Famous Pictures Company
Приєднався 10 жов 2006
Famous Pictures began its operations in the early 20th century by founder Maxwell DeMille.
DeMille's success began when he signed a young actress named Trixie Millette. She was soon known as "Everyone's Sweetheart." After several mergers, management shuffles, and a bankruptcy, the newly reorganized Famous Pictures Company emerged in 1935. In the 1930s and '40s, Famous Pictures Company was known for its big stars: Martin Crosby, Stubby Hope, Danielle Lamour, Marco Milland, Barbara Dietrich, Herman Chevalier, and the Mayhem Brothers.
Famous Pictures debuted its wide-screen Wonder-Vision in 1954 to compete with Fox's CinemaScope and Paramount's Vista-Vision. The 1950s were good to Famous Pictures. Popular stars and well-known directors made the Famous Pictures name familiar to moviegoers.
The studio continues today with a tradition of quality motion picture entertainment plus televised programs in association with the Dumont Network's Electronic Television System.

LOBSTER MAN FROM MARS HD (1989)
Lobster Man from Mars had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival. It screened for a short time in theaters and then on cable TV. Since then it's been available on DVD. Now for the first time, you can watch the full movie in HD on UA-cam!
About the movie:
Movie mogul J.P. Shelldrake discovers he's in desperate need of a tax write-off to keep the Internal Revenue Service off his back. Young writer, producer, and director Stevie Horowitz walks into Sheldrake's office with his homemade space masterpiece "Lobster Man From Mars." What follows is one of the most bizarre and funny film within-a-film send-ups: Mars suffers from a severe air leakage, and the King of Mars sends the dreaded Lobster Man to Earth to steal its air. The Lobster Man's plot is foiled by a mad scientist, an army colonel, and a young and innocent couple. Shelldrake buys the movie but gets more than he bargained for.
Don't miss this rare chance to watch a cult classic from 1989!

The Los Angeles and State theatres had there pipe organs until a person built his monument to conspicuous consumption in Sylmar.
Merry Christmas 🎅
Que preciosa música ❤ es oro todo esto❤
Nice soundtrack.
I really enjoyed that. At first I thought I would not be able to sit through a feature length film with no dialogue. I was very wrong. It was interesting and wonderful. True to the era and the costumes were fantastic. ell done to everyone involved.
Thanks so much for releasing it on UA-cam! Xoxo very happy!
I’ve been wanting to see this ever since I heard of it. Been a long time!
A great work of art by Alex Monty Canawati
Wow
I need this guy at my future wedding
34:00 Albert Alva kills it on his sax solo on "Flying Home"! Man, that's great stuff! That definitely wakes the club up.
The drummer doesn't even get a name check...
Stout.
I believe in Jesus
Fabulous place! <3
Sorry, I like J. Stout. He's a wonderful player. But during the first pieces, the dancers seem to have more verve than the other musicians, who play as if they had taken a bucketful of sleeping pills.
Interesting! If you note Jonathan Stout actually joins the group at about 15.50. His rythm guitar immediately gives the sound a lift.
If I had it my way, I'd have a whole evening of nothing but congas!
So much fun!
Disculpa que tipo de musica es esta??
It's called swing
swing jazz
Gracias!!
10:20 Home in Pasadena, brings smiles & toe tappin everytime...where honeybees hum melodies & orange trees scent the breeze...
Just too grand. Love the performances. BTW where can I obtain the uke chords & lyrics to "Who, That's You." or whatever its title is. Thank you!
I think it fair to say that the people back then were a greater generation. As a society, we've gone into decline. A wonderful piece of zeitgeist.
You are correct but no disrespect to Forbidden Planet.
Cool...simply cool.
Great to see Shirley Jones out and about~
very nice!
Wrong guitar for the mood, Fred. Acoustic arch top with a floating neck pickup would have more wood in the sound; or a Selmer, for sure. Beautifully played, nonetheless.
I have Janet's first two albums but have never seen her live. She's adorable and what talent, all. Thanks for uploading this.
She is fabulous!
Amazing! Just amazing! Thank you for the upload! I'm watching all your videos! A hug from Brazil!
Nice.. A Huell Howser I've haven't seen. Its great to see more undiscovered episodes. Thanx
These guys are great. Any way you could list the tunes tagged to the time in the video?
I had an amazing night . I celebrated my 10 year wedding anniversary here on this night . Thank you so much for posting this amazing video
I love hearing Kym Hoy aka Kasumi Goto from Mass Effect 2 & 3....she's got a great voice and she can really sing, too! Great job! :)
Next time in LA I'm coming to the Cicada Club. I hope Tim is there. Your band is awesome! I saw you a year ago at Alpine Village and wish I lived in LA so I could hear your band all the time. Keep swinging!
did richard halpern write the song "hollywood cavalcade"?
Christine Nelson is a great talent!
Do love this orchestra and Maxwell DeMille too. L
Not bad stuff!
soo sad... Huell was AMAZING! Sad L.A. TIMES Scared the entire SoCal.., FALSE FLAG
Now this is something else! Very talented musicians, very stylish playing here!
Christine Nelson is fantastic!
very nice Tim...i dig.
You can see this on Netflicks -episode 133
Awesome! Whispering is my favorite tune to play on the old Wurlitzer electrostatic reed organ. UA-cam is waking up a new generation listeners and people like pax41 & others upload so many great 78's from their collections. The splash cymbal lives! I recommend anyone out there that wants to really have a good time for little to no money, find yourself an old electronic theater organ ( ETO). The Conn theater organs are orchestral and offer so much great sound for the earlier music like this .
Another UA-cam gold nugget.
George your wrong the 50's had the best sci-fi War of the Worlds.The Day the Earth Stood Still.When Worlds Collide,Destination Moon just to name a few. Today it's just all obvious CGI with heaps of explosions and no story or substance. Thank God for Blu Ray I can enjoy these old classics all over again.
This was a special night!
Great stuff!
My all time favorite sci-fi movie when I was growing as kid - classic!
