The Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin —
THE ADVENTURES OF BULLWHIP GRIFFIN is a wonderful Disney movie with plenty of humor. A painting which smiles and frowns as a will is being read is only the beginning. There are cartoon cherubs with trumpets several times crossing the tv screen which caused my teen son to laugh which I hadn't expected from him. Roddy McDowall is a devoted son of a butler who as a child threw a tantrum saying he would never grow up to be a butler. Then the female recipient of the will reminds him of their childhood and he tells her he was hoping nobody had remembered. The young boy in this movie has the desire to pan for gold, which causes the plot of this movie to unwind. Young Mr. Russell (real name of the young boy) is exuberant with his sister(played by Suzanne Pleshette) and also with Roddy McDowall's character. There is a lot of action, boxing, saloon fire, stowaways on a boat, robbing, dressing up as chinamen, but through it all the great city of San Francisco is created. What I found ironic was Streets of San Francisco Karl Mulden is also in this movie, he played a crucial part, or parts as a viewer may state. I loved to dislike the Judge!

That's funny! Well her name is Terri and since you are way up north and I'm way down south, I don't suppose that she has a long lost sister or twin sister??? Have a great day!
