| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzJust a run-of-the-mill conventional Hollywood crowd-pleasing romantic comedy. |
| User ReviewAustin LThis is definitely my favorite silent film. In fact, this is the movie that made me fall in love with Pickford and her work. A truly marvelous final silent film for the actress, who sadly saw the end of her career when she tried "talkies." |
| User ReviewNisha MShe's Mary Pickford. to dislike her is Unamerican, as Unamerican as the HUAC. |
| User ReviewPrivate Uthis was my first silent film experience. it's so charming, I love it! |
| User ReviewTara RMary Pickford's last silent film. She and Buddy Rogers absolutly sizzled. No matter what era this was made in, it can still carry over into now. It's beautifully acted and wonderfully funny! Witness America's Sweetheart in her finest performance! |
| User ReviewStella PClassic story done really really well. Unbelievably romantic |
| User ReviewLauren QWhat a great silent film! Very, very entertaining! It was like a version of Cinderella only better. You see it! |
| User ReviewDebbie PMy Best Girl is from 1927 and was Mary Pickford's last silent movie. Mary starred opposite her third husband Buddy Rogers. It was cute, and had some very funny scenes. I loved it. |
| User ReviewAngela PReally great movie, the perfect one for Mary Pickford to do as her last silent film. Mary and Buddy were a really terrific pair. |
| User ReviewAj VAlthough the romance in the film is as predictable as ever, this movie has charm and humor, and great actors. I really enjoyed it and I recommend it. |
