    Pappa Bell

    This biopic about the invention of the telephone proved to be a surprise. Not having seen it, we took the chance and it proved to be a real charmer. Under the direction of Irving Cummings, we get to know a great deal, not only about the invention itself, but a little bit about the man.

    Alexander Graham Bell was an ambitious man who was interested in helping a young deaf-mute boy, as the picture opens. We see him toiling at a prototype for the telegraph, and stumbling into the transmission of sound through wires, thus creating something that revolutionized society, business and the world at large. In retrospect, one can only imagine how could anyone survived without it! Thanks to Mr. Bell, his invention is something that benefited all of us.

    Don Ameche makes an intense Alexander Graham Bell. He was a charming actor who never ceased to amaze us in all the movies he left behind. Loretta Young, makes a wonderful Mabel Hubbard, Mr. Bell's beloved wife who had to struggle with her own deafness. A young Henry Fonda is seen as Bell's loyal friend Thomas Watson.

    The cast assembled for the film shows the best Hollywood could offer. Charles Coburn and Spring Byinton play the kind Hubbards. Gene Lockhart is also quite good as Thomas Sanders. Two of Loretta Young sisters Polly Ann and Georgiana play two of the Hubbard girls, as well as Sally Blane who is the fourth daughter.

    This is a film that is instructive as well as fun to watch because of the subject matter and the cast that made the story come alive.

    Good Film

    Story of Alexander Graham Bell, The (1939)

    *** (out of 4)

    Delightful tale of Alexander Graham Bell (Don Ameche) who while attempting to create the telephone falls in love with a mute girl (Loretta Young). The film really doesn't go into much detail about how the phone was created but instead it focuses on the pain that Bell went through while trying to break through. Ameche is downright brilliant in every shape of the word and his strong performance makes you forget several of the flaws throughout the film. Loretta Young is also very good as his wife and Henry Fonda adds nice support as the assistant. The film has some nice humor to go along with the drama and while I'm sure there are some facts made up, the film is still worth watching if you're a fan of the cast.

    " Mr. Watson! Come here! I need you! "

    Irving Cummings does an excellent job directing the cast of assembled actors in this film. The story itself is taken from the memories of the daughter of Alex Bell and follows through with all the trials and tribulations of Bell himself. Beginning with the decision he gave up teaching the deaf and dumb to speak and through the obscure and menial existence of an inventor, up through the difficult task fighting for his invention in court. Don Ameche plays Alexander Graham Bell, who does so with such spirit and vitality, audiences will later realize why this actor is so synonymous with the character. The same is true with Henry Fonda who plays Thomas Watson who also is easily identified with this movie. Loretta Young, Charles Coburn and Gene Lockhart are magnificent and help insure this black and white becomes a solid standard in any collection of what we now understand as Classic films. ****

    Under rated Don

    I always thought of him being an under rated actor. He certainly was versatile. He could sing, play comedy and drama, and if for no other reason, the academy finally realized his talents and gave him an oscar. It was long overdue. As for this film, he was very good and keep in mind Henry Fonda was playing a supporting role. As for Loretta Young..she was very lovely during those years, but her role had me squirming. As a deaf person, she spoke very well and the audience knows she's deaf because she makes it obvious as to her glaring at the actors mouths. I don't recall anyone mentioning if she was born deaf, or acquired it in later life.All in all, a satisfying film..thanks to Don's performance.

    Alexander Graham Bell was born March 3rd, 1847

    Movies about history are very important. They also need to be entertaining and believable. All three of those qualities need to be involved in a film such as this. Don Ameche brings to the silver screen an early representation of the life of Alexander Graham Bell and his contribution to the world. The invention of the telegraph and the telephone are explored in this Irving Cummings film.

    I bet you didn't know that AGB got his inspiration for the telephone from his years of teaching the deaf talk and communicate. That brings us to the love interest portion of the film, when we are introduced to the future Mrs. Mable Bell, who also is deaf, played by Loretta Young. It is a very interesting contrast between the film's intention and what the facts entail, because the first full decade of the talkies and sound happened in the 1930s, which makes that the quietest decade in film history, as it applies to full sound in film. It is interesting that there is no music in the movie, hardly at all, because this is a movie about trying to achieve the ability to hear and to transmit sound, so this is, kind of, an interesting juxtaposition of how this movie feels.

    It also is interesting seeing a film that was made only 65 years after Bell did his experiments, so you get a more uniquely believable script, then if it was one produced today, because 150 years have now gone by since Bell did his experiments. It also is apparent that the mind of an inventor can also be driven by his love of people or his compassion towards the world he/she lives in. None of that is more apparent when we see the love that is shared between Bell and his deaf students and his eventual love to Mable.

    Ameche is also contrasted with his less intelligent assistant Thomas Watson, played by Henry Fonda, who compensates for his lack of certain knowledge by being Bell's friend and cheerleader. This film teaches us that drive and desire doesn't always have to lead to power and money, but can sometimes lead to what it really should, love and accomplishment.

    8.1 (B MyGrade) = 8 IMDB.

      After the film was released, the telephone was commonly called the "Ameche," a slang term referring to actor Don Ameche who played the telephone's inventor. This association is explained in the film Colpo di fulmine (1941), showing the term was still in use two years after the release of the original film.
    • Blooper
      One of the stories in the movie, that is set in 1873, is that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone "in his youth". But the first telephone was invented by Antonio Meucci in 1860 and Johann Philipp Reis in 1861, who also called his device "telephone", not Bell as it's stated in the movie. Bell didn't invent THE telephone but A telephone, the Bell-telephone.
