Ray Milland, Jean Peters

20th Century Fox, 1994

Original and still fresh comedy!
A devoted chemistry scientist suddenly discovers that a special compound makes the baseballs react strangely with the bats. That finding will leap him immediately from the lab to the baseball field becoming a great pitcher. One of the most enjoyable funny and ...

My Foolish Heart

Dana Andrews, Susan Hayward

Hbo Home Video, 1995

Never forget it!!
I saw this movie on t.v. only once.... approximately 25 years ago.. And to this day I remember it as if it were just yesterday! It is one of my all time favorite movies.. it had it all... and whenever talking about old movies I ALWAYS tell people about that one!

To Catch a Thief

Georgette Anys, Brigitte Auber

Paramount, 1998

Really Great Alfred Hitchcock!
This is a light Hitchcock movie, probably not one of his greatest, but pretty close! The film does not focus on murder or mayhem or even tragedy. It is all about stealing jewels! If you thought that jewel thieves were interesting, this is your movie. If not, here ...

Goodbye Again

Ingrid Bergman, Yves Montand

MGM (Video & DVD), 1994

From Paris, with love
Put on your pjs, make the popcorn, and settle back for one superb chick-flick! Ingrid Bergman stars as a sophisticated Parisian who has had an "understanding" with Yves Montand for five years. The understanding is she's madly in love with and faithful to him; he's ...

North by Northwest - Special Edition (Widescreen)

Ed Binns, Leo G. Carroll

Turner Home Ent, 2000

Is this Roger Thornhill or Bond, James Bond?
This 1959 Alfred Hitchcock film was the fourth and last "spy" film that he did with Cary Grant. The others are Suspicion (1941), Notorious (1946), and To Catch a Thief (1955). I realize that Hitchcock was a close friend of Albert Broccoli (James Bond films)and Cary ...

The Swan

Grace Kelly, Alec Guinness

MGM (Warner), 1994

To glide like a Swan or To waddle like a Goose
When I bought the video by accident, I was expecting a cliche-type of movie. The kind of sugary set-ups Hollywood dishes to its innocent 1950's audience. But as the movie progressed, this assumption was immediately put in doubt. Halfway through it, I was so ...

Airport

Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin

Good Times Home Video, 1998

The Original "Disaster" Movie.
Jean Seberg isn't real convincing, but then again she wasn't that great of an actress. Everyone else; superb. Still 5 stars.

My Man Godfrey

June Allyson, David Niven

Universal Studios, 1994

Great fun
A dysfunctional but seemingly wealthy family takes in a new butler of dubious background. In return the butler saves the family in more ways than one. (This is a comedy) If this movie had tried to keep to the same script as the original, It would not have worked. ...

Boys' Night Out

Kim Novak, James Garner

MGM (Warner), 1994

It beats the 11:35
Fred, Doug, George, and Howie (James Garner, Howard Duff, Tony Randall, and Howard Morris) Share the commuter train daily to and from work. On Wednesdays they spend the night at Slattery's bar, away from home and family, until the 11:35 commuter train. Fred's boss ...

Gidget Goes to Rome

James Darren, Jessie Royce Landis

Sony Pictures, 1994

Gidget Was Here, In The Eternal City!
While this is nowhere near the best "Gidget" film, it is entertaining in its own right. Cindy Carol(whatever happened to her?)doesn't hold a candle to Sandra Dee and Deborah Walley (both RIP), but she does have spunky personality to spare. James Darren, impeccably ...

The Ceremony of Innocence (Broadway Theatre Archive)

Richard Kiley, Jessie Royce Landis

Kultur Video, 2002

Brilliant portrayal of medieval politics...
Here's another fine installment from the Broadway Theatre Archive. As usual, there are no extras on the disc, but in this case, the feature more than makes up for it. "The Ceremony of Innocence," originally a play by Ronald Ribman, is presented here in a 1972 ...
