Today we revisit Bert I. Gordon‘s The Boy and the Pirates (1960). The boy, Jimmy (Charles Herbert), meets the pirates, including Morgan, Blackbeard (Murvyn Vye) and Snipe (Paul Guilfoyle). They appear to be skeptical of Jimmy’s claim that there is a genie (Joe Turkel) in that bottle. Vy read more

Our final entry for Memorabilia Week is a British lobby card/still for Bert I. Gordon‘s The Boy and the Pirates (1960).

It’s my birthday! That means I get to be totally self-indulgent and post one of my absolute favorite pics of Timothy for no other reason than I think it’s smoking hot. So here he is as Morgan the ill-tempered pirate in Bert I. Gordon‘s The Boy and the Pirates (1960). I posted this read more

I was very saddened to learn of the death on Sunday of Susan Gordon. She was the daughter of director Bert I. Gordon and co-starred in several of his films, including The Boy and the Pirates (1960). Here she is from that film, doing her best to stay clear of Tim’s destructive pirate rampage. read more

Manuela (Judy Garland) only has eyes for one man: Macoco, the infamous pirate. She absolutely loves everything about the myth of Macoco, but the only problem is that she’s never met him. People aren’t even sure if he’s even still alive! Even when her aunt arranges for her to read more

Critica Retro Posted by Lê on Nov 30, -0001
O Pirata / The Pirate (1948) Quando você tem dois artistas cujas obras incluem “O Mágico de Oz” (1939) e “Cantando na Chuva” (1952), é fácil esquecer os outros filmes deles. “O Pirata” em geral passa despercebido quando discutimos as filmografias de Judy read more

favorite musical, or even their favorite MGM musical, but this unusual and
boldly vibrant film is worthy of its own pedestal. I recently re-watched the
Vincente Minnelli-directed production on a new Blu-ray release from Warner
Archive and I f read more
