Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry
Claudia McNeil, Janet MacLachlan
Live / Artisan, 1999
Review of Roll of Thunder
The video story had a good concept, a good plot showing events that were very realistic, but it left out key events such as the revenge of Cassie against Lilian Jean, how the blacks were treated in school, and the revenge of the Logan children getting back at the white ...

Schoolhouse Rock! - Multiplication Rock
Bob Dorough, Blossom Dearie
Walt Disney Video, 1997
A Schoolhouse Rock Testimonial
When I was in third grade I never could get my times tables down pat- the sevens and twelves proved especially tricky. So my mom checked out this video from the library, and that changed immediately. I could rattle off my multiplication tables as fast as everybody else ...

Princess Mononoke (Dub)
Yôji Matsuda, Yuriko Ishida
Miramax, 2001
My take on things.
This movie has been my favorite since I was about ten. It is very good, and I loved it since me and my brother watched it for the first time. I would get it at the library again, and again, well i got bored getting it there, so i decided to buy it, and im so glad ...

AM/PM Yoga for Beginners
This is the second copy of this video. The yoga is simply relaxing, soothing and provides stretches for many body areas.
The soothing voice of Rodney Yee and music provided is an added feature. Love it!

A Town Like Alice
Helen Morse, Bryan Brown
Starmaker Entertainment, 1992
One of my favorite movies
Oh! how I wish this was on DVD. I love this movie, and have watched it countless times. Some day my VHS tape will break and it won't be available anymore. Please put it on DVD!

Enchanted April (1991)
Josie Lawrence, Miranda Richardson
Paramount, 1994
Lowers blood pressure painlessly
We continue to await the DVD (in America) release of this instantly relaxing film. It quickly becomes a "comfort movie" like "White Christmas" and "Meet Me in St. Louis." Tougher than usual day? Get thee to Italy for a month(really just a couple of hours) with these ...

Somewhere in Time
Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour
Universal Studios, 1992
romance re visited
I don't know how many of us actually skip a heartbeat when the word romance is uttered- but in this movie, the only thing that you could feel unless you are dead is overwhelming romance and fantasy. Christoper Reeve is truly beautiful, with Jane Seymour capturing the ...

Swing Time
Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers
Turner Home Ent, 1999
La crème de la crème.
You cannot go wrong with any of the Fred and Ginger movies, but this one is la crème de la crème.
Why? As Eric Blore says, for the sheer heaven of the "Pick Yourself Up" number, as you watch their feet fly across the dance floor, with Fred in trademark formal ...

Elvis Meets Nixon
Rick Peters, Bob Gunton
Avalanche, 2002
"You can't make this up..."
Of course, most of it is an "artists impression", but based on what everyone knows about these two men with many eccentricities and very strong personalities. Bob Gunton does a great Dick Nixon and Rick Peters does a really good Elvis, minus the singing voice. The ...

Incredible Journey
Émile Genest, John Drainie
Walt Disney Video, 1994
The Original is Always Best
I hadn't seen this movie in a good 20 years. We rented the newer version for our 5 year old and were displeased with the way it was put together. The narration and animal "acting" in this one tell the story beautifully without smart-mouthed cats and farting dogs. My ...

Sweatin' to the Oldies 3: An Aerobic Concert with Richard Simmons
Richard Simmons
GoodTimes Home Video, 1993
I always come back to this one
I'm actually just 22 yrs old, but I have struggled with my weight all of my life and everyday of it. My appreciation for Richard Simmons began when I was a young child. My mom loves him and when the original Sweatin to the oldies came about, she and her sisters passed ...

Fist of Legend
Jet Li, Shinobu Nakayama
Walt Disney Video, 2000
Watch the version with subtitles only.....
NO DUBBING!!
Great movie, the male leads are awesome, excellent action scenes, fun in that old Shaw Brothers way, yet far more advanced fight choreography.
The play on words as Li is demolishing a schoolroom full of bullies is exquisite: "Chi-na"
A must own ...

Murder She Purred: A Mrs. Murphy Mystery
Ricki Lake, Linden Ashby
Walt Disney Video, 2001
I love it when animals help solve mysteries!
I had seen this movie several years ago (and actually have all of Rita Mae and Sneaky Pie Brown's "Mrs. Murphy Mystery" books) and couldn't wait to get a copy of it for my movie collection. Now I only wish that more of the Mrs. Murphy Mysteries would be put on film ...

The Long, Long Trailer
Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz
MGM (Warner), 1994
PLEASE put this hilarious classic on DVD!!
What a fantastic pairing of the classic Luci & Desi comedy team, even while "I Love Lucy" was still airing before live audiences. An initial fun point was the change of 'Lucy & Ricky' to 'Taci & Nicky'. Both my parents and I saw this aired on TV, and laughed so hard we ...

Ok, I love Disney. I am a 22 year-old male. I have no shame about the fact that I love these movies. They were a part of my childhood, so now I am buying them. It's just too bad I can't buy the Lion King brand-new because of that STUPID vault!!! Sure, Disney has ...

A Man for All Seasons
Paul Scofield, Wendy Hiller
Sony Pictures, 1994
An excellent lesson in integrity
I love this story, and this is a great portrayal. I teach the play in my English classes and it always fosters great discussions. The only misgiving I have is that Paul Scofield has such a typically dry British sense of humor that my students don't always realize how ...

I have used this series for a few years now and have had great success with it. Not just the old school compilation of talking heads, but an engaging, well-paced documentary. However, as others have said, I am getting concerned about its availability in the future when ...

Bryan Kest - Power Yoga 20 Minute Workout

I'm going to have to disagree with a previous reviewer who said that it wasn't clear that this was a beginners workout. It only says it on the cover - hello?! I love this video. I'm just learning Power Yoga, and always felt that the Power Yoga tapes that I have tried ...
