Andy Griffith goes Dark
Looneymanthegreat - wrote on 04/02/2013
My father was always a big Andy Griffith show fan so I watched a lot with him as a young lad. There’s always been something appealing about that simple wise homespun sort of hero, and The Andy Griffith show was and always has been a classic example.
Sadly, I have not watched The Andy Griffith Show in a long long time, not since I first saw A Face in the Crowd. A Face in the Crowd has sort of ruined it for me; or rather I’m afraid it has.
The film stars Griffith (before he got his fame) as a drifter who, through some fluke luck ends up with his own television show. His refreshing outlook on life gains him unprecedented popularity, and his fame and wealth, things he didn’t have, or cared about having before hand.
The movie is a startling depiction of a normal sane man …
