Jack Benny

Julie Bennett, Benny Rubin

Sony Pictures, 1997

Thank you Amazon!
I had cast this movie as lost forever...I used to watch this over and over as a kid and I was afraid I would never find it anywhere! Well along came Amazon and there it was, at a great price too! My kids had never heard of Mr Magoo and now they think it's so funny. ...

Goldie Hawn, Jack Benny

Garrison Packaging Passe'
Okay, first of all, I just would like to offer a bit of encouragement to all of those from the so-called 'greatest generation'. Please STOP STOP STOP gushing about the 'good old days' & a 'simpler time' & 'how comedy was so clean', WILL YOU? Do you have any freaking ...

Standing in Shadows of Motown

Richard 'Pistol' Allen, Jack Ashford

Live / Artisan, 2003

Absolutely outstanding!
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever seen, musical or otherwise. (I admit to a strong bias, growing up madly in love with the music these gentlemen produced.) The historic, biographical, and concert footage here assembled brings these long-unsung musical ...

Horn Blows at Midnight

Jack Benny, Alexis Smith

MGM (Warner), 1993

Absolutely a classic!
I've loved this gem of a comedy since I was a kid, and nothing else makes me feel better than dusting it off and watching it again with fresh eyes. Sharing the experience with friends seeing it for the first time is a particular joy, since many have never seen this ...

George Washington Slept Here

Jack Benny, Ann Sheridan

MGM (Video & DVD), 1992

Jewel of Jack Benny
I loved Jack Benny's performances. I won't go into all the antic of the film, the other review capped a few for you. This movie is charming and funny. It is a seldom seen film and wish this was on DVD. Please someone get this on DVD!

Designing Woman

Gregory Peck, Lauren Bacall

MGM (Warner), 1994

The Original Sex and the City
In this film, Lauren Bacall hilariously portrays the quintessential high-society, high-fashion New Yorker. While on a trip to Beverly Hills, she meets and spontaneously marries the wonderful Gregory Peck - an unassuming sports writer who has no idea exactly what he's ...

No Time for Sergeants

Andy Griffith, Nick Adams

Warner Home Video, 1994

One of my ALL-TIME favorite comedies!
Having served in the Air Force myself, from 1977 to 1997, I can relate to alot of the situations in this movie. Early on, I did many stints as PLO myself ... we called them "GI Parties." The induction scenes in this movie are pretty much the same as they were when ...

The Apartment

Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine

MGM (Video & DVD), 1997

STILL GREAT AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
I am reviewing the new collector's edition DVD for this film. The film itself is a true classic and still holds up beautifully. Jack Lemmon is in fine form as well as the entire cast. The print looks great on this edition and there are a couple of very good extras. One ...

To Be Or Not to Be

Carole Lombard, Jack Benny

Warner Home Video, 1994

a true underrated classic.......
I am a great fan of one of the rightful kings of comedy, the late, great Jack Benny. He is featured at his wry best, here, along with the stunningly beautiful Carole Lombard--the last film she made before she tragically died in a plane crash. The title is based on ...

Hollywood Canteen

Laverne Andrews, Maxene Andrews

MGM (Warner), 1998

HOLLYWOOD CANTEEN
Having been fortunate to have been SERVED at "THE" canteen I have found this to be a true story of the canteen. True Robert Hutton's romance with Joan Leslie was not a fact, however, it gave us guys a sense of enjoying our many fantasies. This film was very ...

Princess Comes Across

Carole Lombard, Fred MacMurray

Universal Studios, 1995

The Delightful Lombard
The 1930's gave birth to a hybrid type of film which mixed comedy and mystery with a certain type of glamour. Carole Lombard and Fred MacMurray have fun in this splendid example of the genre fans will enjoy. Based on a story by Philip MacDonald adapted from a novel, ...
