Make a Wish
(1937)
Overview
While vacationing at a boys' camp, the rambunctious Chip Winters befriends a famed composer Johnny Selden. Stuck for an inspiration for his latest operetta, Selden at last finds it when he meets Chip's gorgeous mother Irene Winters, a popular singer. Alas, her stiff-necked fiancé Walter Mays refuses to allow her to return to the stage, whereupon Rathbone spirals into a depression -- and even worse, a profound case of writers' block.

Now, ordinarily, I'm with Herod when it comes to kids, even more so when they have a leading role - and sing, too - but Bobby Breen ("Chip") is actually rather good as the young man wit… read the rest.
