DVD: Myrna Loy ...     DVD:       Cheaper by the Dozen (1950) / Belles on Their Toes16 reviews Jeanne Crain, Myrna Loy 20th Century Fox, 2004 The Older Version is the Better Choice Clifton Webb was most often case in dramatic roles. In ""Cheaper by the Dozen"" we get to see Webb in his comedic best. The original version of this film surpasses the newer one for many reasons: 1)the adults in the original had a wisdom and dignity sadly lacking in the modern setting, 2)the work ethic of the Gilbreth children is enchanting in the original, and, finally, 3) touching on the ...             Myrna Loy and William Powell Collection (Manhattan Melodrama / Evelyn Prentice / Double Wedding / I Love You ...27 reviews Myrna Loy, William Powell Warner Home Video, 2007 Myrna and William box set I've only had the chance to see one of the movies in the box set, which is Manhatan Melodrama. Very good movie, good performances. If you love Myrna and William, then it's a sure must have.

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 Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer29 reviews Bill Roberts (VIII), Cary Grant Turner Home Ent, 2004 FUNNY MOVIE The movie is terrific. Loy and Grant seem so comfortable together. I noticed an example of this. In the nightclub scene when they are dancing Grant states, "My father was a bachelor..." Loy then says that's nice or that interesting. I think she cut his line off because Grant laughs and adlibs, "Wait let me finish." If you look at Loy she smiles and looks off camera. As the dance moves her ...             The End18 reviews Burt Reynolds, James Best MGM Home Entertainment, 2001 "P": IN YOUR PANTS FROM LAUGHING TIME!!!!!! This IS one THE classics along with "Young Frankenstein," "Blazing Saddles," "Texas Across the River," and ALL of the hilarious older movies.

I love having films like this on hand for movie night with my neices. Introduces them to another time and place and no worry about inappropriate language, sex and violence, good clean humor. So funny to think Cary Grant's character felt sorry for the poor guy not fortunate enough to earn $15,000 a year, and Myrna Loy's scene with the ...             The Complete Thin Man Collection (The Thin Man / After the Thin Man / Another Thin Man / Shadow of the Thin ...194 reviews William Powell, Myrna Loy Warner Home Video, 2005 Thin Man Series is not Tinny Have always been a fan the Thin Man and this collection has it all. I viewed the films in chronological order purposely to notice the changes in quips between the two . They were more witty and sophisticated with each film. To tell you a secret, I really never cared for the explanation of why the killer did it but rather the scenes to catch the killer is what makes these films. Yes there is a ...             From the Terrace24 reviews Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward 20th Century Fox, 2003 paul newman fan Paul Newman was not just another pretty face. I think this was one of the films that proved that.             The Thin Man (Keepcase)103 reviews William Powell, Myrna Loy Warner Home Video, 2005 Reporter: Well, can't you tell us anything about the case? Nick Charles: Yes, it's putting me way behind in my drinking. It is not easy to make a good comedy or a good mystery but to combine two genres together and make Comedy / Crime / Mystery as sparkling, funny, elegant and dynamic as 93 minutes long "The Thin Man" (1934) directed by W.S. Van Dyke is incredibly marvelous. The film owes a lot of its charm to the great working chemistry between two main characters, the husband and wife sleuths, Nora and Nick ...             Belles on Their Toes14 reviews Jeanne Crain, Myrna Loy 20th Century Fox, 2004 Sequel To Cheaper By The Dozen This is the sequel to the original Cheaper By The Dozen.

The ever-charming, debonair Powell is perfect casting for Zeigfeld, and frequent co-star Myrna Loy is also on hand playing second wife Billie Burke. Winner of that year's Best Picture Oscar, Luise Rainer also won a statuette for her portrayal of "Ziggy"'s first ...             Love Me Tonight20 reviews Maurice Chevalier, Jeanette MacDonald Kino Video, 2003 A Landmark Musical Another perfect film is now readily available on DVD. This film is widely recognised as one of the best musicals ever.

The Rains Came was released the same year Gone with the Wind (1939) brought a storm of viewers to the silver screen. Unlike Gone with the Wind, which received a legendary status in the cinema history, The Rains Came only made an impact in the special effects department. The special effects are rather amazing, even today many viewers will drop their jaws, as they ponder the age of the film and ...             Libeled Lady36 reviews Jean Harlow, William Powell Warner Home Video, 2005 Outrageously Funny! This is another great screwball comedy (1936) set during the great depression, casting some of the best performers of that time. Having nominated by the Academy in the best picture category, the movie is riveting and you will be glued from beginning to end due to the offbeat nature of the comedy. The story is a pure farce comedy, when the daughter of an aristocratic family Connie Allenbury (Myrna ...             Shadow of the Thin Man17 reviews William Powell, Myrna Loy Warner Home Video, 2007 "Baby, you've arrived!" The most fun and sophisticated series in the history of film continued with Maj. W.S. Van Dyke's 1941 entry, Shadow of the Thin Man. William Powell was back, of course, as Dashiell Hammett's greatest creation, Nick Charles. Myrna Loy was back as his better half, and needless to say a shaker of martinis and a lot of witty banter was sure to follow as Nick and Nora got involved in yet another ...             After the Thin Man21 reviews William Powell, Myrna Loy Warner Home Video, 2007 A sequel that matches the original. W.S. Van Dyke's "After the Thin Man," the first of five sequels to the original "Thin Man," is the best of the five and the only one that truly matched the consistent thrills and sprightly fun of the original. It picks up where the first movie left off, as Nick (William Powell) and Nora (Myrna Loy) come home to San Francisco from New York, where they receive a less-than-warm welcome from Nora's ...             Ants7 reviews Suzanne Somers, Robert Foxworth Direct Source Label, 2006 Bravo to Direct Source Video At last a company that is dedicated to releasing pristine quality prints of exceptionally rare TV Movies of an era fondly remembered by viewers of the 1970s.
