CineSavant Column
Hello!
Contributed by Gary Teetzel is a nice thread from the Classic Horror Film Board, commemorating the 100th anniversary of Willis O’Brien’s original silent feature The Lost World, and quoting from some facebook posts by Greg Kulon :
An actual London pub called The Blue Posts is seen in the film, with a stop-motion Brontosaurus passing by and causing damage. A cute photo comparison post gives us the pub as seen in the film, and as it presently exists, for a little fan reunion just a few days ago.
A very nice little item!
Meanwhile, I’m explaining the presence of just one review today with a trip to Indiana over the weekend, to confab with family and see the sights. As it turns out they’ve got a very nice little dinosaur museum in South Bend, which is conveniently right next door to a working chocolate factory that gives free tours, and samples. Can’t beat that.
There’s a short stack of new discs I haven’t even opened yet … so the reviews will flow right away. Shouldn’t have another interruption ’til September at the earliest. Thanks to Charlie Largent for coming to the rescue.
Thanks for reading! — Glenn Erickson
