The Only Good Indian
Kevin Willmott
4/6
The next film in our Willmott cavalcade was supposed to be Bunker Hill (2008), but that film seems to be completely impossible to find. Shame.
The Only Good Indian sees Willmott in the director’s chair with someone else’s script in his hands. Still much the same subject matter, but it never reaches the heights of CSI.
C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America [2004]
C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America
Kevin Willmott
6/6
A brief history of the Confederate States of America from the hypothetical future in which the south won the American civil war. Back in 2014 I stumbled upon this film and decided to watch Kevin’s entire body of work. And here I am, and it’s not even the next decade!
The ’70s [2000]
Youth in Revolt [2009]
The Man Who Knew Too Much [1934]
The Man Who Knew Too Much
Alfred Hitchcock
5/6
Something wonderful has happened in the realm of cinema since Hitch’s last outing. Or in the realm of digital transfer. Or both. In any case, this film looks about a million times better than the earlier ones.
Things have taken a turn content-wise as well. This feels much more like the later Hitchcock we all know and love. I’m almost allowing myself to hope we’re done with musicals and theater-adaptations.

6/6
I know I was supposed to binge watch all of Kevin Willmott’s movies, but I’d forgotten to buy #2.
*doh*
And then I got sick. So now I’m on the couch with this new old laptop with some Linux on it, meaning I had to get tearing free video to work.
*doh*
But I’m happy to report that getting tearing free video is much easier now than it was the last time I tried when it was impossible. Anyway, I have this bootleg in high quality version (in a sense) that I don’t know where I got. Luckily, it’s on the Youtube. It really is quite peak prog, even if it’s kinda fake—the audio is apparently sourced from a number of different recordings, from more than one night. No bother though—Armageddon in Nine Eighths still melts my brain.
