Ups an' Downs Derby (1950)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Said to be the fastest horse around, Lightning the horse is a sure bet for the Ups and Downs steeplechase. The jockey is all set to go for the big race, but Lightning decides to take a nap instead. The jockey tries all sorts of things to get Lightning to wake up. The real fun begins as he comes up with a plan of how to enter the race with a sleeping horse.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
