Ooooweee!!! A Stinker!!!


Actually Johnny Tillotson just finished a song, and the beach group The Wild One's did a number and it's not quite as bad as I thought. One a scale of 1-10 I give it a -5. .... NO! Make that -10!!! Well, it could be -20 Hee Hee. They're doing gangster impression voice overs at 1:06. Whew! Can't listen to the movie, can't look at it!!! What do I do?!? How did I get here?? Last night I watched Gilda with Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford then Rain (1932) with Joan Crawford and Walter Huston. (What. a Flick!) Oh I know, I saw Jane Mansfield's name. What a Dame! She's six months pregnant, all bundled up. Darn! I think Jane Mansfield's Hot!! Whooo hope this movie doesn't damage my mind!! I got :13 minutes to go. Will I make it?? What's next?!? John

Hilarious! I went through about the same emotional turbulence watching this last night! What is with that? Didn't realize this was a musical, nearly turned it off there and then on the first song. But realized that singer was actually really good. (Thanks for the name, btw) Dealt with it, lots of Fast Fwd. How did I get here? I saw Phyllis Diller on the ticket with Jane Mansfield (huh?), and I have never seen a JM movie before, though I well know the name. Good enough! I also enjoyed the other review on this, very knowledgeable viewer. Love the IMDB note that this movie is included in the '50 worst films ever made' video. Wadaya want, with Phyllis and Jane? Its a treasure. And also, I have to blame TIVO for finding this for me, to begin with. Especially the 'flying the plane' parts, reminded me a bit of the very very spectacularly awful Skyscraper, with Anna Nicole. So, John, that could be next, if you can bear it. : )

Uh .... I've had enough pain at this time, thank you very much!! I'm about 1/2 way thru "Along the Great Divide" 1st Kirk Douglas Western. Walter Brennan, Virginia Mayo (wow!!) Ray Teal (great actor!!) What a cast.

By the way, I finished "Spy.." Movie. Man oh man, it was an experience! Don't think I'll watch it again. ..... Ever. John
