The Monolith Monsters (1957)
Chrysler-Mania.
Was this movie funded by Chrysler? The main characters drive a DeSoto Convertible and a Dodge Station Wagon, the Police drive a Plymouth and a large Dodge Truck is used as well, all of which were brand new at the time. The only other Big Three cars are either barely used or not at all and an beat-up old Ford Station Wagon is shown overheating.
From Hell It Came (1957)
Theme Song
"From Hell It Came" has a beautiful theme song: "Did you ever see a tree walking, well I just did.."
Cats (2019)
Kitty Litter
Kitty Litter. I don't mean the quality Name-Brand Kitty Litter that does a good job of absorbing odors. I mean the cheap, off-brand Kitty Litter. The kind that you buy to save a dollar or two then regret because it allows the smell to permeate your house.
A Stolen Life (1946)
First Rule of Movie Watching...
The First Rule of Movie Watching.... Never never never pass up a chance to see Bette Davis playing twins - one good and one evil. "A Stolen Life" is enjoyable sudsy fun for all.
The Plot Against America (2020)
What Happened? I Can't See What's Going On
Compelling story, beautifully produced and very well acted. But I can't see any of it! EVERY scene, day or night, indoors or outdoors, is so under-lighted that I have trouble figuring out what is going on. Some night scenes are nothing but ten minutes of total darkness with mumbling dialogue. Is this supposed to be "realistic"? There were probably light-bulbs, and the sun did occasionally shine, in the 1940s.
I think this under-lighting shows the influence of "Game of Thrones", often criticized for being too dark - not dark in plots and characters, but so darn dark you couldn't see anything.
If HBO can't afford light-bulbs I have a few extra in my basement that HBO can have. Otherwise, I am getting tired of spending $15.00 a month to look at a dark screen.
His College Chums (1929)
Here is Eddie Peabody at his Greatest
Eddie Peabody - He was short, odd-looking, and had a speech defect; yet during the Jazz Age he was a ROCK STAR!! Absolutely worshiped. Here you can see why. His command of these instruments is phenomenal (especially that "Blue Skies" bit). Watch this to see GREATNESS!
