Noah Beery Jr. is Wallace Beery's nephew correct? Wallace was a great actor!

Yep. All highly talented. I especially liked Wallace Beery in "The Mighty McGurk" ~ great role, great movie.

Glass Onion ~ 2022


Image


my rating = somewhere between 7 to 8 or so
decent enough entertainment - it attempts to have some redeeming social value but falls mebbe a bit shorter than it should
evidently, it's part of a Knives Out series
good stuff but could be better

very stagey like - evidently, Murgatroyd made a comeback in this flick which was a parody of old Prohibitionist writings of the 1890s

Hello. I really liked Atlas's piece on the war against artificial intelligence. The movie is not bad, especially the main character played by Jennifer Lopez.

This Week:

THE BEEKEEPER - Really enjoyed this, easy watch....



DARK WATERS - Dupont Teflon, the coverup, testing on people, and aftermath and a lawyer fighting against bid business all based on a farmer fighting for what is right.

Rated 6.9 on IMDb - Jan & Dean Bio Movie from 1978 a CBS Made For TV Movie -- tragic story but it does end on a positive note as Jan made a miraculous comeback after his terrible accident. They remain one of the most influential Rock groups of all time.

Brawl in Cell 99: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5657856/

Nor bad, not great....entertaining, violence, humor. Vaugh plays the role well.

Watched the premier of this great little ditty over 63 years ago & hadn't seen it since. Quite memorable - gives us all hope. Reminds me of Albert Lamorisse's other great classic White Mane.

We alumni of Jefferson High School in God's Country are very proud of her enormous accomplishments. Image

Generally acknowledged as one of the greatest silents of all time and definitely Buster Keaton's #1 movie of all time. While it remains popular after nearly a century, it never generated a profit as the production costs were enormous. Very dangerous stunts were performed during its filming.

Rates a 9 Star.
