Review of Life with Father (1947) by Bill T — 26 Mar 2008
Good, but slightly heavy handed story about a family headed by a slightly maddening Dad. William Powell is fine I suppose, and Irene Dunne is too, but the film is awashed in all sorts of religious righteousness that somehow is just strange.
It does have a few subplots I suppose (mainly involving Elizabeth Taylor) but it comes back to the "Woe to the people who haven't been bap-TIZED"), and soon becomes monotonous.
