Appealing basic story: Older brother Farina wants to hang onto his little brother, Stymie-Boy; however, much time feels wasted. While the attempted telling of Noah and the Ark backs the storyline by demonstrating the bond between brothers (and showing the boys amid homemade labor-saving devices), other comic bits do not connect. That would be Chubby at the bathroom sink singing in a deep, adult voice, and the rest of the Our Gang kids playing miniature golf in Jackie's "Missing Links Preemature Golf Links" miniature golf course. It seems odd as well that no one in the black community comes forward to help the two boys, showing a minority community that isn't tight. It's up to a white woman to save the day - offering to look for someone (not offering) to take care of the two black boys - which is fine with official authorities. Really? No paperwork to fill out? Governmental departments work this way? (And can it be added that June Marlowe as Miss Crabtree sounds like she only had a minute to look at her lines before going on camera?)
