	Olsen Banden
		The Olsen Gang was one of Nordic Film& biggest successes in modern times, both in Denmark and abroad.
		The premiere for the first Olsen Gang film was held on 11 October 1968.
		Two stalwarts of Danish film, Erik Balling and Henning Bahs, joined forces to think up and write the high jinks that featured in 13 films from 1968-1981.

	High Noon
		Kane's attempts to marshall support for his showdown with the Miller gang constitutes the bulk of the film.
		As the gang awaits Frank's return on the noon train (hence the film's title "High Noon,"), word of their arrival -- and of Frank's release from prison -- reaches the town.
		The gang intends to take its revenge on the townspeople, especially Kane and other law-and-order types, who they consider responsible for sending Frank Miller to prison five years before.

	Made in Hong Kong / Xianggang Zhizao: Sight and Sound Review Archive
		In short, Chan's film was the first Hong Kong feature which could be called an 'indie' in the sense that the Sundance Festival once meant it, but the film is smart and accomplished enough to deserve better than to be treated as an enterprising novelty.
		Neither mindless gang fodder ("I won't kill or risk my life because I'm ordered to — that's dumb,") nor a stereotypical rebel (he treats adults as fallible equals, not authority figures to be challenged), Moon is bracingly real.
		The finished film was rejected by the Hong Kong Film Festival in April 1997, but went on to triumph on the international festival circuit.

	Plot Summary for Curley (1947)
		This film is the first effort, and is virually a remake, with longer running time, of the 1930 "Our Gang" short, "Teacher's Pet." The kids are fretting because their favorite teacher has gotten married and departed town, and they fear her replacement will be not to their liking.
		Hal Roach, who no longer owned the rights to his "Our Gang" (aka The Little Rascals") creation, decided to "create" a similar gang of kids, to be known as "Curley and his Gang", and star them in feature-length films shot in Cinecolor.
		When Curley (Larry Olsen) mistakes the aunt (Kathleen Howard)of the new replacement (Frances Rafferty) as being the new teacher, he and the rest of the kids make plans to discourage her staying.

	The Story of the Kelly Gang - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Story of the Kelly Gang (also screened as Ned Kelly and His Gang) is widely regarded as the world's first feature length film.
		The Story of the Kelly Gang tone is of sorrow depicting Ned Kelly as 'the Last of the Bushrangers', presenting the police hiding under the bed when Aaron Sherritt is shot ('This is the Only Blot on the Police'), and portraying Curnow's action of warning the train as heroic ('Thank God, he Saved the Train').
		First film to run for more than 60 minutes and thus considered the first full-length feature film ever made.

	FilmJudge - I Am A Fugitive from the Chain Gang (1932)
		Mervyn LeRoy’s I Am A Fugitive From The Chain Gang is one of the most influential social conscience films ever made despite the strict studio system in which it was made and the political influences which caused it to be altered so as not to offend the sizeable southern audience.
		This also could allow the MMPDA to argue that "it is not a preachment against the chain gang system in general, but a strongly individualized story of one man’s personal experiences arising from one particular miscarriage of justice" before the state censor boards (Maltby, p 368).
		Using sophisticated cinematic techniques, such as those in I Am A Fugitive From The Chain Gang, they could also claim that their political statements were not a direct reflection of their own views and thereby avoid censorship.

	I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang (1932)
		Burns has been changed to James Allen (Paul Muni) and the chain gang was relocated in Louisiana (interestingly, Georgia officials still became incensed at Warner Brothers and issued what amounted to threats against studio executives and the artists behind this film).
		Ironically, he was engaged in the same kind of work on the chain gang, and ultimately, James is not able to achieve the freedom/authenticity that he desires.
		Burns actually slipped into Hollywood and worked for a few weeks on the film, but ultimately the stress and risk were too much, and he fled back to the safety of New Jersey.

	Musicals: Media Resources Center UCB
		Musical based on the Romeo and Juliet story, set in New York's West Side slums during the late 1950's, with gang warfare erupting when Maria, sister of the leader of the Puerto Rican gang, the Sharks, falls in love with the brother of the leader of the rival Anglo gang, the Jets.
		A musical-comedy spoof of the turmoil that afflicted the motion picture industry in the late 1920's during the changeover from silent films to sound.
		The film concludes with an exuberant, high-kicking cancan finale at the grand opening of the Moulin Rouge.

	Political Film Society - Heist
		The film focuses on a band of thieves which is accustomed to turning over its loot to Bergman (played by Danny DeVito), a fence with a nasty habit of cheating the thieves and of exhibiting a nasty personality.
		After stiffing the gang on a jewelry robbery, Bergman insists that the gang must steal a Swiss gold shipment, using his nephew Jimmy Silk (Sam Rockwell) in the crime to prevent the gang from cheating him.
		The story moves quickly, thanks to director David Mamet, and we see many clever aspects of the heist and many doublecrosses.

