    • Trivia
      In the early 1970s director Henry King was interviewed for the American Film Institute's oral history project, and spoke of this film. "One More Spring was a very popular book. I read it on the train coming from New York and thought it would make a charming picture, but it didn't. People didn't want to see things that were so real, happening around them all the time. It was made as a comedy, but became too serious. It was really a tragedy." He also said: "It would have been great to do it after the Depression, but to do it during the middle didn't work out."
    • Goofs
      The egg Warner Baxter cooks at the beginning seems to take only about ninety seconds to hard-boil and Walter Woolf King peels it without noticing that is should still be hot.

      Elizabeth Cheney: I was born an orphan, I guess. I don't remember being anything else.

    A film about the other side of America during the Great Depression.
    It's rather strange, but if you watch films made during the Great Depression (the end of 1929 until WWII), you'd hardly know that there was massive unemployment, bread lines and homelessness. For every film that talked about the plight of the poor (such as "Wild Boys of the Road" or "The Grapes of Wrath"), there were hundreds featuring rich, well-fed and happy people.

    In the case of "One More Spring", you perhaps understand why Hollywood avoided showing the Depression....as folks stayed away from the film in droves. Director Henry King talked about this years later, as apparently folks went to the movies to avoid thinking about the bleakness of the era.

    The story is about three homeless folks who are out of work and have no place to live. The first two, Jaret and Morris (Warner Baxter and Walter Wolf King), meet and try sleeping in the park...but are told by police to keep moving. But they fortunately meet a working stiff who keeps his tools in a large shed in the park...and he invites them to live there in this shack. But things become a bit complicated when Jaret meets up with Elizabeth (Janet Gaynor) and she, too, is homeless and hungry...so he invites her to come live with him and Morris. What's next? See the film to find out for yourself...and find out about the most unusual fourth addition to this cozy 'family'.

    While I can understand folks during the Depression not wanting to see this, the film i not all hopelessness and despair and ends on some very positive notes. This, combined with a lovely script and nice acting (particularly by Baxter) make this a joy to watch....well worth seeing.
