Summary: FIVE STARS FOR FILM - NONE FOR DVD COPY
Comment: I guess misery truly does love company - because, after reading alot of these other reviews, I must admit I'm happy to see I wasn't the only one stuck with a terrible DVD purchase - from Amazon, who I've always trusted and never had a problem with. I love this movie and always viewed it on tv or my VHS copy, but I wanted to share it with a younger friend who'd never seen it and only had a DVD player. It was a dang good thing I decided to watch it before I gave it to her for viewing. The synchronization (dialogue to mouth) was terrible, like a lousy kung-fu movie ! And the worst part was that the pivotal courtroom scene - the one that earned Cary Grant an Oscar nomination (won't say more than that for spoiler reasons) was MISSING from the DVD. Gone...pffft - just jumps from the scene where he goes to court to the scene when he comes home. I was livid and sad at the same time. Never again. Folks - take heed from the others here and DO NOT BUY THE DVD. Buy the VHS copy which I'm certain isn't as bad..at least until the real thing is released.

Summary: Classic Cary Grant, good copy
Comment: This movie is Public Domain, so just finding a copy on DVD is an accomplishment. Paying less than [...] bucks for anything viewable is also an accomplishment. For the money, this is a good DVD to add to your collection. At least until and Remastered version is released.

Summary: Classic Cary Grant
Comment: When people of the generation of the late 30s and 40s say they don't make them like that anymore they are talking about movies like Penny Serenade. Granted that the style and conventions of film (and literature) must change with the times in what way have the new conventions contributed to better art or entertainment. In the rush to let it all hang out, subtlety and nuance (not to mention wit) have been erased in the name of a representation of "reality" as perceived and and humorlessly portrayed by the dour filmmakers of today. I happened to see Penny Serenade shortly after watching "In the Cut" (a highlight of which was Meg Ryan masturbating) and "Thirteen" ,children discussing the merits of putting rings through navels and genitalia. Films like those are as far removed from the median reality as Penny Serenade was from the grit of the Depression. The difference was that the latter could leave you smiling

Summary: I REMEMBER ALL TOO WELL!!
Comment: I've watched the movie Penny Serenade many times and I remember that when my husband and I lost our child in death, our marriage wasn't strong enough to endure the pain of it all. We didn't know how to communicate our grief and pain, instead we mourned the lost to ourselves to an extent each blaming the other, where there was no fault at all. In our pain, we said and did hurtful things to one another and in the end it destroyed our marriage. I watched this movie tearfully and I rejoiced that in the end this loving couple found each other and were blessed with another child. I know I speak for many parents when I say that the death of a child is a pain that is undescribeable. It has taken time, and much prayer, but now when I remember my beautiful daughter, I do so with happy tears and laughter. You see, she brought so much joy in all our lives, and left many wonderful memories for us to hold onto. If you are in pain and don't know how to share it this movie will help you get thru it.. I know it helped me. Since my divorce my exhusband and I don't speak about her. that used to bother me but not anymore. You see my guilt is over and now I am at peace!!!!

Summary: Penny Serenade
Comment: I love the movie "Penny Serenade" and decided to purchase a DVD for myself. However, when I watched it, there was a part in the middle of the movie that had been cut out. I was very disapointed.
