Golden Saddles, Silver Spurs
6.7/10
This documentary traces the history of the B-Western from it's silent movie origins to its demise in the early 1950s. The film contains a large number of scenes from early silents and seldom seen films, as well as old photographs of the stars and one-sheet advertisements for lost films.
Starlit Days at the Lido
5.8/10
Basically this is a commercial for Hollywood's Lido Lounge and for MGM contract players. The Lido is a large watering hole; we visit one afternoon with an orchestra playing, all sorts of stars and would-be stars sitting at tables near the pool alongside paying customers, and bathing beauties parading and diving. The Lido's manager, Reggy Denny, introduces the stars in the audience. He's sometimes interrupted by someone who does a bit, sings a song, or otherwise entertains: most of these are novelty acts. By the end, everyone's having a swell time.
Hollywood My Home Town
7.6/10
Ken Murray narrates his 16mm home movies shot over 35 years in Hollywood.
Hollywood Without Make-Up
7.2/10
A collection of behind the scenes and home movies from the golden age of Hollywood.
