Thought is just fine. It tells you to save erudite commentary for a movie that is better than The Crawling Eye.

This is an interesting one. It's a movie from a cheap DVD set, Sherlock Holmes and the Voice of Terror. Classic Holmes movies (Basil Rathbone) were earlier than this, horse and carriage stuff,...

The other thing I recall about this one was the Jackson hired lip readers so they could get the words of the soldiers right. That made it actually kind of spooky.

Re: MST3K: Anti-cinema?

We all need some junk in our life, otherwise we become self righteous. Shows like MST3K and my local equivalent, The Ghost Host, do that. Too much Citizen Kane will damage your neurons.

Probably not. Race was an even bigger barrier in Franklin's time than it is today. Someone would have made note of that. Also, nothing suggests that Franklin had that big, booming voice.
