Genre: Comedy / Drama
Director: Steven Spielberg  
Cast: Dan Aykroyd, Ned Beatty, John Belushi, Treat Williams, Nancy Allen, Robert Stack, Christopher Lee, Slim Pickens, Elisha Cook Jr., Warren Oates, Lorraine Gary, Bobby DiCicco, Murray Hamilton, Tim Matheson, Toshiro Mifune

  This film takes the events at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, and then goes on to a make-believe story of the Japanese attack on Los Angeles. General Joseph Stilwell (Robert Stack) is in command of the military protecting California's coast, and Sgt. Tree (Dan Aykroyd) is assigned the job of installing a 40mm anti-aircraft gun in homeowner Ward Douglas' (Ned Beatty) backyard. When California is attacked, Hollywood Boulevard lies in ruins, and craziness is experienced by the military and civilians as well. Special effects really help this film.

  [Full Title: "Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb."] Peter Sellers plays three roles (U.S. President, British officer, and nuclear scientist) in this farce about dropping the nuclear bomb. Slim Pickens plays Major T.J. "King" Kong, a U.S. pilot flying his bomber loaded with nuclear weapons when he receives orders to attack the Soviet Union. The other planes are recalled or shot down, but Kong evades the missiles shot at him and completes his mission in a very unique way. This movie is both thought-provoking and amusing. The film received four Academy Award nominations (Best Picture, Actor (Sellers), Director, and Writing). A real classic.

Twice in a Lifetime   1974     2 stars    TV, 78 min.

Director: Herschel Daugherty  
Cast: Ernest Borgnine, Della Reese, Eric Laneuville, Slim Pickens, Arte Johnson, Vito Scotti, Warren Vanders

  This pilot for a TV series didn't bear fruit, nor did it deserve to. It is, however, worth a look if you are bored, as a loud and salty retired navy cook (Ernest Borgnine) operates a tug. Life on the waterfront sets the scene.
