As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     Juno and the Paycock
1930  NR  DRAMA  1h 25min
CAST— Sara Allgood, Edward Chapman, Sidney Morgan, Marie O’Neill, John Laurie, Dennis Wyndham, John Longden
MUSIC— Unknown  DIRECTOR— Alfred Hitchcock  BASED ON— Juno and the Paycock (play), by Seán O’Casey

     Juno is a long-suffering wife and mother. Her husband is a drunken good-for-nothing. Her son has lost an arm in protest against the war. Her daughter is unmarried and pregnant. When news comes that her husband has received an inheritance the family begins to spend. The inheritance itself proves to be a bust. Every item returns from whence it came, much to their embarrassment. Then to cap it all off, her son dies. When will it end? That’s what you’ll be thinking ten minutes into this Hitchcockian blunder.
