To Sir, with Love
Sidney Poitier, Christian Roberts
RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video, 1967
Timeless Classic!
TSWL has been a favourite of mine for many years. They picked a really great cast to make this film. Although made and set in 1960s London there are certain things that are still relevant to todays world; problem kids no teacher wants in his/her class, racial ...

Sleeping Beauty
Mary Costa, Bill Shirley
Walt Disney Home Video, 1997
Bogus Reviews on a Disc Not Yet Released But...
I am in the Sleeping Beauty camp. This is the first film I remember seeing in a movie theater in 1959, I was all of three years-old but the imagery has remained with me and this is my favorite of all the "Fairy Tales" Walt put out.
I can't wait for the Blu-ray ...

Fantasia
Leopold Stokowski, Deems Taylor
Walt Disney Home Video, 1992
Wow! The First Music Videos and For Classical Music Too!
This movie was clearly way ahead of its time when it was released in the early 1940s and I'm not surprised that it was a box-office flop at that time as it struck me while watching this that this must be the "Sgt. Pepper's" of animation at that time. Another major ...

Nobody's Fool (1994)
Paul Newman, Jessica Tandy
Paramount, 1997
Less is more
This is a gentle, small movie about small-town living and its citizens, particularly a blatantly unapologetic ne'er-do-well named Sully (Paul Newman) who has lived his life exactly as he wants to and manages, by optimism and the bonding in this town, to survive quite ...

John Belushi in a smart comedy
Forget Meet the Parents, Neighbors is where it's at. Why is this not on DVD? Tune into the Animal House 30th Anniversary on Biography until this movie starring Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi is released on DVD. Some special features would be a nice addition to this ...

Melissa and her husband Jory danced with us when we were just a small midwest company. I was the very lucky one to dance with both of them up close and personal and what a thrill it was.

Jean Lafitte, Prince of Pirates
A swashbuckler with pirates, smugglers and patriots, this is marvelous entertainment, with two actors who are riveting to watch, and some history, which though embellished in some places and condensed in others, is in essence correct. Jean Lafitte was flamboyant and a ...

great
Ok, ok. I know you're not "supposed" to put your child in front of the TV while you try to get something done. But here in the real world we have to do just that every once in a while. At least if I put on a video I know there won't be any surprises that I don't want ...

I LOVE this workout!
I'm glad I took the advice of the many great reviews on Amazon and bought this video (used.) It's a great, effective workout with substance, and easy to stick with. You often don't find this in more recent workout DVD's. I'd say it's one of the best workout tapes I ...

Makes Rush Hour look like a game of candyland.
This film is amazing! Some of the stunts in here make you wonder is Jackie is even human. My favorite Jackie Chan film by far.

Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint

Is this Roger Thornhill or Bond, James Bond?
This 1959 Alfred Hitchcock film was the fourth and last "spy" film that he did with Cary Grant. The others are Suspicion (1941), Notorious (1946), and To Catch a Thief (1955).
I realize that Hitchcock was a close friend of Albert Broccoli (James Bond films)and Cary ...

Careful!
Be careful to get the correct version (the one w/ the characters riding in a car) of the VCR tape so that you get the period music by the original artists. The DVD doesn't have the original artists, either. Also be careful whom you buy from. The copy of the version ...
