The Elizabeth Gaskell Collection (Wives and Daughters / Cranford / North and South)
I had heard a little about Elizabeth Gaskell before. I knew that she had written the biography of Charlotte Bronte but that is all I knew about her. I had never read any of Mrs. Gaskell's books myself. Recently, I saw Cranford on PBS and decided to purchase the DVD of ...

"Belles on Their Toes" is an excellent sequel to "Cheaper by the Dozen"
"Belles on Their Toes" is an excellent sequel to "Cheaper by the Dozen" "Belles on Their Toes" picks up where the Gilbreth family left off in "Cheaper by the Dozen." While many sequels leave much to be desired this sequel is even better than the predecessor. In ...

Cash Back, blown away by this wonderful DVD Movie I think this movie, Cashback, may have come out back in 2006. Seemingly it had a very late release here in the states. I was truly blown away by this mesmerizingly wonderful movie. It had a great soundtrack, ...

Dumbo (Big Top Edition)

Edward Brophy, Sterling Holloway

Walt Disney Home Entertainment, 2006

Best Disney movie for toddlers
I have various Disney movies and this is the best one for toddlers as it does not contain the thematic and real violence of a Peter Pan, nor sibling bickering like in Cinderella nor a too-hip attitude. Instead it is innocent and very positive in its message of ...

Wives and Daughters

Meticulous!!!!
My review will be short but sweet ----This was an absolutely perfect show. From the village to the gorgeous manor houses, from the scenery to the writing, from the casting to the story.....it was just perfect. The BBC and Andrew Davies have done it again. I would not ...

To Have and Have Not (Keepcase)

Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan

Warner Home Video, 2006

On My Must-Have List
No, it's not CASABLANCA - that's kinda the point. It's a smaller, more precious version of essentially the same story line, and it's got Bogie falling head over heels for Bacall right in front of your eyes. Okay okay, so she doesn't sing that well - who needs singing ...

School for Scoundrels

Ian Carmichael, Terry-Thomas

Lions Gate, 2007

Hard Cheese, Old Man!
One of my all time favorite comedies. I first saw this, upon the recommendation of my late friend Larry Strayer, on late night television way back in my college years. Ian Carmichael plays the nice boy who always loses, Terry-Thomas plays the sophisticated upper ...

A Star Is Born

Judy Garland, James Mason

Warner Home Video, 2000

Garland's Shining Hour in a Pristine Print of Her Legendary Vehicle
Marked by a pervasive sense of melancholy, the 1954 musical version of the familiar Hollywood warhorse will forever be remembered as Judy Garland's most acclaimed work in films. Even though she would go on to a handful of films in the early 1960's, this was her last ...

Urban Works, 2004

This is an amazing movie.....
I don't know much about Huey P. Newton at all. Up to the point when i seen this movie, if you told me the mans name I would have had no idea who he was, but now I do. I saw this movie the first time on tv. I was channel surfing and I came across this movie. After ...

I'm All Right Jack

Ian Carmichael, Terry-Thomas

Starz / Anchor Bay, 2003

Any film that starts out in a Nudist Camp is all right Jack with me...
Recently elected into the British Cinema's Top 100 Films, I'm All Right Jack is a delight. I saw it on the big screen in 1960 (produced in 59), I remember being entrhralled by Liz Frasier in a tight sweater and how funny Ian Carmichael and Terry Thomas were and knocked ...
