Brief synopsis, via IMDb: A couple's big dreams give way to a life full of unexpected sadness and unexpected joy. The film's female lead Irene Dunne once said, "One thing about Cary, he was afraid of sentiment. He was leery of a scene with the little girl in 'Penny Serenade' in which he had to break down and cry. The director, George Stevens, had to convince him that he would never regret having exposed his emotions." Cary Grant considered his role in this film as his best performance. Veteran character actor Edgar Buchanan appears in an early credited role in this film as Apple Jack. He would go on to work in film and TV for the next 30 years. His most recognizable role was that of Uncle Joe in the 1960s TV series "Petticoat Junction." Summary from the DVD case's back cover: Penny Serenade is a very compelling, well-made tear-jerker, told through flashbacks. It depicts the marriage of Cary Grant and Irene Dunne, from their happy beginnings to the eventual break-up, due to the various tragedies they shared. Cary Grant was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role for his work in this bittersweet film. User review, IMDb: One of the best films made. 1941 was a phenomenal year, not least for this film and Grant's marvelous performance. Call it melodrama, but it's the stuff of life, heartbreak, and love and helpless vulnerability. How unfashionable. I could watch Edgar Buchanan wash that baby a thousand times. Find me one actor with enough life experience today to do that scene. Just one. Independent films today often seem to strive to make the point that human drama is about the struggles and relationships of private life. We call it "sentiment" when studios made films about this sort of drama and what's ultimately important on the most private level. I happily combine multiple items for shipping.
