Big Robby Benson fan!
I was so delighted to see that this Robby Benson movie was at least available on VHS and that some copies were available on Amazon. Benson would be about my age these days having come from my generation. I was equally shy and as sensitive, in his portrayals, when ...
Naked Edge (1961)
Gary Cooper
, Deborah Kerr
MGM (Warner), 1998
Bizarre
The film focuses too much on a miscast, cadaverous Gary Cooper. Deborah Kerr's character is interesting, but she looks bored throughout most of the film. Eric Portman is delightfully evil and sinister. You will never view bathtubs or razors the same way after the ...

From Here to a Classic
From Here to Eternity is more than the classic scene of Deborah Kerr and Burt Lancaster rolling around on a beach, covered in ocean waves. It's a story about America during World War II. It's about human beings trying to live normal lives during an abnormal time. ...

Food for Thought
A previous reviewer noted that the film was basically a platform to expound on George Bernard Shaw's views on munitions, war and other issues of the day, and rated it with one star. I found that Shaw's social views, brilliantly elucidated by Robert Morley in a ...

Hayley Mills
Universal Studios, 1992
Poignant Drama With Intrigue And Humor
Enid Bagnold's play, directed for the big screen by Ronald Neame in 1964, is a touching story about a mystery woman, Madrigal (Deborah Kerr) who answers an ad for a companion for a teenage girl. But this is no prim and proper young English lady - Laurel (Hayley Mills) ...
Hucksters
Clark Gable
, Deborah Kerr
MGM (Warner), 1998
Absorbing drama
"The Hucksters" is a refreshingly adult drama with themes that resonate even today. Clark Gable plays an advertising agent (a "huckster") who is basically a decent man, but who finds himself increasingly compromising his principles in order to satisfy a despotic soap ...

60's cool at its finest
While technically a comedy, what sets this film apart is its inherent coolness - its beautiful cinematography, crazy set-pieces, and wonderful moments all work together to... Well, okay, it's a mess. But it's a beautiful mess. And it stands as one of the finest ...
Quo Vadis (1951)
Robert Taylor
, Deborah Kerr
MGM (Video & DVD), 1995
Extra Features for the Nov. 2008 release are announced
This biblical epic has Peter Ustinov giving the definitive performance of the emperor Nero, in spite of the motion picture code. But then, it seems they were always relaxing that motion picture code back in the 40's and 50's as long as it was for a biblical epic of ...

MGM (Warner), 1998
King Solomon's Mines
King Solomon's Mines is truly one the best movies about Africa. The scenery is spectacular. The story seemed to be a never-ending confrontation with wild animals however it was interesting to see the the variety. The native tribes were also interesting, especially the ...

Count on the Captain for educational fun
This video is similar to a regular Captain Kangaroo show, with Mr Moose and Bunny Rabbit and lots of ping pong balls interspersed with video/musical clips or scenes with cute animals illustrating numbers 1-10. Fun for preschool kids. My kids like it (though not not ...

"I defy you! Shannon defies you! Get out your tomahawks!""
I love this movie. I check it out of the public library every chance I get. I need it. It refreshes me. First of all, think of all the heavyweight talents involved in this movie. ... John Huston -- arguably the best director of his time. ... Deborah ...

The spirit of the play brought to life
I have been raised on this play and saw many versions. I have had the real story pointed out to me and meaning behind many of the words explained. However it is this adaptation that brought it to life not just intellectually but emotionally. One of the first things ...
Heaven Knows Mr Allison
Deborah Kerr,
Robert Mitchum
20th Century Fox, 1997
Great story! (Allison Crusoe and Angela Friday versus the Japanese)
African Queen is one of my favorite movies ever, and Bogie and Hepburn as Charlie and Rosie were the best film couple ever. Here, Huston adapts the Allnut story to a Robinson Crusoe set up in WW2 in the South Pacific. Kerr can't quite carry Sister Angela to the level ...
