So, 'Molly and Me,' from 1945, is this quaint little film that somehow blends comedy and a touch of drama. You've got this lively actress who, in her quest for work, ends up as a housekeeper for a rather grumpy retired politician. The dynamic is pretty interesting, really. You see how her energy shakes up his rigid life, which is a nice commentary on the clash between old and new values. The pacing has this nice rhythm to it - not too fast, not too slow. The performances, they really carry the film, with the actress bringing a charm that contrasts sharply against the politician's crusty demeanor. It’s distinctive in how it plays with those themes of revitalization and companionship, though it's not groundbreaking by any stretch.
Good character study on aging and companionship. · Interesting dynamic between leads. · A snapshot of mid-20th century attitudes.
