Young Frankenstein (1974) Mel Brooks

November 16th 2024

[vertigoartgore]

Mel Brooks's Young Frankenstein turns 50 these days. Feel old yet ?

50 years later, it seems director Mel Brooks and actor Gene Hackman (as the blind priest) are the only ones still alive among the cast of this great 70s movie (there's also Anne Beesley who played the little girl).

American comedian Sonny Mars was the biggest comedian in Montreal in the 1940s and early 1950s for no particular reason. He was a regular at the Tic Toc Club and El Morroco - frequently bringing an obscure singer named Dean Martin with him.

Sonny's son, Kenneth Mars, became a beloved comic actor appearing in the films of Mel Brooks.

I made a video about the largely forgotten Graham Chapman movie Yellowbeard. Written by Graham Chapman, Peter Cook and Bernard McKenner. Staring: Graham Chapman, Peter Cook, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Cheech & Chong, Marty Feldman, Kenneth Mars, Spike Milligan and more. But is it any good? (SPOILERS: It's better than most people tell you it is)

All of these actors are either too old, dead, or probably uninterested in taking the role for one reason or another.

The Little Mermaid (1989, Ron Clements and John Musker)

07/02/2024

The Little Mermaid is a 1989 animated film directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation and based on the fairy tale of the same name by Hans Christian Andersen. The original version uses the voices of: Jodi Benson, Pat Carroll, Samuel Wright, Christopher Daniel Barnes, Kenneth Mars, Buddy Hackett, Jason Marin and René Auberjonois.

Distributed by Buena Vista Pictures, it is the 28th Disney Classic according to the official canon. The Little Mermaid was released in theaters on November 17, 1989, to critical acclaim, earning praise for its animation, characters and music. It was also a commercial success, earning $84 million at the North American box office during its initial release and a total gross of $233 million worldwide. The film won two Academy Awards for best soundtrack and best song (Under the Sea).

Following the success of the 1989 Disney/Amblin film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, The Little Mermaid has been credited with breathing new life into the art of Disney animated films, following a series of critical or commercial failures produced by Disney since the early seventies. It also began the era known as the Disney Renaissance.

A stage adaptation of the film with a book by Doug Wright and additional songs by Alan Menken and new lyricist Glenn Slater opened in Denver in July 2007 and began performances on Broadway on January 10, 2008.

In 2022 the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

Night Moves (Arthur Penn, 1975)

Cast: Gene Hackman, Jennifer Warren, Susan Clark, Edward Binns, Harris Yulin, Kenneth Mars, Melanie Griffith, James Woods, Janet Ward, John Crawford. Screenplay: Alan Sharp. Cinematography: Bruce Surtees. Production design: George Jenkins. Film editing: Dede Allen. Music: Michael Small. 

In the twisty, satisfying noir Night Moves Gene Hackman shows once again what a terrific actor he was, even though he seems to me a little miscast as a retired professional football player. He brings it off anyway, even managing to be sexy despite a pornstache and one of those '70s hairstyles that looked like a toupee even when they weren't.
