was involved with the murder.
Wild Gold: This off-beat romantic melodrama contains elements of comedy not
usually found in the genre as it tells the story of the love between a
show girl fleeing from her husband, a grifter. She heads to a mining
company and ends up involved with a dam engineer. When a dam
accidentally breaks, the engineer's wife is conveniently swept away.
Happiness ensues. The flood footage was lifted from The Johnstown Flood (1926).

Mitzi Green Fights Like a Boy! Director Norman Taurog was developing quite a specialty directing kids during the early talkie era, and lucky for us he kept coming back to it. NEWLY RICH (aka FORBIDDEN ADVENTURE, based on Sinclair Lewis' LET'S PLAY KING) is one of the more obscure examples, and deserves our attention.
