Great Documentary on Arnold
Auteur on the Campus: Jack Arnold at Universal! (2013)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
This forty-eight minute documentary takes a look at the career of Jack Arnold at Universal where he directed a variety of films but most will remember him for his horror movies like CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON, THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN and MONSTER ON THE CAMPUS. This documentary features clips from his movies as well as interviews with historians like Tom Weaver, C. Courtney Joyner, Bill Warren, Bob Burns and Ted Newsom. If you're a fan of these Universal monster movies then this here is certainly a must see. Those being interviewed tell a lot of very good stories about the production of these monster movies but also the early portion of Arnold's career as well as the other genre movies that he made. I'd say most people don't even realize that Arnold did a string of movies outside the horror genre but they are covered nicely here as is his work with Orson Welles. The film thankfully runs long enough to get into full detail about all of these films so that makes this a must see.
