Geraldine McEwan

Juliet Stevenson, Kevin Bishop

TLA Releasing, 2003

Come out, come out, wherever you are!
This is an excellent film, with fine acting. It's a very human story about assumptions and the disasters that can follow by leaping before you look... In a homophobic society, and yes, America is that, it can be very dangerous for anyone to make decisions and act ...

Moses (The Bible Collection)

Ben Kingsley, Frank Langella

Turner Home Ent, 2005

Great movie!
Not only is Ben Kingsley a great actor, he brings the character of Moses alive biblically and physically! "The Lord has spoken!" is by far my favorite line. Don't miss the also very touching 'manna from heaven' scene. Brillant!

The Shakespeare Collection (Romeo + Juliet / Titus / A Midsummer Night's Dream)

Osheen Jones, Dario D'Ambrosi

20th Century Fox, 2006

terrific collection
three of possibly the most interesting films you'll see, all are dramatic, comical and beautiful in their own way.

Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (Widescreen Edition)

Peter Sallis, Helena Bonham Carter

Dreamworks Animated, 2006

You Betcher Bunny
Have some fun. The lovable claymation gadget-inventing duo hits the big screen for the first time in this outrageous and extremely silly adventure. Read the product description for the plot. Clever, harmless, engaging and completely goofy. The jokes are constant ...

Agatha Christie's Marple: Series 1

Geraldine McEwan, Christian Coulson

Acorn Media, 2005

The Bottom Line
I'll take the other reviewers' word for it: if you're a purist, pass on this one. However, if you simply want a marvelous fun, extremely well done series that's a joy to watch, go for it. You won't be disappointed.

The Magdalene Sisters

Kate Christie, Sean Colgan

Miramax Home Entertainment, 2004

An extremely serious look at a very serious problem
Women have always been treated unfairly. If you don't know that then you must have a labotomy or have blinders on. "The Magdalene Sisters" raises my ire again as we are forced to take a look at how the Irish (NOT ALL IRISH...RELAX) dealt with "problem" girls.This film ...

Agatha Christie's Marple: Series 2

Geraldine McEwan, Chloe Pennington

Acorn Media, 2006

Miss Marple Cute as a Button
There are some negative reviews for this series but I definitely enjoyed it. Geraldine McEwan is adorable, reminding me of Helen Hayes. The stories have been adapted but the production values are excellent. There are name stars such as Timothy Dalton, Anthony Andrews, ...

Mulberry - The Complete Series

Karl Howman, Geraldine McEwan

BBC Warner, 2006

One of the best Brit sitcoms
I love this series. It is so sweet and funny. Mulberry cares so much for Miss Farnaby. It would be wonderful if there was a Mulberry in everyone's life. Each episode is humorous and contrary to what another reviewer wrote there is no big mystery regarding the older ...

Love's Labour's Lost

Alfred Bell, Richard Clifford

Miramax, 2000

Branagh,Cole Porter,Irving Berlin and The Bard as if they,ve always been together!
Kenneth Branagh never ceases to amaze me or disappoint me when this great Shakesperean actor/director takes one of The Bard's plays and works his magic and whimsy and brings Shakespeare anew to the big screen.HENRY V,HAMLET,MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING and now LOVE"S ...

The Contaminated Man

William Hurt, Natascha McElhone

Lions Gate, 2002

Very Good!
I'm from the United Kingdom, and the title here for this movie is Contagion. I was attracted to this movie as it stars two of my fave actors, William Hurt and Peter Weller. The story is about a man-made virus which has been grown in a lab in Europe. An employee ...

Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit

Charlotte Coleman, Margery Withers

oranges are not the only fruit
I first saw this movie years ago in the early 90s when I happened to be up late one night channel-surfing. PBS aired the film from 12-3am, undoubtedly due to its homosexual content. Little did I know I was about to view one of the best gay-themed films I have seen to ...

Contaminated Man

Christopher Cazenove, William Hurt

First Look Pictures, 2005

VERY GOOD
THIS IS WHAT I LIKE ABOUT BEING A CINEMA FREAK. I HAVE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THIS MOVIE. SHOPPING TODAY I CAME ACROSS A BIN FULL OF MOVIES MARKED DOWN BECAUSE THE STORE WAS GOING OUT OF BUSINESS, THAT'S PURE CANDY TO ME. I BOUGHT ABOUT 15 MOVIES AND THIS ONE WAS ONE OF ...
