Aunt Eller was pillar in this nice film


this lady , Aunt Eller-Charlotte Greenwood she is great character, she hold them all together,

i liked her clever words
(young chick nags) - Don't let your mind run of it. ... (young chick continues to sull) - You've got to get used to have all kinds of things happening to you. You got to look on all good on one side, all bad on other side... and well, "all right then"! the both of them! Lot's of things happen to a woman. Sickness, and being poor and being hungry, you've been left alone in the old age. Being in fear to die. And - you can stand it! (smiling to her) There is one way, you got to be hardy, you got to be! (clinging her fists). - I wish I was like you Eller. - Fiddle sticks! We're all in all. You couldn't harm me to be the way I am. (hugs her) - What I would do without you. You're such a crazy. - As soon as you're born (smiles and cries)
