About Young at Heart
This 1954 musical remake of Four Daughters stars Doris Day as a well-bred New England woman who marries a chip-on-his-shoulder musician (Frank Sinatra). Lots of tears, yes, but this version of Fannie Hurst's novel is considerably cheered up from the 1938 tearjerker. Dorothy Malone and Elizabeth Fraser play Day's sisters (a fourth sister present in Four Daughters was written out), Robert Keith is the paterfamilias to a bunch of musical prodigies, and Gig Young is entertaining as the composer-boarder who tries deflecting the sisters' interest in him by bringing Sinatra home one day. Both Day and Sinatra really shine in this, and the songs include the Johnny Richards-Caroline Leigh title tune, which became part of Sinatra's standard repertoire. --Tom Keogh Amazon.com essential video

This movie is Wonderful, You can't beat Frank Sinatra and Doris Day
together. Frank sings wonderful songs, and the duet between him and
Doris (You, My Love) is marvelous.
So grab the popcorn and sit back and enjoy! March 18, 2008

I enjoyed this movie very much! Doris Day was tremendous and what a voice! I think the only thing I didn't really care for was Frank Sinatra's character, Barney Sloane, at the beginning of the movie.
Doris Day is Laurie Tuttle, daughter of a musician, living in Connecticut with her two other sisters. Alex Burke (Gig Young), the son of her dad's friend, comes to Connecticut to write the music for his new Broadway show and boards at their house. Over the summer they fall in love and become engaged. Then Alex has his friend Barney Sloane (Frank Sinatra) come to do the musical arranging for him. Laurie feels sorry for him and helps him out. He ends up falling in love with her too and when he explains that her sister, Amy, is in love with Alex. Laurie ends up eloping with Barney and moving to New York.
This movie has some great songs: "Young At Heart," "There's a Rising Moon," "Ready, Willing and Able," "It Was Just One Of Those Things" and Doris Day and Frank Sinatra's wonderful duet "My Love." March 11, 2008

This is the first movie I ever remember seeing in a theater as a kid. Being a fan of Frank Sinatra and Doris Day, I enjoyed the DVD every bit as much as the original movie. February 25, 2008
