I ordered this classic as a surprise gift for my father who turned 80 in 2008! This is his favorite all time movie. He was surprised and enjoyed the entire film. All generations could be inspired with this movie.

Being an Atheist, I still adore this film
As a child, no TV image comes out as clearly and emotional as Robert Powells eyes and glances during the whole length of his scenes during this production; is truly bewitching and one must admit, Zeffirelli distilled pured genius when designing the character... Jesus ...

How Much Anti-Semitism is Too Much?
How the audience is supposed to interpret Shakespeare's intent at presenting Shylock as either the stereotypical Jewish moneygrubber or an heroic and sinned against ethnic depends largely on the interplay of three factors: his original intent in writing THE MERCHANT OF ...

New York City Ballet Workout
Barbara Adolph
Palm Pictures / Umvd, 2001
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS BALLET WORKOUT!
This ballet workout is wonderful. I feel like I'm taking ballet classes again! Absolute beginners may find it a little bit difficult at first or confusing because you need to learn the basics from a teacher who can see you and correct you. It's all about correct ...

Woodstock - 3 Days of Peace & Music (The Director's Cut)
Richie Havens, Joan Baez
Warner Home Video, 1994
Woodstock "Raw" Three day event
They say that Woodstock is coming out on blue-ray in 2009, Fitting I since it will be the 40th Anniversary. But I do have a question for Warner Bros who own the outakes to the footage of the 1969 concert.
If there's a DVD worth of Jimi Hendrix performances not ...

Gangs Of New York
Leonardo DiCaprio, Jim Broadbent
Walt Disney Video \ Miramax, 2003
Amazing
Amazing movie. Daniel Day Lewis is fantastic as Bill the Butcher. Although I'm not a fan, DiCaprio does a really nice job as well. Long movie but keeps your attention. The violence is done very tastefully so it's not all blood and gore. Highly recommended.

Good video - depends on the fitness level
I tend to disagree with the other reviews. I had this video and was sorry I got rid of it. This video would be great for my current situation. Arthritis in my ankle and haven't worked out in too many years. It's a more controlled pace, with easier moves than some ...
