Carefree (1938)
10/10
Too funny
11 September 2015
A very funny movie.

This is one of my favorite films of those crazy dancing partners.

I won't say anything about the plot; you can read it in the summary.

I just want to say that it is probably the funniest movie they ever made together.

The cast of leading characters/actors were some of the funniest in the business.

The whole "lobsters and mayonnaise" scene is just hilarious.

If you've never seen this film, enjoy it and you will be glad you did.

The Yam is a cute little number too.

Casting

Firstly I must say,

Jennifer Shull should be commended on the cast.

Secondly, this wonderful cast put on a great show.

John Vogel wrote a wonderfully, silly, funny, story.

Neil Simon knows how to put a film together with his wonderful, can't stop watching scripts.

I hope more people get to enjoy this movie.

It is truly treasurable.

If there is ever a movie to have in your collection, this is it, along with "Murder by Death."

Fun and Inquisitive Series for the Entire Family
3 February 2014
This was one of my favorite series. I love gadgets and it's fun to see where they came from and how they came about, especially the ones we pretty much take for granted each day. For example: the lowly vacuum cleaner. Certainly not glamorous, but what would our carpets and draperies look like without this device.

Although it hasn't been run in the US for decades, I think it's time for a re-run, as well as a production on DVD. Luckily, I was able to find about 10 of the episodes on youtube and I really enjoy watching them over and over with my family and friends.

Tim Hunkin and his associate, Rex are really fun, if not a little crazy the way they perform some of their demonstrations.

I Dream of Jeannie (1965–1970)
10/10
Roger finds out
5 August 2006
Warning: Spoilers
OK, Jeannie finally stops eluding Roger.

She waits until Tony says that Roger will be by.

However, Roger remembers meeting Jeannie at the Library.

And, he wants to find her. Jeannie, however, never gives her home address.

Roger is sad, until he finds out that Jeannie lives with Captain Nelson.

And CPT Nelson doesn't want anyone to know the situation.

Roger finds out and faints. Then, he steals Jeannie's bottle to take charge of her (an ancient custom).

What happens to CPT Nelson is the whole story. Watch it.

Very good original story
25 April 2006
One of my favorite movies - the acting is fine and the plot quite interesting.

I've been a fan since I first saw it when I was about 7 or 8 years old WAY back in the late 60's.

Wish it was on DVD.

I have a poor copy on VHS.

Too bad they don't write unusual movies like this anymore. I would love to see "what happens" to the travelers when they go into the "very far future." This movie would probably do very well as a re-make today.

Enjoy this delightful sci-fi film.
