Rather sweet melodrama with Bette Davis before she was "Bette Davis".

Radio comes to the cinema. Phillips Lord takes his popular radio character for a spin-off on screen. Way Back Home is a slow moving picture that's directed more at the soon-to-die audience that was the demographic for Lord's radio show. The type of folksy good mannered country shtick that Will Rogers did much better. Has warmth, but sadly a bit on the dull side with way too few smiles coming my way for it to become a winning formula.
