I can’t be sure, but I think Lifeboat was the first truly classic film I ever saw. It was on our local PBS station located somewhere in Buffalo. It was on a Friday Night at 11:00 PM. It was the middle of the seventies, and we just got cable, so all the ghost images were gone. All the TV guide read more

Blogs That Could Have Been
The Old Movie House Posted by Tom on Jul 9, 2013

It’s at this point in the film that the tempo pick up- finally. This film is really slow at times and in is dire need of a cinematic laxative.

As you can see it’s feeding time in the Merinoe household. Again it’s soup (either it’s the only thing the mother can make, or the budget for the film is so small anything else is simply out of the question). Ma Merinoe fusses at her sons apparent lack of attendance at the dinner t read more
