Life in perpetual motion
Persepolis is a wonder to behold! Not your standard cartoon, it's mostly black and white with some pretty basic animation. But frame by frame each simple sketch harnesses an enormous spirit. Funny, poignant, and endearing, it's also a real eye opener. Very much a ...

Most Inscrutable
You could almost feel the gentle trade winds of Hawaii during the 1920's in the first Charlie Chan novel by Earl Derr Biggers. Romantic and full of atmosphere, Biggers was always a great romance writer who simply incorporated mystery into his books to propel the story ...

Young Frankenstein

Puttin' on the Ritz
Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein are cheerfully sent up in this witty, wacky parody. Fans of the originals will smile in recognition as their favorite scenes are played for laughs. Mel Brooks used many of the same set pieces from the original Frankenstein and ...

Top Ten classic
"To Kill a Mockingbird" is a powerful, hugely well-acted film that should be on everyone's Top Ten and should be in every film collection. The book took me for a ride as a child, one of those rare books we were made to read in school that I could not put down; the ...

I can't believe my eyes
These are the best transfers I have ever seen. I recently compared my video copy of "A Plumbing We Will Go" with the version on Vol. 3 of this DVD series... All I can say is BUY THESE NOW!! Instead of scratched copies, these collections have been done with much ...

Sordid Funny!
I knew by the title-Sordid Lives, and the trailer on the cover, this had to be a funny movie! We all know someone who resembles the characters in this film from the the in-the-closet son to the neurotic mother of the in-the-closet son. It's side splitting funny and ...
Road House (Fox Film Noir)
Ida Lupino

Cornel Wilde
20th Century Fox, 2008
This film sizzles with emotion -- desire, jealousy, hatred..
The plot is basically a triangle -- Cornel Wilde and Richard Widmark are both in love with lounge singer Ida Lupino. Widmark's character is well-off and owns the road house that his old pal Cornel Wilde manages for him. If Widmark can't win Lupino's heart, he's ...

Great Movie!
The Beatles are wonderful in this movie. It is fast paced and very funny. One has to pay attention to the dialogue to get the jokes and they are gems. The extras are good too. A lot of fun!

Arsenic and Old Lace
Cannot go wrong with Cary Grant in this crazy comedy. Love to watch it during Halloween. The old ladies are too much fun. Highly recommend.

Billy Gray
20th Century Fox, 2003
Excellent Sci-Fi
Some reviewers say this is dated but then again so is Star Wars. Here you get above average acting and an intelligent script. Now that is dated! Still most of the credit should go to Robert Wise the director and the fantastic cinematography. What beautiful lighting ...

As Time Goes By . . .
. . . This film simply gets better and better. How can it miss with such a cast? Not only Humphrey Bogart as Rick and Ingrid Bergman as Ilse, but also the ensemble group of minor characters. Who can forget oily-voiced Peter Lorre smuggling the letters of transit? Or ...
