film fatales #209: bernice bobs her hair (joan micklin silver, 1976)

actually watching movies

I've watched a few movies, mostly junk. It's not easy writing on my phone, so these will be brief.

Hunter Killer (Donovan Marsh, 2018). Generic Gerard Butler action, this time on a submarine. Not much here.

Beginning of the End (Bert I. Gordon, 1957). Generic 50s giant insect movie. I think I underrated it in the past because the special effects are laughably awful, but it's actually not a bad movie for the genre.

The Chase (Arthur Penn, 1966). I've watched it a hundred times, look forward to seeing it a hundred more. If I believed in guilty pleasures, this might be at the top.

Wild in the Streets (Barry Shear, 1968). Another "if I believed in guilty pleasures" movie. Watched it again after seeing congressman Max Frost on TV (Max Frost being the name of the main character in this film). Theme of the young rebelling against old politicians was oddly relevant.
