Blue's Clues - Blue's Big Treasure Hunt

Gorden Kaye, Carmen Silvera

Paramount, 1999

Treasure Hunt is the BEST Blues video yet.
My daughter has been watching Blues Clues from the age of 6 months. Today she is 17 months and adores the one and only STEVE! She is mezmerized by the songs and surprise guest in this one episode. She smiles uncontrollably when Steve and Blue "skidoo" into the ...

Father Goose

Cary Grant, Leslie Caron

Republic Pictures, 2001

Father Goose ~ classic movie !
Light-hearted, yet philosophical and with a spark of "danger" thrown in at just the right times. Brilliant role by Cary Grant, with his classic expressions, and subtle moves. Just a great sit-back-and-enjoy movie.

Battle of Britain

Harry Andrews, Michael Caine

MGM/ UA Home Video, 1996

Battle of Britain
Dear Amazon: The Blu-Ray "Battle of Britain".............is so clear and superb quality. Viewing the movie in the Blu-Ray format makes this part of history more profound. A history of WW II lover's delight for enjoyable viewing coupled with great audio quality. ...

Jamaica Inn

Jane Seymour, Patrick McGoohan

Starmaker Entertainment / R&G, 1996

Jane Seymour at her best!
This is far better than Hitchcock's version of "Jamaica Inn". Jane Seymour never looked more beautiful than in this compelling, beautifully filmed mini-series. The cast is great, the scenery breathtaking (just like Seymour!), & the combination of suspense & romance ...

Christmas Eve

Loretta Young, Trevor Howard

Goodtimes, 1992

Christmas Eve w/ Loretta Young
One of those movies that, seen once, it becomes part of your "Christmas movie repertoire". It wouldn't be Christmas without it. An absolutely charming tale of family love. Loretta Young is all that you would expect.

Literary Masterpieces: The Count of Monte Cristo

Richard Chamberlain, Kate Nelligan

Live / Artisan, 1996

The Best Version of "Cristo"
I saw this when it was first shown on US television in about 1975 and was amazed by the storyline and the acting. I had seen Chamberlain in his TV series, but this film allowed him a vast range of emotions and exercises which the Tv show did not. I had not read the ...

Windwalker

Trevor Howard, Nick Ramus

United American Video, 2001

Years ahead of it's time
I too am Native American, born on the Cheyenne River Reservation. While it would have been nice if there had been native American actors, this film broke the stereotype and was the first to present the Native Americans in an authentic way in spite of the christian ...

Gandhi

Ben Kingsley, Candice Bergen

RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video, 1982

Gandhi (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)
I purchased this title for our social justice learning group to view. It was every bit as good as I remembered it from the big screen. What I can't believe is that it has been more than 25 years since its release. No doubt this film was the apex of Ben Kingsley's ...

A Doll's House

Jane Fonda, Edward Fox

United Home, 1998

"You are first and foremost a wife and mother."
Filmed in 1973, this Joseph Losey-directed adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's play feels fragmented, its message sacrified to the lovely cinematography, stunning costumes, and then-controversial star. In Ibsen's play, Nora gradually changes from being a brainless doll to a ...

White Mischief

Greta Scacchi, Charles Dance

Embassy/Nelson Ent. - O.B., 1990

Social Rot, African Style
Seldom has social rot been more beautifully photographed than here. It's 1940. Bombs are raining down on London, soldiers are dying across Europe, Hitler is on the rise, yet not a drop of alcohol is being spilled by the rich and idle colonialists of British east ...

Last Remake of Beau Geste

Ann-Margret, Philip Bollard

Universal Studios, 1992

Probably the Funniest Foreign Legion Film..........EVER
I wish they'd do this one on DVD, because MArty takes the classic Legion Etrangre film (Gary Cooper 1939) and trashes it the way Mel Brooks did "Blazing Saddles" on the Western Genre..... Marty Feldman is a fogotten comic in the vein of Laurel and Hardy or Buster ...

Unholy

Ruben Rabasa, Nicole Fortier

Vestron Video, 1998

Get Real People
This is a fun, entertaining MOVIE! To say that this depicts the way SAAAY-TAN (insert your own impression of Dana Carvey's "Church Lady" here) works is absurd. There are demons out there, there is evil, but to say that this is how they work?!? Come on. Besides, ...

Inside the Third Reich

Rutger Hauer, John Gielgud

Starmaker Entertainment, 1993

Outstanding Miniseries
This movie is one of my favorites. It runs 4 hours so you have to have time available to view it all. The show starts out showing some of the horrors of the holocaust and some of the death and destruction caused by World War II. Let the squeamish beware. No ...

Brief Encounter

Celia Johnson, Trevor Howard

Paramount Home Video, 1988

Language: English (YES) Italian (NO)
For "Brief Encounter - Criterion Collection" (1946) "Brief Encounter - Criterion Collection" is a gorgeous restoration of an exceptional and enduring work of art. But the Amazon product detail description of "Language: English, Italian" is incorrect. Italian ...

Morituri

Marlon Brando, Yul Brynner

20th Century Fox, 1998

A strange movie but very good film-noir
Here we have a non-typical WW II film where a man is recruited by the British authorities to sabotage a German submarine. Marlon Brando shines in this unique role. On the sub, Jewish shipwrecked (by the sub) captives are brought on board, ironically complicating ...
