I just posted this brief look at an even briefer sub-sub-genre of the Hollywood Musical-- the country music movie. From the late 50s to the early 70s, these movies were a bright comet in the darkening skies of B-movie Hollywood. I enjoyed poking around in the Movies section of the edited guide, and thought this entry might make a nice addition. Like its subject matter, the entry is a little stupid, a little awkward, and a little déclassé, but it has a heart of gold.

Well done! I don't think it's stupid or déclassé. The reference to Ma and Pa Kettle and Lil Abner might need a footnote though. Also, the movie titles should be in italics, and you should use (bold) instead of the block capitals to give your work the Edited look. The list of movies at the end would be more interesting if you could include the names of the stars and possibly a word or two about the plot, if that's not getting a bit carried away.

I agree with John. This is a fun little entry. It looks like it was done in text rather than GuideML, but that's nothing a Sub can't fix.
I'm not familiar with this genre of bad movies, and I'd thought I'd seen them all...
Good one!
