Abbey

Masterpiece Theatre: Northanger Abbey

JJ Field, Felicity Jones

WGBH Boston, 2008

Excellent Entertainment
I thought the story was interesting from beginning to end. The actors were convincing and showed great depth of character. I didn't want it to end and I wish there was a sequel. It was well worth the price I paid. I was not familiar with this particular story and I ...

Trick

Tori Spelling, Christian Campbell

New Line Home Video, 2000

Charming, fast paced and romantic film
This is a romantic, funny and very sexy movie. My friends (straight and gay) always enjoy watching it at my place. The guys are really hot; the story is somewhat suspenseful and the music is great. Tori Spelling is hilarious; there is electricity between the male ...

Titanic (Three-Disc Special Collector's Edition)

Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet

Paramount, 2005

Saw it about thirty times in theaters...
and now have it in my dvd collection. It's been over a decade, but Titanic is a timeless masterpiece that never goes out of date. This movie has a little bit of everything in it...action, romance,...you laugh...you cry. Leo and Kate made us care about what happened to ...

Enjoyed this DVD
We enjoyed watching this version of Northanger Abbey. It takes you back to a more civilized time! Would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys period pieces.

Broken (Unrated)

Nadja Brand, Eric Colvin (II)

Weinstein Company, 2007

Brilliant movie!
Great setting throughout, beautiful woodland, or so it seems, apparently it was just a thicket, as explained on the extras on the dvd, which is kind of sad really, making it seem as though nowhere in the UK can you find a really secluded woodland that is actually far ...

For Love of Ivy

Sidney Poitier, Abbey Lincoln

MGM (Video & DVD), 2004

FOR LOVE OF IVY
WHAT ELSE CAN YOU SAY ABOUT A SIDNEY POITIER MOVIE, BUT HOW WONDERFUL IT IS TO SEE AGAIN AND AGAIN. THIS ONE RANKS UP THERE WITH "IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT", AND "LILLIES OF THER FIELD". SO I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT FOR OTHERS TO ENJOY.

A Handful of Dust

James Wilby, Kristin Scott Thomas

Hbo Home Video, 2004

If "Requiem for a Dream" were a period peice film ...
I will admit, I was not a fan of this film during the first fifteen minutes when it nearly went into the "Period Film Sleeping Bag" category, but after you get through this first hump (which is to wean out the naysayers) this is a very disturbing and thoughtful film. ...

Donavon Frankenreiter

Lost Highway, 2006

Great Donavon Fix!
The intimate setting of the Abbey Sessions studio is amazing, it blows your mind, totaly relaxing and personal. You get to know the man behind the music. Seing his interaction with his son and his pation for life and music makes you appreciate him that much more. He ...

The '60s

Josh Hamilton, Julia Stiles

Lions Gate, 1999

I love this movie
I saw this movie on TV several years ago and searched and searched for it before finding it here. I think I paid $12.00 for it. I bought one for my mother last year and paid $60.00. I think the movie is totally worth the price. It'sone of my favorite movies I have ...

Architectures, Vol. 4

Architectures 4

Arte, 2005

A Fascinating Tour
These DVDs constitute a fascinating tour through architectural theory. Copans and Neumann are beginning to reach further back in time with Ledoux's saltwokrs and a Romanesque church, and they do an excellent job of not only highlighting the buildings but also the ...
