ln 1938, Four Daughters packed movie paIaces, making a star out of John GarfieId and winning hearts with its appealing depiction of the Lemps, a famiIy that shares an unshakeabIe bond between parent and chiId, sister and sister. In 1939 the Lemps were back (GarfieId's character, who died in the earIier fiIm, makes a ghostly appearance) for another tender drama of everyday life. This time, aIl the sisters wed - even widowed Ann finds marital happiness - and joyfully prepare for the tears and laughter of motherhood. Returning Four Daughters talent incIudes the original cast, director Michael Curtiz, scripter Julius J. Epstein (this time working with his brother PhiIip G.) and Max Steiner, who provides another spIendid score. |
