This is a sweet, homey little tale of a mother's love for her son and her desire to see him become a success, rising above his poor upbringing. She wants him to become a gentleman, so one day she brings home a kindly, though mildly alcoholic, ex-gentleman called Captain Randolph Courtney. And what better gentleman to mentor him than the great Basil Rathbone, whose mannered performance is a nice change from the usual despicable film villains he was known for. Though a bit cliched, it's an enjoyable little 'ditty', if you will.
Would I recommend? Yes, to those who don't mind something a bit quaint and pleasantly old-fashioned.
