Let's Go Bowling! (1955)

Ah, remember when bowling was the high-class thing one could do in the 1950s? When men bowled in ties and women wore furs when they went to the bowling alley? Well, you can relive those moments in the delirious 'Let's Go Bowling', a film which puts bowling on the same level as, say, church going, as being the requirement of any 1950s respectable person--but remember! Only in 'approved' locations! These approved locations always have instructors who get a LITTLE too close when teaching you how to bowl, and who have their names engraved on their balls. Oh, and this is large pin bowling. The topic of small pin bowling, with smaller balls and pins, is briefly covered here--but you'll be a wimp if you play that because a) you'll never get a strike and b) you'll be bowling by yourself as there'll be noone else around. A bowling lesson bookmarked by bizarre observations of bowling culture, this is a reccomended ridiculous romp trip through a small-gauge sport.
