Have started to rewatch "Frequency" having seen it some years ago. As often happens, it doesn't seen nearly as good as I remember.
Of course that's the problem with memory. I've found that the more time which has passed, the more I misremember things.
At age 11 I saw and loved "Land Of The Pharaohs". Saw it again recently, holy jumping shit balls, what a crock! Jack Hawkins is wooden, but Joan Joan Collins is much nicer to look at than I remember. Sadly, there isn't actually a scene where you see blokes being eaten by crocodiles .( due to cowardice in battle)
I didn't even try to watch "Robby The Robot Meets The Invisible Boy". I think made shortly after Forbidden Planet because every one loved Robby. As it is you see more than enough of the invisible boy, the whiny little twerp..
BUT, some films hold up; Forbidden Planet is still pretty good. So it should be, it's based on Shakespeare's "The Tempest". The matte work is still terrific . On re watching, I discovered Anne Francis had a face on which you could break bricks. I suspect that's why they put her in such a skimpy costume. So people wouldn't look at her face.
