Blondie Brings Up Baby
(1939)
Running time: 68 mins Country:
USA Language: English
Synopsis: A book salesman (Olin
Howlin as Olin Howland) sells Blondie Bumstead (Penny Singleton) a set of books
on child training because he has convinced her that Baby Dumplin (Larry Simms)
is a child prodigy. Meanwhile, J.C. Dithers (Jonathan Hale), boss of Blondie's
husband, Dagwood Bumstead (Arthur Lake), rips Dagwood for altering the plans on
an apartment building the construction firm is building for Abner Cartwright
(Robert Middlemass) and, to keep his job, Dagwood must get Cartwright to sign
off on the changes - the latter refuses in order to escape from an unfavorable
contract. Baby Dumpling, the genius, is registered at school and Daisy,
accompanying him, is picked up by the dog-catcher on the way back home and
taken to the pound. Daisy is adopted by Melinda Mason (Peggy Ann Garner), the
crippled daughter of one of the town's wealthiest men. Baby Dumpling looks
everywhere and can not find Daisy, and plays hooky from school the next day.
Immediately, Blondie and Dagwood suspect kidnapping, and Dagwood learns that
Melinda, also missing, was last seen playing with a little boy and a dog.
Dagwood promptly heads for the Mason estate, where he is even more promptly
arrested as a kidnap suspect.
