I'm not sure why this movie gets a higher rating than the first one. Although I've read that they replaced Barbara Read as one of the "girls" because she was too grown up, Deanna Durbin seems older than her character as well, but pulls it off with her youthful charm. Unfortunately, the script requires her to be dishonest for no apparent reason, and the writers decided to pit the girls against each other, which totally messes with their chemistry. The father has become obsessed with work, undermining his originally sympathetic behavior in the first movie. Also, the ending is contrived and left partially unresolved. Meanwhile Binns, an integral part of the first film, is given little to do. I give this an extra star because Deanna is always a joy to watch. Otherwise, in the parlance of the times, I say phooey!

In 1939 Deanna Durbin was reunited with director Henry Koster and Charles Winninger, Nella Walker and Nan Grey in this sequel to "Three Smart Girls". Helen Parrish (who was the meanie in "Mad About Music" and the upcoming "First Love") took over the role of Kay from Barbara Read (who was very similar to Deanna in looks and personality). Robert Cummings and William Lundigan play the romantic interests. The film starts with a ball given for Penny - her father, forgetting all about it, comes in late and flustered. Penny sings "Invitation to the Dance" to an entranced audience. Joan (Nan Grey) and Richard (William Lundigan) announce their engagement but Kay (Helen Parrish) is not happy - she has a secret crush on Richard. Penny goes on a mission to find Kay a boyfriend and she finds Harry (Robert Cummings), a musician where she takes singing lessons. She sings the lilting "La Capinera" (the wren) in an amusing scene where she asks Harry to dinner. Another funny scene - when he comes to dinner he is obviously smitten with Joan but Penny does her best to throw him and Kay together. "The Last Rose of Summer" is sung by Penny to her father to convince him she still needs singing lessons!!! When Richard comes back on the scene, he takes them all to a night- club - the same one where Harry works. Harry is in love with Joan but is told Penny is madly in love with him!!! From the start Penny has been trying to get advice from her father, who is just too busy and harassed to listen to her (probably why her parents were separated in "Three Smart Girls"). The film ends with a wedding where Joan and Kay both get the man of their dreams and Penny gets to sing the beautiful song "Because". Bess Flowers "the extra with something extra" can be glimpsed as a woman in Winninger's office. Recommended.

Although it's meant to be a sequel to 'Three Smart Girls,' this film starts out with a clean slate, so to speak - we have the same family but there's no references to anything that happened in the earlier film, and to make way for the older sisters' romantic woes, their charming original love interests are completely out of the picture. The plot is entertaining, but seems just a trifle improbable in places - it may be only my personal opinion, but the sisters seemed to match better with the men Deanna originally tries to set them up with before the mix-ups begin! The scene during the wedding preparations bothered me a little bit too - why does no one have the nerve to call it off if they know they're not going to be happy? The brightest spot in the film is Robert Cummings, all of whose scenes just sparkle. He has great chemistry with Deanna, and some wonderfully hilarious scenes with the family butler. Charles Winninger as the father is also uniformly enjoyable throughout. Helen Parrish is a little bit subdued as the middle sister, but she has one very touching scene in which she tearfully advises her younger sister on not hiding her feelings for someone lest she lose him. It's a nice way to spend an hour or so and of course the musical numbers are great, but in my opinion the original 'Three Smart Girls' remains far superior.

This follow-up to the charming "Three Smart Girls" is almost as pleasant and enjoyable as the original. The story is similar to the first one in some respects, but with enough new ideas to keep it from becoming stale. Most of the cast is back, most importantly Deanna Durbin and Charles Winninger. Durbin's energy and charm make even the more implausible moments seem natural, and Winninger gets some even better moments as the befuddled but good-hearted father in "Three Smart Girls Grow Up" than he did in the first picture. Ernest Cossart also gets some good moments as Binns. Durbin's character again gets a chance to try to straighten out some romantic mis-matches, and to show her musical talents along the way. It's a simple combination that can be quite enjoyable when handled well. There are not a lot of new ideas here, but it has the same good-natured, unpretentious atmosphere and sympathetic characters as its predecessor. It delivers just what it promises, and it makes for a very nice way to pass an hour and a half.

