My Thoughts:

Another fun road movie. Liked this one quite a bit. Not sure if I can say it is my favorite or not yet. They do make a great team. Though in this one Bob hope really went overboard on breaking the fourth wall. He did it several times here. Well worth the time put in to watch it.

Umberto D., a review by Antares


Umberto D. (1952) 89/100 - At first, I wasn't sure if I was going to make it through this film. The main character, Umberto, is a surly septuagenarian who I found no feelings for right from the start. But then, after Umberto saves Flike from the dog pound, and its inevitable consequences, I started to see the human side of this lonely, desperate man. I could step inside his shoes, because I have no children, my wife is six years older than me and I've passed the half century mark in age. What if my wife dies first? I'm not very close to my sisters. Will I be discarded by society and its ever changing feelings towards its elder population? This movie puts it all on the plate, and it does it very well. I don't think it is a film that I will re-visit very often, because quite frankly, it scares the shit out of me on a personal level. But overall, I'd highly recommend it.

What the color coding means...

Teal = Masterpiece
Dark Green = Classic or someday will be
Lime Green = A good, entertaining film
Orange = Average
Red = Cinemuck
Brown = The color of crap, which this film is

A pretty good episode. We find out in this episode how Fred ended up in that alternate dimension. While a decent episode... it is a little on the slow side.
