This review is from: Jack and the Beanstalk (1952) (DVD)
Returned the item. The quality was bad. I couldn't forward to another part of the movie. I was just taken to the end to some advertisement.

...the legend of the famous giant killer, Jack!,

This review is from: Jack and the Beanstalk (1952) (DVD)
JACK AND THE BEANSTALK (1952) is a fun family musical that has Lou Costello as a babysitter and in a dream sequence, Jack of the kid's fable. Bud Abbott's dual roles are Lou's lazy, manipulative partner and later he's money-grubbing Mr. Dinklepuss.
This was originally issued on part amber tone/part Supercinecolor film. Supercinecolor was always an iffy proposition, similar in quality to pre-1935 Technicolor's 2-strip process. Oh it's color all right, but strange hues abound. A bit of history: Late in their UNIVERSAL days, the boys decided to independently produce two color movies. The first was Bud's ABBOTT & COSTELLO MEET CAPTAIN KIDD (not currently available), the second being Lou's, this far more charming work. In it, he sings: I fear nothing when I am in the right! Who ever pushes me around will find me full of fight! I fear nothing when I do nothing wrong And so I toddle on my way and sing a merry song! I'll be defiant and be obstreperous If any giant should try and salt-and-pepper us! And I'll rise up, up to my fullest height 'Cause I fear absolutely nothing when I'm in the right! A man believes what he believes And by these principles a man must stand A time will come for rolled-up sleeves And it might help to have a fist on hand! If I believe that I am right There's only one thing to be done I don't go looking for a fight But I have never run away from one! But only fools will take a dare And there are things that only fools defy If I smell trouble in the air I hold my breath until the breeze blows by! I'll snort defiance like some rhinoceros Afraid of giants, now, isn't that preposseros! I find courage a thing of great delight! Sing fee-dilly-ay and fee-dilly-aye with steady hand and steely eye! I fear nothing when I am in the right!
