For those wanting to complete their collection
Here is another one of those terrible and zany anti-marijuana films made by the government in the 1930's. It's much like the other, unknown actors, inept storyline, goofy dancing, and of course 'reefer cigarettes'. This film is not over the top hilarious like 'Reefer Madness', nor it does not have nudity like 'Marihuana'. It does not even have a decent story like 'Cocaine Fiends'. If you collect ...

Amazing discovery...
Just finished the three movies in a row, and there are no regrets! This DVD is fun, and more: there are nice extras including an almost finished crazed strip act, trailers, picture gallery and all, and three flicks well presented. The picture/sound quality is not at all as bad as I suspected, in fact some "quality" classics can be found released in much inferior quality. And the movies... they ...

Sci Fi doesn't get any better
There are over a hundred reviews so I don't have much to add. Somewhere Stephen King wrote an essay on this movie. I only remember one thing he pointed out. Notice that there are essentially two groups: the military and the scientists. America was in love with its military (who had just won WWII) and wasn't too sure about its scientists (who had just invented The Bomb). That really shows in ...

Beautiful and touching
Excellent screen version of John Steinbeck's short novel, with effective and renowned Aaron Copeland score to match. It's more than just a story about a boy and his love for his pony that gets sick and dies; it's about life and fitting in, about who we are and how we choose to be accepted. Everyone does a fine job on the screen. Best perhaps is Louis Calhern as Grandpa, who once led a wagon train ...

Carrots, bugs, and tin cans
The Thing From Another World James Arness veggies out It is easy to just say this is a classic. What makes it the classic is the formula and people. (Directed by Howard Hawks). There is the standard 50'sw sci-fi prolog. You are set up as they go to investigate a crash in the snow. The investigators hold hands in the snow to figure out the size of the downed plane under the ice and find it has ...

Man's Favorite Sport
This is a classic example of the old saying "those that can't do - teach". Rock Hudson plays Roger Willoughby a writer portrayed to be an expert at fishing that has never been in his life. When he is entered in a fishing tournament as the resident expert, he is in a pickle. Paula Prentiss plays Abigail Page the unsuspecting one that got him into the tournament. As Roger learns to follow his ...
