A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is a 1945 American drama film that marked the debut of Elia Kazan as a dramatic film director. Adapted by Tess Slesinger and Frank Davis from the 1943 novel by Betty Smith, the film focuses on an impoverished but aspirational, second-generation Irish-American family living in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York, in the early 20th century. Peggy Ann Garner received the Academy Juvenile Award for her performance as Francie Nolan, the adolescent girl at the center of the coming-of-age story. Other stars are Dorothy McGuire, Joan Blondell, Lloyd Nolan, Ted Donaldson, and James Dunn, who received the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Francie’s father. ===========================

My mother gave me this book as a child. She and I read lots of books. We still do. Thank God for libraries to.
One of my fav books n this movie. When I started nursing school, the teacher asked who had read this book. I was the only one. He told me, you will be a nurse. I did. Our class was big, only 25 wound up graduating. I was the president of my class .
A great movie these old movies are the true test of time the movie that can bring out emotions without bloodshed and guns and bullets and drugs there are worse things in those I just mentioned she said fine heartwarming to me a Christmas classic my cup runneth over…

It recalls a time when children could be children.
