What a remarkable title for a film.
Spoilers galore follow. Stop reading if you ever plan on seeing it.
The story is post-apocalyptic. The film, made in Czechoslovakia about 1967, advances us 15 to 20 years after a day that the last newspaper reported there was unrest in the Middle East (I forget the exact [...]

In which I beg for ideas on how to maximize our kitchen counter room

Tonight I’d rather comment on a not-good movie than a good one.
“Lot in Sodom” by James Sibley Watson and Melville Webber is that not-so-good movie. Vintage 1933. It was the bonus film on the Nazimova “Salome” DVD.
I read that Watson and Webber were supposed to have done a fine job with “The Fall [...]
