Temple's movies are today marketed as children's films, but, like the classic Warner Bros. cartoons, they were made for adults. Her plucky, indomitable spirit helped America get through the Depression. She's perky and precocious to beat the band, but she suffers so on the way to the inevitable happy ending. When she gushes, "It's the best day I've ever had in my whole life," you know tragedy is imminent.
In Bright Eyes she is also at the mercy of bratty Smythe (scene-stealing Jane Withers), a pint-sized tantrum-throwing terror who makes Linda Blair in The Exorcist look like a Teletubbie. A further parental advisory in these politically correct times: Joy's eagerly awaited comeuppance is a real slap in the face. --Donald Liebenson

Customer Reviews of Shirley Temple: Bright Eyes
Shirley Temple in her first big starring vehicle BRIGHT EYES was Shirley Temple's first big movie, tailored especially for her, in which she plays the darling of a group of aviators. Shirley Blake (Temple) is a little tomboy who loves to hang around the airport with her pilot godfather `Loop' (James Dunn). Her widowed mother Mary (Lois Wilson) works as a maid to the snooty Smythe family, where Shirley must contend with bratty Joy (Jane Withers). When an horrific accident leaves Shirley orphaned, `Loop' sets out to adopt her but soon discovers he is only one of many who want to take home the adorable moppet. <

>Shirley shines in her first big role. After proving her mettle in "Baby Take a Bow" and many short subjects for the "Baby Burlesques" series, she was more than ready to tackle her first emotionally challenging part. Jane Withers is hilarious as the antithesis to Shirley's sweetness ("There ain't no Santy Claus, `cause my psychoanalyst told me"). <
> <
>This film also introduced Temple's signature tune "On the Good Ship Lollipop". The DVD includes the computer-coloured version of the film.
The Good Ship Shirley!
This is simply the best Shirley Temple film ever! This film includes Shirley's best known song "On the Good Ship Lollipop". I love everything about this film, especially any of the scene with Shirley and Jane Withers. Jane Withers does a fantastic job as the spoiled rotten Joyce. Of course, James Dunn is in the film, this time as a friend of Shirley's father who passed away. The film centers around Shirley and her mother who works as a maid in a rich household. Shirley's mom is still friends with the pilots that knew her husband and the rich family does not like the pilots to visit. Tragedy happens. To say much more would ruin the film. The film is rated PG because of the tragedy.

>It is a must see if you are a Temple fan. It has adorable Shirley at her best, a funny antagonist ( Jane Withers), and singing. This is a must buy if you are wanting to start a Shirley Temple Collection.
