Paul Williams (III)

Diana Ross, Billy Dee Williams

Paramount, 2005

Diana Ross is incredible
In my opinion, (surely due to strong bias because I have been listening to this album since I was a little girl) this album/DVD contains some of the absolute best versions of Billie Holiday songs ever recorded. Diana Ross exquisitely captured the perfect tempo(i), ...

The Mack (New Line Platinum Series)

Max Julien, Don Gordon

New Line Home Video, 2002

Old School Pimp Flick With A Lesson
This isnt just a movie glorifying the pimp game. This pieces touches on the pros and cons of pimp life. Action packed yet makes you think. An Excellent buy.

Smokey and the Bandit - Special Edition

Burt Reynolds, Sally Field

Universal Studios, 2006

I can't help but not like it....
Many people find me to be a person of refined and cultured taste. I like Classical music and jazz. I like to visit art museums, and I like to read poetry. All I can say about "Smokey and the Bandit" is this: it is a silly, stupid movie of little or no cultural or ...

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea (Special Edition)

James Mason, Kirk Douglas

Walt Disney Video, 2003

Disney's 20000 Leagues Under the Sea
Disney's 20000 Leagues Under the Sea was one of the most influential film experiences of my youth. I definitely rate it as a five star film with good special effects, which though dated, were very good for the time. The best of the special effects scenes was the giant ...

Classic Cartoons
I love Tom and Jerry. I used to watch these all the time. I used to read their books all the time. I am so glad that there is something out there that has allowed me to relive my childhood. I think any adult and child should have the plesure to watch these classic ...

Charlotte's Web, a classic for young children

Network (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Faye Dunaway, William Holden

Warner Home Video, 2006

You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale, and I won't have it!
Show a remarkable prescience for a 1976 movie, Paddy Chayefsky's brutal satire of the television nation in the not so distant future still stings the eyes. Faye Dunaway's cutthroat executive was talking reality TV almost a quarter century before Survivor's First Season ...

Tom and Jerry - Spotlight Collection

Tex Avery, Joseph Barbera

Warner Home Video, 2004

Re-living my childhood
Looney Tunes, Droopy and Tom & Jerry were some of my favorite cartoons when I was growing up and it's great to see that they're finally getting released on DVD sets since they're not shown on TV anymore. None of these newer cartoons even compare to these and probably ...

Roots (Four-Disc 30th Anniversary Edition)

Maya Angelou, Ji-Tu Cumbuka

Warner Home Video, 2007

Sound is deciving
Roots, what can one say about the grestest even in television history? But, if you are like me and have a surround sound systen DON'T purchase the 30th Anneversay edition. I only get audio out of the center speaker and it sounds like I am using a tin can for a ...

Hoodlum

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

"Get ready for your final thrill"

Phantom of the Paradise

Paul Williams (III), William Finley

20th Century Fox, 2001

Great Movie, Great Music
I first watched this movie on a CATV system in Escondido CA USA around 1975 - and loved it then. I bought a new DVD just to update the media because the old tape was getting scratchy. It's still a great movie and I still love the music, except it can get into my ...
