Man Up!

This is a great movie. It follows the adventures of a spoiled rich boy, whose luxury cruise liner sinks. A fishing boat, captained by Lionel Barrymore, picks him up, and puts him to work...something this kid's never done. Spencer Tracy is one of the crew that tries to toughen the kid up...no easy task. So buy this film, grab the nearest Momma's boy, throw him on the couch, and make him watch this one. It may not do any good, but it's a darn good movie.
Alpha Video -- full-length DVD version

The Alpha Video version of this DVD is 102 minutes long -- full length. The Little Lord Fauntleroy story of adventure, discovery and love is well known -- but the variation in length and quality of its DVD incarnations is NOT so well known. I believe the bad reviews of the DVD were for other versions. I bought several, because Amazon listed this version with a running time of 98 minutes, and I knew the film length was 102. What a surprise I had, after buying other versions, to find that THIS version contains the full length -- 102 minutes! The picture transfer was very clear, and the sound mostly good.
I have found that frequently, among oldie films or controversial films, there is great variation in length of releases given on DVD. The description on the case of THIS version says it is 100 minutes long, when in fact it is 102. Usually, the reverse is true. Sellers have no way of knowing the actual length of what they sell, when the case itself is incorrect.
One famous website indicates 11 versions of "Little Lord Fauntleroy" DVDs. It gives the correct running time for this version -- 102 minutes -- even though its own case does not. I have found errors in many sources of information, including Amazon.com, concerning DVDs. I am glad I found THIS version of this film, despite the errors of description!
For now, Anchor Bay out-of-print title is best version available.

If considering purchasing this title, the Anchor Bay DVD is the only decent print of the film on the market.
Although MGM Home Video appears to currently possess the license for the Selznick films (previously marketed by Anchor Bay), they have yet to release a new addition of Little Lord Fauntleroy.
Whatever you do, avoid all other cheap, public domain releases. The quality is awful!

This DVD was of excellent quality for a movie produced in 1936. Very enjoyable family movie.
Positive Over Negative

I've seen three versions of Little Lord Fauntleroy. It is a great story of how positive triumphs over negative. This is an excellent version. Having seen the newer color versions (1980 & 1995) before this black and white (1936), I was afraid it might not hold up, but it was every bit as good, if not better than the newer versions. I highly recommend this version of the movie. I'm glad I purchased it and will enjoy watching it many more times.
