Prophecies of Nostradamus #2

Let&apos;s Ask Nostradamus (1953) 

** (out of 4) 

The second entry in MGM&apos;s &quot;Prophecies of Nostradamus&quot; series starts off with the famed visionist writing a letter to his young son saying how he wants to leave him a legacy. We then hear one of the most compelling cases where Nostradamus predicts the fate of Marie Antoinette and King Louis. MGM did over a dozen shorts of the predictions of Nostradamus and all of them were very hit and miss. This one here is sadly a miss but I think this has a lot more to do with the time that this was made than anything else. You can view countless documentaries on Nostradamus and his predictions but the problem with this film is that we&apos;re given what the man said and then we see a clip from the movie. There&apos;s really no rhyme or reason as to the connection between what Nostradamus said and what really ended up happening. If you believe that this man predicted the future then you&apos;re going to believe what is said. If you don&apos;t believe that he could see the future then you&apos;re going to hear his writings and say he could have been talking about anything. Carey Wilson does a nice job with the narration and he tries his best to sell it but in the end the stories being told just aren&apos;t that strong.
