That's probably her only claim to fame

Although, to be fair, a good teacher, and there are many, is worth their weight in gold

Default No Blade of Grass

Hi all,

This forum is great. Lots of interesting discussion.

I am looking for No Blade of Grass (1970) directed by Cornel Wilde.

I saw a DVD-R copy on ebay but failed to pick it up before
someone else snatched it.

Can someone help me out?

I shouldn't really say this because I have traded copies of No Blade Of Grass for many excellent movies, but that really is one lousy film.

When one thinks of all those great movies that Cornel Wilde made one can only say,"oh"

Sometimes you have to see a few lousy films to appreciate how great the great ones are
