Forbidden Planet (1956) – F. Wilcox
I thought I had seen
this before, but apparently not since my memories were in black and white and
this is in amazing color (lots of contrasting reds and greens). A bunch of
astronauts in the future land on a planet where a man and his daughter have
been castaways (think The Tempest). They are attacked by a mysterious force
(which is animated with assistance from Disney in one great scene). The
Freudian and Shakespearean undertones provide heft to an otherwise B-movie
set-up.
