FILM OF THE DAY
SCCBC,WK?
FOTD is essentially a blog/vlog (which may or may not be performed by a fictional character named Reginald R. Reginald). The film/s in question may sometimes deserve more justice than I could give them, feel free to offer your own potentially quite superior perspective/s on the film/s in the video's comments section: it is always very immensely appreciated!
Apologies in advance for any subpar or otherwise inadequate material! There could be some...

*7th Doctor:* sends the Daleks home crying *15th Doctor:* just cries
Evil of the Daleks is brilliant and I agree it is a great shame we only have episode 2. The animated version is quite alright but I would recommend Frazer Hines' novelisation and the audiobook of same.
1:47 in my mind he became a consul bc he was a patrol agent from Solaria, a region south of the castle, and randomly showed up already sat on the chair 😅
0:50 there were SEVERAL times where i wanted Katura or luvic as comps There are many characters i want as comps
Luvic isnt paniful to Watch or i wouldnt have done so much about him Or maybe he is and its a Susan Wainwright thing
I have nostalgia for Luvic being alive! 😮😊
In what other context could Ken Dodd get shot in the back?
Good intro. Then nothing after 23 seconds!
Most of the audio is missing.
Well said as always. Very fond of this film especially for its cinematography and Victor McLaglen's somewhat boisterous but nevertheless heartfelt performance. Was wondering if you'd seen Arthur Robinson's 1929 version as I've heard it's pretty good also? Hope you're well. :)
I know of the '29 film, but I've not seen it yet, no. I have been ok, considering. If I may be transparent, intensely unfortunately, a few days into this year, someone incredibly close to me left this world unexpectedly and abruptly, someone who I will miss every day going forward. It wouldn't be honest to announce my usual good fortune, because it feels partly disintegrated. I wouldn't want to be too vague about any melancholy I express either, because I do want to express how genuinely uplifting comments as yours' can be during challenging moments of life, and I don't want to, via any vagueness, downplay the brevity of said challenges, so that I can properly express my gratitude for any positivity shared my way, in any context. So I thank you for watching, your kind words submitted here are a comforting presence as I process a profound sense of grief and loss for someone I loved immensely. To you, and to anyone else reading this, please understand if the energy or quality in any AOD uploads dips for the time being, but more, far far more, importantly, let the people you love know that you do, because you never truly know when they may taken away from us. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you very much!!
@@acknowledgingourdiscontentWishing you every condolence possible and thank you for the warm reply. No worries and that's more than understandable during such a time.
I see that you are now into the Ace stories and near the end of the classic era. I wouldnt mind if you could do a review of the TV movie with Paul McGann. I Include him in the classic era although the film was made in 1996.
I would never have thought that PETER Ustinov...had a twin brother ( Walter Slezak)...😅
Shockeye of the Quawncing Grig was one unforgettable character , despite that entire Season being upstaged by Peri's tits .
Actors today can't move nearly that fast.
I am so glad Trog exists. It is workman like film I also like composer John Scott music cues. It was shown on ITV in 1975.
It’s very quick.
cheers, mate!
cheers, mate
Now we come to the beautiful Peri. Eye candy for the male fans. Nicola's American accent not too bad.Pity they could not get a real American to play the part but Nicola will have to do.
So we come to the end of the fifth doctor.Not really in my top 3 but i dont dislike Peter Davison but not a big fan of his doctor. I think the companions were not bad (not an Adric fan ) but really liked Tegan.Now on with no 6.
Good flick if you mute the Voice Over and drop the running speed to 25%. All the good guys have black hats and the big bad guy has a White hat.
I like Teagan's legs. lol. I'm very glad someone in the costume department put her in shorts. :) But yeah, this is a classic Who episode.
I know that this is sped up, but is it the version that was released for the 25th anniversary of the original 20th anniversary story being transmitted because I am sure that after the Fourth Doc got snatched by the Scoop, the image of Tom and Lalla was altered to be on a screen with a black surround but they used the one on the wall of the council chamber which is white made to look black but I think the BBC video version of 1990 has a different copy of that moment, I probably didn't explain that too well but I know what I mean
I actually prefer Torn Curtain to many other popular Hitchcock films such as Vertigo, Topaz, and Frenzy. The acting is great, especially the comic relief by wannabe defector Lila Kedrova.
