MOVIE SHOTS
Preview writers and the folks who create newspaper headlines have always fascinated me. So much to say and so few characters in which to say it. With this in mind, one of my pastimes is reading on-screen television movie guide synopses on the preview channel. Here’s a recent one for the 1965 movie, “Wild, Wild Planet”, starring Tony Russel, Lisa Gastoni, and Massimo Serato that really cracked me up:
“A space cowboy saves planetary leaders from an alien shrinker’s army of inflatable females.”
How could anyone pass up a come-on like that?
I think I saw a few suggested headlines like that in my newspaper days.

Once I determined there were no negros, lezzie dyke’s or homosexuals in “Wild Wild Planet” I quit watching. I only watch P.C. type movies!!! I’m a Democrat.
