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

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.

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.

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.
