ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour Today (342)
Thank you for joining us today
Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with the Daffy Duck Looney Tunes cartoon, the 1952 The Super Snooper, directed by Robert McKimson.
The shapely lady duck here may well have helped inspire future animated vamp Jessica Rabbit in 1988's Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Before the start of our feature presentation, the staff of The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour would like to share with you these trailers of movies we like to see, directed by Quentin Tarrantino.
I'm hoping Quentin isn't really serious about retiring after his next movie.
We've picked another entry from the excellent reference book, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die by Steven Jay Schneider. Today's film is the 1964 Disney musical comedy, Mary Poppins , directed by Robert Stevenson, and starring Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson, and Glynis Johns. The film is based on the series of novels written by PL Travers. Walt Disney worked on and off for over 20 years to secure the rights to the story. Travers was reluctant to have a film made of her story because she did not believe a film version of her books would do justice to her creation. The film opened to both critical acclaim and commercial success. It became the highest-grossing film of 1964 and, at the time of its release, was Disney's highest-grossing film ever.
Mary Poppins was a triumph at the 1965 Oscars, winning five awards, including the Best Actress Award for Julie Andrews, in her film acting debut. The film was nominated for a total of 13 awards, making it the highest number of nominations for any Disney film. The music by the Sherman brothers was a career highlight for the duo, with songs such as Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and A Spoonful of Sugar entering popular culture as classics. The unique combination of live action and animation was a stunning effect in 1964, though Travers is said to have despised it. So please join us here at The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour and sit back, get comfortable and enjoy turning back the clock by watching, Mary Poppins.
Walt Disney cast Julie Andrews for the lead after seeing her in Camelot on Broadway. When she mentioned she was pregnant, he offered to wait until she had her baby to start filming and offered her then-husband, Tony Walton, the job of designing costumes and some sets for this movie. Disney also gave the couple a personally escorted tour of Disneyland and the studio to help them make up their minds. Disney liked Andrews in Camelot so much that after he saw her performance he had the animators of One Hundred and One Dalmatians draw the character of Anita to resemble her.

ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour Today (341)
Thank you for joining us today
Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with the Daffy Duck/Bugs Bunny Looney Tunes cartoon, the 1952 Rabbit Seasoning, directed by Chuck Jones. The short is widely considered among Jones' best and most important film.
Rabbit Seasoning is the sequel to Rabbit Fire, and the second entry in the "Hunter's trilogy" directed by Jones and written by Michael Maltese (the only major difference in format between Rabbit Fire and Rabbit Seasoning is that the former takes place during the springtime, while the latter takes place in autumn. The third cartoon in the set, Duck! Rabbit, Duck!, takes place in the winter.)
Before the start of our feature presentation, given the San Gennaro Festival is just weeks away, staff of The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour would like to share with you this funny video reviewing the feast.
Matteo Lane is becoming my favorite new comedian.
We've picked another entry from the excellent reference book, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die by Steven Jay Schneider. Today's film is the 1964 musical comedy, A Hard Day's Night , directed by Richard Lester, and starring the Beatles - John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, Wilfrid Brambell, Norman Rossington, and John Junkin.. The film was the film debut of The Beatles, and is considered one of the greatest rock-and-roll comedy adventures ever. By 1964, it seemed impossible for the Fab Four to acquire greater fame and love but A Hard Day’s Night did just that. Two years before the films release, The Beatles had their first hit with Love Me Do and by the time of the film’s release, they were reaping the rewards of their first three massively successful albums and had triumphantly returned from their now historical world tour. Alun Owen’s screenplay and Richard Lester’s direction combines the boys’ natural Liverpudlian repartee with lashings of slapstick and surreal comedy, creating something downright bizarre and even magical. So please join us here at The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour and sit back, get comfortable and enjoy turning back the clock by watching, A Hard Day’s Night.
United Artists executives didn't really care about the movie itself, they were mainly interested in exploiting a legal loophole which would allow them to distribute the lucrative soundtrack album. In fact, they fully expected to lose money on the movie. With a final cost of about $500,000 and a box-office take of about $8 million in the first week, this movie is amongst the most profitable (percentage-wise) movies of all time.

Thank you for joining us today
Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with another Daffy Duck/Porky Pig Merrie Melodies cartoon, the 1952 Cracked Quack, directed by Friz Freleng.
The base the stuffed duck is mounted on says " Black Duck" with the scientific name Ilex opaca , which is actually the scientific name for the American Holly plant. The scientific name for the American black duck is Anas rubripes.
Before the start of our feature presentation, the staff of The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour would like to share with you this wonderful video in which Alfred Hitchcock is the villain of his own films.
Fabrice Mathieu used special effects and clips from 30 films to create this excellent short film.
We've picked another entry from the excellent reference book, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die by Steven Jay Schneider. Today's film is the 1964 Brazilian drama, Black God, White Devil (Deus e o Diabo na Terra do Sol), directed by Glauber Rocha, and starring Othon Bastos, MaurÃcio do Valle, Yoná Magalhães, and Geraldo Del Rey. The film belongs to the Cinema Novo movement, addressing the socio-political problems of 1960s Brazil. The highly symbolic plot perfectly blends with a soundtrack, especially Heitor Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas Brasileiras. Stylized performances, handheld camera shots, elliptical editing, and nonsynchronous sound disrupt traditional viewing habits, but lead to the haunting finale. The film is still powerful and theological and sociopolitical allegories resonate just as much today as it did in 1964. So please join us here at The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour and sit back, get comfortable and enjoy watching this very original work, Black God, White Devil.
In the scene where we see Manuel (Geraldo Del Rey) carrying a huge stone over his head while climbing Monte Santo on his knees, Del Rey insisted on carrying a real stone that weighted over 20 kilos - something that really worried director Glauber Rocha. After the shooting, Del Rey had to take 2 days off, as he wasn't in condition to show up.

Thank you for joining us today
Before our feature presentation, ACME would like to start the evening with another Daffy Duck/Porky Pig Looney Tunes cartoon, the 1952 Thumb Fun, directed by Robert McKimson.
Daffy's artistic talents would also be used by fellow cast member Will E. Coyote.
Before the start of our feature presentation, the staff of The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour would like to know - Of all the gin joints in all the world, why did you continue to show up at this one?
Always a great watch - an interesting documentary about Casablanca.
We've picked another entry from the excellent reference book, 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die by Steven Jay Schneider. Today's film is the 1964 movie, Dr Strangelove, (or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb), directed by Stanley Kubrick, and starring Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens, and Tracy Reed. Dr. Strangelove is often considered a comedy and the film is often considered one of the best comedies ever made. Peter Sellers was asked to play four characters in the film - Group captain Lionel Mandrake, President Merkin Muffley, Dr. Strangelove, and Major T. J. "King" Kong. Sellers felt he could not correctly do the Texas accent of the Major.
The character of Dr Strangelove is an amalgamation of RAND Corporation strategist Herman Kahn, rocket scientist Wernher von Braun (a central figure in Nazi Germany's rocket development program recruited to the US after the war), and Edward Teller, the "father of the hydrogen bomb". Rumors claimed that the character was based on Henry Kissinger, but Kubrick and Sellers denied this - you be the judge. So please join us here at The ACME Eagle Hand Soap Radio Hour and sit back, get comfortable and enjoy watching this classic work, Dr. Strangelove (or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb)
The scene where Gen. Turgidson trips and falls in the War Room, and then gets back up and resumes talking as if nothing happened, really was an accident. Stanley Kubrick mistakenly thought that it was George C. Scott really in character, so he left it in the film.
