Meet Me in Las Vegas [VHS]
Dan Dailey, Cyd Charisse

MGM (Warner), 1998

Cyd Charisse's custom-made vehicle a must-see for fans

+ What came first

This was the first (and really only) film written specifically as a star vehicle for Cyd Charisse and it is far and away the perfect film for her fans. While Cyd was always rather bland in her dramatic roles, in MMILV she shows an unexpected flair for knockabout comedy. The fantastic range of her ...

Two for the Seesaw [VHS]
Robert Mitchum, Shirley MacLaine

MGM (Video & DVD), 1992

Contains film greatness

+ Right cast in the Wrong script
+ For those who like film noir

Like Helen Morgan's "Applause", the film version of "Two For the Seesaw" gives its viewers a seldom seen look at the real theatre world of New York City in the 20th Century. This is a gritty, realistic love story on the cold, hard streets of New York that somehow is still able to show the real ...

Paris Blues

I LOVE this movie - was so happy to get it. Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward were either just married or about to get married, and so young and pretty together! Also a rare opportunity to see Diahnne Carrol(not spelled right) and Sidney Poitier so young also. Excellent jazz (Louis Armstrong plays ...

Paramount, 1998

Excellent portrait of a man seeking a goal, no matter what !

I related to this movie because I'm a musician. The movie takes through the life of a young man who loses everything in search of stardom. But when he finally attains it, to him, it was worth it...great movie, and I haven't seen it in 20 years. even though I'm not a Tony Franciosa fan, his ...
