Title: VIBRANT COLORS
Review: The photography for this 1960 (?!) tv show is fantastic----almost dayglow colors for the sets and costumes. The photography is certainly the best thing about this disc.Way back then one hour shows were actually 50 minutes long, not the 45 or less minutes now days, so for one disc and two episodes it's akin to a full lenth movie. For a kids' show, the sets are cheap, but that's part of its charm.The Oz episode is the best of the two, for the obvious reason that Temple lost out to Garland in the movie version, though here she's playing a different role. And Arthur Treacher is in this episode too, after he and Temple were in a John Ford (!) movie together. Arthur Treacher, of his fish and chips fast food chain, and Merv Griffin's talk show sidekick.It's probably only worthwhile for a curio, Shirley Temple as an adult with some cleavage, and an nbc 1960 (?) show in peacock color, but I paid less than 25 cents for my copy, so, for that price you can't go wrong.
Is the review positive or negative?
