Movie Description
GHOSTS ON THE LOOSE: The Bowery Boys (the East Side Kids) end up in comedic horror when they try to renovate a crumbling house for Glimpy's newlywed sister and her husband. When they arrive at the address, they mistakenly start to work on the house next door--which is rumored to be haunted! Instead of ghosts, however, the Boys find a group of Nazi spies, led by Bela Lugosi.
THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO: This lavish, big-budget blockbuster combined tales from Ernest Hemingway's life with his already famous autobiographical novel of the same name. As Harry (Gregory Peck) lies wounded and delirious in an African campsite at the foot of the snow-covered slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro, he recounts the story of his life in a series of flashbacks. Writing, women, and big-game hunting--these are the things that have defined and dominated his existence. In pursuit of all three, he has traveled the globe from the salons of Bohemian Paris to the battlefields of Spain to the plains of Africa. Now, in the shadow of the great mountain and his own approaching death from gangrene, he tries to make sense of his failures. Few Hemingway novels play as well onscreen as they do on paper, but under the direction of Henry King, star Peck turns in an inspired performance. Susan Hayward plays Harry's devoted girlfriend, while Harry himself pines for the love he lost in Cynthia (Ava Gardner). The romantic, sentimental, qualities embedded in the fine script are driven home by Bernard Hermann's brilliant score. Theater operators actually feared that audiences would stay away from the film because they couldn't pronounce Kilimanjaro, but the film turned out to be one of the biggest hits of 1952.
WHISTLE STOP: A story of a small town girl who has trouble deciding beteen an "up to no good" playboy and the owner of a local nightclub.