	I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang (1932)
		Wearing the horizontally-striped uniform of a prisoner on a chain gang, he is assigned to hard labor in County Camp No. 2 - a primitive, forbidding labor camp with armed guards and a stockade.
		Director Mervyn LeRoy (who had directed the early great gangster film Little Caesar (1930)), delivered this pure and straight-forward film to expectant audiences.
		It told the story of a WWI veteran who faced unemployment, was unjustly convicted of a petty robbery, and then twice served and escaped from a southern chain gang as a hunted fugitive during the 1920s.

	The Jewish Week : Dangerous Men, Unorthodox Women: From the Stern Gang to Judy Chicago @ HighBeam Research
		In 1985, Avi Nesher's relatively gentle film "Rage and Glory," inspired by the activities of the renegade Jewish terrorists known as the Stern Gang during the early days of the Second World War, was attacked in Israel for being pro-PLO.
		It has gone on to become a TV staple at home, and this week will be shown twice at the Walter Reade Theater as part of the Film Society of Lincoln Center's retrospective of Israeli cinema.

	Bright Lights Film Journal Teenage Girl Gangs
		The film’s promise of “not a pretty picture” is especially evident here, when Lorrie tosses a box of old crackers to the obviously starving kid, who devours them hungrily as her bored sister looks on.
		The girl gang is not the driving force of this film; they’re mere titillating window dressing, with only a couple of scenes of robbing and killing and fucking.
		Like the other two films, Teenage Gang Debs was shot in gritty black-and-white, on mostly real locations, giving an authenticity lacking in more upscale takes on the “juvenile delinquency” problem of the time.

	Home Theater Forum - HTF REVIEW: Fat Albert
		Rather, Fat Albert gathered a lot of attention for himself and the gang from the friends whom Doris was feeling isolated from.
		Fat Albert and his junkyard gang feel her tears and feel the need to reach out to the girl by coming through the TV into her living room!
		Fat Albert and his gang are in for a shock of reality too.

	Bailup.com - let the truth be known
		The manager of the Beechworth Courthouse, where Kelly's committal hearing on charges over the Stringybark Creek police shootings was held, said she had also heard the film would be only five per cent fact but agreed it would renew interest in Ned Kelly.
		Ned Kelly is the most anticipated Australian film of the year and it's a film that stands and delivers Heath Ledger in the role of one of our best-known legends.
		The town of Clunes is being used for street scenes in the new movie Ned Kelly and yesterday filming was in full swing.

	Mi Vida Loca: Cineaste
		In commercial films, gang violence is so heavy-handed to the point of titillation that it has become a staple of the gang genre.
		Mi Vida Loca tells the tale of girl gang members from Echo Park, L.A. Focusing on ordinary Chicana homegirls with names like Blue Eyes, Giggles, and Whisper, the film features three interlocking stories orchestrated around the characters, Sad Girl and Mousie (Angel Aviles and Seidy Lopez).
		Chicana gang members did not object to how they were portrayed as much as they objected to the details of their narratives.

	Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed Movie DVD Picture Daphne Velma Cartoon
		Daphne's (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar) not as big an airhead, and Velma really shines, like the geek goddess she is! The story has a ton of fun and freaky ghosts and monsters for the gang to battle.
		Shaggy and the CGI Scoobster are even funnier than the first time and the rest of the gang, including Scooby newbie Seth Green, are a ton of fun too.
		When we meet back up with the gang at Mystery Inc., they are still riding high on the super-cool fame and fortune that started when they solved the Spooky Island case.

		Features biographies of the cast, as well as information on all the television and film projects they created, both individually and as a group, including obscure stuff (like John Cleese's appearance on Doctor Who, the quirky BBC science fiction series).
		Very few of the bits in the movie translated well to audio, so the Monty Python gang wrote a batch of all new sketches to complement the movie (and pad the album).
		An amazing number of accomplished actors and comedians come from an improv background, and we have included a selection of their film and television work available on video.

	Manson Family, The Review (2003)
		The story of Manson’s rise from hippie songwriter to rage-fuelled gang leader is narrated by the incarcerated, middle-aged family members, while Van Bebber reconstructs the actual events from the late-sixties, occasionally cutting to the TV producer and a Manson-fixated gang who are out to get him.
		Like Ruggero Deodato in Cannibal Holocaust, Van Bebber manipulates the colour of his film stock and adds scratches to give the photography a realistically worn look, and the soundtrack is a dizzying, overlapping jumble of voices, music (including some of Manson’s own) and dissonant noise.
		The Manson Family may be a wild, flawed film, but Van Bebber deserves respect for remaining true to his uncompromising vision and delivering a genuinely unsettling piece of underground cinema.

