I agree that Lady for a day is a great,memorable film,special in many ways.But,the significance of Pocketful of Miracles should in no way be diminished on account of being a re-make.The sixties differ greatly from today,when irritating blockbusters,re-makes sequels and comic-book adaptations unfortunately prevail.Pocketful of Miracles is a must-see for any Capra lover,classic film lover in general,and for all the people who still believe in miracles.I'm one of them and I truly believe that both Hollywood and Europe will live again through the films who would touch the people over the mental age of three,if you know what I mean.

Madame La Gimps sister is not such a doll as I will wish to have sawed off on me, and is up in the paints as regards to age, but she is also very quiet. Anyway, Judge Henry G. Blake says, being aristocratic will come natural to him. She informs that she is going to get married with the son of a Count, and her future father-in-law is coming to New York with them to visit her.

Emerson gets a big bang out of the idea, and he says to Dave the Dude like this: You not only can have the apartment, Dave, but I will come over and help you out. and Pocketful of Miracles is a real puzzle of fairy tales. Capra, certain he was the winner, ran to the podium to collect his Oscar, only to discover Rogers had meant Frank Lloyd, who won for Cavalcade, instead. This Rodney B. Emerson is quite a guy along Broadway, and a great hand for spending dough and looking for laughs, and he is very popular with the mob. So he hops right over from Newport, and joins in with Dave the Dude, and I wish to say Rodney B. Emerson will always be kindly remembered by one and all for his co-operation, and nobody will ever again try to hand him the phonus bolonus when he is buying champagne, even if he is not buying it off of Dave the Dude.

Blake, and he explains in Spanish to Mr. and Mrs. Conde and the others that Willie K. Vanderbilt is a very large millionaire, and Mr. and Mrs. Conde seem much interested, anyway, though naturally Madame La Gimp and Judge Henry G.

"Pocketful of Miracles" received three Oscar nominations. Bette Davis was one of the major supporters of Glenn Ford at the beginning of his career - A Stolen Life, did for his career what "Thelma and Louise" did for Brad Pitt's and one should remember that Davis sort of "imposed" Ford for that role. Beautiful Hope Lange is terrific and Peter Falk wears a coat that makes his character a shady relative of his future "Colombo". and as oasis in middle of the challenges of every day.

Blake (Thomas Mitchell) to pose as Annie's husband.

The title highly appealed to me and how can one say no to a film with Frank Capra and Bette Davis? It's adapted by Robert Riskin from a Damon Runyon short story called "Madame La Gimp." This commercial bomb turned out to be Capra's swan song, as he never made another pic though he lived to be 94. Well, pretty soon I hear Rodney B. Emerson bawling, Mister Willie K. Vanderbilt, and in comes nobody but Big Nig, and Rodney B. Emerson leads him over to the group and introduces him.
