From the start, Shirley Temple had what the camera loves: bright eyes and a curty top, a magical presence and irrepressible charm - and an amazing talent. President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, proclaimed that "as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right." She was the star of more than forty motion pictures, most of them made during the 1930s before she had celebrated her 12th birthday. The recipent of a special Academy Award for her performance in Bright Eyes. Shirley Temple became a unique symbol of American movies and a joyous tonic for a nation greatly troubled by the Great Depression. She was a household name throughout the nation an the world.
Today I reviewed "Little Miss Broad Way" a music movie refleted how music and dancing which stands for optimistic attitude towards life important to all of us.
Be optimistic
Don't be a grumpy
Smile and happy
And when the road gets bumpy, just smile
Your troubles can't be as bad as all that
And when you're sad as all that
Nobody loves you.
Be optimistic
Don't you be a mourner
Brighten up that corner
And smile, smile, smile
Don't wear a long face. It's never in style
Be optimistic and smile.
Your honor. I lay my case before you
With a show you're invited, now to see with me
It's a wow one, I hope that you'll agree with me
Their business, show business just comes to no business without backing.
That's all they're lacking
All they need is a chance
A chance to smile, to laugh, to sing, to dance
And that is that, and that is all
So thank you for the use of the hall
