"All I know is, the Democrats elected a president, and the Republicans cheated 'em out of it!" No, this is not a Michael Moore documentary, but a 1968 Disney musical. The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band is probably the best musical comedy set against the 1888 presidential campaign between Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison. The family band, a bit like American prairie Von Trapps, settles in the Dakota territory. Problem is, Grandpappy Walter Brennan is a diehard Democrat, and Dakota is rife with Republicans, including the suitor (John Davidson at his dimpledest) to his granddaughter (Lesley Ann Warren). The score by the Sherman brothers is not their best, and the "family fare" approach almost killed Disney films during this era. Nice to see old hoofer Buddy Ebsen get to dance a bit, and trivia buffs should note that Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn are first linked here--he's one of the kids, she's a featured dancer. --Robert Horton

Description

There's magic in the memories as great Disney moments are captured right here for you and your family to enjoy in THE ONE AND ONLY, GENUINE, ORIGINAL FAMILY BAND -- a large slice of Americana set to music and dance. This is the captivating saga of a musical family that homesteads in the Dakota Territory of the 1880s and becomes embroiled in the presidential battle between Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison. A robust, song-filled movie for those who enjoy a good love story, admire a family that sticks together through thick and thin, or respond to rousing, Broadway-style music ... composed by the Academy Award(R) winning Sherman Brothers (1964 Best Score, Best Original Song, MARY POPPINS).

If You Like Songs About Politics........2007-04-06

This 1968 film was doomed to failure before they started, when someone decided to write songs about politics in a movie about politics. It is like a song about a dead camel; does not matter how talented the song writers are; how interesting is song about a dead camel going to be? The political song is catchy "Were going over with Grover", but politics in our time is depressing, and we would like another topic. The successful song in "Mary Poppins" of the secret suffragettes (women's Right to vote) was different, a song saying humor not politics, by exceptional character actresses. It appears the producer has broken "Mary Poppins" into a formula to apply here, and like applying a formula to religion, a formula does not give personality, spirit, and soul. "Mary Poppins" was not made with a formula, and was a great film.

Of some interest to see Walter Brennan, Buddy Ebsen; and some children who go on to other movies and television. Butch Patrick is charming as the boy politely questioning the substitute teacher's credentials (the best scene). Too bad he was type-cast as Eddie Munster, as he shows charming talent at a young age.

It is a shame Disney stopped doing musicals. It was not the song-writers.

Better Disney type musicals are: "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" and "Summer Magic".

Simply Divine!.......2007-03-30

I remember seeing "Family Band" when it first came out on the big screen in the 1960's and was enchanted with it then. I am still enjoying it today on DVD. Everything about it is so beautiful. The digital remastering, the bright, crisp images, the gorgeous music, etc. So many talented actors are in this film, and the score is chock full of tunes that will stay in your head for a long time. The music is so fine. Like "Mary Poppins," the Sherman brothers worked their magic again to produce tunes that will keep you singing for days. The dancing is so good, too. And then there's the story! You'll get an American history lesson on top of everything else. You can amaze your friends with your knowledge of the Grover Cleveland/Benjamin Harrison presidential campaign of the late 1880's! This is truly a family movie, one that will surely please the little ones as well as the adults. And any musicians and singers in your viewing audience will love and appreciate the talent and hard work that went into making this musical. I just cannot say enough about this fine movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it. They just don't make 'em like this anymore, sadly.

No story line.......2007-03-23

This movie did not have much of a plot. I know it was made to be a musical, but most musicals have more of a plot than this one. I enjoyed watching Walter Brennan and Buddy Ebsen, two classic actors.

Not the best Disney movie ever made but...........2007-03-10

I'm a big fan of Disney movies, and sappy-ness doesn't bother me, but this was off the scales corny. Not much story, too much dancing around. Kind of chilidish for grownups and hard for kids to understand some of it, as it's mostly about politics, so it kind of gets lost in the middle. Buddy Ebsen, though, gives his usual stellar performance, and Kurt Russel and Goldie Hawn appear in the movie together and met on the set for the 1st time!

The One and Only , Genuine , Original Family Band.......2006-10-31

Get this while Disney still has it in print! So much fun! First movie with Golde Hawne and Ken Russell together! Leslie Anne Warren and John Davidson's second! Skip over the narrative ... just watch the movie! It speaks for itself.

