Crashing the Movies (recorded off of Turner Classic Movies). [Category: Hollywood]

Newsreel clips are shown of all the weird and wacky stunts 30s people performed to get the newsreel cameras focused on them. This is lots of fun, as a lot of the stunts really are quite weird and wacky. You haven't lived until you've seen the Human Loop-de-Loop. This, and most of the other stunts, leaves you with questions about the sanity of somebody who would think up such a thing. The narration, which could have been lame, is genuinely funny.

Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ****. Weirdness: ****. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ****.
