(Richard Corliss' review in New Times magazine was headlined "Kids Tough.") Of course, there *was* also that early '70s Saturday morning show, "Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp," featuring an all-chimpanzee cast . . . .

It's a satire using Western cliches. And, the little people are so cute on their Shetland ponies. "Teenagers from Outer Space" is definitely my

The shadow of the crow was really scary. That was long ago, however... Sadly, this review appears in the week that I discovered my old friend Zelda Rubenstein had passed away, nearly two years ago.

But, those bits were enough. As to movies with an "all anything cast", does ayone remember "Bill and Coo"? An all bird cast, (live birds), with a hero, (Bill a parakeet) saving Coo from the burning building after the villian, (the Crow) sets it on fire. A "B" flick, with years of patience to produce.

The poster for the event said "48 Inches of dynamite!" I'm sure many attendees thought the 48 inches referred to breast size. I was told by Uncle John that she died shortly thereafter.