No doubt about it, Death Race 2000 is one of the greatest B-movies ever made. A crown jewel in the career of B-movie king Roger Corman, it's a sublime example of exploitative filmmaking from a time when Corman's low-budget quickies were about to be swept aside by the blockbuster success of Jaws and Star Wars, and all of its outrageous ingredients combined to create a schlock-movie masterpiece. Liberally infused with director Paul Bartel's macabre sense of humor, Corman's mandatory formula for success (R-rated violence and nudity, served up at least once every 15 minutes) is zanily applied to a near-future scenario (similar to Rollerball, also released in 1975) in which a fascist empire appeases its oppressed citizens with "Death Race 2000," an automotive spectacle in which five costumed racers drive wacky race cars cross-country from New York to "New Los Angeles," scoring points with hit-and-run killings awarded on a sliding scale, with highest points for hitting children and the elderly! In addition to "Calamity Jane" (played by former Andy Warhol acolyte Mary Woronov), "Matilda the Hun" (Roberta Collins), and "Nero the Hero" (Martin Kove), the hottest contestants are "Machine Gun" Joe Viturbo (Sylvester Stallone, on the verge of Rocky stardom) and the reigning champion "Frankenstein" (David Carradine), whose "Death Race" prowess has reached near-mythic proportions.

Filmed for $300,000 on desert-road and freeway locations throughout California's San Fernando Valley, Death Race 2000 packs more entertainment into 78 minutes than most movies can muster in two hours or more. Although it originated as a serious short story by Ib Melchior (best known as the writer-director of The Angry Red Planet), Corman took a cue from Dr. Strangelove and gave the material a satirical spin, resulting in non-graphic road-kills that are more hilarious than horrific, especially with the play-by-play race commentary by legendary disc jockey "The Real Don Steele," whose priceless performance (along with Carradine's deadpan drollery) turns Death Race 2000 into a low-comedy classic. The deadly car bodies were designed by Dean Jeffries (who also customized the "Monkeemobile") and fitted onto Volkswagen chassis, and Bartel's ingenious use of a meager budget epitomized the Corman aesthetic, reaping impressive box-office profits on its way to becoming one of the most beloved cult classics of all time. --Jeff Shannon

Before he was Frank Leone, Marion Cobretti, Lincoln Hawk, or John Rambo Sly was..."Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo!.......2007-06-26

Its funny to think that people in 1975 thought life in 2000 would be so B. Apparently in 1975, blood of the future is red paint. Mowing down infants is a desireable action, and the national sport of choice would be the Death Race. In this enthralling sport portrayed in a true B classic, crushing someone's head under the wheel of your mid 70's american muscle car that looks nothing like a futuristic automobile is pretty much the zenith. Oh wait, these are all just aspects of the awful special effects in Death Race. How could we not love this film? Apparently Stallone followed his adult film up with this beaut. And, he delivered the goods in both. He gave us a halmark for a Sid the Elf Classic: terrible dialouge. Our favorite line from the Italian Stallion was:"I got two words for that Bull and..." You know where its going.

You should have driven through the boy scout camp! .......2007-06-23

A friend of mine at work [who has been making an ALARMING number of good movie and music recommendations lately] rather insisted that I watch this movie, and so, at a moment of filmic indecision [Rhinestone, starring Sylvester Stallone and Dolly Parton, was next on my list], I threw this one up there and it was speedily delivered to me.

This movie was made in 1975 and takes place in 2000, which is obviously delightful. When we see a long matte shot of Manhattan, it's hard to believe anyone thought that all that building and addition of elevated monorails would have taken place in just 25 years--but it's charming. The rest of the movie mostly takes place in the desert, but there are a few "futuristic" buildings [circa 1975] driven by every now and then. This made me think that surely some movie is coming up soon that will take place in a world transformed by global warming.

This was apparently taken from a serious sci-fi novel, but when Roger Corman [that's right] thought about the elements he thought it would work better as a comedy that gradually moves into more serious satiric elements. We are at the Transcontinental Road Race, which is sort of a futuristic Cannonball Run, where the participants gain points by killing pedestrians, with children and old people scoring the most points. The credits are these pencil drawings of cool cars that look like something that cool guy in your 1975 math class would draw on the inside of his denim notebook, then we meet our contestants as they are interviewed by reporters. One reporter is this overexcited gay-seeming dude with Elvis glasses and hair [futuristic!], an irritating nasal voice and long scarf around his neck. There's also Grace Pander, a Rona Barrett-style entertainment reporter who claims to be "a very dear friend" of all the celebrities she covers. There's also a droll guy who speaks like Howard Cosell. Naturally it's occurring to me that a great many people reading this may be too young to know who these people are. Oh dear.

