directed by Peter Godfrey
USA 1947
| Tom Bates (Ronald Reagan) has returned to Jordan, Ohio, after 18 years, rekindling the gossip that he fathered an illegitimate baby before he left. Mary Hagen (Shirley Temple), the now-grown subject of those rumors, soon finds herself an unwitting target for the town’s malicious whispers and lies. So when her mother dies without explaining her past, a tormented Mary turns to Tom for the truth about a scandal that ruined her life before it ever began. Said to be Temple’s favorite adult movie, That Hagen Girl also features 20-year-old Lois Maxwell as the former child star’s on-screen teacher and friend. |

| Comments |
That Hagen Girl received a notoriety in late 1970's to be included in the book "The Fifty Worst Films of All Time". The film, starring future president Ronald Reagan and 19-year-old Shirley Temple, is not all that bad, just a pedestrian melodrama that has some interesting and some over-the-top plot twists and turns. Rory Calhoun co-stars and Lois Maxwell got a "Most Promising Newcomer" Golden Globe for her performance. The Warner Brothers production was released as part of made-on-demand Warner Archive service. The progressive transfer is fine with very little damage on the print and good contrast. The mono soundtrack is fine with no distortions. There is a theatrical trailer included as a bonus. This is a nice release, but those who enjoy bad movies be warned, this one is not all that terrible. |
