I saw 3 films on aeroplanes, as that is the only place I really see them these days.

I enjoy BECAUSE THEY'RE YOUNG - I like the title song and all of the cast....Dick Clark is sort of annoying...but he is earnest.

Michael Callan also does a dance number in Gidget Goes Hawaiian that is very nice.  He is traveling to the 50th state with his all-guy dance troupe and they are all going girl crazy....and Michael dances a tame MAMBO with Deborah Walley.

Lisa Frankenstein. A “quirky” comedy about a tragic goth girl in the ‘80s who resurrects a corpse who becomes her pal. Written by Diablo Cody so it’s heavy on the cute. The lead girl is good. But it’s a copy of Edward Scissorhands, basically. A mixed bag.

When Deborah Walley got a special credit on the "Mothers In Law" opening credits, I had no idea at that time that she was pretty well-known.  But it was the equivalent of having her name in a box under all the other credits. 

Everyone else's character had the actor's own first name, but she was "Deborah Walley as Susie," IIRC. (or was it Suzie?)

I recall Johnny Carson jokingly mentioning a possible sequel called "Gidget Goes Ya-ha!"

Inside.
This has Willem Dafoe as an art thief who gets trapped in a penthouse apartment he’s trying to rob. He’s more or less the only person in the movie. We follow his attempts to escape. Interesting if not completely satisfying.

Lastly a documentary called “Closed for Storm” about the Six Flags park that was abandoned in New Orleans after Katrina. Mildly fascinating. Hard to work up much outrage about it since there are many bigger problems in New Orleans. I hadn’t realized the park was so new when Katrina hit. Hilariously inappropriate stock music from old nature films or something used in this low-budget doc.

"Closed For Storm" sounds interesting.

I really liked Donald Sutherland in everything I saw him in.

I remember him first from a Hammer Film called Horror Train - I think.  A man read cards for five different folks on a train trip - and they each had terrible things in store for them.

Of course in the end it was revealed that the man with the cards was Death and that they all had died when the train crashed.....

Godzilla x Kong is silly. The cast of humans is enjoyable. The rest is CGI or special effects. and they are acceptable but not overly involving.

I always forget he was in that, DR Jrand73.

DR. TERROR’S HOUSE OF HORRORS.  An Amicus film. (Love those.)

Thanks for the clarification DR CHAS SMITH - you are indeed correct!

Amicus vs. Hammer I remember the many discussions I had with friends about the differences at the time.....

Deborah Walley was married for awhile to fellow Beach movie performer John Ashley - they had two sons.

I always enjoyed her performances - especially Summer Magic with Hayley Mills and Eddie Hodges.....

I am off to my new audiologist to pay for services I normally get free.  At the least I hope he is as skilled as my audiologist I have to leave.  When no one answers the phone or returns your calls for two months there isn't much choice but to leave :(

Did anyone ever release Henry Mancini’s discarded score for Frenzy?
