... Read more
Mickey Rooney delivers a powerful performance in this moving coming-of-age tale set during WWII, based on the best-selling novel by William Saroyan. In an effort to support his family while his older brother, Marcus (Van Johnson), is away at war, Homer (Rooney) gets a job delivering telegrams for the local telegraph office. His sensitive manager, Tom Spangler (James Craig), and an elderly and wise drunken telegrapher, Willie Grogan (Frank Morgan), help Homer face the painful messages that are often tapped across the telegraph wire as he learns to accept the harsh realities of war. With the help of his faithful widowed mother (Fay Bainter), Homer navigates his new job while enduring the joys and defeats of high school in his small and charming hometown of Ithaca, California. This poignant vision of life in 1940s America, poignantly directed by Clarence Brown, follows the miniadventures of Homer's family, including a late-night rendevous between his blushing older sister Bess (Donna Ree

The Human Comedy (1943) Mickey Rooney, Frank MorganDirector: Clarence BrownCo-stars: Marsha Hunt, James Craig, Fay Bainter, Van Johnson, Donna Reed, Henry ONeill118 minutes, Black and WhiteDVD-R: Region ALLSloppily sentimental in spots and brilliantly moving in others, overall this is a wonderful film, thanks to Rooneys fine effort and to the little boy that almost stole it all from him on celluloid, the marvelous "Butch" Jenkins. Ray Collins is the narrator of the story, speaking from somewhere in the spirit world since hes been dead for two years when he decides to return to the family homestead in idealized Ithaca, California. He oversees the lives of his family, consisting of wife Bainter; grown son Johnson, a private in the Army; daughter Reed, a college student; teenage son Rooney, a high school junior; and precocious four-year-old Jenkins. Close to the family is Johnsons childhood sweetheart and the girl next door, Dorothy Morris, and Craig, the operator of the local telegraph office for which lovable drunk Morgan works and Rooney delivers telegrams when not in school. Theres also John Craven, who has been orphaned and is Johnsons service pal, who is later "adopted" by Collins warm-hearted family when Johnson is killed in battle. Its a study in everyday life and presents the little joys of childhood, the triumphs of adulthood, and the everyday tragedy that the war brought with telegrams delivered by Rooney, telegrams that meant only one thing--death or wounding of a loved one. The burden of delivering these heart-tearing missives wears so heavily upon Rooney that, at one point, he thinks of leaving home, but his little brother innocently talks him out of the notion. Craig is solid as the supportive telegraph office boss and Morgans whiskey-laced, down-home philosophy is both quaint and humorous. Rooney is sensational as the human link between families as he makes his rounds via bicycle, touching one life after another and being touched by each person he meets. The emotion he poured into, this, his finest role, shows in his youthful admiration for big brother Johnson, love for mother and sister, and protective tolerance for kid brother Jenkins. Jenkins himself almost takes every scene from the ebullient Rooney.This was MGM mogul Louis B. Mayers favorite film. His favorite scene of was the opening where "Butch" Jenkins is peering in rapture at a gopher hole. From the first moment producer Arthur Freed introduced Saroyan to Mayer, the mogul was taken by the fast-talking, utterly charming Armenian from Fresno, California (the actual setting for THE HUMAN COMEDY), and Mayer later asked Freed to offer the writer a job at MGM. At the time Saroyan was the rage, an enfant terrible who bluntly spoke his mind and whose stories captivated the American reading public in the late 1930s. His tempestuous talkathon play, "The Time of Your Life," won the Pulitzer Prize in 1940 and his career shotd upward. Freed came back to Mayer, telling him that Saroyan didnt want to write for the movies, a stance Mayer could not understand. He told Freed to offer Saroyan $300 a week just to hang around the studio (and basically spend his time amusing Mayer with his Armenian stories, which reminded the mogul of Jewish family life that was no more). Saroyan took the job, such as it was, but never showed up at the studio, let alone dropped by to pick up his paychecks. Freed finally tracked the writer down in Fresno and convinced him to write a story for the studio. The result was "The Human Comedy" which Mayer had read to him three times, weeping at each reading. Mayer wanted to film the story instantly but Saroyans asking price of $300,000 was astronomical at that time. Mayer met with Saroyan and offered him $50,000. He later compromised and paid Saroyan $60,000, plus $1,500 a week for writing the script. Mayer told his cronies that he would turn Saroyan into another Irving Thalberg, a bright new producer-director. But when it came time to commit himsel

This classic film is about comedy teams staring Laurel and Hardy, Burns and Allen, Abbott and Costello plus many more comedy teams. A comedy team is a comic pairing in which humor is derived from the uneven relationship between two partners, usually of the same gender, age, ethnic origin and profession, but drastically different personalities or behavior. Often one of the duo members, the straight man, feed, dead wood, or stooge is portrayed as reasonable and serious, and the other one, the funny man or comic is portrayed as funny.
