Reely Old Movies

From IMDb: Stated by cinematographer Kazuo Miyagawa about director Yasujirô Ozu: "I'll never forget that, from the first day on, he knew the names of everybody on the set, fifty people in the crew, people he'd never worked with. He'd written their names down, I learned later. But everyone was impressed and became devoted to him. Every single day working on this film was extremely pleasurable and enriching. In each of Ozu's films you can sniff his personality. He was pure, gentle, light-hearted, a fine individual."

From IMDb: A color remake of director Yasujirô Ozu's 1934 silent film, A Story of Floating Weeds (1934).

The next episode is Floating Weeds (1959)

Tonight, come hear some news for old movie releases for the week, and watch me play Halo Reach: Team Slayer.

Kino Lorber is scheduled to release a version of this film on 4K later this year. No news on when. In the meantime it is available on YouTube and on DVD, pretty much anywhere it is in the public domain.

From IMDb: Much of this movie's financial failure is blamed on the fact that it was released on 5 December 1941, only two days before Pearl Harbor was bombed, although some reports show that while Pearl Harbor and the US being involved in WW2 certainly affected the film’s release, another potential reason is after seeing the failure of two Disney movies due to the European market being closed, the film was pulled early from screenings. Whatever the true story is, the film flopped so badly, the Flesichers were ousted from their own company by Paramount, and it was changed to Famous Studios.

The title has been changed several times over the years, Hoppity Goes To Town is a common one in England and other English speaking countries outside the us, and Bugville is another one.

Clipped version of “The Golem (1920) ” review will be released TOMORROW night at 7pm pst on YouTube and Rumble, and Apple Podcast, Spotify.

I watched The Golem (1920) on YouTube. The clipped review will be available on Apple Podcast, Spotify, and on YouTube and Rumble Monday 6/17/24.

On April 14th, 2020 Kino Lorber released a version of this film on Blu-ray

Join me tonight at 7pm PDT to watch my review of The Golem (1920) LIVE on YouTube and Twitter/X. Also hear some news for old movie releases for the week, and watch me play Halo Reach: Firefight.

From IMDb: Paul Wegener had the idea of making a film about the Golem after hearing the original legend being told in Prague, where he spent some time filming The Student of Prague (1913). Unhappy with his 1915 attempt at telling the story, he decided to make another film.

From IMDb: This was the third of a trilogy that Paul Wegener made featuring the Golem, the other two being The Golem (1914) and the short comedy The Golem and the Dancing Girl (1917). This movie works as a prequel to the first film and is the only one that has not been lost.

The next episode is The Golem (1920)

Every Thursday or Froday at 7pm pst, join me live where I'll be doing old movie news, the current weeks movie review (which will be clipped into a video for Mondays on YouTube and rumble), and a few rounds of Halo, whether that's firefight, infection, or slayer. The full livestream will be released on YouTube, Twitter, and spotify, apple podcasts, etc.

Once a month will be the next level in the campaign. Last week was the first level, the next one will be in July. This will take the place of the slayer, firefight, etc.

For episodes with guests, they can join me on halo as well, otherwise it will just be a prerecorded episode of just the movie review like it has been.

I am really excited for this endeavor, especially the fact that I'll be playing halo more.

If you missed us live, check out my review of “To Kill A Mockingbird (1962)” on YouTube, Rumble, Spotify, and Apple Podcast.

On October 11, 2022 Universal released a version of this film on 4K.

I watched To Kill A Mockingbird (1962) on Tubi. This review will be live on YouTube tonight at 7pm PDT, and will be released Saturday on Apple Podcast, Spotify at 8pm, and Monday at 7pm on Rumble.

After being offered the role of Atticus Finch, Gregory Peck quickly read Harper Lee's novel in one sitting and called director Robert Mulligan immediately afterwards to say that he would gladly play it.

On this day 80 years ago, June 6, 1944, Allied Troops invaded the beaches of Normandy and helped free France and eventually the rest of Europe from N**i Occupation. Those brave men had enough courage to face almost certain death from German Artillery, but they made it through and lead to victory!

From IMDb: Mary Badham (Scout) and Gregory Peck (Atticus) became close during filming, and kept in contact for the rest of his life. Peck always called her "Scout", her character role, while Badham called Peck "Atticus".

Gregory Peck's summation speech, which runs for 6 minutes and 30 seconds, was nailed in a single take.

The next episode is To Kill A Mockingbird (1962)

Video version of “Little Annie Rooney (1925)” will be released TOMORROW night at 7pm pst on YouTube and Rumble.
