ESCAPE TO PARADISE(1939)

Not terrible, basic story: a man running away
from fame for some peace and quiet! He gets
emboiled in the business happenings in a small
village, as well as a little personal business
with the local hottie! Bobby Breen(a child
actor/singer from the 30s and 40s) sings several
songs here! C+

From a reviewer at IMDb.com:

I wonder if Rick realises what he's made possible
here - and how many Archive users will hurry past
'ESCAPE TO PARADISE', unaware they're watching the
fading moments of a genuine phenomenon.One more
dumb movie ('JOHNNY DOUGHBOY')and that, by and
large, would be it for child star Bobby Breen.
In this fairly beat up copy - none of the Breen
films left extant are less than raddled - the
boy is on the brink of his first encounter with
a razor, he's moved from cherub to gangly teenager
and we can understand why he never made it past
puberty yet the all too brief version of 'Jurame'
remains high among the most meaningful love songs
ever recorded. 30 plus Eddie Cantor shows from
the mid 30's give a clearer view of what made
this kid so unique and while 'ESCAPE' will be
an unknown to the vast majority, it should be
treated as a repositary of a rare talent in
very much the same way as the junk featuring
Elvis Presley is. With any luck, Rick has some
of the others stashed away so prepare to ignore
the plot and regard the talent. If any name
from the 30's deserves to be back up in lights
on some reputable label, this is most likely
it. - carson1812
