America's Sweetheart

America's sweetheart, Shirley Temple, delights and entertains us with three more movies in her Sweetheart collection. Availiable in both color and black and white, the only thing missing is widescreen presentation.

Not Only The Greatest Child Actress. But The Greatest Actress Ever.

I just finished watching this volume 3 collection and want to wholeheartedly endorse it.
I had read some reviews that the picture quality and sound was not so good and was doubtful if I should buy it, but bought it all the same as I had enjoyed the other two volumes so much.
Well I was not disappointed at all. The sound quality was very good. Try listning to it on the stereo option on the on-screen menu.
These are three of her very best films and you will laugh and enjoy them so much.
My wife never ever heard of Shirley Temple till 2006 when I introduced her to Shirley's films and now we both are big fans and look forward to these re-releases.
'The Little Colonel' and 'The littlest Rebel' both have the excellent Bill 'Bojangles' Robinson acting and dancing in fine form with Shirley.
Bill worked out the dance routines in all these three pictures but only stars in the above mentioned two.

No one grabs my attention like Shirley. It's a whole combination of things like her smile and laughter, her dancing and mannerisms and she cry's so realistic that you would think she is really upset (but no it's just our Shirley doing her stuff, excellent as useual).
Shirlet Temple is a gale of fresh air in a very stale and cynical world and her films will restore hope and confidence to you in the human race.
Why not check out her official web site and send her an e-mail. She's still going strong.

Great movies

My daughter wanted some Shirley Temple DVD's so I purchased America's Sweetheart Collection. I was very impressed with the movies and would recommend them to everyone. My daughter has watched them over and over several times and she still enjoys seeing them.

Shirley Temple Dimples,Round the Corner & Susanna

I am from the era of Shirley Temple movies. It's great that I have an opportunity to purchase these volumes so easily and with prompt delivery. I have my favorite movie but still want to have these in my "library", maybe for my granddaughter.
