A Clock Work Blue
''A Clock Work Blue'' is a 1972 American sexploitation comedy film directed by Eric Jeffrey Haims. It stars Joe E. Tata as Homer, a clumsy researcher who acquires a watch that allows him to travel through time. Cast Release and legal issues ''A Clock Work Blue'' opened in 1972 at the Cinestage Theatre on Dearborn Street in Chicago, Illinois, six days after the film ''A Clockwork Orange'' had completed an 18-week run at the nearby Michael Todd Theatre. This, combined with ''A Clock Work Blue''s title and the fact that some of its advertising had made references to ''A Clockwork Orange'' (such as that the former film "makes ''Orange'' blush") resulted in legal action from Warner Bros., the distributor of ''A Clockwork Orange''. The case resulted in Warner Bros. winning a consent order which declared that ''A Clock Work Blue'' was not to be screened under that title in any other theater in Cook County, Illinois. Critical reception Brian Orndorf of Blu-ray.com called the film ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Double Feature
The double feature is a motion picture industry phenomenon in which theatres would exhibit two films for the price of one, supplanting an earlier format in which one feature film and various short subject reels would be shown. Opera use Opera houses staged two operas together for the sake of providing long performance for the audience. This was related to one-act or two-act short operas that were otherwise commercially hard to stage alone. A prominent example is the double-bill of ''Pagliacci'' with ''Cavalleria rusticana'' first staged on 22 December 1893 by the Metropolitan Opera, Met. The two operas have since been frequently performed as a double-bill, a pairing referred to in the operatic world colloquially as "Cav and Pag". Origin and format The double feature originated in the later 1930s. Though the dominant presentation model, consisting of all or some of the following, continued well into the 1940s: * One or more live acts * An animated cartoon Short film, short subject ...
