BlueCowboyFilms.com - The Nanny

BlueCowboyFilms.com - The Nanny: Many films today seem to have a plot that is not only predictable, but also tends to leave the viewer on the outside. Many of these movies are nowhere near enjoyable because you are never allowed to truly experience the feelings and interactions of the characters. Unlike the characters on the screen, you know exactly what is going to happen, where it is going to happen, and when it is going to happen. That sense of dread, fear, or uncertainty you see on the actors' faces never makes its way into your on psyche, thus leaving you with not only a sense of helplessness, but also boredom. Not so with the 1965 classic 'The Nanny' starring Bette Davis and William Dix.

Lord of the Flies 1963 I was first introduced to this story as a college student. While casually chatting with a classmate in the library, we began discussing the different books that we had read. 'Lord of the Flies' had been a required reading project for him as a high school student. His description of the book intrigued me. I checked out the first available copy, and hid myself in a recliner, underneath a blanket for the next three days. It is a story that has fascinated my to this day.

While the setting, clothing styles, etc. suggest a 1930s time frame, you are left with the impression that this film could also be about a dismal futuristic time. While the movie seems simple enough, one will realize that after watching it that there are many questions that are left unanswered.
