Believe It or Not #5 (1930) * 1/2 (out of 4) You never really know what you're going to get out of Robert L. Ripley's short series because they all vary in quality. They also vary in what exactly you're going to get and this one here offers very little. Ripley goes to a Milk Fund where he begins to talk about all sorts of things that we can believe or not and then we see a six-month-old girl who can roller skate. That's pretty much all we get to "see" as the rest of the stories are just that. Ripley tells us all sorts of strange things but we never get to see them and that makes this short rather worthless and boring. As I said, the series is always hit and miss but I've never seen one that offers us so little in terms of getting to watch some of these amazing stories. At the start of the film we're told about a man who hasn't slept in 75 years. We finally see this guy at the end of the film as he gets a few lines of dialogue (badly dubbed at that) and this is all the proof we're given of his claim.
