While watching the madcap and romantic rural adventures of this good hearted, middle American family a couldn't help feeling as though I had been sucked through some sort of time warp to a time and place far more distant than a state fair in Iowa circa 1945. Was the world ever as simple, honest and ...             Battle of the Bulge138 reviews Henry Fonda, Robert Ryan Warner Home Video, 2005 battle of the bulge Outstanding product.

He was unable to buy the movie in Europe             Ball of Fire43 reviews Gary Cooper, Barbara Stanwyck MGM (Video & DVD), 2007 A sweet old comedy Very corny but sweet black and white movie. A very enjoyable movie on a rainy afternoon.             Daisy Kenyon (Fox Film Noir)22 reviews Joan Crawford, Dana Andrews 20th Century Fox, 2008 Crawford Joan ,Joan. This movie is so Joan Crawford . She was so beautiful . I especially like the men in her life. I liked how different they were ,yet how so a like .This film has everything from child abuse to the triangular love affair.Through it all Daisy remains her strong independent self.             Battle of the Bulge [Blu-ray]138 reviews Axel Anderson, Dana Andrews Warner Home Video, 2007 battle of the bulge Outstanding product.

Anderson, Dana Andrews MGM, 2008 Walter Brennan Stole the Show Walter Brennan won his third Oscar for best supporting actor playing the part of "Judge" Roy Bean in The Westerner. He was made for this part like Vivien Leigh was made to play Scarlet. Anyone who remembers Brennan as "Grandpa" in The Real McCoys and in lesser roles over the years, and has any interest in the early westerns, will be captivated by Brennan's portrayal of this dusty, ...             The Best Years of Our Lives147 reviews Fredric March, Dana Andrews MGM (Video & DVD), 2000 Before the movie, before the screenplay, a book-length poem Many viewers of this great American movie -- it won seven Oscars, including Best Picture, for 1946 -- are unaware that it was based on a most unusual book-length narrative poem by MacKinlay Kantor, "Glory for Me," published in 1945. In 1970, I was a lieutenant working at the Air Force Historical Research Center. The older historians told a word-of-mouth story how the book and the movie came to ...             The Loved One64 reviews Robert Morse, Jonathan Winters Warner Home Video, 2006 Wonderful Value-Rare Movie I am a Funeral Director and this movie is a, "black" comedy about the funeral industry. It is in black and white and was shot in the mid 60's. A cast of very famous people in it. It is considered a cult classic by people in the funeral industry. It is also pretty hard to get a hold of a good copy of it, especially on DVD. I have purchased this same DVD several times for gifts for friends ...             The Devil's Brigade37 reviews William Holden, Cliff Robertson MGM (Video & DVD), 2002 Classic William Holden Classic war genre movie, classic William Holden. It would be a good one to round out your collection.             In Harm's Way101 reviews John Wayne, Kirk Douglas Paramount, 2001 Duke at his best A classic match up of John Wayne, Kirk Douglas with a five star supporting cast. This, and the action a suspence of the early days of World War Two, make it unforgetable.             Heaven Help Us50 reviews Donald Sutherland, John Heard HBO Home Video, 2005 Forgotten Gem... Great coming of age movie set in a Catholic school in Brooklyn during the 60s. Know as `Catholic Boys' in the UK, I first watched this film on TV after initially never heard of it before. Even though the film is set in a Catholic school during the sixties, most people will relate to some of the characters in the film. It definitely reminded me of my time in school in England. You have Rooney ...             Curse of the Demon / Night of the Demon100 reviews Dana Andrews, Peggy Cummins Sony Pictures, 2002 CURSE OF THE DEMON / NIGHT OF THE DEMON - Great horror flick of the late 50's. I first saw the Night of the Demon when it was made back in 1958 and rate the film at five stars. I thought it was a great film with very respectable special effects for the time. No question that by today's standards the scenes of the demon at the beginning and end were poor. But the pace, great atmosphere and basic story made up for the dated special effects. I think those younger horror movie ...             Crash Dive20 reviews Tyrone Power, Anne Baxter 20th Century Fox, 2004 EXCELLENT PERIOD PIECE MOVIE I was born the year this movie was released, while the average American service man yet had 3 years or more left to serve. In fact, many American military men did not start returning home until 1946 or later, my father returned in '46 as well as my wife's whose USMC service continued from landing at Saipan and after the battle on to China. This is a notable movie for a couple reasons: first, ...             The Ox-Bow Incident57 reviews Henry Fonda, Dana Andrews 20th Century Fox, 2003 Morality play meets Wild West Have you ever thought you knew what the right thing to do was, but couldn't convince others of your reasoning? "The Ox-Bow Incident" could be best described as a western disguised as a morality play on mob justice, or vice versa. It definitely is a film which is based on not the traditional western format of "shoot em up" but rather takes a philosophical approach to what mob justice really ...             Fallen Angel (Fox Film Noir)24 reviews Alice Faye, Dana Andrews 20th Century Fox, 2006 OTTO PREMINGER, OPUS 9 ****1/2 1945. Produced and directed by Otto Preminger, FALLEN ANGEL was based on Marty Holland's Fallen Angel. Walton, California. Eric Stanton is accused of the murder of Stella, a waitress he was attracted to. One year after Laura (Fox Film Noir), Preminger tells us once again the story of a woman adulated by all the men she meets and who becomes the source of a drama. The first apparition of ...             Good Guys Wear Black18 reviews Chuck Norris, Anne Archer Hbo Home Video, 2000 Another fine Chuck Norris classic! If you like deep character development, Oscar-winning performances and gripping drama, then look elsewhere. Good Guys Wear Black is an early Chuck Norris as an ex-Special Forces commando left stranded with his unit in Vietnam. About six years later, he's resurfaced in the U.S., but all his comrades are being killed off. It's up to Norris to find out why, before he's next. A little slow for a ...             Elephant Walk21 reviews Elizabeth Taylor, Dana Andrews Paramount, 2005 A movie I'll never forget... This is a great movie. So what if it's somewhat of a soap opera? It's actually a lot better than a soap opera to me. After all, how many soaps have rampaging elephants in their finale? Elizabeth Taylor is stunning in this movie, and her acting looks convincing most of the time. Basically, two men are competing for her, one of them her husband, the other his colleague. Just as Elizabeth's ...             Hot Rods to Hell15 reviews Dana Andrews, Jeanne Crain Warner Home Video, 2007 A Great Bad Movie An insufferably uptight Dana Andrews defends himself, his family and his new business against local punks in hot rods. Hysterically funny, though it's not supposed to be (I think). Poor Dana Andrews really touched bottom here.             Where the Sidewalk Ends (Fox Film Noir)25 reviews Dana Andrews, Gene Tierney 20th Century Fox, 2005 OTTO PREMINGER, OPUS 15 ***** 1950. Based on a novel by William L. Stuart, WHERE THE SIDEWALK ENDS was produced and directed by Otto Preminger. A violent policeman, son of a thief, accidentally kills a key witness of the murder he must investigate. The father of the dead man's wife is charged with the murder while the policeman is feeling more and more guilty. A movie about ambiguity, about the fine line that separates ...             Take a Hard Ride4 reviews Lee Van Cleef, Jim Brown Starz / Anchor Bay, 2006 Fun & Exciting Western. A Tribute to the Genre. This is the type of film they don't make anymore (sadly). A good, old-fashioned, western. Jim Brown's the stalwart, Fred Williamson's the charltan you don't know how he's going to turn, and Jim Kelly's the one who's tougher than both of them. To top it off, the old pro Lee Van Cleef is along for the ride, and he'd like to see all of them dead.
