DVD Reviews of Love Laughs at Andy Hardy
DVD Review: An episode in the life of young Andy Hardy
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the 12 capers of Andy Hardy movies starring Mickey Rooney, which started production in 1939. When Andy Hardy returns home from service, his mother Emily Hardy (Fay Holden), and his father Judge James Hardy (Lewis Stone) are thrilled to see him back. Under the watchful eyes of his parents, Andy shows clear signs of a typical young man who is in love. All he wants to do is go back to college and ask his beautiful sweetheart Kay Wilson (Bonita Granville) for marriage. Things go awry whenever he tries to pop the question. Meanwhile he makes new friends at the college, and dates a much taller Coffey Smith (Dorothy Ford) who is beautiful and gracious to Andy. She offers some fine performance not only as Andy's date for a freshman dance at the college, but also as a great friend. The dance scenes with Coffey Smith are hilarious as much as the way his parents try to discover who his love interest is. Ultimately Andy discovers the real truth that his girl will not be his wife because she is getting married to a much older man for wealth and money. Disappointed and hurt, Andy tries to go to South America to work, and nothing changes his mind until he finds out who his new employer will be. Lina Romay offers another excellent performance as young family friend, Isobel Gonzales who shows interest in Andy, but the friendship remains with no luck for romance.
There is some excellent writing by William Ludwig. I highly recommend this to any parent who is in a desperate situation to talk to their sons or daughter being dumped, and they are planning to join the army or go elsewhere. The conversation between James Hardy and Andy Hardy gets high points as he makes so much sense to young Andy without hurting his feelings. The fatherly advice is very mature and thought provoking.
