Shirley Jones

Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (Full Screen)

Kiersten Warren, Angus Macfadyen

WARNER HOME VIDEO, 2002

Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood
Anyone who has ever been a sister, mother or daughter will love this movie! Great acting all around.

Irma La Douce

Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

I've fallen head over heals for Irma...
Yet another Billy Wilder smash hit, `Irma La Douce' pits the wonderfully charming Shirley MacLaine against the hilariously witty Jack Lemmon in a comedy that is every bit as smart as it is unforgettable. This is one of those comedies that sneaks up on you, getting ...

Fall of Eagles

Bruce Purchase, John Barcroft

Koch Vision, 2006

Great interpretation of historical events
I have always liked European history, and the issue of the fall of the royal dynasties is a very important aspect. When you consider that, for instance, the House of Habsburg was not only part of history, but "made" history for 800 years, you can realize how important ...

Bridget Jones's Diary (Collector's Edition)

Renée Zellweger, Gemma Jones

Miramax, 2004

You'll never get a boyfriend if you look like you wandered out of Auschwitz.
OK, I am an avid fan of Jane Austen, but Bridget Jones is NOTHING like Austen. Anyone with the slightest of ideas on the subject can see that. Helen Fielding wrote both the novel and the screenplay to Bridget Jones's Diary and yes, it is loosely based on Pride and ...

Essential Classics - American Musicals (The Music Man / Meet Me in St. Louis / Seven Brides for Seven ...

Robert Preston, Shirley Jones

Warner Home Video, 2007

Great service!
These are some of the essentials in American musicals, especially Seven Brides For Seven Brothers. The dances are spectacular. My favorite is I'm a Lonesome Polecat.

The Music Man (Special Edition)

Robert Preston, Shirley Jones

Warner Home Video, 1999

A great musical!
This is a great movie. I got my husband to watch it with me and he couldn't believe how much fun it was. Give it a try. You won't regret it.

Shirley Temple - America's Sweetheart Collection, Vol. 1 (Heidi / Curly Top / Little Miss Broadway)

Shirley Temple, Jean Hersholt

20th Century Fox, 2005

Shirley Temple
This is another great Christmas item that I bought for my mom at Christmas time. Once you see one of them, you have to see them all.

Shag

Phoebe Cates, Scott Coffey

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

Careful!
Be careful to get the correct version (the one w/ the characters riding in a car) of the VCR tape so that you get the period music by the original artists. The DVD doesn't have the original artists, either. Also be careful whom you buy from. The copy of the version ...

Grandma's Boy (Unrated Edition)

Linda Cardellini, Allen Covert

20th Century Fox, 2006

Hilarious
This movie is great. Gotta love all the characters/actors. I got the movie in new condition and in a timely manner.

Oklahoma! (50th Anniversary Edition)

Gordon MacRae, Gloria Grahame

20th Century Fox, 2005

Oklahoma
The dvd is 3 hours of great music. Truly a classic movie. Worth the cost to have so it can be played many times.

Hollywood Singing and Dancing: A Musical History ? (2 Disc Special Edition)

Shirley Jones

Great Musical Treasu, 2008

Saw the premiere! Loved it!
I was lucky enough to see the premiere of this film at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. The best way I can describe it is pure joy. All of my favorite musicals were here and a few I've never heard of (of which I promptly rented and loved - The Harvey Girls is the ...

Carousel (50th Anniversary Edition)

Gordon MacRae, Shirley Jones

20th Century Fox, 2006

Carousel
A near perfect reproduction of the film. Would have liked a transfer from the Cinemascope 55 elements rather than just the Cinemascope. The Oklahoma disk offered a choice between the Todd AO and cinemascope versions. Todd AO is by far the best.

Andre

Keith Carradine, Chelsea Field

Paramount, 2002

Great movie for kids as well as adults
For all animal lovers, kids and adults alike, this is a wonderful true story that inspires me every time I watch it (yes, I've watched it many times!!). Kids love it too. It's a good way to get kids interested in animals. Highly recommended.

Heidi

Shirley Temple, Jean Hersholt

20th Century Fox, 2005

Far more than just a movie for little girls...
I never watched Shirley Temple growing up. My sister did, but she was not my cup of tea (as is to be expected with any young boy really). Now that I am older and I have a young daughter of my own I have found that I watch, and enjoy, quite a few films that I would ...

Bridget Jones - The Edge of Reason (Full Screen Edition)

Renée Zellweger, Gemma Jones

Universal Studios, 2005

Bridget Jones - The Edge of Reason
This is a must see if you enjoyed Bridgit Jones's Diary. It's the "rest of the story". Because I liked Bridgit Jones's Diary and Bridget Jones -The Edge of Reason so much, I ordered them for my DVD library to watch whenever I need some joy and a laugh.
