Seems to me they used to show this movie on television around Easter time. Same with the Wizard of Oz. Don't know the significance and can't always trust my memory, but I do remember the movie being a big part of my childhood mythology, along with The Next Voice You Hear.
I've heard of this movie all my life..yet have never seen it..Isn't Robby the Robot in it?..and how does he fit in?? The Next Voice you Hear I have seen,but not in years...crazy stuff that one..

And please don't let on that the kid who played The Boy With Green Hair would be lip-syncing a Roy Orbison song in a David Lynch film 40 years later!
Robby the Robot was not in this film. He only was in two movies: Forbidden Planet and The Invisible Boy. This is a poetic anti-war film.
I chanced on this movie many years ago on late night TV. It is a great little film.
oh yeah..Invisible Boy is what I'm thinking of..
I missed seeing this on the big screen as part of the Losey retrospective and still to this day haven't seen it.
