Wee Willie Winkie (1937)
Wee Willie Winkie was Shirley Temple’s favorite role as a child star, and it’s no wonder. It’s the only movie she didn’t have to “sparkle”, as her mother would coach. No singing, no dancing, and she got to wear trousers and play rough and tumble with the boys. Unfortunately, for her fans, the singing, dancing, cute dresses, and “sparkle” are what we loved best about her movies.
If you want to see her in a different type of role, though, you’ll be very pleased with this one. Her other trademark is to soften the hearts of gruff curmudgeons. C. Aubrey Smith is Shirley’s grandfather in this movie, and a very strict military man. Shirley adores the British Army and quickly becomes the mascot of her grandfather’s unit, thanks to Sergeant Victor McLaughin. The more she witnesses of military life, the more she learns. Cesar Romero, an Indian rebel leader, is captured. Shirley wants to get involved in the peace negotiations, but C. Aubrey prefers she stays in her place. Do you think the wee girl’s smile and common sense will save the day? Watch this drama to find out.
