I must have seen it before I became an inveterate credit-reader; I didn't remember that it was directed by Ida Lupino. Nice essay.

The Trouble with Angels really does have a perfect blend of humorous sequences with touching moments. June Harding wrote letters home to her mother during the making of the film and later posted them on her website. It's a fun read if you like to find out a little more behind-the-scenes info on the movie : <br /><br />http://bob.machighway.com/~junesgor/JunesgorillaStudioinBlueHillMaine/_..a_page_for_Angels.htmlThe Metzinger Sistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10728879307994086409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8799060793812204452.post-35989200703608169402017-04-01T09:17:08.518-04:002017-04-01T09:17:08.518-04:00One of my favorite movies from my childhood.

I would love to see it on the big screen again some day (do you hear me TCM Film Festival?). And you're correct Ida Lupino's direction raised the level of what could have been a hokey comedy, elevating it to first-rate entertainment.

This film is especially dear to me because when I was a young teenager I, too, wanted to be a nun and seeing Mary's struggle with making her decision to follow that path really hits home. Plus, it has all those fabulous quips! I'm sure Roz and Gypsy Rose must have discussed her mother....considering the type of woman she was I don't see how they could keep from talking about her!The Metzinger Sistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10728879307994086409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8799060793812204452.post-23695085190242087992017-03-29T17:27:17.781-04:002017-03-29T17:27:17.781-04:00Thanks so much for joining in with this fascinatin...Thanks so much for joining in with this fascinating chapter in Ida Lupino's career.

The professionals involved - Lupino, Hannalis and cast combined to create a delightful film.<br /><br />I've always wondered if Roz and Gypsy Rose ever discussed the movie Gypsy if they had any down time together.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.com
