Cinema Cycle - That's Entertainment III


CINEMA CYCLE
(Cardio Workout And Reviewing Movies At The Same Time)

Copy of Thats Entertainment!-Vol3.jpg


DATE REVIEWED: 10/13/2017


FORMAT: VHS

TIME RIDDEN / FILM LENGTH: 1 hour 57 minutes

DISTANCE RIDDEN WHILE VIEWING: 37.7 miles

TOTAL CINEMA MILES LOGGED: 7696.7 miles

SYNOPSIS: Mining the MGM vaults for more cinematic gold.

CONCEPT IN RELATION TO THE VIEWER: There is individual talent and then there is corporate talent.  This is the latter.

PROS AND CONS:  Not much negative can be said about this series of films.  For the cinephile, it is a gold mine of rare footage that is seldom seen.

Of particular interest in this edition of the series are the outtakes.  The scenes that were filmed but never used in the final cut of the film, or the film was abandoned altogether and never seen.

One comes across more than anything else in this volume, is all of the technical ability that the large studios had to manufacture entertainment on this scale and scope.

This film is a part of my LaserDisc Collection.

Clicking on the title will take you to the Internet Movie Database (IMDB) entry for this film. 

This film was viewed while exercising on my recumbent cycle.  A summary of my time spent working out on my journey through movie-land can be found on Strava.com.
