Nixon

Paul Butler, DeVaughn Nixon

Sony Pictures, 1997

A captivating movie
This is a fascinating, in some instances even strange, movie, filled with nuance and dark overtones. A menacing man (Danny Glover) "with a past" shows up one day to the home of a solidly middle-class black family. They'd known each other thirty years before in the deep ...

The Sound of Music

Julie Andrews, Christopher Plummer

20th Century Fox, 2000

The Most Inspiring Musical Of The 20th Century.
In the 1960's Julie Andrews played a part in two of the most definitive musicals of the 20th Century. Disney's Mary Poppins and Rodgers & Hammerstein's The Sound of Music, both gave someone a clean cut fun and heart warming experience that had many people humming the ...

I Am the Cheese

Frank McGurran, Robert MacNaughton

Palm Beach Entertainment, 1994

Adam still pedals on is lonely bike ride in my mind..
I first read this book when I was in the 7th grade. I didn't understand it all then, because there are a lot of levels to the story. I so identified with Adam, felt so alone, felt all this stuff inside me, wanted to be a writer and kept a journal full of ...

Little Darlings

Tatum O'Neal, Kristy McNichol

Paramount, 1998

Thank you - Little Darlings
I use to watch this all the time as a little girl. It brings back such fond memories having this in my collection now that I am an adult. Thank you!!

Let It Ride

Richard Dreyfuss, David Johansen

Paramount, 1998

Let It Ride
My Husband loves this movie! Funny, good ending and not too many curse words!

The Bodyguard

Kevin Costner, Whitney Houston

Warner Home Video, 1993

The Bodyguard aka He'll be back
Who hasn't seen this movie if at all remotely curious, interested or fans of either megastar? The unattainable White Knight and IR relationship that may or may not move beyond confines. Can't imagine in real life, a clean end after such intensity. If you've ever gone ...

Mulan (Disney's Masterpiece)

Miguel Ferrer, Harvey Fierstein

Walt Disney Home Video, 1999

ONE OF DISNEY'S FINEST ANIMATED FEATURE FILMS!
Mixing CGI and hand drawn animation, Disney bring us one of it's greatest animated films, 'Mulan' is better than half the live action films that have come out in the last 10 years. Beautiful animation, exciting action sequences and an wonderful story make this a must ...

Jazz - A Film by Ken Burns

Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Charles J. Correll

Pbs Home Video, 2001

It's not perfect, but its pretty much all we have
I will admit that this series has its shortcomings, however no one else has even attempted to produce anything better. I'm no great lover of Ken Burns, but he did at least attempt to bring the history of Jazz to the masses in some form or another. It's not perfect by ...

Secret Garden

Margaret O'Brien, Herbert Marshall

MGM (Warner), 1992

Great film - restoration needed
I had only seen this film I think once before the 1993 remake was released, and the latter was the version I grew up with. I never realized how great a film the 1949 original really was until I rediscovered it when it aired on TCM on Christmas Eve two or three years ...

Great Balls of Fire

Dennis Quaid, Winona Ryder

Orion Pictures Corporation, 1992

Jerry Lee and Dennis Quaid Rock!
Great Balls of Fire is one of my favorite movies of all time. The actors and the soundtrack are fantastic. I grew up in the fifties with Elvis and all the others, have a great collection of Elvis music, but I didn't realize Jerry Lee Lewis because of circumstances, ...

Tattoo

Bruce Dern, Maud Adams

20th Century Fox, 1998

Deliciously Weird
I love movies like this, I watch them to see just how strange they will get!!! Tattoo is more of a psychological drama, I found myself wondering what it would be like to have been in a position like that of Maude Adams' character...I was completely paranoid and even ...

Sex and the City - The Complete Third Season

Sarah Jessica Parker

HBO Home Video, 2002

Love SATC
I think in the 3rd season of SATC the series gets into its stride and it becomes the SATC that people have grown to love. It's a toss up which is my favorite between season 3 and 4 but my absolute favorite episode is Hot Child in the City found in season 3!

When in Rome

Ashley Olsen, Mary-Kate Olsen

Warner Home Video, 2002

When in Rome...Olsen twins
I saw this movie on T.V. one day and thought it was pretty good. It's fun and romantic like always. Cute Olsen twins fall in love again, only this time in Rome. Great footage of Rome itself. Great movie for sleepovers or group watching.

Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake

Adam Cooper, Scott Ambler

Teldec/Video Only, 1997

Swan Lake Experience
I saw the live version of this production in Brisbane (April 2007) and it was truly magical and amazing. I did notice a couple of changes since the filming of the DVD. I love that Matthew Bourne's male swans portray the strength and well-known aggression of real life ...
