“A Creepy Exploitation Double-bill”
By Raymond Benson
Here we go again! Another entry in the “Forbidden Fruit: The Golden Age of the Exploitation Picture” series, this time it’s Volume 5. Presented by Kino Lorber in association with Something Weird Video, we have for your viewing pleasure the double-bill of Tomorrow’s Children, released in 1934 and directed by Crane Wilbur, who went on to do an impressive amount of writing and directing for (mostly) B-movies, and Child Bride, released in 1938 and directed by the notorious Harry J. Revier, a practitioner in cinema sensationalism dating back to the silent era. Note: Some online sources such as Wikipedia incorrectly state that the running time of Tomorrow’s Children is 70 minutes (here it’s 56 minutes and there doesn’t seem to be anything missing), and that Child Bride was released in 1943.

If your ticket to the Oscars got lost in the post, don't despair. Our experts know just where to go to bump in to the hottest celebs. Here are their top tips

Very Public Restaurants!
No, celebrities don't actually eat. But they do Love having their picture taken. A lot! So celebs will flock to those restaurants where the paparazzi are usually swarming. It's a safe bet that you can run into a star at The Ivy (113 N Robertson Blvd; +1 310 274 8303), Toast (8221 West 3rd Street; +1 323 655 5018, toastbakerycafe.net) or Joan's On 3rd (8350 West Third Street; +1 323 655 2285, joansonthird.com). Those are the top three "Look At Me" restaurants, but they're not even the best! My favourite eatery in Los Angeles is José Andrés's The Bazaar (465 South La Cienega Blvd; +1 310 246 5555, thebazaar.com), which specialises in tapas done with a molecular-gastronomy twist.
High-End Retail!
It used to be Rodeo Drive.
