Mickey Rooney was a great actor! He was excellent in this early effort. And what a career: movie dramas, comedies, musicals and television. A career that started as a child actor and continuing to his early adult and later adult years. Amazing, awesome!!

Mickey Rooney’s acting style has not dated at all. He was a great talent

Trivia: Mr Mathews is played by Frank Shields, was Brooke Shields Grandfather.

This was a treat. I didn't remember this movie so it was new to me.More kids should see this movie to see what real loyalty looks, and sounds like. They really don't makem like this any more. Simple and sweet and heartfelt.Thanks again Pizza Felix for bringing us the best Oldies ! 🎭 🤗 👌🙋🏽

Never seen this before.

I loved him when he portrayed Whitey Marsh! He really did that role!

It is very sad how people have treated world war heroes who come home sick and traumatized for all the violence they have been involved in, and things have not changed much today.

Very interesting movie which showed the effects of PTSD and also showed the importance of labor rights. Before they knew about how to treat PTSD it was called shell shocked. Not all understood it could lead to substance abuse or that it could trigger a flashback as the movie depicted. Management and labor settle dispute but Cap loses life in the process. Thanks Pizza!

What a special film to see; just an amazing talent. What a life that young boy had ahead of him.

Mickey Rooney made many fine films in his time, but I think this is My favourite. Thank-You!

I have never seen these, nor realised what a prodigy Mickey Rooney was. Thank you for retriving these films for us. Bob

What a great character! I found myself moved to the tears by the boy's sad scenes. And fun with his dancing and many other highlights among nice co -actors and actresses. Thanks.

As a Hoosier boy I was so glad to see this movie. Way ahead of its time.

This movie grappled with insights significant. PTSD, how character can either be forged or destroyed expressed by both the boy and his father. I liked the values this film advocated.

*I promise upon everything that's holy........Mickey Rooney and the precious people who made these classic films way back then...they achieved the greatest accomplishment that they could possibly fulfill. How? By creating a masterpiece...a work of art in the film industry in the spirit of fair workmanship, professionalism and honor...mixed with just right amount of love and good honest effort!!! The BEST part about it ALL is the clear fact that the reason why Hollywood was so successful back in the day and they're not so much nowadays...is because films back then had "HEART" and "FEELING" and "UNDERSTANDING" too. Ahhh!!!........How I wish that I had a REAL time machine...I'd go back to the 30s, 40s & 50s and I GUARANTEE you 3 details that would be TOTALLY different than they are in this day and age: (1) I'd have at least ONE TRUE FRIEND, (2) I may not have had a lot of money back in the day, but as my mom told me so many times: "Son, we didn't have much money, but we had LOVE." and now the BEST for last, but certainly not least (3) I sure as H3ll and Heaven wouldn't be still single at age 37!!! Most people didn't believe that their children should WAIT til they're 40 years old to ACTUALLY go out to dinner and a movie with an eligible young adult lady. Bye, nobody ever talks to me anyway. Everybody HATES MY GUTS because I'm a GODDAMN WHITE AMERICAN MAN...is what it.......HU?!?!?!?! Well, if it is then...YOU CAN GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!*

Mickey Rooney was 17yrs old during this filming

if mickey wasnt in this movie i might have missed out on an excellent show. this is just wonderful and mick is the man

This is so great a movie...I believe in the power of love and an understanding heart....it transforms lives❤️🙏🏼✝️☮️✡️😇

Pizzaflix. How did I miss this movie? Men were men and women were women, and actors were actors. The harsh realities of the evil actions of men are countered by the good side of men. We are half savages and half angels. Hubris is our Achilles heel.

What a beautiful woman in a beautiful movie livin a beautiful time

So his father whom was shunded by the whole town sacrificed his life, unknownigly to end the strike.... A REAL SOLDIER....SAD STORY. ....from a 74 year old sentinel.... born in INDIANAPOLIS, IND now living in run down BROOKLYN, NEW YORK....

Nice one thanks

06:53 - Frank Shields, Brooke Shields Grandad. He certainly gave her his good looks.

Apart from the bizarre teacher-student date, this was a very good movie.

Wow, Mickey Rooney was certainly slumming here. No idea he had worked at Monogram. The very same year he would hit gold with "Andy Hardy" at MGM and be one of the biggest at that elite studio. (Nothing against this movie, which I really enjoyed).

Remembering Mickey Rooney born on September 23, 1920. He was an American actor. In a career spanning nine decades, he appeared in more than 300 films and was among the last surviving stars of the silent-film era. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Rooney

Mickey Rooney - 17 years old. I was in love with him when I was 11. Got to have tight control of your gag-reflex on this film.

I would simply have said to the school board go ahead and suspend the son of a medal of honor recipient. that will put the town on the map for sure.

School teachers fraternizing with underaged students is strictly forbidden these days.

Rate 5.7 Drama

The actress who played the school teacher affected a pseudo British accent. British actor David Niven, in his biography ‘The Moon’s a Balloon’ mentioned the trend of Hollywood actors in the 30’s doing this. He was amused and somewhat embarrassed by it I think.

WHEN FINANCIAL CLASS DETERMINED WHAT SIDE OF THE TRACK'S ONE'S PLACE SHOULD BE ON *** WHERE UPPER CLASS SOCIETY WERE SAID TO BE RESPECTABLE WITH HIGH MORAL VALUES AND VIRTUE'S THAT GRANTED THEM THE PRIVILEGE TO LOOK DOWN ON HARD WORKING LOW INCOME FAMILIES STRUGGLING TO FIND THEIR PATH TO A BETTER LIFE FOR THEIR FAMILIES ***

the schoolteacher and mucked are the only really good actors

I have so many mixed emotions after viewing this flick. The bully called his father a communist! That's worth a whack. Then, his father dies while scabbing as a strike breaker. And, the spoiled rich kid just man handels the the teacher. She should have KHATF-out. Sharky was railroaded by the school board that RESPECTS the clout heavy milk man. I could get a masters on this film.

She called USA an Empire.

They needed a war to stop this demogogery. Huey long and rev. coghlin were air wave hits.

I remember watching all the Mickey Rooney movies with my Gramps when I was little. I came across this one and remember the tears he had in his eyes and I didn't understand then. He was a Marine and PTSD was not recognized back then. This movie made me cry and now I am in search of all the movies I can that we watched together. I love and miss him so much xoxo

Mickey Rooney was one of the most prolific and successful stars in Hollywood for years. I recall when, as an elder gent, he foolishly appeared on letterman; he laid his talented hand on letterman's sleeve during conversation and "dave-the-shumck" acted as though Mickey had leprosy and jerked his arm away saying, "DON'T TOUCH ME!" I'll never forget that creep's attempt to humiliate a man who was tenfold the talent that ol' pukish dave would ever be!

PTSD. It seems that in war, even innocent people can get caught in the crossfire and it must weigh on the consciences of people. If the soldiers were confident that they were only destroying bad people, would they feel bad about it, or feel good knowing that they have taken wicked people from the earth - in order to preserve the good?

Huh. The movie the Hoosier Schoolmaster has a kid named Shockey too.

This midget bagged more gorgeous Golden Era beauties than ANYONE during these years. He was also the top paid as well.

' The Magnificent Seven

They just rushed that ending. It's like well we need a dramatic ending - father stops drinking, gets a job, runs the truck off the side of the road because of the strikers, but it settles the strike, Mickey is still sad but relieved to live with his father being the "hero" of the situation, goes to live with somebody - all in under a minute, abrupt ending, show some flowers, now get out of the theater.
