On Borrowed Time (1939)

Young Pud is orphaned and left in the care of his aged grandparents. The boy and his grandfather are inseparable. Gramps is concerned for Pud's future and wary of a scheming relative who seeks custody of the child. One day Mr. Brink, an agent of Death, arrives to take Gramps "to the land where the woodbine twineth." Through a bit of trickery, Gramps confines Mr. Brink, and thus Death, to the branches of a large apple tree, giving Gramps extra time to resolve issues about Pud's future.

Saw this movie first as a kid, and have since seen it probably 20 times (overjoyed when I found it on DVD)...Lionel Barrymore at the top of his game. The interaction between him and "Pud" (his grandson) are memorable...Don't know why this movie has stayed with me so long, but all the characters are well developed and though I know very well how it ends, it always seems fresh...A treasure!

Wonderful old classic starring Lionel Barrymore about an old man who has tricked death by the name of Mr. Brink...as in "brink of time" (played by Cedrick Hardwicke) up his beloved apple tree and kept him there,so that he can remain on earth to raise his orphaned grandson. Fine performances and a memorable sentimental story with a timeless message. Enjoyed this very much.

One of my favorites. A tender relationship between Gramps and Pud.

Love the story. A little eerie, but still.. I like the beginning, the middle, and the ending.

Interesting movie that has been largely ignored or forgotten.
