The Scarlet Letter

,
Meg Foster
Wgbh Boston, 2003
This is the novel brought to life.
If you want to truly experience Hawthorne's work, this version is for you. In contrast, the Demi Moore version bears little resemblance to the novel. To choose it over the PBS version would be akin to choosing a coloring -book rendering of the Mona Lisa over the ...
Dog Day Afternoon
Penelope Allen,
Sully Boyar
Warner Home Video, 1997
Every dog has its day; this day is glorious...
In 1975 there was one film that completely swept the Oscars, winning awards for Picture, Screenplay, Director, Lead Actor and Lead Actress; a feat that has only been accomplished three times in the history of the Academy Awards. That film has gone on to become on of ...
The Good Night
Penélope Cruz,
Martin Freeman (II)
Sony Pictures, 2008
excellent
A very good movie for those who study their dreams and have had lucid dreams. The author knew his stuff.
Scarecrow

Al Pacino
Warner Home Video, 2005
"For every car, there is dirt."
Having read a decent amount of opinions about the film Scarecrow (1973), I've noticed quite a few differing thoughts with regards to how specific visuals and elements were interpreted, but the one aspect that many seem to agree upon is this is a vastly underrated ...
The Thin Red Line
Kirk Acevedo
, Penelope Allen
20th Century Fox, 2002
Malick's Poetic War Film: The Thin Red Line.
Terrence Malick's name is synonymous with his visionary films Badlands (1973), Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998), and The New World (2005)--four of the best films I have ever seen. Based on the James Jones' novel, The Thin Red Line tells a fictional World ...

Resurrection
Ellen Burstyn
,
Sam Shepard
Universal Studios, 1998
Please, Please Release on DVD!!!
Another gem that somehow fell through the cracks, despite its Academy Award-nominated performaces by Ellen Burstyn and Eva Le Gallienne. With so much junk on DVD, why does Resurrection remain mysteriously absent? Makes absolutely no sense to me. Hmmph.
Biloxi Blues
Matthew Broderick
,
Christopher Walken
Universal Studios, 2004
Laugh Out Loud Funny
This is one of the funniest movies I have seen recently. My husband and I watched it on one of the satellite channels and we were laughing out loud. I love Neil Simon movies and this one is really funny. We can't see it enough.
Sybil (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Joanne Woodward
,
Sally Field
Warner Home Video, 2006
For some, just waking up is an adventure most will never live
I work professionally with mentally ill people. I've been one myself (Bipolar. I figured out years ago how to turn that around.) So I've always been curious about Sybil. And as always, I am a 70's movies addict. This is not the kind of illness I normally work with but ...

Waking Up in Reno
Natasha Richardson
,
Holmes Osborne
Quirky, funny movie
This movie is the kind of movie you want to watch to be entertained. There is no deep meaning, it's just a very funny movie. Out of the four main characters, Billy Bob Thorton and Charlize Theron really stand out for their comical portrayals. The two couples decide ...

The Bedroom Window
Steve Guttenberg
,
Elizabeth McGovern
Lions Gate, 2006
Paging Brian DePalma!
Isabelle Huppert and generic Steve Guttenberg prove incompatible costars in "The Bedroom Window," a cockamamie mystery that finds these bi-continentals drawn together like refrigerator magnets to styrofoam coolers. The lovers are supposed to be absolutely crazy ...
The War at Home
Penelope Allen,
Kathy Bates
Buena Vista Home Entertainment, 2002
Brilliant
I just watched this movie on TV and all I can say is wow. The characters all play out like real family members. Kathy Bates is just brilliant in her role as the mother. I think there are many families who can relate to these people. I don't know how anybody can watch ...
