Our Little Girl

Our Little Girl is a 1935 drama, in which Shirley Temple and Joel McCrea play the leading roles. The film was the final work of the veteran director, John S. Robertson.

The doctor Don Middleton Joel McCrea is so immersed in his work that he neglects his wife, Elsa Rosemary Ames, who begins spending more time with her husbands best friend. The two develop an intimate attraction. Don and Elsa decide to divorce, ignorant of the effect their on their daughter Molly Shirley Temple. When Elsa decides to remarry, Molly runs away from home.The original name of this movie was supposed to be Heavens Gate, but was changed prior to its release out of fear people would confuse the title with the name of a cemetery. Temple, in her memoirs, wrote that she had a huge crush on McCrea but quickly avoided further flirtation after two notable delays caused by her. While playing a grassy field, two of her false teeth fell out and were not located, resulting in production being called off for the day. In another incident, there was a long delay from the setting up of the cameras. Unable to hold it in any further, she wet herself. Thoroughly embarrassed, it took much coaching from her mother in the dressing room to convince her to go back out, resulting in further delays. ........
