Bill Murray, Owen Wilson

Miramax Home Entertainment, 2005

DVD
I like Bill Murry but this movie was a bomb. Good price and fast service. Will shop again and would recommend to anyone.

Missing Link

Peter Elliott (II), Michael Gambon

Universal Home Video, 1989

This is a moody and moving film about the death of innocence
Missing Link was never meant to be an "action" movie; the cover apparently misled the previous reviewer. It is an excellent film, beautifully acted by the one lone character who appears in it. It is a posssible scenario for the extinction of early pre-hominids by ...

Squanto: A Warrior's Tale

Adam Beach, Sheldon Peters Wolfchild

Walt Disney Video, 1997

Excellent movie
I showed this dvd to my students for Native American month and Thanksgiving. They really enjoyed it! It teaches very good morals to them.

Open Range (2003)

Patricia Benedict, Annette Bening

Walt Disney Video, 2004

WOW! A tribute to the golden age of westerns.
This is by far one of the top 10 of all western movies. I rank it with The Searchers, Shane, High Noon. A cinematic treat from somber start to the explosive yet tender end. Eat your heart out OK Corral. This is what is missing from so many modern movies. A story that ...

A Man of No Importance

Albert Finney, Brenda Fricker

Sony Pictures, 1996

importance is subjective
This debut from Suri Krishnamma is quite wonderful. Set in Dublin in 1963, it opens with Eartha Kitt singing "Let's Do it" and Albert Finney reading Oscar Wilde, so we know something particular is in the wind. Finney is a bus conductor who is inspired to mount a ...

The Wind in the Willows

Alan Bennett, Michael Palin

Good Times Video, 2001

DVD Wind in the Willow/The Willows in Winter
This has to be my all time favorite DVD far better than other productions of this I have viewed. Absolutely delightful to watch for people of all ages - it's a keeper that you can watch over and again!

Samson & Delilah (1996) (2pc)

Elizabeth Hurley, Michael Gambon

Turner Home Ent, 1997

Better than Average Biblical Drama
TNT produced a wonderful series of Old Testament dramas. All are good but some are better than others. This one falls somewhere in the middle. Samson is a child gifted with superhuman strength. He is an Israelite and his people are under the thumb of the ...

Forbidden Passion: Oscar Wilde - The Movie

Michael Gambon, Emily Richard

Lions Gate/Trimark Home Ent., 1988

Forbidden Passion: Oscar Wilde
Forbidden Passion is a biography of the life and times of Oscar Wilde, a playwright and poet, and an advocate for the Aesthetic Movement in England. He believed strongly that art should be appreciate for the beauty of art. He also discovered his passions ran deeply ...

Art of Conducting: Great Conductors of the Past

Isaac Stern, George Szell

Elektra / Wea, 1994

A real treasure for any music-lover
In this video the director Sue Knussen painstakingly assembles a great variety of materials (concerts, vintage and contemporary interviews, rehearsal sessions) so creating ,at the same time, a tribute to the golden-age conductors and a panoramic view of this ...

Mobsters

Christian Slater, Costas Mandylor

Universal Studios, 1993

Mobsters
This movie is one of the more realistic movies to date. It is more of a biography of a man that is not as well known as Al Capone from Chicago. Not only he created a organized commission of all mob families which is not part of this movie, he was also was a patriot ...

The Heat of the Day (Masterpiece Theatre)

Grant Parsons, Patricia Hodge

Starz / Anchor Bay, 1997

This is a very suspenseful film with outstanding acting.
This film stars Patricia Hodge, one of England's most beautiful and competent actresses, and Michael Gambon, one of the greats. Michael York plays a pivotal role but the film really belongs to Hodge and Gambon. I have been trying to secure a copy for my own library to ...

Sylvia (Full Slip)

David Birkin, Alison Bruce

Universal Studios, 2004

A disservice to Sylvia
I'd have given this movie 3 stars if it weren't for the brilliant performances of its cast. Despite an unforgettable portrayal from Gwyneth Paltrow of a haunted, tormented soul in a performance that is almost disturbing, the film glossed over Sylvia Plath's ...

The Last September

Michael Gambon, Tom Hickey

Vidmark / Trimark, 2000

"There are occasions when it is better to be ignorant."
Atmospheric and beautifully photographed, The Last September, based on the 1929 novel by Elizabeth Bowen, takes place in Cork in 1920, at the beginning of the Irish Rebellion. Lord Richard Naylor (Michael Gambon) and his wife Myra (Maggie Smith), are the Anglo-Irish ...

Wings of the Dove (1997)

Helena Bonham Carter, Linus Roache

Walt Disney Video, 1999

Moody, elegant, perfect!
Not being a fan of Helena Bonham Carter, costume dramas, or Henry James, I purchased this DVD because it featured Venice. Now I can't wait to see it again. I was completely riveted. The growing sense of tension,as Kate manipulates circumstances to suit her own ends, ...

Bullet to Beijing

Anatoly Kulbitsky, Shaughan Seymour

Paramount, 2001

underrated, enjoyable and a sting in the tail
A believable glimpse into the self-serving British beauracracy and the modern Russia. Caine is Caine - superb. The younger Connery is obviously going places. An informative romp through Russia with subtle nuances and ultimate treachery in store. Well worth the few ...
