Just You and Me, Kid (1979)
Light and entertaining. Would stand up to repeats if we only had the DVD.
I've never understood why this movie has not made it to VHS or DVD. Would it be contractual problems, maybe? Carl Ballentine, Key Luke, Burl Ives..never mind the obvious; that all of George Burns needs to be available. Nothing deep, just light and entertaining. Brooke Shields was good, and so was everyone else. I'd like to have Bill's alarm clock too. The car and the pylons, the breaking pencils, the grocery store carry-out boy, and George Burns typical, poised response are the little things that add up to make us keep chuckling. Too many movies aim for "zany" or "wacky" or "hilarious" and fall flat. Sometimes chuckling is all we need. Bring on the DVD.
Shônen Sarutobi Sasuke (1959)
Fantastic classic story of gaining the power to triumph over evil.
I saw this movie on the big screen when I was 9 years old. The witch was as scary and impressive as the one in Sleeping Beauty. The boy's progression through learning magic was inspiring that all things are possible.
I continue to hope that this classic is not lost forever.
