4.0 out of 5 stars Never Say Goodbye, January 4, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Never Say Goodbye [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a very funny comedy that I would recommend to any Errol Flynn fan, or, anyone that likes a sweet, family film. It has some familiar Warner Brothers character actors, a very young Eleanor Parker, and a pre-F Troop Forrest Tucker. Flynn is hilarious - starring as an artist specializing in pin-ups. He drinks, fights, sings, dresses as Santa Claus, juggles multiple women - it is really perhaps an autobiographical role.

Very entertaining.

This movie is among Errol's best, and by FAR his funniest!

5.0 out of 5 stars Never Say Goodby (1956 w/Rock Hudson), December 31, 2006

This review is from: Never Say Goodbye [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Everyone remembers their first kiss and their "first" time and for me this movie represents my first movie that I can actually remember. My step-mother took me to see it when I was but a tender lad of 10 in St Louis, MO.

This movie set in my mind a kind of will to find my own mother although at the time I had not a CLUE as to HOW, IF, or WHEN I would do this, I just had this intense confidence that I COULD and WOULD find her one day.

About all that I remember about this movie is the bombing of a European city and the loss of this little girls mother. I also remember the character Victor (I always thought he was played by David Nivens) as the little girls confidant and her pained frustration at not being able to understand why she could not find her mother and her resistance to the idea of her father's desire to marry this "outsider" and have her take the place of her missing mother. Of course the outsider was in fact her long lost mother from the war years.

Victor was the only trusted link that she had to her mother, as he knew her during the war.

At the end, as the outsider was preparing to leave the family as a failed endeavor at persuading the little girl to accept her as her "NEW" mother, the little girl asks Victor (he was a portrait artist and also did caricatures at her 8th Birthday party) to draw a picture of her mother as he remembered her some 8 years earlier.

Of course Victor did a charcoal sketch of the "outsider" and presented it to the little girl folded in half. As she looked at the image, she thought there was some sort of deception going on and she questioned him about his attempt to fool her.

I cannot for the life of me remember his actual response but it was in the form of a question of "what she wanted to believe". Sorta like the peasant girl in the film Dr. Zhivago not wanting to believe something if it were not true.

The little girl reconciled with her Mother and all ended well that started out so horribly.

For the record, I did search for, and found, my birth mother in Belton, TX in 1970. Unfortunately the ending was not the same, quite the opposite. But we must all search to ease the ache in our heart, the ache I saw and remembered in that movie some 50 years ago.

We NEED this movie on DVD. I'll trade you 4 Three Stooges and a Creature from the Black Lagoon to get it released on a DVD.