Narration is too soft nd too fast.
A Pity that the Kamelion robot was not able to be used more.I expect they wanted a K9 type as it was do succesful.However the tragedic death of Mike power made that impossible.Not sure if you had menioned a very good reference book The Television Companion by David Howe and James Walker which gives extensive background informatiion on classic Who.
Turlough was originally in this one, but they wrote him out since they couldn't figure out his controls after his operator died. Sorry, I meant Khamelion, but Turlough might as well not have been in either for how much script he gets.
Condemned to constant change forever...
Always enjoy seeing the Brigadier As i may have said before UNIT related stories specially in the Pertwee era are alway my favourite.
I think that without Terrance Dicks Dr who might not of survived.Without the Target Novelizations the series would have been forgotten.His contribtion to the mythos is undeniable.
Think you need to set out what you gonna cover in the parts upfront, a preface, cause i saw the title - and there aint much mawdryn content ... nothing to bring me back ... only the part 1 hints at more, you could go into charcter development details, but just state it happened or didnt....
Love hearing your thoughts as usual. Hope the year ahead and all those thereafter treat you very well. Since I adore Ford as a filmmaker and especially your channel I can't wait to listen to your thoughts on the rest of his filmography. All the best. :)
Thank you sir, I wish all the same for yourself, these comments really warm my heart!!
Gonna be doing a chronological John Ford watch through myself too! Probably won't be able to keep up with this New Year's project but it will serve as a great one to follow along
Sorry, I’m having a little trouble catching everything you’re saying. Would you mind speaking up a bit?
Bravely tasteless, it's an oddly nauseating rollercoaster ride to be repulsed by one of the most brutal rape /murder scenes in all cinema, then treated to one of Hitch's flashy technical shots (a slow pan away from a closed door to murder seemed oddly coy coming after the aforementioned scene) and within the dull police procedurals throw in some weak humour about lousy english cooking (the era of Fanny Craddock) to cement the dismal atmosphere. I do not like it, but it's something.
A.I is working on the nerves
Not particuarly my favourite.Always thought the Mara was kind of Silly. The snake looked rather fake.Glad it only features in one other story.
Thanks for the Hitchcock series.Looking forward to your other videos,especially of course Dr Who.
Not really one of my favourites.Even though the actors are fine enough.Maybe because i think of Bond when i see Sean Connery.(who along with Roger Moore are my favourite Bonds).
Deliciously evil film and Hitchcock at his most explicit. I love it for how... undisguised it is. He's not trying to hide behind mechanics here, as he does in, say, Psycho (part of reason why I find it so weak); he's expressing himself through his fetishism of all this film's aspects. I do think this wouldn't be as interesting if it wasn't Hitchcock directing it, in part because it feels to be so directly about him. That is what gives its intrigue.
^This is an appraisal of Marnie which I can appreciate, thank you for sharing this!!
Such an underrated and misunderstood film. I love late-career Hitchcock, the directness of his lensing while not sacrificing his precise uber-control.
God this one is excellent. So ugly, so brutal, Hitchcock at his peak grotesque (that corpse scene!) - including the darkish humour of the policeman's dinners (a significant improvement on the terrible comedic dinner scene of '56 The Man Who Knew Too Much.) That this and De Palma's Sisters came out the same year... what a combo!
One of my favourite Hitchcocks, finally. A truly FUN picture to go out on. Love, love, LOVE that final shot - Hitchcock rounding out his career with a big wink, thanks for joining along, you've been tricked and it has been glorious. The 4K on this is also stellar.
Someone needs to tell the narrator that he doesn't need to speak in fast-forward shorthand.
A very good film.The trope of the innocent man on the run.A young pre Mission impossible Martin Landau.James Mason as the villian.One of the best.
This is the one. This is the uncontested Hitchcock masterpiece, always pretty much loved it and saw its brilliance since day 1. Opened my eyes to cinema as it did for so many people.
Great movie. This is art
There is nothing in cinema quite like the dreamlike atmosphere of the scene-setting in this film.
"Silly boy, there aren't any.."
Merry Christmas A!🌺❣
