Based on John Van Druten's hit play (derived from Kathryn Forbes's autobiographical memoir), the film is gorgeously rendered and quite moving as an act of memory. The sterling cast of character actors--Edgar Bergen, Rudy Vallee, Oscar Homolka, Barbara Bel Geddes, Ellen Corby, Cedric Hardwicke--add great texture and a depth of experience that make the film feel quite lived-in. Hardwicke's turn as a penniless boarder who 'pays' his rent by reciting from classic literature is a special highlight. --Tom Keogh Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Wonderful escapism with lots of realism I finally got around to watching this movie after knowing about it for some time and coming close to watching it once. I found it thoroughly delightful with just the right amount of sentimentality, not overly mushy. Being a book lover and especially of English literature, I particularly enjoyed the references to some of my favorite books.

It brought back memories of my family stories of life back then, when life was much less complicated than we have today. Irene Dunne was exceptional in her role as Mama, as was the rest of the cast. Wonderful family film. Rating: - A great movie. No drugs, no violence just a great entertaining movie from another generation. Did I say 'no drugs'? Well, there is coffee. I think you'll enjoy this movie. Rating: - I Remember Mama This movie is a classic and I remember watching it as a child, it's truely a family story, one you won't forget, very sweet. Rating: - One Of Those Perfect Movies Even though my family was English and French, I recognised each and every person portraid in this movie. I first saw I Remember Mama on the late movie back in the 50's when I was a kid and that era was still close enought to the time line of the story, that buildings and clothes were familier to me ( my great aunts dressed exactly like the women in the movie ). I don't know if younger viewers will enjoy it as much, but for me this is one of those perfect movies. I recently had occasion to to play I ...
