MOVIE MONDAYS: The Man On The Eiffel Tower (1950)

This film had potential, but falls short due to its lack of focus with directorial changes and Ansco Color's overall "burnt sienna" murkiness. A creepy sociopath and egocentric intellectual thinks he can outwit the police in this complicated, suspenseful thriller. Just a few of the details found at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.

FILM FRIDAYS: 4D Man (1959)

An imaginative premise about two scientist-brothers penetrating the 4th dimension. Not always successful, the film eventually crosses over into the gullibility dimension. The misplaced music score and other amusing elements are captured at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.

MOVIE MONDAYS: Macao (1952)

This is not the slow-paced RKO follow-up to the superior His Kind of Woman (1951), but it sure looks familiar. I address the low-energy acting, yet why the big-name cast makes it work at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.

FILM FRIDAYS: The Creation Of The Humanoids (1962)

Perhaps the most talkative film of the 1960s. Its knee-deep script states that humans and humanoids share similarities. Budget-constrained wardrobe yet visually imaginative lighting and sets. More on this unknown film at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.

Despite the title, this movie is not a marvel. Yet the fine acting prevents a TKO. It's among a long list of prior boxing movies. Angry unsportsmanship is the challenger's only advantage in the ring. The boxing finale is one of the more realistic. I spell it all out at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.

One of the three sisters wants their father's inheritance all to herself and attempts to make it happen anyway she can. Add a snippy aunt and a handsome pilot to the mix, and you have something average. This strangled-budget soap opera from Bel-Air Productions is unintentionally funny at times and best described at FORGOTTEN CINEMA.
