Masterpiece........
Firstly let me point out that there is a DVD version of EOD, several actually. The best version is the latest released this year which is a wonderful transfer and includes a documentary on the film, Magnox and has clips of interviews and award ceremonies and ...

A Christmas Carol

Richard E. Grant, Joel Grey

Turner Home Ent, 2000

Magic of Christmas
Not many christmas films add that magic of emotion,Patrick Stewart`s role as Scrooge is an inspired performance.It seems this adaption is true to Dicken`s novel,an amazing fusion of special effects and christmas wonder to meaningful characters that have universal ...

Beautician & Beast

Fran Drescher, Timothy Dalton

Paramount, 1998

Beautician and the Beast
This movie is a family favorite. We've watched it so much on VHS that we had to get a DVD. PG rated, it's a comedy about a ruler from a land of tyrants and a hairdresser from Queens, New York. Fran Drescher is hilarious and though Timothy Dalton starts out a little ...

Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls

Jim Carrey, Ian McNeice

Warner Home Video, 1997

I loved it when i was a little kid
Ok I just dug up an old video of this movie and memories came floating back. When i was like 7 or 8 my parents bought the movie (oblivious to the rating) and i watched it again and again. Oh and after i watched it every time i started talking like him. Man when i ...

P.D. James - A Certain Justice

Roy Marsden, Penny Downie

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1999

As usual a smash hit.
This is a great movie. As usual P. D. James' characters (all of them) are well crafted. The actors are well cast (as usual in almost anything from England). The story grabs you and holds you until the end. The people who make decisions for American TV should be ...

84 Charing Cross Road

Anne Bancroft, Anthony Hopkins

Sony Pictures, 1995

NO SEX, NO VIOLENCE YET STILL COMPELLING & DRAMATIC
This is a deeply touching movie about a long-term frienship between booklovers stunningly enacted by the gifted Anne Bancroft and the amazingly young and handsome Anthony Hopkins. Anne Bancroft can really make an audience appreciate the writer's craft and how ...

Year of the Comet

Penelope Ann Miller, Tim Daly

Columbia/Tri-Star, 1993

"I can't believe we're doing all this for a beverage."
Tim Daly seems to be known more for his moments on television than for his ventures into motion picture. He really just doesn't have a lot of defining roles in cinema. In the small screen, he starred memorably in WINGS and then, more recently, in the very short lived ...

Valmont

Colin Firth, Annette Bening

M G M, Inc

A warm, pleasent yet a seductive story never fails to take the viewer all the way back to its time!
Beautifull costumes and sets are usually what are found in films depicting the 18th century France. A perfect cast and moreover every single individual delivers a sattisfying performence. Brilliant performeces by Colin Firth, Annette Benning and Meg Tilly. Meg Tilly's ...

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat

Donny Osmond, Maria Friedman

Universal Studios, 2000

As Amazing as Claimed
I saw the musical on Broadway several years ago, and I have to say that the film does an excellent job of capturing the engery of a live performance. The cast is superb, the music is still fresh, the jokes are still funny, and the layers of reality are done exttremely ...

The Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne

Maggie Smith, Bob Hoskins

Starmaker Entertainment, 1997

Great performance!
Maggie Smiths is phenomenal! Her portrayal of the lonely spinster Judith Hearne is impeccable. The scene where she drinks alone is really heartbreaking. Bob Hoskins is equally good as James Madden who broke her heart due to mutual misunderstanding. In fact, there is ...

Frank Herbert's Dune (TV Miniseries)

William Hurt, Alec Newman

Live / Artisan, 2001

Nice Quality!
The price for this movie made me go "hmmm". I thought it was a joke or that the movie was so badly scratched that it would never be capable of playing again, but ,alas, this movie was in great condition as was the packaging and the integrity of the seller. Well sold!

The Cherry Orchard

Charlotte Rampling, Alan Bates

Kino Video, 2003

The Cherry Orchard
I enjoyed the DVD, as I have never seen The Cherry Orchard before. I only wish that Gerard Butler would have had a bigger role. As a big fan of Gerard Butler I have seen almost all his movies more than once and will most likely watch the Cherry Orchard again.

The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill

Hugh Grant, Tara Fitzgerald

Walt Disney Video, 1996

A great story
I have actually also read the book, which tells you something aboutthe impact this movie had upon me. In it Monger points out one of the great ironies of the story- the man with the longest and most enigmatic nickname did not need one: The Englishman Who Went Up a ...