The notable racers are Sylvester Stallone [still couldn't avoid him, I guess] two years before Rocky, as the gangster-styled Machine Gun Joe, who drives a car with two machine guns and a giant knife attached to the hood. And, as the gay reporter says: "Don't forget that swastika sweetheart, Matilda the Hun, with her Nazi navigator!" We also meet John Carradine as Frankenstein, who dresses like a mix of Batman and Darth Vader, and who claims to be stitched together by so many various body parts. There's a funny moment [I mean, among ALL the funny moments] when Grace Pander leans in and asks Frankenstein to "give me an exclusive," and then asks her question in front of all the other reporters. Also on hand is some Catherine Bach-type, apparently played by a former Warhol associate, who talks about the sexual satisfaction she gets from her navigator, some generic hunk smoking a cigar. Most of the other navigators are women, and it is explicitly presented that part of their responsibilities are in caring for the sexual needs of their drivers. Hey, it's Corman.

The President comes out to bless the proceedings--this is a federally-sponsored event--and hails a "glorious day of minority privilege." When I first heard this I thought he was referring to the way some people feel that minorities as we have come to think of them--blacks, gays, etc.,--are the recipient of "privileges" and special treatment, and I think this just comes from forgetting that this movie is 30 years old--and assuming that since it is ostensibly trashy it is politically located toward the right. Well, you know what they say about what happens when you assume.

So the racers go through Lincoln Tunnel and in seemingly five minutes are on this country mountain dirt road that looks remarkably like Northern California. I guess the environment really has changed. Then we divert to a group of rebels who feel that the race is a disgrace to the nation, and are led by a woman I believe is loosely patterned after Emma Goldman.

SPOILERS > > >

So then Frankenstein takes off his mask and we discover that he's really NOT hideously disfigured underneath. I just love the way that rolls off the tongue: Hideously Disfigured. Then Stallone machetes a guy's balls off with his car [turns out the guy, like everyone else here, bleeds fire engine red paint]. Then we see a bunch of old people lined up in the middle of the road, smiling, and we learn that this is "euthanasia day." Which is effectively disturbing. But Frankenstein avoids the elderly and diverts to hit what appears to be a line of nurses walking in a row, evenly spaced apart. I laughed heartily at a line about "You should have taken the road I told you about, through the boy scout camp!" Then at night all the drivers, who have apparently spread themselves out miles away from each other across the country, come back to one hotel to be rubbed down and interviewed. Is this not SO like The Cannonball Run?

That night Frankenstein goes over and says nothing to Stallone's navigator, but it looks like he said something, and Stallone comes and really punches her hard. Then Frankenstein's navigator, whose name is Sarah or Emma or something I can't remember now, offers her body to him and they get it on. Then the Frankenstein's "biggest fan" corners him in the hall downstairs... and tomorrow they're all back on the road again. We see that the big fan from the night before is outfitted in a white dress, standing in the middle of the road, eager to be killed by her idol. He obliges.

It goes on, but by now the novelty is starting to wear off a little bit. We start getting more resistance from the, well, resistance, which is immediately and hilariously blamed on the French. After not too long we have one of my favorite lines, just for it's simple directness: "Stop the car!" "I can't... we're in a race!" I'm not going to tell you the ending, although the phrase "grenade hand" does figure into it, and in the end Frankenstein becomes "Mister President Frankenstein." The guy at work who recommended this to me would reminisce about it, say "Mister President Frankenstein" to himself, and then just giggle.

< < < SPOILERS END

It sure is something. It's charming because it is SO absolutely adolescent, so entirely created to appeal to the base instincts of the 14-year-old boy in all of us, with the cool cars and the hot chicks and the violence and the guys getting it in the nuts... and most of all, the whole naughty concept of running over pedestrians for points. But through it all the movie remains more cheeky than offensive, mostly because the violence here is so cartoony. In most cases we don't actually SEE the car hit the person, we just see the car driving fast and then the person flipping up into the air. The blood is so red and fake-looking it's like something out of a small town Halloween haunted house. So it's mischievous and somewhat evil but in the most harmless and fun way.

