Review of Three Smart Girls

Deanna Durbin's movie debut from 1936 on the Deanna Durbin collection DVD from Simply Home entertainment 2011. This DVD has stunning black and white picture quality and excellent sound, quite amazing given the age of the material. Deanna Durbin fame is less well remembered today but she became a huge star in the golden age of Hollywood, and in this movie it is easy to see why as she radiates wholesome charm and warmth. The plot is light and frothy as the three smart girls save the day and there parents while unmasking a gold digger. This is light entertainment at its very best, funny warm and very charming throughout. A great example of the polished production values and tight editing so effortlessly delivered back in the day. I loved it, and if you love the 1930's era of American cinema, and i am sure you will to.
