Youngsters rooney, bartholomew, cooper.... all pretty big names for child stars in holly wood in the 1930s. Prim and proper british student claude wants to join the gang of the local boys, but they see him as a rich, snooty, outsider. Back when bullying was okay! The kids finally accept claude, so they visit someone's aunt uptown. And sing a silly song, and tap dance, which is kind of weird, and doesn't really belong in this film. There's some good acting, and some pretty bad acting. Most of the storyline is pretty silly and way over the top. When they get into trouble, will they all stick together? Interesting mostly for the chance to see these big, early names in hollywood. Directed by woody van dyke... died young at 53, by suicide. Story by rowland brown. It's okay.
