Viewing Notes

If you would’ve told me that the director of Singin’ in the Rain also directed this movie, I wouldn’t believe you. But here we are.

Stanley Donen died today so rather than watching one of the handful of films that everyone has recommended to pay tribute, I’m watching SATURN 3 via my Scream Factory blu that I picked up some time ago on sale. Haven’t seen this since I was a kid and it regularly ran on HBO. It’s on my childhood movies list but I honestly don’t have any recollection of this film other than a few moments.

I know this isn’t a good movie but I’m looking forward to this viewing in honor of Stanley Donen. RIP
