Steineded How sad is this?

Dotbankey A lot of fun.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Michael_Elliott Mackinac Island (1944) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Another pleasant entry in MGM's TravelTalks series starts off on Lake Michigan where we view the coastline of Chicago. James A. FitzPatrick then takes a cruise to Mackinac Island where we learn about its history from the original Indians who lived there to how the French took control of it. We see various items including the various flowers that grow there before ending our trip at the Grand Hotel, which was originally owned by Chauncey Depew. As expected, the Technicolor is certainly the highlight of this short and it was a lot of fun briefly seeing Chicago even if the series had several visits there. On the island we get the typical stories but they're all told quite well by FitzPatrick and no one can dispute the scenery.
