The Original Punk?

I had not heard of it until a few minutes ago. Thankfully, there is a store which carries cult movies (Newbury Comics) within reasonable distance. I'll see if they carry it.

This was on TCM today. I love this movie. Partly because it was one of the movies my parents grew up with...Ma was a junior in high school.

They sure don't make movies like that anymore.

OH....YES! I mentioned on an earlier post, that I saw this on TV in the very late 50's, or early 60's. I didn't quite understand what the movie was about, but I was soooo intrigued by the title, since I was born in 1948 when it was made, and since green has always been my favorite color since I was about 4 years old...strange I know, to have a favorite color at such a young age...but that's another story.

Back then, we really used the TV Guide as if it were another kind of bible to see what shows were scheduled, etc.

Well when I saw the listing and time posted for TBWTGH,
I don't know why I thought I was going to be able to actually see green hair, seeing as though we had a B&W television set!

Now mind you....I didn't care about seeing anything else in the movie in color,

I just wanted to see THE GREEN HAIR!

Although I am a very youthful, 63 year old African-American grandmother who rocks a very fierce, braid hairstyle.....I am sometimes tempted to braid just a little green hair into my braids just to feed the "punk" in me! LOL!!



"OOO...I'M GON' TELL MAMA!"

Finally snagged the Warner Archive DVD (I'm so happy!).
