I have watched it at least 10 times. Spencer Tracy was one of the best actors ever. Also, I love Pee Wee. I am surprised there is not more comments posted here.

I absolutely agree - Spencer Tracy was a fine actor and it is hard to believe that he has been dead over 40 years. I have BOYS' TOWN on videotape and find it a wonderful movie to be enjoyed by anyone

Well, some people might find it a tad too sentimental, and some lines could be offensive to atheists, but yeah really hard not to love, and I didn't mind on both the earlier counts. Great stuff!

I couldn't help the impression that PeeWee really seemed like a male Shirley Temple.
