    If you see this for the 1st time now, you'd probably think "How derivative is THIS!?!?" And it seems to be...a man and woman get married, they have problems with money and whatnot, she gets preggers, the baby gets sick and there's a rush against the clock to get the meds before s...( read more)aid baby cashes in. Only you'd be dead wrong. It's the OTHER million films you've seen this in since this one was released that are derivative. And this one is just about the best of the lot, made during that magical year of 1939 like it was. What movie WASN'T good that was released in 1939?

It deals beautifully with some of the problems marriages face when starting out, as well as having enough light humour to kee...( read more)p you entertained. Definatly worth a watch if you have a free Sunday afternoon.
