When I read this book and saw the movie as a teenager, it scared me to death to think how easy it would have been to topple our government. ...             Bhowani Junction Ava Gardner, Stewart Granger MGM (Warner), 1994 A sign of the times While this movie may not be historically accurate, it stands out for two reasons.

Despite what others have said about this DVD, the excellent quality of the video itself makes it a "5".

I used a 1080p hi-def TV and a blu-ray 1080p ...             Mogambo Clark Gable, Ava Gardner MGM (Warner), 1994 Gable Rules as Ford Looks On Great to have MOGAMBO on DVD. It looks good. Not your usual John Ford film from my view. Clark Gable is the man and really he seems to have more effect on the look of this film. Good loves story flows tailored for Gable no doubt. Good one in all.             One Touch of Venus Robert Walker, Ava Gardner Republic Pictures, 1998 Wonderful Comedy! A delightful romantic fantasy made even more so by Eve Arden as the wise-cracking secretary. This was, seemingly, the "inspiration" for the so-so 1987 movie, MANNEQUIN. Stick with the original! You won't be disappointed.             Lone Star (1951) Clark Gable, Ava Gardner MGM (Warner), 1998 How can a movie with Ava Gardner not be a hit. Gable is hired to bring Texas into the union.