But there's more than just cool fun in mind, because of the whole political satire aspects of it. Okay, it's really lame political satire [the government sponsors this race to keep the people placated, not too far away from the message of Rollerball], but there's something interesting about the way this movie starts out by generating viewer excitement with the whole idea of running over pedestrians, then widens so we see that this whole race is part of a larger government plan that involves sacrificing the country's citizens... it's vague and silly, but hey, they didn't have to add that element at all.

Death Race 2000 is a film where a cross country race in which points are gathered by running over pedesterians on the road. It is a very dark and very sick, yet very funny at the same time. I especially like a pre Rocky Sylvester Stallone as one of the contestants who probably enjoys the race too much. This movie goes to show that you do not have to spend a lot of money to make an entertaining film.

Description

"Low budget films allow one to experiment, to take chances with a zany idea like DEATH RACE 2000. Paul Bartel had the type of black humor that was required to direct this cross-country racing mayhem; while Chuck Griffith handled 2nd unit direction for the action sequences, featuring futuristic fast cars created by an award-winning designer. To compete with David Carradine's dark hero, I cast Sylvester Stallone as the heavy, whom I had first noticed with his brilliant performance in THE LORDS OF FLATBUSH. This combination was particularly effective, and DEATH RACE 2000 remains one of my most successful films of all time." -- Roger Corman~~In the year 2000, hit and run has become the national sport. It's a no-holds barred cross-country race, in which the aim is to kill off not only your opponents, but as many pedestrians as possible. David Carradine takes on Sylvester Stallone in this classic adrenaline thriller that will make you look both ways twice before you cross.~

Great family fun.......2006-06-29

We just loved this DVD! We have childen from 5 to 15 and they all thought it was great. At first the older ones thought they wouldn't like a "puppet show," as they put it, but once it started they laughed until the end. We adults enjoyed it as well. The comedy is quick and sharp-witted in a way that everyone can relate to, but it doesn't go to the gutter to get there. Great stuff!

Low Budget, Big Laughs.......2006-06-26

I cannot disagree with the previous review more.
This is a funny DVD collection that is very good.
I will admit, the production values are absent. This is definitely a low budget set. But that never stopped the price line sock puppet or Triumph the dog puppet. And I gotta say, this is so much more funny than those. These episodes are good clean fun. ( aside from one funny "gas" joke. )
The main character is as loveable as Ziggy, Charlie Brown, or Fozzie Bear.
The comedy is quick and smart and the episodes have some wonderful lessons in life.
If you are a snob that is only looking for something that came off the commercial rack than you will not like this. But if you are looking for something to make you laugh and characters you will enjoy, than this is for you.

surprisingly enjoyable.......2006-05-30

I normally hate anything independently produced. I know that sounds bad, but what can I say. I'm a commercial junkie. I friend of mine purchased this from another site and made me watch it.
I laughed my **s off! whoever wrote for this show should be in Hollywood making big budget comedies. The wit was smart and quick.
I have never laughed at puppets before. But these guys make you quickly forget you are watching a puppet. The characters are so well played you just get wrapped up in the fun.

Funny stuff.......2006-05-30

When it comes to laughter and silliness, there's no arguing over the Erving Freeman show. This slapstick puppet comedy definitely delivers!
From haunted kitchens to angry mimes, Erving Freeman continually battle's life's challenges and faces his greatest fears and insecurities.
Erving is joined by a variety of colorful puppet characters including his big brother roommate Norville Howard; the guy with the advice Erving never takes.
If there is trouble, Erving will find it!
If there's a wrong way, Erving will take it!
If there is a laugh to provide,
The Erving Freeman Show will supply it!

Volume I includes the first four episodes of this hilarious comedy series plus a bonus disc packed with extras including bloopers and deleted scenes!

This Dvd is a good tool for you to use to warm up a audience before a puppet show. Use in a classroom setting to teach younger students how to use puppets in a visual setting and get them interested in puppetry. It also can be used with adults learning film techniques and give them ideas to film with there own puppets.
Regardless of how you view the " The Erving Freeman Show Volume #1 or volume #2. You will fall out laughing. It is clean entertainment and suitable for children and family viewing. Pick up a copy today and enjoy great puppet skits that are used in both videos.
I highly recommend this video for all. I have both volumes 1 & 2 and use it quite often.

This interesting feature is set in a strange future.

He discovers various codes, messages, cryptograms, and odd elements as he goes to solve this intriguing story.
