"Our Gang: Inside the Clubhouse" was a pretty good documentary on that classic comedy movie shorts series
31 January 2018
Having just seen most of the available "Our Gang/Little Rascals" series films in existence right now, I felt the need to also now watch this documentary of many of the then-surviving members of that unique group of children who were a part of it. I was especially fascinated by George "Spanky' McFarland's recollections concerning many of his former castmates. When Robert Blake was mentioned, he said his and Mickey's (Blake's then name) parents got along offscreen which would be as good an explanation as why they-Spank and Bob-got along real well after reuniting after some 40 years later from the series end in 1944. Also loved both his and Tommy "Butch" Bond's take on the late Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer's outlook on life. Overall, "Our Gang: Inside the Clubhouse" is a very good, not great, documentary of the entire run of the "Our Gang/Little Rascals" series.
