Little Man, What Now? (1934)

A couple expecting their first child struggles for survival in the Germany between wars.

Excellent film about the hardships of life, with hardly an unmemorable moment or performance. The type of realism displayed here should teach a lesson to young filmmakers who think that if you must film a house that's being painted, you must film the paint drying too.
This film is Dale Thomajan's third entry in his top ten of 1934.

Rating: 80
Number 6 among my favorites of 1934.
