- A kind of human Lassie Come Home: doggedly watchable but not inspiring, especially since it was shot in Canada.

  A wonderful film
  
  Warm, moving human drama.
  
  The cinema at its best.
  
  Disney does not mean it is for kids alone. It's for real people too.

  Railroad movie!
  
  This movie set during the depression in the USA has an engaging young star. Did she make any more films - I must look after writing this review?
