Roger corman's autobiography was the subject of my 5th grade book report. It was called how I made a hundred movies in Hollywood and never lost a dime. It had interviews with literally every actor he had worked with, and many that are now considered masters of their craft. Not just actors and actresses, either. Directors, producers, script writers, editors, and so on, we're all there to sing the praises of Roger. And I believe rightly so, still to this day even. I had enjoyed his films ever since I was a child scrambling through the back section of the Chicago tribunes weekly TV guide. That was the best place to find any movies you were looking to see that you had only heard of through friends, or read about in magazines and books. Carmen's films were mostly late night fodder, with the occasional showing of some of his bigger films on Saturday and Sunday afternoons....... Usually after samurai Sunday. The son of svengoolie would play quite a bit of his horror films, too. Son of svengoolie is where I got my first taste of Rogers pictures. Some of them were his Edgar Allan Poe films, which I watched simply because I was 4 years old and was fascinated with Vincent Price and Boris karloff. I only understood a little bit of the source material because my mom was a big Edgar Allan Poe fan, and explained a lot to me. I also was obsessed with Little shop of horrors as a kid, so watching his original version, which had a darker tone I felt, made it one of the first horror films 2 irk me in an unsettling way, despite it also making me laugh out loud. I tried to tape them off television, as well as collect them on old VHS tapes from garage sales, video store sales, and so on. I would get them as gifts for my birthday and Christmas from both my dad and my aunt who knew how much I love those films. Eventually, they would just get me any film that had Rodger corman's name on it. And even though it wasn't a horror film, I still enjoyed every minute of it. The reason I'm mentioning all this now is because the film that you have covered is one of the few films I have yet to sit down and actually watch of rogers. I've seen bits and pieces of it, but I've never had the chance to sit down and fully see it from beginning to end. My plan on doing so very soon. And I always enjoy watching your reviews of these films. Even though I may have seen most of them, it reminds me of why I should watch them again, and possibly with a different perspective. So I think you very much for all that you Sometime soon I will tell you about the brief period in which I was able to work with Roger. And when I say work, I really mean just talking to him and mostly his advisors about a few films I had of his that were work Prints

@fletchkeilman22052 жыл бұрын
@@Axolotl_Mischief dude! Seriously! I was a Cosby fanatic as a kid!. I still have two of his autographed photos framed in my gym. I'm not speaking about this as some sort of edgy contrarian, or the whole "Who cares about SA?!?" crowd, either. I was trying to sort the man from his work. But, no matter what I said or felt, I would be lambasted anytime someone saw it, or knew that I had them. I'm definitely not a fan of such antics, and I'm speaking from experience, unfortunately. However, I can't be expected to not enjoy something I held in such high regard at one point in my life....... mostly my childhood. People talk about their first kiss, or their first grade love, or even their first dog or cat. But people also talk about the first time someone or something made them laugh to the point of tears or urinating themselves. I don't agree with anything that the man was convicted of. And yes. I have since taken down his pictures from my gym wall. But I can't stop laughing and reminiscing when I hear his jokes, or watch his sitcoms that I grew up with. It's just the way it is, unfortunately. This is a tough one. I will admit. But, I think we can all sort of understand that so many people that we hold in such high regard, can still be horrible people. Does that mean they get a pass simply because they are influential to a whole country full of people? No. I think it really just boils down to the individual, and how much they want to take in from what transpired. I also don't want it to seem as if I don't support or believe the victims. Far.... FAR FAR....from the truth as well. Again...as someone who sympathizes ultimately from experience in those matters, it does crush me at times to think of what he did. Oh well. Gotta get back to life, instead of worrying about former Hollywood celebs, I suppose.
