★★★★★ · Going bananas · Umass_Kid · 2004-04-03
Great flick on Banana growing. Watching you canÃÂt help but think of malaria :). Look for the great shots of cartoon vitamin characters. As an added bonus you get some great 1920ÃÂs sports shots.
★★★★ · Be Bold With Bananas! · Spuzz · 2002-12-09
Interesting film about one heck of a bizarre subject. Film starts in an unnamed South American country, where those pesky virgin rain forests are chopped down for Banana farms. Soon the Bananas grow, and we are shown how they get to market. About 5 minutes left into the show, the film starts getting PROPOGANDISTIC with titles in CAPITALS coming TOWARDS us, to NAIL THE POINT DOWN. Rather offputting for such an innocous fruit!
★★★ · Review used for off-topic agenda · Chip Cogswelle · 2012-06-27
Before clicking play, I usually look at reviews. This film has a long (large charCount) post that is WAY OFF topic, and a little scary. What's goin' on?? The film is o.k.

I thought this was to do with the Woody Allen film. Bananas are yellow (green when un-ripe), grow on trees, and hang out in a bunch, sometimes hosting spiders. Watch the film. Prepare to be amazed.
