Review by Featherwood Kid, Gordon for Dangerous Holiday Rating:
The star of this movie is Ronald Sinclair (Ra Hould), a very attractive boy, often compared to the more famous Freddie Bartholomew and who later starred in his most popular movie, Thoroughbreds Don’t Cry (1937), which also starred Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. Interestingly, both boys, born in 1924, were popular during the 1930′s, when pretty and sophisticated (some would say sissy) boys were the rage in movies, and both died in 1992. I give the movie only three stars because the story line is so light it almost floats, and the quality of the movie, though clear enough, needs some digital remastering. However, it is a trip back to a seemingly more innocent time, and Amazon offers it at a quite reasonable price.
