Bobby Darin

Bobby Darin, Jerry Leiber

A&E Home Video, 2001

Good intro Bio for Bobby Darin - for fans or fans to be
One of the two great Bobby Darin bios (the other being PBS's Beyond the Song). This one is totally different, and features more comments from friends and family than Beyond the Song which focuses more on interviews with fellow celebrities. I especially like the ...

Fear of a Black Hat

Reggie Bruce, Jeff Burr

Fox Home Entertainment, 1995

The best mockumentary ever
Rusty Cundieff provides masterful satire in this biting, funny mockumentary of a hip hop band. "Fear of a Black Hat" goes where "Spinal Tap" fears to tread. It takes on cultural commodication, patriarchy and Black machismo in ways that are both smart and absolutely ...

Run Stranger, Run

Ron Applegate, Kathie Browne

Sony Pictures Home E, 1989

Strange Runner
Originally titled "Happy Mother's Day, Love George", this very intriguing tale stars Ron Howard as John. John's problem is he has just arrived to a quiet fishing village to find the family that abandoned him and does find a mother who refuses to tell him about his ...

Hell Is for Heroes

Steve McQueen, Bobby Darin

Paramount, 1998

McQueen carries it
The guy was a far better film actor than some of us realized way back then. The ending definitely stays with you. Not a great war film, not a bad one either. As someone else stated, perhaps a minor classic. Makes you want to look at other things McQueen was in.

State Fair

Pat Boone, Bobby Darin

Fox Home Entertainment, 1988

Pat Boone Rules!!Where Are His Other Movies?!!
Pat Boone rules in this great musical co-starring Anne Margaret.It's unfortunate though that his other movie musicals etc fron the 1950's and 60's have never been released on video such as Bernardine-1957,Mardi Gras-1958,April Love-1957,All Hands on Deck-1961,The Main ...

Happy Ending (1969)

Jean Simmons, John Forsythe

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

vodka straight up and marriage on the rocks
Though this film was made in 1969, it is a portrait of many contemporary women, who are drowning in a sea of their emotions, and letting the awareness of their feelings supersede a rational appraisal of their situation, ending with the use of alcohol/pills to "manage" ...

Captain Newman MD

Gregory Peck, Tony Curtis

Universal Studios, 1992

Just what the doctor ordered
This is a really enjoyable movie with good performances. I don't think they could get a cast like this together nowadays withount conflict on the set. Gregory Peck is as good as ever playing the title role. Tony Curtis is hilarious in a suuporting part. Angie ...

Come September

Rock Hudson, Gina Lollobrigida

Universal Studios, 1996

Summer breeze keeps coming in September
Robert Talbot (Rock Hudson) visits his beautiful villa in July instead of his regular trips that comes in September. His girlfriend Lisa Fellini (Gina Lollobrigida) has given up waiting for him and has decided to marry an Englishman named Spencer (Ronald Howard). ...

Pepe

Cantinflas, Dan Dailey

Film Mex Entertainment Inc., 1998

marcoaguilera
I consider that "Pepe" is a very good film. I have seen it at least 4 times, but it was long time ago. I would like to have it in DVD version.

Bobby Darin and Friends (Jan. 31, 1961-USA)

Bobby Darin, Joannie Summers

Not great but any Darin video is worth having
I gave this video more stars than it actually deserves because of my bias toward Darin. It is, after all, this superstars first US TV special - the youngest star at the time to have his own special - so it's noteworthy. But it's not a great show and Darin's lack of ...

Darin Invasion

Bobby Darin

View Video, 1991

For hard core Darin fans only
This is for die-hard Darin fans because he was deathly ill during taping of this special; in fact he collapsed backstage and had to have emergency medical care for his heart condition. He barely survived and had his first open heart surgery shortly after, surviving on ...
