Story Line
Plot Summary:
Just Around the Corner is the film in which little Shirley Temple ends the Depression all by herself! The story starts realistically enough, with 10-year-old Penny Hale (Temple) sharing a basement apartment with her widowed father Jeff (Charles Farrell, in his final Fox film). Once a prosperous architect, Jeff has been working as a hotel janitor-engineer ever since the Wall Street Crash. Ordered by pompous hotel concierge Waters (Franklin Pangborn) to keep her place, Penny nonetheless has fun wandering the lobbies of the posh establishment under the watchful and protective eyes of her friends, Kitty the maid (Joan Davis), Gus the chauffeur (Bert Lahr) and Corporal Jones the doorman (Bill Robinson). Having been told by her dad that the only person who can pull the country out of the Depression is Uncle Sam, Penny becomes convinced that goateed billionaire tycoon S. G. Henshaw (Claude Gillingwater Sr.) is Uncle Sam come to life. Charming her way into the heart of the irascible Henshaw, Penny convinces him to help the economy get started again. Not only does Uncle Sam accomplish this by creating thousands of new jobs, but he also manages to give Pennys father Jeff a new start in life, much to the delight of Jeffs sweetheart Lola (Amanda Duff). The films highlights are Shirley Temples always-delightul dance duets with Bill Bojangles Robinson less easy to take when seen today is the closing Buttons and Epaulets production number, performed by a chorus of servile blacks.

Definitely not one of Shirley's best...below average vehicle...There is such a lackluster quality about JUST AROUND THECORNER--everything from script to performances to the songs--is belowaverage. And Shirley is not quite as cute as the story wants her tobe--clearly, she is starting to develop into a chubby preteen youngsterwith just a modicum of talent left over from her earlier films as atot.Only a couple of the songs are pleasant enough to be worthmentioning--"A Happy Little Ditty" and "A Walk in the Rain" have thekind of charm expected in a Temple musical. But staging of the numbersand overall set decoration leaves a lot to be desired. Bert Lahr andJoan Davis are on hand as a chauffeur and a maid but both are defeatedby some flat one-liners. Charles Farrell is clearly past his career asa romantic leading man and is just so-so as Charlie's depressed fatheron the skids.For Temple fans only--weaknesses in both script and song numbers--andnot much else can be said for it. It's all very routine and quiteforgettable. |

Lighthearted Shirley Temple MusicalA precocious little moppet mistakes a misanthropic tycoonforUncle Sam. She believes that by helping the old fellow,Depression woes will cease for her father and the countryJUSTAROUND THE CORNER.This friendly, fanciful film was exactly what the nationneededto help it forget economic hard times. Shirley Temple isbright& cheerful, as always, and never fails to amuse. The talentswhich made her Hollywood's top box office draw for yearsareabundantly on display. Legendary Bill `Bojangles' Robinsonison hand with 3 of his celebrated dance routines. Watch,whenhe dances with Shirley, how she matches him step for step -amarvelous terpsichorean treat.Comedy is handled by Bert Lahr, Joan Davis (why aren'ttheyincluded in the climactic Benefit show?) & especially FranklinPangborn, in his glory as the quintessential harried apartmentmanager. Charles Farrell, a big star himself a few yearsprevious, does a fine job as Shirley's dad, while ClaudeGillingwater once again has fun with the part of a crotchety,rich old man. Cora Witherspoon scores as a society snob.Movie mavens will recognize Charles Williams as a persistentphotographer & Leonard Kibrick as Shirley's tough kid friend.Shirley, with help from Miss Davis, Lahr & Bojangles, sings&dances her way through `This Is A Happy Little Ditty' &`JustAround The Corner'. |
