	The Smallest Show on Earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Smallest Show on Earth is a 1957 British film, directed by Basil Dearden, and starring Bill Travers, Virginia McKenna, Peter Sellers, Margaret Rutherford, Bernard Miles, Leslie Phillips, Francis De Wolff, George Cross, June Cunningham and Sid James.
		The Smallest Show on Earth has a reputation as a generally well-regarded British comedy and this is because of the character performances of Rutherford, Sellers and Miles as the three old eccentrics; but of the three, only Rutherford (named Mrs.

	Scifilm -- Reviews, KRONOS (1957)
		Maybe it's just conditioning: three classes in film studies as an undergrad, and two years in a graduate program where I was force-fed Kenneth Burke and Roland Barthes have left me unable to watch a movie without analyzing it and searching for thematic relevance.
		Considering the low budget on the film, the effects are as good as anything featured in any of the bigger-budgeted studio films of the fifties.
		As it is, KRONOS is one of the few SF films of the era in which nuclear weapons are shown to only to be virtually impotent in dealing with the menace, but only make it stronger.

	Film History of the 1950s
		Jailhouse Rock (1957) is generally acknowledged as his most famous and popular film, but he also appeared in Loving You (1957) (noted for his first screen kiss) and in director Michael Curtiz' King Creole (1958) as a New Orleans teen rebel (acclaimed as one of his best acting roles) before the decade ended.
		By the 70s, his film roles had deteriorated, and although he returned to stage performances and revived his singing career, he was physically on the decline until his death in August, 1977 of heart disease and drug abuse.

		Supposedly the film is based on a Graham Greene story that had since been made into the film 1957 film Across the Bridge.
		Film editor Zach Staenberg is partly to blame for the lackluster look of this film -- a far cry from the great work he did for The Matrix last year, which brought him an Academy Award and a Golden Brando Award.

		The basic premise of the film is that an alien race has fallen victim to a terrible disease on their homeworld, and they are dying off at an alarming rate.
		Their best scientists have so far been unable to come up with anything to stop the spread of the disease, and time is growing short for their world, as the population rapidly dwindles.
		There's no real stand out performances in the film, but when the script is as poor as this one, it's always going to be a challenge for the actors to pull anything out of it.

		The only Hollywood film about communism that takes the form of a documentary; it is also critical of using slander, gossip, etc. to attack individuals, as HUAC was doing.
		In this category can be found films that portrayed socialist ideas or the working classes in a positive light, that showed Moscow as a worthy ally in World War II (at the behest of the wartime U.S. government), that revealed antisemiticism, or that simply cast capitalists as villains.
		Perhaps the only wartime film that is pro-Soviet government as well as pro-Russian people, this film is based on the autobiography of Joseph Davies (FDR's ambassador to the Soviet Union in the late thirties).

		Infamous adult film star Traci Lords, now of legal age, makes her "legit" acting debut in a remake of Roger Corman's 1957 sci-fi film of the same name.

		While it may not be a classic of sci-fi film making, Not of this Earth is certainly a fun ride.

	The Carnivorous Plant FAQ: Movies and media
		For a long time I had disqualified this film on the grounds that while the tomatoes were clearly murderous, I did not think they were carnivorous.
		From this description, you might think that the film qualifies perfectly as a carnivorous plant film, but the problem is that the tree is actually animated by evil forces and is not really a carnivorous plant.
		All I know about this film is that the film seems to involve a landscaper who somehow becomes a part human, part plant monster, and who starts getting murderous.

	Conquest of the Planet of the Apes
		Boule, who also authored the novel that served as the basis for the 1957 film Bridge Over The River Kwai, revealed a particularly shocking version of the future in his 1963 book, one which would continue to captivate the imaginations of science-fiction and adventure fans for decades to come.
		In 1968 Twentieth Century Fox released Planet of the Apes, their massively popular big-screen adaptation, and a bona fide industry was born as the public flocked to see humans on the short end of the evolutionary stick.
		In the preceding film, Escape From the Planet of the Apes (1971), Zira and Cornelius flee the destruction of the earth in the 23rd century and travel by spacecraft back in time to the Los Angeles of the 1970's.

		Rumor has it that this film came about as the result of a wager between Corman and Wynorski that the younger director wouldn't be able to shoot an adequate remake if restricted to the same 12-day shooting schedule and a similar budget.
		In the original, those who are not of this earth are humanoid creatures who speak in suspiciously thick Eastern European accents, behave mysteriously, dress in undertakers' suits, Ray Ban sunglasses and homburg hats (and MUST have inspired Belushi and Akroyd in creating the Blues Brothers).
		NOT OF THIS EARTH was a 1988 remake of a 1950s Corman film which was widely touted as the first legitimate role for Traci Lords after she was exposed having been underage in the porn industry.

		Aside from a few technical, sexual, and thematic elements unattainable in 1957, this new version remains faithful to the tone of the original.
		Paul Johnson (Michael York), while appearing human, is an alien from a distant planet, sent to Earth in search of a cure for the rare blood disease threatening his homeland.
		While such contemporary themes, as well as some suitably slimy special effects, have updated this NOT OF THIS EARTH, it is its faith to the Corman ideals of fun-loving camp that ultimately redeem the film and make it an enjoyable experience.
