This is easily the worst Abbott and Costello movie I've seen. It's basically Abbott and Costello with pirates and Charles Laughton as Captain Kidd. What I liked about this movie was that Fran Warren, a wonderful singer from the 40's and 50's is in it. I didn't know she was in this movie before I watched it. She sings a few numbers here and is gorgeous. So it was a worth a watch in that regard.

The Man who loved Cat Dancing
Lately, I've been getting into westerns. My sister got this from the library and I have to admit that I was reluctant to watch it. I'm indifferent to Burt Reynolds. I don't dislike him though. However, this movie surprised me. Sarah Miles plays a woman who witnesses a robbery. She is held captive by Burt Reynolds and his gang. Over time she falls in love with Burt Reynolds. Her husband George Hamilton is on the trail looking for her. What I liked about the movie was the characterization. The characters have many flaws. The ending surprised me. Some unpredictable things happen that you didn't expect of the characters. I liked Sarah Miles. I need to watch Ryan's Daughter some time.
