tadpole-596-918256 Review of The Pink Blueprint

The Pink Blueprint (1966)

My main interest in rooting around in the . . .

[5/10 · 11 February 2023]

. . . behind-the-scenes version of THE PINK BLUEPRINT was finding out exactly how the little man contractor could have constructed a fancy three-story facade that would collapse to reveal a poverty row hovel the first time the front door was closed. Imagine my shock, then, to discover this backgrounder configuration included a canned "laugh track" bringing to mind the sort of mirthless unfunny banal Boo Tube fare from the 1900's that can still be found by self-punishment seekers on outlets such as TV Land. This kind of grating forced mirth is equivalent to fingernails on a blackboard to most people. Shame on the outfit disrespecting viewers in this tawdry fashion. Furthermore, the PAGE TO SCREEN edition sheds no light on the original conundrum.
