The Man Who Knew Too Little
Bill Murray, Peter Gallagher
Warner Home Video, 1998
Great laugh
This movie is great! It's very funny, I laughed so hard it was simply therapeutic. Bill Murray is exceptional in this movie, he relishes the role of a clueless American in Europe. Hilarious!

Navy Seals
This is one of my all time favorite movies. The action and drama with a little romance thrown in is very well put together. I love Michael Biehn as the team leader. It's just an all around good movie!!! I have watched this movie over and over!!!

There is Only One Sun in the Universe
I have three films on Queen Elizabeth I in my library and this is by far the best in my collection. I have not see the one with Glenda Jackson to date and it is on my Wish List.
First off, I found the use of language to be intelligent, not like the Hollywood ...

A Christmas Carol
George C. Scott, Frank Finlay
20th Century Fox, 1999
The best version by far
I have always enjoyed this version of A Christmas Carol. It is great for kids, not too scary. It is a Christmas tradition. My daughter received a role in a stage production in our town because she watched it and loved it so much.

The Singing Detective
Michael Gambon, Patrick Malahide
BBC Warner, 2003
The Best Thing You'll ever watch
Some have suggested that "The Singing Detective" is the greatest production ever done for television; I could not even suggest a close number two!
I originally was inspired to look at The Singing Detective because I enjoyed the "Maigret" series so much. I thought ...

Willow (Special Edition)
Billy Barty, Tony Cox
20th Century Fox, 2001
Fantastic Movie!
Willow was such a delightful movie. I've had the movie for years and about every two years I play it again--it's that entertaining. You would think Hollywood would take the hint and had sequels to this movie. I feel this way about Clash of the Titans also--still ...

Trial by Jury
Joanne Whalley, Armand Assante
Warner Home Video, 2000
"Too Much Tampering Going On!"
Better than average performances by all the players. Kathleen Quinlin does a great job playing a part that is very far-afield from most of the parts I have seen her play. The gorefest in the park is a little unbelievable, but played well. Stuart Whitman was a sight ...

Scarlett
Joanne Whalley, Timothy Dalton
Lions Gate, 2001
Scarlett, the book
Great book. Written in sense of "Gone with the Wind." Good character development. Really saw the growth of Scarlet, from self-centered child to caring young woman. Always had the feeling, unlike the film, that it was Scarlet and Rhett. Set in Irish history ...

Mother's Boys
Jamie Lee Curtis, Peter Gallagher
Miramax, 1999
Jamie is wonderful!
An excellent thriller in the tradition of "Fatal Attraction" and "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle". A forgotten film casts Jamie Lee Curtis as the villin who wants her family back after deserting them years before...the only problem is her husband has a new girlfriend ...

Kill Me Again
Pat Mulligan, Nick Dimitri
MGM (Video & DVD), 2000
Trippy!
What a sexy woman Joanne Whalley is. I can see why Kilmer grabbed her & married her. In this movie she's the antecedent of the Linda Fiorentino character in Last Seduction, another wondrously sexy wench. John Dahl has a unique & powerful knack for choosing strong ...
