A Fun Time With Bud and Lou
This very fun and funny offering from Bud and Lou ranks as one of their best. A great cast and good story, along with two very nice numbers from the Andrew Sisters make Bud and Lou's third entry from 1941 a pure delight. When Bud and Lou lose their good jobs as waiters ...

Mister Roberts
Henry Fonda, James Cagney
Warner Home Video, 1998
One Of The Greats
Wonderful showcase for all actors envolved. What a splendiferous way to say goodbye to Powell and hello to Lemon - Fonda and Cagney don't hurt either.

Satan Bug
George Maharis, Richard Basehart
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
Where's the DVD?
I don't really care about the other opinions; I thought "The Satan Bug" was a taut thriller, and I enjoyed it a lot. It's always great to see any moment of Anne Francis, the wonderful actress who left us WAY too soon. I would like to see DVDs of the "Honey West" ...

Man of La Mancha
Peter O'Toole, Sophia Loren
MGM (Warner), 1999
As good today as so many years ago.
I really like being able to get just about anything on DVD. This classic is a good example. Now if they'd just put "No Highway in the Sky" on DVD I'd be a happy camper-but I'm on the wait list.
I highly recommend this DVD. It brings back poignant memories for me ...

Devil's Disciple (1959)
Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
The Devil Gets His Own
This classy film mixes fact and fiction. Bernard Shaw's take on the American Revolution has all the smart touches that we associate with his plays with some scant reference to history thrown in. What makes this movie a hit are the three great actors who are all in ...

Abbott & Costello: Buck Privates
Bud Abbott, Lou Costello
Universal Studios, 1992
Funny and Fun
The Army has never been so much fun as when Bud and Lou sign up for their Uncle Sam. Made to capitalize on their sudden popularity, a fine cast and breezy tone overcome the slight premise and give the boys an opportunity for some of their most hilarious gags. Add the ...

Hilarious
Ever since I saw this movie as a kid I enjoyed the humor in it. My wife bought it for me again and I watched it for the first time in years recently and still to this day the humor is there. Dean Martin, and his indian companion, along with the commanche indians ...

Superman the Movie
Vass Anderson, Harry Andrews
Warner Home Video, 1994
Original and Still the Best
Even if you compare this movie to today's superhero movies such as Iron Man or The Dark Knight, you would enjoy this movie more. There is a more human element to this and this is in part due to great writers and phenomenal actors. The problem with most superhero ...

The Medusa Touch
Richard Burton, Lino Ventura
Avid Home Ent, 1998
Burton is a brooding ,sensual anti-hero for the masses.
This is the film that got me interested in Burton. I first saw it on British television many years ago,and Burtons portrayal of an intelligent, but massively tortured man is reminiscent of his own life.He had a "gift" which would ultimately tear him apart.This film is ...

Kisses for My President (B&W)
Fred MacMurray, Polly Bergen
Warner Home Video, 1998
Great period piece of a simpler time.
Kisses For My President, though horribly dated, is a fun romp in the tradition of Doris Day and James Garner. As much fun to watch as a Dialing-For-Dollars movie, the rampant sexism is so innocent, you can't help but enjoy it, especially held up against today's world ...
