In this week’s video, L.E. and Nathan talk about the man deified by some, vilified by others; a man without whom we would have no lightsabers or Jedi. Of course, we would have no Jar Jar or re-re-remastered cuts, and probably no walkie talkies in ET either. Yep, we’re talking George Lucas. Click the link to watch!

Candid Camera personality from the mid 60’s, Allen Funt, takes a look at how people react to provocative or sexual situations, in the suitably titled, What Do You Say to a Naked Lady?, a film full of hidden cameras, interviews, and naked people. It’s informative, funny, and is a fascinating window into how people reacted [...]

Watching his films, we get but a glimpse into the inner workings of Alfred Hitchcock’s vast creative faculties. And Rebecca is but one example of his filmmaking prowess.

The name was not the most ridiculous part of The Manchu Eagle Murder Caper Mystery. I was never sure while watching it whether the movie wanted to be taken seriously. There were many scenes, and certain dialogue sections that were all too wacky, but then at the same time, it tried to be this murder [...]
