Helpfan65 Review of Journey for Margaret

Journey for Margaret (1942)

I Thought Kids In Those Days Were Brought Up With Manners

[1/10 · 16 December 2022]

I'm always hearing Baby boomers grouse about today's kids, how they're spoiled, entitled, etc., with the most common complaint being how rude they are and their lack of manners. Well the two kids in this 1942 film were just about the rudest kids I've seen in a movie. I felt so sorry for the old couple who wanted to take them in and bought them those nice toys. Margaret OBrien and the other boy just turned their noses up at them and were down right rude. And Robert Young was worthy of any modern parent and did nothing to correct their manners. Maybe today's kids are really no different after all.
