Common card · No. 351463

Heidi is a 1937 American musical drama film directed by Allan Dwan and written by Julien Josephson and Walter Ferris, loosely based on Johanna Spyri's 1880 children's book of the same name. The film stars Shirley Temple as the titular orphan, who is taken from her grandfather to live as a companion to Klara, a spoiled, disabled girl. It was a success, and Temple enjoyed her third consecutive year as number one box office draw. This was first of two films pairing Shirley Temple with Marcia Mae Jones, Mary Nash and Arthur Treacher; the other was The Little Princess (1939).