What more is there to say about the child wonder that was Deanna Durbin. Famous as legend goes for saving the studio known as Universal, the girl is the epitome of naturalistic acting, fervent commitment and exceptional and beautiful singing. Three smart girls grow up is the follow up to the movie, you guessed it, Three smart girls. A movie I have not seen but I will definitely be picking up. The story is about unhappiness that three sisters go through as love enters asunder between the older two sisters. But one politely keeps quiet not wanting to offend the other. Little Deanna finds this out and goes ahead to fix things. Throw in a dithering, forgetful and slightly senile and the makings of a family movie is all in place. It should be noted that Hollywood does not know how to make movies like this any more. Witness the failed adventures of Hillary Duff in The Perfect man. But then again, Hillary is no Deanna. It seems as if there is no sin without Deanna in it, and the movie is all the better for it; the sass, the impudence, the lack of restraint, the forward thinking, the ambition, so charming. When Joe Pasternak moved to MGM, he tried to recreate the magic of the movies he made with Deanna there with the young starlet, Jane Powell. The movies, unofficial remakes of the Universal hits were big hits too but they lacked the spark of Deanna pictures. There is something to be said for star power. Back to the movie, everything is resolved in a charming and Hollywod formula that might seem half-baked if the movie had not earned it. And this movie earned it. It earned every moment of it.

With high unemployment, long bread lines, and home foreclosures rampant outside the theaters, Depression-era teens sought light escapist entertainment on date nights. A sequel to 1936's "Three Smart Girls," "Three Smart Girls Grow Up" is about as light and undemanding a piece of fluff that audiences could ask for. The wealthy Craig family includes three marriageable sisters, Penny, Joan, and Kay. The film begins with Joan's engagement to a handsome blonde young man named Richard. All seems bliss, but the meddlesome Penny inadvertently discovers that Kay has been secretly in love with Richard all along and is distraught by her sister's upcoming wedding. Thus, instigated by the family butler, Penny becomes matchmaker, determined to find a beau for Kay. Unfortunately, the man that Penny finds, Harry, immediately becomes smitten with the already engaged Joan. Got that? Ah, the pain and agony of young love. The rich high-society Craigs reside in a cavernous mansion with a mammoth foyer, a ballroom, and a sweeping grand staircase. However, despite the gargantuan abode, the three nearly mature young ladies must share a room, where secrets become common knowledge. A star vehicle for Universal's gold mine, Deanna Durbin, the film includes several opportunities for the young singer to musically shine. Dramatically, the young star plays the manipulative Penny with confidence, although viewers may want to give her a good smack and send her to her room without dinner well before the movie ends. The supporting cast is competent, but, with the exception of Charles Winniger as Penny's addled father, none are memorable. Penny's two pretty sisters do not register, and the two young suitors, played by William Lundigan and Robert Cummings, are handsome enough to be convincing heartthrobs, but their roles are undemanding. The thin storyline is predictable from the first scene and generally plays out amusingly. However, occasional annoying patches surface as Penny becomes tiresome by intruding into the lives of her sisters and their suitors. "Three Smart Girls Grow Up" is not on a par with the best Deanna Durbin vehicles, but worthy entertainment nevertheless for fans of her voice and upbeat demeanor.

Music director: Charles Previn. Music orchestrated by Frank Skinner. Singing coach for Miss Durbin: Andres de Segurola. Songs (all Durbin): "Because" by Guy D'Hardelot and Edward Teschemacher; "The Last Rose of Summer" by Thomas Moore and Richard Alfred Milliken. Copyright 30 March 1939 by Universal Pictures Co., Inc. New York opening at the Rivoli: 17 March 1939. U.S. release: 24 March 1939. Australian release: 27 April 1939. 90 minutes. COMMENT: An absolute delight, Three Smart Girls Grow Up comes across as an amusing, immaculately produced fairy tale. True, the characters (aside from Miss Durbin herself) bear little relationship to those presented in the original Three Smart Girls, but the movie is all the better for this dichotomy. It's nice to see Nan Grey taking a major part in the proceedings instead of sitting on the sidelines, Charles Winninger acting occasionally with a bit of restraint (the scene in which he finally listens to the disturbed Durbin is one of the film's many great moments), and Nella Walker infusing her matronly study with a few flares of temper. The rest of the players are likewise in excellent form, particularly Helen Parrish (a good lookalike for the replaced Barbara Read), Robert Cummings (at his most charmingly exuberant), William Lundigan (brilliantly outlining a handsome has-it-all with plenty of ingratiating surface charm but no depth), and of course Miss Durbin herself. Someone (perhaps producer Pasternak) also had the good sense to persuade Koster to direct the movie with a bit of style for a change, and never mind the expense. Koster is often quoted as declaring that he hated to waste his energies planning camera movements when he could be coaching the players instead, but here he really lets himself go with sweeping tracking shots that really show off the sets and keep interest bubbling by giving added point, drama and humor to many of the scenes. This is a movie that moves! Backed up by a high-class script, lavish production values and the expertise of skilled artisans like photographer Valentine, Miss Durbin has a vehicle worthy of her talents. She sings enchantingly too!
