The Birds
Malcolm Atterbury, Veronica Cartwright
Universal City Studios, 1992
The ultimate pagan movie
A world where nature is out to destroy man and there is no salvation from any god. A world where jealousy, competition, and lust simmers below the surface. A world where three women compete for the affections of one apollo-like beauty of a man. A world where something ...

Glass Bottom Boat
This movie is comedy at its best! Doris Day and Rod Taylor make a great team. You never get tired of this classic. It is an old formula that works well.

Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson
Warner Bros. Pictures, 1996
the DVD of the movie, "Giant"
I really enjoyed watching once again the movie, "Giant." Equally as well I enjoyed the second disc which was largely comments from cast members and very interesting stories along with interesting shots of various things at the time when the movie was in production. I ...

Hotel
Rod Taylor, Catherine Spaak
Warner Home Video, 1996
Hotel - Where women are "ladies" and men are "gentlemen"
I love this movie! It's a wonderful escape back to an era when hospitality was in and everyone not only knew how, but were expected to "dress" (it makes me want to buy white gloves and hats just to do lunch). Catherine Spaak and Merle Oberon are luminous in Edith ...

A good movie for it's time and a good movie now. So much better than the cheesy remake.

Oklahoma!
Gordon MacRae, Gloria Grahame
20th Century Fox, 1998
Oklahoma DVD
I bought this for Mother's Day because my mom loved this show and knew all the tunes. Even though she has Alzheimers now and can't always remember who I am she can still sing along with the show and remember most of the words. It brings her such joy.

Sunday in New York
Rod Taylor, Jane Fonda
MGM (Warner), 1998
PLEEEEEASE release this jewel on DVD!!!!!
This is one of those movies to which you can just curl up on the sofa and enjoy bigone simplistic but romantic views on social relationships. The movie, of course, is the product of its era, with all the expected restrictions to female sexuality and expression. ...

Raintree County
Montgomery Clift, Elizabeth Taylor
MGM (Video & DVD), 1997
Esoterically Enigmatic
I like RAINTREE COUNTY. I rate it in my top 10 or 20 films. (If you rank films it often seems we need more space in our top 10 doesn't it?) Essentially the film seems magical for me. It is a somewhat offbeat and disturbing epic that seems to captivate the viewer. In ...

A Gathering of Eagles
Rock Hudson, Rod Taylor
Universal Home Video, 1998
A Gathering of Eagles
I liked the movie. I was in it when it was filmed at Beale AFB, CA
in 1963. I was a Security Policeman on the flight line and we, as
well as our aircrews and missle crews were used as background players.
SAC, with a little human dramatization, was pretty well ...

World Without End
Hugh Marlowe, Nancy Gates
Warner Home Video, 1997
Good Old fashioned fun
Those looking for some sort of deep meaning underlying the film will likely be disappointed but if you are looking for a great evening of 1950's popcorn fare this is it. In fact despite some of its drawbacks it still has something that leaves one with the feeling that ...

An explosive movie!

Ask Any Girl
David Niven, Shirley MacLaine
MGM (Warner), 1993
A case study in motivational research
Great comedy. Typical of the era. I have watched it at least 50 times. Each time you get a different perspective. David Niven and Gig young are brothers in a research firm David Niven (Miles Doughton) does all the work; while Gig Young (Evan Doughton) does all the ...
