The rocketship crashes into the Earth, killing everyone inside.The father has earned the respect of his son only because he has killedsomeone.The woman lies in bed, her life ruined irreparably as the cop walksaway from her.The young girl stares at a toy boat, unaware of the numerous deathsshe has caused.The man with the badge rides away, leaving a trail of lifeless bodiesin his wake.These are all unforgettable endings to great movies that have eitherbeen neglected or forgotten. Despite the high merits of these movies,they never received the large audiences they deserved. But it may not betoo late for belated recognition.In this third volume of Celluloid Adventures, the spotlight is onceagain on movies that are unjustifi ably underrated or undeservedly unknown.The movies cover a span of three decades, from 1942 to 1971. Asin Volume 2, these movies represent a variety of genres. They include aWestern that is also a suspense movie, an adventure fi lm that is also afantasy and a science fi ction story that is also a tragedy. There is a movieabout children that is not for children, a crime movie that is a social dramaand a Western that is both traditional and radical. There is also a fi lmnoir that is a morality play, a thriller that is horrifyingly prophetic and apolice story about an offi cer who uses his badge to kill. There is a comedyand a war movie but the comedy has dark overtones and the war movieis anti-military.
