DVD: Jean Arthur ...     DVD:       Shane168 reviews Alan Ladd, Jean Arthur Paramount Home Video, 2000 A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it This is a believable, exciting story. The scenery is beautiful and the movie is just well-done all the way around. Alan Ladd, Jack Palance, Ben Johnson and the rest are outstanding. A gunslinger who is trying to make a new start in life thinks he's escaping to a peaceful area. Then he discovers that conflict is there too. He does his best to avoid involvement, but realizes that he is the only one ...             The Red Violin270 reviews Carlo Cecchi, Irene Grazioli Lions Gate, 2003 A Great Story Done in an Original and Most interesting Way This movie should have received multiple Academy Awards, but alas, I guess there werte not enough explosions in the movie. The story of a wonderful instrument, and all the lives it touched over the centuries, is one of my favorite moviers ever.             Shirley Temple - America's Sweetheart Collection, Vol. 1 (Heidi / Curly Top / Little Miss Broadway)16 reviews Shirley Temple, Jean Hersholt 20th Century Fox, 2005 A SPARKLING GEM Once in a great while a person comes along that you just have to love with your whole being ... with absolutely no regrets!

Yes. Hammy? Yes. Delightful? Yes.             The Premiere Frank Capra Collection (Mr. Smith Goes to Washington / It Happened One Night / You Can't Take It ...17 reviews Jean Arthur, James Stewart Sony Pictures, 2006 frank capra These are classic movies which every red-blooded American should see. Capra captures the American spirit well. And Jimmy Stewart is a genius! You can't not love his characters.             Mr. Smith Goes to Washington110 reviews Jean Arthur, James Stewart Sony Pictures, 2000 Capra challenges America Jefferson Smith is the quintessential naïve, honest hero that Stewart played in his early years. Smith fills an unexpired US Senate seat as the result of a coin toss. Ignorant of the games that Washington plays, he assumes that that his job is to represent the folks at home passionately and honestly. Like Don Quixote, Smith tilts windmills: he stands up against the corrupt Senator Joseph Harrison ...             Fantastic Voyage (Special Edition)40 reviews Stephen Boyd, Raquel Welch 20th Century Fox, 2007 excellent old sci-fi This is an excellent 60"s sci-fi film. It was done with intelligent thinking and the special effects are great for that time.             The Train80 reviews Burt Lancaster, Paul Scofield MGM (Video & DVD), 1999 Riveting action and suspense as the French Resistance attempts to stop a Nazi train full of looted artwork If "The Train" isn't Burt Lancaster's finest film, it must certainly be included in the top two or three. Lancaster gives an outstanding performance as Paul Labiche, a resourceful French station master working with the Resistance to prevent the retreating German army from stealing the national patrimony of art masterpieces. There are plenty of heart-stopping moments in this suspenseful action ...             Easy Living (Universal Cinema Classics)17 reviews Jean Arthur, Edward Arnold Universal Studios, 2008 Piggy Bank Blindfolds, Confusing Installment Plans and Starving Secretaries Are Here ComicallyKismetted Jean Arthur never made a better comedy, and that's saying something! With a surfeit of superb set-pieces, and unequalled writing, Easy Living sashays giddily along the avenues of depression American, spewing forth hilarity like so many wildcat strikes. So miraculous is Sturges' touch he almost seems a comic rhabdomancist, as gushers of comedy break forth in a supernormal even surrealist display ...             Moontide (Fox Film Noir) Gertrude Astor, Arthur Ayleswofth 20th Century Fox, 2008             Elmer Gantry48 reviews Burt Lancaster, Jean Simmons MGM (Video & DVD), 2001 Elmer "where are ya now, when we need you" Gantry Ah yes, when men were men, and Burt Lancaster was the best of all possible men! He has always breathed a quality of three-dimensional life into the characters that he portrayed that made him almost mythical. But clearly this was one of Burt's best acting performances. The man embodied sheer brilliance. In one scene Elmer (Burt Lancaster) walks into an all black Church, takes a place in the ...             Le Plaisir1 review Amedee, Paul Azäis Criterion Collection, 2008 Max Ophuls' marvelous film of pleasure and, perhaps, love The screen is pitch black and we hear a voice..."I'm so happy to be talking in the dark as if I were beside you, and maybe I am." The speaker is Guy de Maupassant (voiced by Jean Marais), and Le Plaisir is three of his stories filmed by the great director Max Ophuls. The connecting thread? That pleasure, or even love, lies in how people intermingle their lives, with a shrug, assumptions, an ...             Moonraker196 reviews Roger Moore, Georges Beller MGM (Video & DVD), 2007 james bound with a touch of star wars In moonraker the action packed sequel and continuation of the spy who loved me James bound must stop a mad man who has stolen moonraker a us space shuttle from wiping out all man kind with and orb filled with a leathal flower particles.

Would buy again from this seller!             Privilege3 reviews Alba, Max Bacon New Yorker Video, 2008 At last!!! Almost a template for the modern "mockumentary," this 1967 film from director Peter Watkins spins out the cautionary tale of pop idol Steven Shorter (an enigmatically understated Paul Jones) in a near-future Britain, where the government uses Shorter's popularity as a means of controlling the youth of the nation. This somehow sweetly-sad film has film has become surprisingly relevant in today's ...             King David43 reviews Richard Gere, Edward Woodward Paramount, 2003 splendid isn't richard gere a hunk in here, the story is nicely portreted, nice bible story if you read the bible. the others are wonderfull too.             A Midsummer Night's Dream37 reviews James Cagney, Joe E. Brown Warner Home Video, 2007 WARNER'S "PRESTIGE" FOLLY - ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL ! A beautiful print with excellent extras. One could certainly quibble about whether or not it's "Shakespeare" - But who cares, it's fantastically conceived and BEAUTIFULLY photographed. The cast is eclectic, to say the least - But in nutty sort of way, inspired (Rooney). The Korngold score is a treasure from beginning to end (adapted with great skill from several of Menddelssohn's works - A not ...             Pinky34 reviews Jeanne Crain, Ethel Barrymore 20th Century Fox, 2006 Pinky-The Movie A very nice copy of an old classic. My mother called my daughter "Pinky" for years. I finally got saw the movie and saw what she meant. What an interesting movie which shows just how far America has come in her thinking since this movie was made. This movie and "Imitation of Life" are perfect rainy day movies!             Shirley Temple - America's Sweetheart Collection, Vol. 3 (Dimples / The Little Colonel / The Littlest Rebel)6 reviews Shirley Temple, Frank Morgan 20th Century Fox, 2006 Not Only The Greatest Child Actress. But The Greatest Actress Ever. I just finished watching this volume 3 collection and want to wholeheartedly endorse it. I had read some reviews that the picture quality and sound was not so good and was doubtful if I should buy it, but bought it all the same as I had enjoyed the other two volumes so much. Well I was not disappointed at all. The sound quality was very good. Try listning to it on the stereo option on the ...             Project X14 reviews Willie (IV), Okko Starz / Anchor Bay, 2005 Excellent I saw this movie when it first came out and have always wanted it. I could not believe I found it here at Amazon at such a great low price. This movie is so funny and yet so sad. It is the best movie I have ever seen. You have to see it. It is so sad to know that this kind of testing was actually performed on chimps by the US Airforce. This movie really makes you think.
