Couple more Japanese films: Red Lion / Akage (1969) 'Gonzo (Toshiro Mifune), a member of the Imperial Restoration Force, is being asked by the emperor to deliver official news to his home village of a New World Order. Wanting to pose as a military officer, he dons the Red Lion Mane of Office.

Upon his return, his attempt to tell the village about a brand-new tax cut is quashed when the townfolk mistakenly assumes that he is there to rescue them from corrupt government officials. He learns that an evil magistrate has been swindling them for years. Now, he has to help the village, ward off Shogunate fanatics, along with the fact that he can't read his own proclamations.' Virgin Breaker Yuki (1976) (trigger warnings for rape/torture) 'This film depicts prostitutes and anarchists in Kyoto just after the Peace Preservation Law was passed in 1925.'

I rented and watched KILLING ME SOFTLY on DVD and giggled throughout the movie. Ontrack easy recovery professional 100 56 crack serial. It's so unintentionally funny, and silly and stupid and pointless, that I'm sure people in the near future will look back at this as camp. The film stars Heather Graham and Joseph Fiennes.

Quote: The Killing Floor is about an illiterate black sharecropper, Frank Custer, and his journey from the rural south to Chicago stockyards. The year is 1917 and the first World War is in full swing, leaving good paying jobs (21 cents an hour) for the men left behind, mostly immigrants and southern blacks. The film portrays the pioneering attempt of Custer and other stockyard workers to bring together other blacks, Poles, Lithuanian, Irish and German workers to form an interracial union in the face of growing racial conflict in Chicago, the culmination of which eventually led to the Chicago Race Riot of 1919. The Killing Floor is based on actual characters and event and the tension expressed one of the great themes of American history: the conflict between class and race. It is explored with dignity, style and compassion. These were courageous men now remembered and revered, for it was not until the 1930’s that the vision of a strong interracial union was realized.

A strong script and performances making The Killing Floor an honorable, rich and revealing film. Wrote: I kind of want to add Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves to the list. Would anyone object to that? You know, the 1950s British TV show, The Adventures of Robin Hood (starring Richard Greene), was largely written by exiled US writers who were blacklisted during the McCarthy witch-hunts. Apparently, some of the scripts reflected their leftism. I loved it as a kid but it's probably all very dated and dead cheesy now.

Still, if you'd care to investigate, I think the entire series can be found on YouTube. Uncle Wikipedia wrote: Blacklisted writers The Adventures of Robin Hood was produced by Hannah Weinstein, who had left-wing political views. Weinstein hired many blacklisted American writers to script episodes of the series: these included Ring Lardner Jr., Waldo Salt, Robert Lees, and Adrian Scott. Howard Koch, who was also blacklisted, served for a while as the series' script editor. The blacklisted writers were credited under pseudonyms, to avoid the attention of studio executives.[9] (The sponsored prints of the first five episodes of series one, screened by CBS in the US on its first run, had no writer credits on their end title sequences, writers were only credited on sponsored prints from episode 6 onward, only later non-sponsored US re-run prints of series one have writer credits for these episodes, some of which differ from writer credits on UK prints. As an example, Lawrence McClellan is credited as writer of 'The Coming of Robin Hood' on US prints, for the UK the pseudonym used is Eric Heath.)[10] After the blacklist collapsed, Lardner said that the series' format allowed him 'plenty of opportunities to comment on issues and institutions in Eisenhower-era America;' presumably A Tuck in Time was such an episode, in which a twin of Friar Tuck arrives boasting of his willingness to sell a weapon that could destroy the world. In addition to the redistributive themes of a hero who robs from the rich and gives to the poor, many episodes in the programme's first two seasons included the threat that Robin and his band would be betrayed to the authorities by friends or loved ones, much as the blacklisted writers had been.[9] But the half-hour length episodes and broad-target market precluded any political criticism that went beyond the generalities of 19th century Robin Hood revival books.
