YOU WILL FIND: Reactions and commentary on movies I have seen, including "spoiler" references (because otherwise it wouldn't be much more than "mm, ug, liked it" or "argh, didn't like it") YOU WILL NOT FIND: Detail by detail summaries (because it's not the present purpose of this blog) READ. COMMENT. ENJOY. THANKS FOR VISITING.

"20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" (1954)
Slow story, but part of that is because a significant part of the story is philosophical--the idea that if mankind just had the right location, the right structure, right set up, could just start over, then peace could be had or a perfect society. However, mankind is sinful, so such could never happen, not even with the right set-up. I've not ever read the book, so I can't speak to the adaptation. Walt Disney. Decent under water color photography. Kirk Douglas. Decent movie.
