Cute movie about a stong woman and a loving family in the day before strong women were cool:) Myrna Loy is great in both of these movies! William Powell was very convencing as an over protective and loving father!
A great family movie!

DOUBLE THE VALUE

2008-05-02
Two fine films of the kind that they certainly don't make anymore,good quality prints..Belles on their toes is as so often with sequels,, not a patch on the original, but well worth watching to complete the story..similar to the second Miniver movie..THE MINIVER STORY

Better than the new version

If I hadn't watched this right after yours,mine and ours I might have liked it better, but it just couldn't compare to that movie. This was all right-fairly humorous, Clifton Webb was great as Frank Gilbreth, father of 12.It was made in 1950 however, and it feels a little outdated.Still, MUCH better than the 2003 remake! A good family movie.

love this movie!

this is a wonderful movie, and the second one is just as good.
I love the idea of these two wonderful movies coming in a set, especially since this is the only place i can seem to find them at.

The Older Version is the Better Choice

Clifton Webb was most often case in dramatic roles. In ""Cheaper by the Dozen"" we get to see Webb in his comedic best. The original version of this film surpasses the newer one for many reasons: 1)the adults in the original had a wisdom and dignity sadly lacking in the modern setting, 2)the work ethic of the Gilbreth children is enchanting in the original, and, finally, 3) touching on the subject of death in the original adds even more depth to the story. ""Bells on Their Toes"" is not as unexpected as the original, but knowing more history about the Gilbreth family and their amazing mother is a nice sequel. This DVD should be in every family video library.

I'M HAPPY WITH THIS VIDEO, AND THE TRANSACTION AS A WHOLE. THANK YOU.

Great, classic movies

Well, I purchased these DVD's as a Christmas gift for my mother, and she loves them! They've always held a special place in our family, as she is one of 12 children, herself. It's my grandfather's favorite movie. They're great movies to watch as a family, and my children enjoy watching them as much as me, my mother, and my grandparents. You can never go wrong with great classics, like these movies are! I just wish I could have my 3 kids half as organized as these 12 were!

Again, I love old movies, as these two (2) movies are so very good, I wanted to own them, now I can watch these pictures back to back, the way they should show them on cable.
