Penny Addams lives in a constant state of depression stemming from the trauma of her father's death when she was just a young girl.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Secret Heart has mixed reviews with a rating of 6.3/10. Good for a relaxed evening without high expectations.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1946. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: viewers looking to try something new without being too demanding.
