Review of Mister Buddwing (1966) by Jay N — 06 Apr 2011

Damn, this movie was great! It had Rockford in black and white, looking all hot, Angela Lansbury acting like a slut, Jean Simmons trying to outdo her as slut of the year, and a cab driver who gets the drive of his life.

Both hilarious and sad. The ending was a little bit of a letdown, but whatever. It was pretty unique for a 1966 film. Nice jazzy soundtrack, photography. Caught my attention right away on TCM, so sad that it isn't on DVD.

I mean, a man with amnesia that names himself after the combo of a beer truck and an airplane - how can you not make that available to the masses? There's some video on TCM online, and maybe they have it elsewhere online.
