John Turturro

Jeff Bridges, John Goodman

Gramercy Pictures, 1999

One of the funniest movies.
The Big Lebowski is great. And who wouldn't want it in a bowling ball? If you want a movie that gets funnier every time you watch it, this is for you.

Tales of Erotica

Sharon Angela, Hetty Baynes

Vidmark / Trimark, 1997

Wet RULES!!
The movie was pretty much a dud until the final one "Wet". WOW! They saved the best short film for last! Cynda is incredibly gorgeous and the camera didn't miss her beautiful body. It was tastefully done and it didn't go overboard with exploitation. The eye popping ...

Mo Better Blues

Rubén Blades, Raye Dowell

Universal Studios, 1992

Bleek House
Bleek Gilliam (Denzel Washington) plays trumpet and leads his own jazz band. Giant (Spike Lee), his manager, doesn't do such a great job, and he has a gambling problem, but they have been friends since childhood. Shadow Henderson (Wesley Snipes) plays soprano and tenor ...

The Color Of Money

Robert Agins, Alvin Anastasia

Touchstone / Disney, 2002

A great sequel
A sequel of sorts of Newman's 1960 THE HUSTLER, and a great one. Newman, long out of the pool game now, but still unable to forget it, finds Tom Cruise shooting the daylights out of the game one night and talks the brash young kid into going on the road and becoming a ...

Gung Ho (1986)

Michael Keaton, Gedde Watanabe

Paramount, 1991

A timeless comedy for all generations!
This has been one of our families all time favorites. It's not only funny, but it's touching as well. It's as relevant socially today as when it was made. Some of the humor is subtle and so it should be viewed more than once. This movie is a classic and we feel is ...

Rounders (1998)

Matt Damon, Edward Norton

Walt Disney Video, 1999

Great Casino Movie!
A great Casino movie with a great cast! Gives a lesson to be learned! This is truly a classic!

O Brother Where Art Thou

George Clooney, John Turturro

Buena Vista Pictures, 2001

One of the funniest movies of all time.
This Movie is great on so many levels. The writing is hillarious and casting is spot on. Clooney's character is great. The music is great. I just don't know how to praise it any more. I've watched the movie multiple times and still laugh out loud every time. Thats why ...

Fearless

Jeff Bridges, Isabella Rossellini

Warner Home Video, 1995

Better DVD on the way??
As is true for many of the people who wrote here, for me, seeing FEARLESS in its original, very short-term theatrical release was literally a stunning experience. It is one of those films that one finishes watching, and then walks back out into the sunlight (or the ...

To Live and Die in L.A.

William Petersen, Willem Dafoe

In the dark of the night/Every time I turn the light/I feel God is not in Heaven...
Hang on to your hats, folks, this movie is genre revisionism with a vengeance. William Friedkin's 1985 take on the Rogue Cop movie, made at the genre's high tide (between "48 Hours" and "Lethal Weapon," while Stallone and Shwarzenegger were churning out programmers ...

Being Human

Robin Williams, Maudie Johnson

Warner Home Video, 1995

under rated
"Being Human" is one of those movies you either hate or you love. For some it is slow and the historical vignettes uninteresting. I, personally, find the storytelling thread does an excellent job of interconnecting the five time periods covered (pre-history, ancient ...

The Search for One-Eye Jimmy

Holt McCallany, Michael Badalucco

Cabin Fever Entertainment Inc., 1997

Excels at off beat humor
I initially chose ths video because of the many character actors involved, who I love. I was surprised how well they all played their parts to contribute to this quirky hilarious movie. If you have certain friends who share your type of humor and play on words and ...

Secret Window (Dol Slip)

Johnny Depp, John Turturro

Sony Pictures, 2004

Awesome
I ordered this DVD and three days later I had it. I'm very satisfied with this company. I would recommend them to everyone. Awesome job!!!

Men of Respect

John Turturro, Katherine Borowitz

Sony Pictures, 1994

A brilliant reworking--don't listen to the "experts"
John Turturro pulls out all stops here in this gangster version of Macbeth in the 'title' role (Michael Battaglia), ably complemented by his real-life wife, Katharine Borowitz as Lady Macbeth/Mrs. Battaglia. Also contributing with great performances are Rod Steiger as ...

Clockers

Lawrence B. Adisa, Lisa Arrindell Anderson

Universal Studios, 1996

fine, taut drama with social commentary
Clockers gave Martin Scorsese and Spike Lee the chance to collaborate on a project that became a brilliant motion picture. Clockers examines the gritty, brutal life on the streets that sometimes offers the only hope for millions of underprivileged African-American men ...

Quiz Show

John Turturro, Rob Morrow

Walt Disney Video, 1997

TIP OF THE ICEBERG
Considering the quality of this film, one would think that it should have won more awards,more acclaim. One factor might have been that anyone under the age of 46 in 1994 would have had little or no recollection of the television scandals which "broke" in 1959. ...
