Movie Description Two underrated films showcasing the considerable talents of the young Elizabeth Taylor are collected here. The critically acclaimed family comedy LIFE WITH FATHER (1947), based on Howard Lindsay and Russell Crouse's Broadway play, provides a look at family life in New York City during the 1880's; William Powell (who received an Oscar nomination) costars with Irene Dunn and Edmund Gwenn. 1951's FATHER'S LITTLE DIVIDEND is the lesser-known sequel to the classic FATHER OF THE BRIDE, reuniting the entire cast for another charming turn. Although Stanley Banks (Spencer Tracy) is hoping for some peace and quiet now that his daughter (Taylor) has been married off, he soon learns he's in for more chaos as an expectant grandfather.