	Mi Vida Loca - My Crazy Life
		The film is sympathetic to these young women, presenting their stories honestly and with a visual flair that the subjects themselves would probably appreciate.
		The film was shot on location in Echo Park, Los Angeles, California.
		The film is a wonderfully realized slice-of-life: sometimes tragic, sometimes funny, and, despite its seemingly incongruously elegeiac tone, with a strong ring of truth.

	The Apple Dumpling Gang DVD Review
		The decision to cut back The Apple Dumpling Gang (and the two Witch Mountain movies) into single disc releases, is disappointing, but fortunately, much of the care that is seen in the other Vault Disney/"Special Edition" sets is present here too.
		The bonus features really do whet one's appetite for other old live action films from the studio, many of which should be making their way to DVD in some form over the next few years.
		Topics discussed include the significance of the title (which is given rather passing treatment in the film), the kids' experience as young actors, the physical demands of the film's stunts, working with late director Norman Tokar and star Bill Bixby, and the comic team of Knotts and Conway, who are recorded together.

	The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again DVD Review
		Unlike The Apple Dumpling Gang, this poor DVD has only a fullscreen, barebones disc under the "Walt Disney Film Classics: The Don Knotts Collection." Though the film is a riot, this DVD is probably worth passing on, unless you simply must have it after watching The Apple Dumpling Gang.
		In The Apple Dumpling Gang Rides Again, the most comedic supporting element of the first film comes to the foreground, as Tim Conway and Don Knotts return as the likable bumbling thieves Amos and Theodore.
		The Apple Dumpling Gang had many of the things people have loved in Disney movies — little children, adventure, comedy, and animals.

	Roger L. Simon: ANOTHER SLASHER FLICK AT THE MULTIPLEX!
		A lot of people are alluding to the PR campaign directed in support of the film, but are neglecting to take the opposing PR campaign into account as well.
		So yet again, cannot help but think that the PR campaign directed against the film has led a lot of people to be predisposed against it.
		Criticizing this movie amounts to "Anti-Christian bigotry," and those who were all for the "inter-faith" dialogue quickly managed to shut up the inter-religious opposition to this movie, led by the conservative radio talk show hosts.

	More Australian than Aristotelian: The Australian Bushranger Film, 1904-1914
		And finally, there is the end of the story: the bushranger's capture and/or death, the reconstitution of authority coincident with the end of the film.
		By a “feature” I mean here a multi-reel film which may reasonably be presumed to have been presented as the most noteworthy or prominent part of a program of motion pictures, that is, as the “featured” film on the program.
		In all, about 11 films in which bushrangers were the featured attraction were made between November, 1910 and July, 1912, when the boom seems to have come to an end.

	Untitled Document
		The Story of the Kelly Gang was responsible for starting a chain of similar Australian films, which portray the outsider outlaw as a misunderstood likeable leading protagonist.
		Typical American Westerns are generally known for the drunken bar room antics, the stand off’s between the underdog and the villain, and of course the gang battles.
		To name a few Mick Jaggar stared in the 1970’s film Ned Kelly, Yahoo Serious had audiences laughing at the comical side of the outlaw in Reckless Kelly, Heath Ledger played Ned Kelly and then there was Reckless Kelly, which poked fun at the Ned Kelly lifestyle.

	Year of the Dragon.
		All in all, Year of the Dragon is a rather mediocre film, which contains much unnecessarily offensive material and dialogue.
		Perhaps the film would have been much less offensive if the producers had more accurately represented Chinese-American organized crime as several pervasive gangs and secret societies, rather than as one ponderous, hulking illuminatti-type group.
		In fact, one of the "advantages" of the tong-gang alliances is that the tongs exercise some control over the gangs and try and avoid outbreaks of such disruptive, financially unhealthy and attention grabbing activities.

	Gordon Douglas (director) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bored of Education won the 1936 Academy Award for Live Action Short Film, and was the only Our Gang entry ever honored with the award.
		His Our Gang films, featuring Spanky, Alfalfa, Darla, Porky, Buckwheat, Waldo, Butch, and Woim, are the most familiar films in the series’ twenty-two year canon.
		By 1934, Douglas was assistant to director Gus Meins, and served as assistant director on Laurel and Hardy’s 1934 film Babes in Toyland, and on the Our Gang comedies made between 1934 and mid-1936.
