They don't make movies like this anymore!, September 9, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Shirley Temple Gift Set (Heidi, Curly Top, Baby Take a Bow) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I watched Shirley Temple movies when I was a little girl. I looked forward to those movies every Saturday afternoon and hope my own daughter will too. These videos teach values we are hard-pressed to find on TV today. Some may find them "hokey", but I still get a great deal of enjoyment from watching them. If you have a little girl, don't miss these!

A Wonderful Way To Introduce Anyone To Shirley Temple!!, July 29, 2002
This review is from: Shirley Temple Gift Set (Heidi, Curly Top, Baby Take a Bow) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a wonderful product! I recieved it as a birthday present from my parents and I loved it! It contains "Baby Take a Bow"-about a little girl who finds a stolen string of pearls and keeps them in her home for a nosy detective to find. Her father is accused of the crime. "Curly Top" is about a lonely man who adopts an adorable little youngster along with her grown-up sister, whom he falls in love with. "Heidi"...well you all know Heidi! The little orphan girl living with her grandfather who struggles to live a private life without people trying to take her away from him. All three films have been fully restored in colour with excellent sound quality...they almost match the standards of films from the early nineties. They all feature the darling Shirley Temple and come in a pretty red and gold box with cute pictures on it...totally worth it!!

Own The Best, January 26, 2005
This review is from: Shirley Temple Gift Set (Heidi, Curly Top, Baby Take a Bow) [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I own all of Shirley's movies her best and her worst- if you are looking into buying a Shirley collection than this is the one to buy! Although, I'll say I'm disappointed that it dosn't include "Poor Little Rich Girl" or Shirley's most classic-"Bright Eyes"(On the good ship lollipop). But, this has some of Shirley at her best.
Heidi- although an film made when Shirley was older. It shows off Shirley's acting talent as Heidi especially in the scene with her grandfather. It is the best film that Shirley made after the baby-doll era. And you'll be close to tears in the scene when Heidi is threatened to be taken away from her grandfather. You'll also love Heidi's grandfather who does a wonderful job in his role- I wish he was my gramps.
Baby Take A Bow- Is simply wonderful in this film where she showcases some of her cutest dance moves and her on screen chemistry with her dad- James Dunn my favorite of her on screen dads. You'll fall in love with Shirley as this little baby doll.
Curly Top- Shirley is so cute in this film as an orphan it features her classic "Animal Crackers In My Soup" Also chemistry with her other on-screen dad. Also features alot of Shirley's musical talents.
All in all this is a good Shirley collection to start with-- if you have little girls or grand- daughters this a collection they will love- sit back and enjoy some good clean fun with them.
