Andy Hardy

Andy Hardy the 1930's teenager. All of the Andy Hardy's remind me of all of the teen films today except that Andy Hardy (Mickey Rooney) is sweet, innocent, mischievous and cute as a button. He has the perfect stereotypical American family. His life consists of mischievous adventure, a love of girls, an on again, off again relationship with Polly Benedict (Ann Rutherford) and a close relationship with his poor friend-zoned, friend Betsy (Judy Garland who only appears in three films but makes her mark there). Andy is a lovable character often getting into trouble and having to talk to his dad about his problems and then learning a valuable lesson before repeating this routine in the next film. Mickey is just hilarious in a few of the more comic films done though it shows some of his best acting and best melodramatic acting over all I just love Andy Hardy I'm completely fixed.
