3 Classic Abbot & Costello Features Of The Silver Screen : short review

3 Classic Abbot & Costello Features Of The Silver Screen

Three features starring Abbott and Costello. African Screams - Buzz Johnson (Bud Abbott) and Stanley Livingston (Lou Costello) go on an African safari in search of treasure. Buzz is a bookseller who tricks Diana Emerson (Hillary Brooke) into believing that his fellow bookseller Stanley is an expert on Africa. They are thereby abducted by Diana's henchmen who expect the two self proclaimed hunters to lead her to an African tribe. On the way there they run up against giant apes, lion tamers, and a wild river. Jack And The Beanstalk - One of the few colour feature films Abbott and Costello made, starting out in black and white, but soon spring-boarding into a truly colourful fairy tale. Lou plays the bumbling fool Jack, repeatedly tricked by the conniving Mr. Dinglepuss (Abbott), who sells him magic beans. Their adventures take them up the beanstalk, where they find a magic castle, a talking harp, and a hen that lays golden eggs. They also encounter a fearsome giant! One of the funniest and most enjoyable of Bud and Lou's many movies. The Abbot And Costello Show - A classic episode of the popular Abbot and Costello Show with guests Jane Russell and Rhonda Fleming.

Barbarians V All Blacks - 1973

The full match between the Barbarians and the All Blacks, regarded by many as the finest match ever televised. This was the final match of the All Blacks' tour, which had seen them record victories over Wales, Scotland and England only a drawn game against Ireland had prevented them from achieving a Grand Slam. The Barbarians' side included some of the truly great players of the era, men such as Duckham, Gibson, J P R Williams, Bennett, Edwards, McBride and Carmichael. The team displayed an admirable commitment to that brand of open, attacking rugby which has come to be associated with Barbarian sides over the years - the tone of the whole match being set by Gareth Edwards's try in the third minute, which must rank as one of the best ever. This, together with some equally exciting play from an All Blacks team with outstanding players such as Going, Batty and Williams, made for a spectacular game in which one thrill followed another!

Tony Palmer's 2-hour film does not shirk the darker side of Arnold's life, however. It stages the triumph of man of indomitable will against all the odds, the story of a great survivor.
