    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C Review: Taking a scene from the film is a risky move even if it does adequately explain the film’s plot without much effort.

    Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: It’s a fitting poster, though not terribly exciting. It doesn’t do that rather annoying live action on animated background concept, and although the background does seem a bit filtered, it’s not distracting. Trailer…

It might draw a few art majors, but it’s hardly worth noticing unless you know what the subject is. Trailer…

I can’t even see any appreciable symbolism, which doesn’t assist…

    I’m going to interrupt my chronological coverage of the film years that began with 1957 that has so far gone through 1962 to go back even further in time to talk about the film year 1940. While most film buffs and historians consider 1939 to be the best in Hollywood history, I think 1940 was…
