Banjo (1947 film)

Banjo is a 1947 American drama film directed by Richard Fleischer and starring Sharyn Moffett, Jacqueline White and Walter Reed.

After her father dies, Patricia Warren, a girl of nine, must go from her home in Georgia to live with her wealthy but vain and egotistical aunt Elizabeth Ames in Boston.

Since Pat does not want to leave her dog alone, she travels by Banjo's side in the baggage car, where she meets and befriends Bill, who works for the railroad.

When her aunt Elizabeth receives news of Pat's arrival, she has recently broken her engagement to Dr. Bob Hartley, and is on her way to Bermuda.

Elizabeth is not happy about Banjo accompanying the young girl, and forces the dog to stay outside of the house, despite Pat's protests.
