Summary: very poor quality
Comment: I was very disappointed with both the visual and audio quality of this DVD. It was startling to see the difference between the intro by Stevens's son and the main film. It appears that no effort was made to find a good quality print, let alone do a restoration. The extras are pitiful and would lead one to think that Irene Dunne had no long history of film roles behind her (which she had) or that Barbara Bel Geddes had no future after this film (which she did). And what of the stage play? Did I see a glimpse of Marlon Brando in that hastily shown photo (this play was his stage debut). And what of Oscar Homolka's role in the play and the film? He was brilliant. Rudy Vallee was also a standout and an oveview of his film career would have been a worthwhile addition. It's a shame that the people who issue these oldie goldies aren't aware that a lot of us weren't even born until many, many decades later and that we want/need all that "filler' information. A history of the play, a history of the players, as well as a bit of social commentary on the times depicted would greatly aid in the appreciation of this film. Without proper context it seemed syrupy and manipulative. I hope one day it will be reissued with extras and a sharper picture and clearer audio (I needed captions to follow the first quarter of this film). This version smacked of Madacy or Front Row rather than a studio release. Don't buy this until a better version comes out.

Summary: I Remember Mama
Comment: I watched this movie with my 17 year old daughter. We both found it very touching and relevant even though it is dated. Irene Dunne is wonderful as the Mama.

Summary: beloved family story
Comment: I Remember Mama is a wonderful story that I never get tired of seeing again and again. Irene Dunne is at the top of her game in this movie.

Summary: Wonderful escapism with lots of realism
Comment: I finally got around to watching this movie after knowing about it for some time and coming close to watching it once. I found it thoroughly delightful with just the right amount of sentimentality, not overly mushy. Being a book lover and especially of English literature, I particularly enjoyed the references to some of my favorite books. While the film obviously centers around the mother (played wonderfully by Irene Dunn in a role like no other I've ever seen her in) I think tribute should also be made to the somewhat silent yet strong role the father played. I particularly liked the way he offered coffee to the daughter when she so obviously had "grown up" (as well as the look on his face when the mother doused with cream) and the "smoking" lesson he taught his son. But the whole movie was wonderful stuff. Definitely recommend viewing at least once and you will probably want to again, like me.
