All Things are Possible...
A sweet, sweet movie. Margaret O'Brien is simply wonderful in this classic. She pairs well as June Allyson's little sister. O'Brien could have been as big as Shirley Temple but Hollywood didn't know what to do with two child wonders during the same time period. Everyone would like to have a little sister like her. ...Jimmy Durante, there will never be another. He was the epitome of vaudeville, a true delight to see again in this movie as his happy personality shines through in every scene he is in. This is an inspiring Easter movie with a tender message of mercy to those that believe. It's different and most enjoyable with the classical music and performances of the piano and conductor great, Jose Iturbi. Everyone is beautiful in this movie. I think you will love this innocent movie about our talented female musicians standing in the gap for our young men who were drafted or enlisting during the WWll years.

A movie of Faith, Hope and Great Music
I love this movie. I've watched many old movies and love this one. It is very heart-warming and a movie of faith and hope. It isn't one of the popular old movies, but one of my favorites. The music is wonderful! Also, it gives us a serious glimpse of what WWII wives went through and those who care about them.

A feel-good movie
This a delightful movie with two of my favorite movie stars, June Allyson and Margaret O'Brien. Margaret was such a good little actress for her young age and June is always a joy to watch. The story line is great and wholesome. This is a movie that can be watched by young and old and everyone will feel good about it when it is over.

enjoyable
I enjoy older films. The cast of characters in this film are wonderful. The story is slow to start but makes up for it later in the film with everyone enjoying the youngest character in the film. Love Jimmy Durante.

Heart warming WWII morale booster, with great classical music and an outstanding performance by Margaret O'Brien
This is a heart warming morale booster from 1944, a mix of weepie and comedy, but most of all a terrific showcase for the music of masters like Debussy and Chopin. But for me, the jewel in the crown is child actress Margaret O'Brien, who hams it up beautifully as the little girl accompanying her pregnant musician sister on a US tour with a symphonic orchestra. The sister is played with equal skill by girl-next-door beauty, June Allyson, who is unaware that her female colleagues in the orchestra are hiding a telegram saying that her husband is missing in action in the WWII Pacific. Real-life conductor, Jose Iturbi, plays himself, and Jimmy Durante is there to provide warmth and comedy. It's unashamedly sentimental, and little Miss O'Brien is perhaps given slightly too long a rein at times, wringing the comedy and pathos for all it's worth. But I didn't mind - she's one of my favourites, and I'm not surprised she won a special Academy Award that year for Outstanding Child Actress. Oh, and no prizes for guessing the ending.
