Don Ameche

Betty Grable Collection, Vol. 1 (My Blue Heaven / The Dolly Sisters / Moon Over Miami / Down Argentine Way)

Don Ameche, Betty Grable

20th Century Fox, 2006

OH THOSE LEGS
FIVE TOP MOVIES OF BETTY GRABLE. THE RESTERATION IS TOPS. COLOR IS GREAT. I HAVE AN HD TV AND THE VIEWING OF THE MOVIES COULD NOT BE BETTER. THE SOUND WAS TOP QUALITY ALSO. THE ONLY THING I REGRET IS I WANT MORE.

That Night in Rio (Fox Marquee Musicals)

Alice Faye, Don Ameche

20th Century Fox, 2007

fine classic musical from Fox--with lavish numbers all aglow...
That Night In Rio is a musical that features wonderful song and dance numbers by some really great stars. We get Carmen Miranda singing and dancing up a storm; Alice Faye sings a couple of songs that she was born to sing; and even Don Ameche sings very well! The color ...

Trading Places

Denholm Elliott, Dan Aykroyd

Paramount, 2002

The greatest comedy of all time!
This film is the absolute best comedy ever! It may not be the funniest (that probably goes to Tommy Boy - also with Dan Ackroyd - hmm - the burning model car scene makes me laugh until I cry just thinking about it), but for laughs and satisfaction it doesn't get any ...

Alexander's Ragtime Band

Tyrone Power, Alice Faye

20th Century Fox, 2004

Alexander's Ragtime Band...or is it Alec's? No, Alex's...wait, it's Roger's...right???
I love this movie. I have never thought that Fox musicals were all that great (you want GOOD musicals, you go to MGM) but I love them because they usually have very enjoyable stories and acting. ALEXANDER'S RAGTIME BAND is no exception. The actors are great, the story ...

Things Change

Don Ameche, Joe Mantegna

Sony Pictures, 2000

My favorite David Mamet film of the 80's.
Things Change (1988) Actor Don Ameche continued his remarkable comeback in David Mamet's story of a naive shoeshiner who is roped by the mob into posing as one of their own. Joe Mantegna steals the film for me, as Ameche's reluctant minder. Glengarry Glen Ross gets ...

Cocoon

Don Ameche, Wilford Brimley

20th Century Fox, 2004

An 80's sci-fi classic!
A group of retired old folks (Wilford Brimley, Don Ameche, Hume Cronyn, Jessica Tandy, Walter Giford, Gwen Verndon and Herta Ware) discover at their retirement village's swimming pool some unusual coccoons from outer space that gives them the energy of youth. However a ...

Heaven Can Wait (Criterion Collection)

Gene Tierney, Don Ameche

Criterion, 2005

A witty, humane, thoughtful movie directed by Ernst Lubitsch and written by Samson Raphaelson
"As Henry Van Cleve's soul passed over The Great Divide, he realized that it was extremely unlikely that his next stop could be Heaven. And so, philosophically, he presented himself where innumerable people had so often told him to go." Henry (Don Ameche) is greeted ...

The Boatniks

Robert Morse, Stefanie Powers

Walt Disney Home Entertainment, 2005

Good clean comedy
STORY: A seasoned Coast Guard Lt. Jordan (Joey Forman) is transferring out of one of the craziest, most crowded recreational harbors in the US coastlines, Newport Beach Harbor, California. Robert Morse stars his bumbling new replacement, Coast Guard Ensign Thomas ...

Down Argentine Way

Don Ameche, Betty Grable

20th Century Fox, 2006

fine, classic movie musical with scenery and entertainment
Down Argentine Way is a delightful, light fare type of early 1940s movie musical that should charm just about anyone who loves this type of motion picture. We get fine performances from great stars including Betty Grable, Don Ameche, Carmen Miranda and the incredible ...

In Old Chicago

Tyrone Power, Alice Faye

20th Century Fox, 2005

Now That's Entertainment!
They really do not make movies like this wonderful classic anymore. Fine lead performances from handsome Tyrone Power, beautiful Alice Faye and debonair Don Ameche. Hearing the gorgeous Ms. Faye sing my state song "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny" is well worth the price ...

Trading Places (Special Collector's Edition) [Blu-ray]

Denholm Elliott, Dan Aykroyd

Paramount, 2008

The greatest comedy of all time!
This film is the absolute best comedy ever! It may not be the funniest (that probably goes to Tommy Boy - also with Dan Ackroyd - hmm - the burning model car scene makes me laugh until I cry just thinking about it), but for laughs and satisfaction it doesn't get any ...

Oscar

Peter Riegert, Chazz Palminteri

Walt Disney Video, 2003

Unbelievable comedy
When I saw this movie for the first time, I was absolutely surprised. Stallone is amazing as well as rest of the cast. I can reccomend this movie to every person, which want to see Sly but no violence. Charming and funny comedz for all family.

Midnight (Universal Cinema Classics)

Charles Brackett, Claudette Colbert

Universal Studios, 2008

COOKY COMEDY
This is one of those funny stories that can only happen in a movie! But it's very entertaining, fast moving and recommended to any old Hollywood movie buffs.

Tyrone Power Matinee Idol Collection (Cafe Metropole/Girls Dormitory/Johnny Apollo/Daytime Wife/Luck of the ...

Tyrone Power, Loretta Young

20th Century Fox, 2008

Dead for 50 Years, Tyrone Power is Still Big Box Office
Tyrone Power died on November 15, 1958. In 2007, 20th Century Fox released a five-disk set of Power's swashbuckler films and was overwhelmed by its success - so overwhelmed, in fact, that a year later, they are following it up with 10 more films, the majority of which ...
