1936 G 75 minutes
Very early Shirley Temple musical comedy about an orphan whose happy life with with the lighthouse keeper, Capt. January (Guy Kibbee), is threatened by a Margaret Sanger look-alike playing a mean government bully who decides the kid is much too happy and should be put in an orphanage. Fun flick with youngest Buddy Ebsen I’ve ever seen. And who knew he could tap dance?!









I LOVE that movie, and Shirley!
On the good ship lollipop. . .

Buddy Ebsen was a good dancer. He was supposed to play the part of Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz

I forgot to add that I really love that movie, and all of Shirley’s movies.
The other dancer who was prominent in her movies is the man known as Mr. Bojangles. He was a good dancer too.
