"SHERRY' MIXED WITH VINEGAR
I've been waiting years to write this review. I'm sick and tired of watching "Miracle on 34th Street" and "It's a Wonderful Life' during the Christmas holidays and hardly ever seeing this outrageously funny holiday classic even listed or mentioned. Just check out the ...

Frosty the Snowman

Billy De Wolfe, Jimmy Durante

Classic Media, 2007

Some parts of this film make me melt
What teacher--and school district--would keep kids enrolled so close to the holidays? Didn't they want to take a vacation too! Why weren't the kids's parents protesting the apparent lack of a semester break? I'm sure that my parents would have yanked me out anyways. ...

Timeless Rankin and Bass Christmas Classic Paired With An Unfortunate "Update".
While it is a total joy to have the classic Rankin and Bass Christmas classic "Frosty the Snowman", on DVD what is disappointing is that it is unfortunately paired on this DVD with a dour "update", of the adventures of the most famous Snowman in the world titled ...

True to life squirrel behavior in a fun movie
We have a tame (uncaged) squirrel and a bagpiper in the family so when I saw this dvd in a used bookstore I had to buy it. I put it on today, intending to grab 5 minutes to see how they managed the puppetry. The next thing I knew my entire family was riveted and ...

Meet The Baron finally sees the light of day.
I'm glad to see Meet The Baron is finally released on dvd. I just bought this the other day. Been wanting to see this movie for a long time. As a big stooges fan. Meet the baron isn't all that good of a movie. This is the stooges early stuff. When the stooges show up ...

Finally, something from a legend
There are few of the early television performers from my childhood that I remember more than Jimmy Durante. He is one of a kind, and, as this retrospective points out, it's not easy to define why he was so beloved. There could be better jobs of putting a retrospective ...
