KING: A FILMED RECORD... MONTGOMERY TO MEMPHIS


The Madison in Albany (still hanging in there) screened the Martin Luther King doc KING: A FILMED RECORD... MONTGOMERY TO MEMPHIS (1970) in March, 1970. Co-directed by Sidney Lumet and Joseph L. Mankiewicz, Pacific Arts released it on VHS, but it doesn't look like a DVD has happened yet.

ALL THE LOVIN' KINFOLK, etc.


Raleigh's great Center Drive-in screened this all-nighter back in January, 1971. ALL THE LOVIN' KINFOLK (1970) was a John Hayes nudie with Uschi Digard; it appears to have had a VHS release, but no DVD yet. THE MERCENARY was the US title for Sergio Corbucci's western Il Mercenario (1968), with Franco Nero and Jack Palance; on DVD as A PROFESSIONAL GUN. THE RAMRODDER (1969) was a Dave Friedman-produced nudie western with Kathy Williams and Marsha Jordan (and infamously, Manson family member Bobby Beausoleil). Friedman also backed THAR SHE BLOWS (1969), with Shari Mann.
