		The style, stodgy though it may be, overwhelms you with the houseness of the family house and the hominess of every stick of furniture--everywhere you turn, you're confronted with the idyllic nature of the whole enterprise.
		Belles on their Toes therefore deals with the highly un-patrician story of Frank's widow, Lillian (Myrna Loy), who despite being an engineer like her husband was barely alluded to in the first film.
		Also included is the film's trailer, plus trailers for Belles on their Toes and the Cheaper by the Dozen remake and a two-minute "Movietone News" segment showing the 1950 version being presented a family entertainment award by one Father Keller.

	dOc DVD Review: Belles on Their Toes (1952) - Printable
		Following up on the success of 1950's Cheaper by the Dozen, its sequel, Belles on Their Toes, picks up where the first left off, in the continuing story of the Gilbreth family.
		Their new situation means many adjustments to keep the family budget, since despite her husband's credentials and her equal part in his research, the early twentieth century has no place for a woman in the sciences, and she faces discrimination from the industries and engineering societies utilizing their life's work.
		Lighthearted with some semblance of drama, Belles on Their Toes is a heartwarming sequel that bests the original, which is not totally forgotten as the story pays tribute to Frank Sr.

		Their mad logic is both instructive and liberating.
		Cheaper By The Dozen and sequel Belles on Their Toes -- No doubt my enjoyment of this biography of the Gilbreth family is colored by being one of nine kids myself, with somewhat similar parents.
		Van Dine is their early exploration of that motif, with the conflict of official/evidence and intellectual/psychology cultures all the more clearly portrayed since they are nominally working together.

	Belles on Their Toes DVD Review
		"Belles on Their Toes" picks up where the Gilbreth family left off in "Cheaper by the Dozen." While many sequels leave much to be desired this sequel is even better than the predecessor.
		In BOTT, the viewer doesn't get nearly as much a sense of period authenticity and details as in the original; it looks more like something from the Fifties instead of a story taking place in the Twenties.
		Missing all of these important events that really set the mood for how much this family cared for one another and what a great job they did getting by on their own, one doesn't really feel quite as connected to the characters and the plot as in the original.

	Belles on their toes / Oakland nail salons add glossy sheen to Saturday nights out
		Mary Jo is spiffing up her toes for church the next morning, and smoothing her heels in case something divine happens before then.
		Whether soaking their dogs side by side in $3,500 vibrating massage-whirlpool chairs at the Nail Shop or chatting cozily at Le Visage with Ky Lieu, who's been doing this nearly 40 years, they are all united in their craving for what a little foot-lovin' can do.
		Behind the receptionist's table at Queen of Nails, 100 regulars each have their own buffer, foam toe separator and file in a cardboard box with their name scrawled on it in shaky pen-writing.

	DVD Savant Review: Belles on Their Toes
		Belles on their Toes continues this thread but gets a little more homogenized along the way.
		This is how Americans used to like their family comedies, and the "single parent copes with a ton o' kids" format has proved successful in everything from Please Don't Eat the Daisies to The Sound of Music to Yours, Mine and Ours.
		Belles on their Toes probably wouldn't have made a good 50s TV sitcom because of the stiff payroll and child labor laws - the biggest TV families had at most three kids.

		Belles on Their Toes (20th Century-Fox), a sequel to 1950's successful Cheaper by the Dozen* is, like most follow-ups, somewhat of a letdown.
		In Belles, Webb is seen only in a brief flashback from the earlier film.
		For its trigger-paced suspense, their little picture is worthy of being bracketed in the select group of train thrillers headed by Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes and Carol Reed's Night Train.

		This book follows the Gilbreth family's adventures from just after their dad has died until all the children are grown and married.
		Without him, Belles on Their Toes is funny, but feels lifeless because there is no Dad there to knock someone's elbow on the table.
		Belles on Their Toes talks about the struggles of a family trying to get back on their feet after such a terrible loss.

	Belles On Their Toes
		Or maybe this destitute family will get lucky and manage to sell their summer home on Nantucket, but since they can't find a buyer for it, they have no choice but to go and stay there for the summer.
		This leads to a generally pointless series of events that culminates in an embarrassing singing and softshoe routine on the docks at a nighttime barbecue that had me flashing back to the first movie when the kids were are practicing their musical instruments and it was determined that they had no musical ability.
		It's a close call, but Belles On Their Toes is slightly worse than Cheaper By The Dozen.

		Faster mentioned Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, widely credited with having created the science of ergonomics; the pair is better known, however, as the parents of the twelve children in Cheaper by the Dozen and Belles on their Toes, which this offhand mention prompted me to reread.
		I expected to come away from them vaguely disturbed by the assembly-line regimentation of their home life (Gilbreth père having insisted on efficiency in the home as well as in the factory) but this turned out not to be the case.
		But he eventually realized that the starvation, the tortures, the mortification of the flesh, did absolutely nothing to propel him towards enlightenment — enlightenment requires a brain in peak working condition, and weakening it with deliberately inflicted suffering is just as counterproductive as distracting it with sensual pleasures.

		Their background vocals sound as if- and I could be wrong- they’re being done live as they’re playing, not multi-tracked in afterwards.
		Their website is similarly elusive, it took me several tries to find a computer that would work with the flash software but I still learned very little once I did.
		Their playful melodies are artistic, graceful, and add to a general feeling light hearted humor we all need.

		I now know why they re did this one it is deffinately not as funny as the new one but it was ok some funny bits.
		It shows the changing times in the early 1900s--shorter skirts, shorter hair, "modern" thinking--against the "old set" ways, and the strength of family members supporting each other.
		Bells on Their Toes clearly follows another path and highlights much of the 1950 tendancy to make every teen movie about some song and beach party.

	Classic Coming Attractions by Barrie Maxwell
		Legend Films freely admits that they made up the whole colour palette for the film as they went along, with no effort at authenticity, just a desire to throw in whatever colour caught their fancy or somehow reflected how they felt about a particular character or segment of the film.
		Both films were originally made in Technicolor, but unfortunately Fox has not seen fit to do the type of restoration needed to make the films look their best.
		The source material is in decent shape, but the Technicolor vibrancy is missing and the image is frequently soft-looking.

		I can't believe I didn't know this book existed till very recently; I would have bought and read it a whole lot sooner had I known, having read the first book about five or six times.
		And the funny moments aren't as frequent as in the first book, since the children are older.
		It also seems like the younger children got the short end of the stick--less time was given to writing about their own humourous childhood anecdotes and stories, since time passes really quickly after Anne gets married.

		This was due to the increase in movies and radio shows, which were based upon the Wild West as well as rodeos becoming a popular form of entertainment in the 1950s.
		Now, girls everywhere are wearing cowboy boots as a fun, flirty, and feminine way to dress up their outfit.

		I purchased this set of DVD's for my granddaughters, who had listened to an audio book of the novel Cheaper by the Dozen and had enjoyed it.

		The newer version with Steve Martin is silly, and has nothing to do with the real family.

	Four From Fox - DVD Classics Corner
		So successful was CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN that Fox lost no time in planning a sequel, BELLES ON THEIR TOES, which was released two years later, in 1952, and is, unfortunately, a shapeless and formless shadow of its predecessor.
		For reasons I won't divulge, Clifton Webb isn't in it, which is the single biggest problem, as he was the heart and soul centerpiece of CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN.
		The transfer of THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN IN THEIR FLYING MACHINES, on the other hand, is so stunning that the fact that this variation of the earlier (and much worse) IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD isn't really all that funny is beside the point.
