Champion (1949)
Kirk Douglas, Marilyn Maxwell
Republic Pictures, 1998
Douglas a champion in this role
Kirk Douglas was marvelous in creating a signature role in his portrayal of boxer and eventual champion Midge Kelly in the hard hitting, gritty 1949 flick "Champion". Based on a story by the revered author Ring Lardner, the movie chronicles the rise and inevitable ...

Kid Galahad
Elvis Presley; Gig Young; Lola Albright; Joan Blackman; Charles Bronson
MGM (Video & DVD), 1997
Kid Galahad - Elvis
Okay! It's a cheesy Elvis film but I saw it in the movie theater as a child and always loved it when it was rerun on TV. It contains one of my all-time favorite songs "Home Is Where The Heart Is". I bought the 45 sized 33&1/3 rpm soundtrack soon after seeing it in the ...

Where Were You When Lights Went Out
Lola Albright, Steve Allen
MGM (Warner), 1993
When is this going to be released on DVD ????
When is this title going to be released on DVD??. It's frustrating to see almost every OTHER Doris Day movie now out on DVD, why not this title?. I LOVE this movie and have watched it over 80 times. It seems like it's always the GOOD STUFF that never gets re-rleased on ...

Way West
Kirk Douglas, Robert Mitchum
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
Way Great....
Great western, Kirk Douglas plays a ego-maniac hell bent on getting to Oregon at any cost. Widmark is in a typical role and Bob Mitchum is so laid back you'd think he was smoking his favorite herb throughout the filming.

Monolith Monsters
Lola Albright, Grant Williams
Universal Studios, 1996
So Where's The DVD??
Enough with the "science" of the Monolith Monsters!! Who cares if it's goofy science, bad geology or whatever (like "The Day After Tomorrow" or "Deep Impact" is any more realistic)! This is a great movie, with decent special effects and a truly fun story. This movie is ...

Easter Parade
Judy Garland, Fred Astaire
MGM (Video & DVD), 1992
An emblematic cast!
Taking into account you are going to see 17 Irving Berlin's tunes, plus the first-rate cast Judy Garland and Fred Astaire, you may even forget the plot.
An unforgettable musical.

Vanguard Cinema, 2003
A bloody tale of irony!
Rene Clement was one of the supreme French filmmakers of his generation and found in Alain Delon (don' t forget his previous collaboration in that cult movie "Purple noon") personage to express the contradictions of a handsome guy who is chased and decides to seek ...

Peter Gunn
Craig Stevens, Lola Albright
Bridgestone Group Inc, 1997
one of the coolest detective series ever made.
If I had to compare Craig Stevens' suave demeanor as Peter Gunn with any contemporary actor of today that actor would be Pierce Brosnan. Peter Gunn had a style all it's own from the clothes that the character wore to the incidental music and lighting of the show ...

Lord Love A Duck
Roddy McDowall, Tuesday Weld
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
Flawed, Highly Recommended
Hey-hey-hey! This "crazy" film helped me stay sane. KTLA TV in Los Angeles used to play it on a semi-regular basis in the bleary-eyed hours of the morning. That's when Lord Love a Duck first did its magic and made me see the light. Of course, since then, it's been ...
