Dickie Moore stars as seven-year-old Thomas Hall, Jr. whose life is tragically torn apart when his mother walks out on his philandering father. The devastating effect of divorce on young children is dramatically brought home in this unforgettable Monogram tearjerker.
Young Dickie Moore made his film debut as an 18 month old baby in John Barrymore's Beloved Rogue (1927), and by the time he was 10 years old, the popular child star had appeared in over 50 films, including several "Our Gang" shorts. Moore appeared in many fine films including Blonde Venus (1932), Song Of Bernadette (1941) and most notably as the lead in Oliver Twist (1933). Toward the end of his career, Moore co-starred in the popular 1950s series, "Captain Video and the Video Rangers." He is also known to trivia fans for bestowing Shirley Temple's first screen kiss in 1942's Miss Annie Rooney when she was 14.
