"Bosko's Picture Show"



"Bosko's Picture Show" (short), 1933. Bosko hosts a motion picture showing.

Directed by Friz Freleng & Hugh Harman. Starring Johnny Murray & Rochelle Hudson.

Concept: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 1/4 (Bad)
Dialog: 3/4 (Good)
Pacing: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 1/4 (Bad). The sound is terrible; the newsreel sequence is largely unintelligible.
Acting: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Music: 3/4 (Good)
Subjective Rating: 6/10 (Okay, 2/4). The nature of the thing (a series of different "films") keeps it entertainingly unpredictable, although none of the components are especially good on their own.
Objective Rating (Average): 1.9/4 (Eh)
