Movie Reviews of Love Finds Andy Hardy
Movie Review: Great period piece, and Garland before Oz!
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this series (Andy Hardy films). This one's got great some great scenes in it, like a local kid with a ham radio set who helps Mr. Hardy and Andy contact a kid in another city to get an emergency message to the mom, paralleling modern culture and the internet (the kids are more into tech than the parents). Other great scenes include when Andy is able to buy a car, and of course the big scene when Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland are at the dance and she turns out to be the belle of the ball. This movie (as with all the Andy Hardy movies I've seen) showcase the importance of the family, respect for elders and for the law (Andy's dad is a judge). They give a great glimpse into teenage life in the 30s and 40s (or at least one, popular, aspect of it). In many ways it is naive and saccharine, but it shows an America that valued family and personal responsibility, even if it wasn't always realistic. It's a great juxtaposition to the East Side kids movies, which are also fascinating slices of teenage life of that era. This DVD has a Christmas message from the Hardy family (intriguing in its breaking of the fourth wall), a radio promo with the whole theme song and a wonderful introduction by a Judy Garland biographer with Ann Rutherford (who played Andy's girlfriend... and Nancy Drew, in a whole different series!).
