Being 74 years old and raising in the San Fernando Valley I was exposed to a lot of Westerns and Army Movies in my childhood I was able to speak to your Grandparents, mostly with your Grandfather, he was an Extremely Special Kind of Person and he would always remember my name which kind of Surprised me. I loved talking to him about Fire and Ice which I have on VHS and DVD and has always been a Favorite of mine. Actually one of my younger Brothers worked for Nickelodeon which he has retired from but still illustrates children books. I have hand drawn pictures that he did with the influence of your Grandfather. The Inspiration that your Grandfather has passed on has brought lasting impact which will be felt for a long time. Thank You for giving me the opportunity to express myself.
That is generous of you to share your grandfathers film favorites and his perceptions around them. The creative soul is so aware of the works of other creative elements that it impacts like a bolt of lightning. Like you mentioned, we become duty bound to formulate our own creative contributions. Really awesome that I chanced upon this channel. I enjoy learning about the lives of real artists, their struggles, etc. Thanks so much.
10. From Russia with Love 9. On The Water Front 8. 7th Voyage of Sinbad 7. Abbot and Costello meet Frankenstein (1948) 6. Wuthering Heights 5. Pinnochio (1940) 4. Wizard of Oz (1939) 3. Fantasia (1940) 2. Kingkong (1933) 1. Night of the Hunter (1955)
I wonder if Mr. Frazetta found inspiration in Segio Leone's films, Zoltan Korda's Thief of Bagdad and Jungle Book, and movie serials like those of Flash Gordon?
I'm amazed at the broad reach and tremendous influence of Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein. It's had a huge impact on a lot of really brilliant people. It absolutely flipped Jerry Garcia's switch, to just name one.
Frank frazetta was the first image in art I saw and still inspired me tru the years , i can't find the words , simply magic , thanks God i discover frank frazetta beautiful art 14:44
It's odd to see how little the "Night of the Hunter" trailer does to convey the visual brilliance of the movie. At the same time, it's preferable that it doesn't spoiler every great moment, like modern trailers usually do. I had seen the movie for the first time in the 90s and I remember how inconceivable it seemed to me that this was filmed in the 50s. The creative ideas and expressiveness seemed decades ahead. Impactful and memorable like few other movies.
That's Deep.. i just had the chance to see the film after all the years of hearing about it...& i can.Faithfully say it really is an Amazing Visual film!..especially for the time it was created! & I can see why it had such an impact on so many ...even the Late Great Frank Frazetta himself!..well said & couldn't agree more 👏🏽
@@knowgo411 Thanks for saying so! It would be nice to see such expressiveness a little more often in contemporary movies. I tried thinking of other movies that might have done something similar, but not a lot came to mind. Might have to do some research there.
@Kijinn U welcome..& ur right I can't think of any movies that was visually poetic as that film is..But there is a Twilight zone episode that is pretty remarkable in the same regards as far visual storytelling! It has No dialog throughout the whole 25minutes ..but the visuals & music in it tells the story Beautifully!..(I can't think of name of the episode..but if I do.. I'll reply back here with the title)
@@knowgo411 Might it have been "The Invaders" from 1961? Otherwise Google points to "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge", supposedly the only other episode without dialog, and it was only shown on TV twice, due to licensing issues. I guess both seem to be worth checking out. Thanks for the heads up! I'll try to get back here if I ever find anything else like NotH.
@Kijinn Yes! " An occurrence at owl creek Bridge" that's it!! Very clever to Google that!👍🏼💯 Def check that out! & let me know ur thoughts on it..I almost 4got about "the invaders" one that's a good one (as most All TZ episodes were back then)..But "An Occurrenceat owl creekBridge is really something more unique!!!.

Great job on this! I enjoyed it enormously.
Frazetta was the greatest. If i may say, you could be straight out of one of his paintings.
He certainly was. And thank youuu. *Blushing*
@@FrazettaGirls Don`t mention it.
nice :)
I love Frank frazetta
