A Lawless Street (1956) 77 minutes Cast: Randolph Scott, Angela Lansbury, Warner Anderson, Jean Parker, Wallace Ford Director: Joseph H. Lewis Music: Paul Sawtell
Yes, it's time for yet another Randolph Scott western! In this one, he is a lawman who moves from town to town in the Colorado territory, ridding them of outlaws. He is married to a lovely singer (Lansbury) but she leaves him and won't return as long as he is involved in this dangerous duty but he has one last town he wants to clean up. This was a good western with some dynamite stuntwork (especially in one big fight scene between Scott and a large extremely strong foe) and is quickly paced. The DVD has a good quality print but no real extras...apart for some trailers of other westerns.

DVD Extras:My Thoughts This is without a doubt the best 3D I have seen in the cinema since Avatar. LOTGLOTGRedwallA sample how visually stunning this film is (I recommend you watch in 1080p):
Synopsis: Unlike AMC's Halt and Catch Fire, HBO chose to do a comedy based on today's Silicon Valley. While working at a Google-like company and living in a start-up incubator, Richard almost accidentally develops a new super-compressing, lossless audio algorithm. And now he has to make a choice: Sell it to his employer for a fixed sum and be done with it or go with an investor and create his own success story.
My Opinion: Unlike The Big Bang Theory this is not a laugh track comedy and it doesn't expect you to laugh or even just smile after every sentence. The characters are funny just the way they are and I really enjoyed this whole first season.
Interesting side note: The Weissman score which is used on the show like a scoreboard of the home vs. guest team was developed just for this show. But it was developed by actual computer scientists at Stanford University and is currently adapted for the real world.
Gavin Belson: "It's weird. They always travel in groups of five. These programmers, there's always a tall skinny white guy, a short skinny Asian guy, fat guy with a ponytail, some guy with crazy facial hair and then an East Indian guy. It's like they trade guys until they all have the right group."
