B-MOVIE OF THE MONTH - GULAG (TV 1985)

This month B-Movie Gazette dives into the prison genre and who doesn't like a good prison flick? Gulag is an extremely well-produced TV movie originally made for HBO before wandering out to obscurity-land. David Keith is in top form as a sportscaster and while covering an event in Moscow is framed by the KGB. Unable to prove his innocence a prison escape is now inevitable, just how will he do it? Malcolm McDowell co-stars, this is a good one folks! 2.75 stars/2.75

REVIEW OF PTS 3 & 4 OF "ALLEN VS FARROW" - FINAL OUTCOME OF THIS WAS DECIDED BY FILMMAKERS IN FIRST FIVE MINUTES OF PT 1

 

Which one is telling the truth?

Mia Farrow and daughter Dylan have basically succeeded in trashing a legend and his art with it's subsequent legacy. While he's an old man in his eighties I might add and over an incident, one incident that happened almost thirty years ago and was given all due process at that time - good, bad or otherwise. 

Whatever did happen up in the infamous attic that day, we will probably never really know but we do know what happened afterwards. He kept making movies, stayed with the same woman for just as many years and never was accused or as far as we know even stepped one foot in the horrid waters we know as pedophilia. So he either is guilty and quickly learned his lesson or it's the duck it walks like - a purposeful smear job. Either way he is not deserving of the outcome. 

Do your research on these filmmakers and you'll see they've conducted reality TV like pressure interview methods in their previous films. It's like walking into Hells Kitchen with Gordon Ramsay - Woody never stood a chance. It's not illegal to sleep with everyone you ever made a picture with nor is it to be into legally of age women way younger than you on a regular basis. Not yet at least.

Final rating on series - none.
