DONOVAN'S BRAIN (1953/Dowling Productions/UA.) 83 Minutes Black & White. 16mm Very Good Original - splices here and there, a few bad ones.

Now HERE is a movie to be reckoned with. Is this the first Brain On A Table Movie? Almost. Certainly the best, after the Brain That Wouldn't Die. Directed & Screenplay by Felix Feist; Produced by Tom Gries; Edited by Herbert L. Strock; Special Effects by Harry Redmond Jnr.; Based on the novel by Curt Siodmak. Adapted by Hugh Brooke. Starring Lew Ayres, Gene Evans, Nancy Davis (later Nancy Reagan), Tom Powers.
