Nick M A mother leaves her daughter, Jeanne, in the care of her nursemaid to go on her honeymoon... for 5 years... then expects to be able to pick up like nothing ever happened, but the woman who now considers Jeanne her daughter has other ideas. There are some cute moments here, but ultimately the film is a pedestrian one that attempts to shoehorn far too many elements into its 90 minutes to really do justice to any of them. Mary Pickford is fine, but even she can't turn this sow's ear into a silk purse.

This comedy/drama really shows her versatility as an actress & how truly talented she was. The story of a Belgian tram like girl moving to the US with all the troubles that come with it...this film was also partially directed by Jack Pickford Mary's brother. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This mother and daughter drama is a predictable, yet sweet, story. Pickford does an okay job in a role she often played. The rest of the cast seem to be possibly non-actors, with the exception of Menjou, of course. Overall, it's an okay movie.
