Review of I Remember Mama (1948) by Steve S — 03 Dec 2009
***1/2 (out of four).
A sentimental and loving look at motherhood without being overly melodramatic. George Stevens strikes just the right tone.
Irene Dunne plays the mother of a family if Dutch immigrants who settle in 1910 San Francisco. The oldest daughter (Barbara Bel Geddes) fondly reminisces about various situations where her mother came through in difficult problems.
Dunne is wonderful in the lead, but the entire cast comes through.
