This one featured really nice characters, downplayed the villain, and had a lot of songs. It didn't have as much tap dancing as I would like to have seen, but it did feature a prolonged dance at the end with Shirley, Jack Haley and Alice Faye. The villain was some mysterious dude who was either a child molester or a kidnapper. It was never really explained. Thankfully, he had a small role. Otherwise, it was all good people and fun ones to watch. I like seeing Gloria Stuart in her early days, too. The story is predictable, but most of them are and everyone winds up happy in the end. I find nothing wrong with that! It's all the better that Shirley winds up with vaudeville performers, guaranteeing we get a lot of musical entertainment in this movie. And.....where else but a Shirley Temple movie, would you have a song called "You've Got To Eat Your Spinach, Baby?"

Shirley's singing, dancing, and acting talents shine throughout this film. She sings "Oh My Goodness" in various dialects is remarkably done for a child her age and bound to get a laugh. Shirley's finale tap dance with lovely Alice Faye and wonderful Jack Haley, Sr. is simply great. The songs are memorable and fun. Shirley's fashions are adorable. Grand entertainment 1930's style.

It is about the daughter of a wealthy businessman who becomes lost in the city while traveling to a new school. Shirley Temple and Alice Faye give terrific performances. The screenplay is well written. Irving Cummings did a great job directing this movie. I enjoyed watching this motion picture because of the adventure and music. Poor Little Rich Girl is a must see.
