DVD: american     DVD:       Lonesome Dove15 reviews Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones Rhi Entertainment, 2008 Bud Wright I believe I have some insight into this whole aspect ratio controversy. For many years, filmmakers filmed movies in something called "Super 35." The final, unedited and uncropped raw footage looks something like the old Chevrolet symbol, in that each scene was framed in both widescreen AND fullscreen ratios. The widescreen crop, of course, was released to theaters, but the fullscreen crop was ...             The Great Debaters59 reviews Denzel Washington, Forest Whitaker Genius Products (TVN), 2008 Brillant Movie by Denzil and Oprah This is a wonderful movie that you will love. very great and positive and teaches one to work hard and the shy is the limit and once you believes that God is the judge and the opponent doesn't exist you will win. Challenges will arise but with hard work you can reach for the skies. Excellent movie Denzil Washington.             The Doors [Blu-ray]224 reviews Gretchen Becker, Jacqui Bell Lions Gate, 2008 Val Kilmer's best performance Great music, great concert camera work, and great acting by Val Kilmer. The only real negative is the focus on Lizard King persona, and not enough real Jim. But overall worth watching w/ the volume set on high.             Iron Jawed Angels84 reviews Hilary Swank, Margo Martindale Hbo Home Video, 2004 Women Fight - Women Win - Women Vote This is a truly wonderful film. It exposes us to the fight that women endured to obtain the right to vote. Historically speaking it is very accurate with a little bit of Hollywood thrown in of course. The female cast is outstanding and I found myself cheering at the end even though I knew the outcome. This is must see movie for anyone interested in American history and especially the history that ...             Centennial: The Complete Series224 reviews Centennial Universal Studios, 2008 History at its best Michener's book is brought to life in the most enjoyable way, and leaves you with a better understanding of our early history.             American Psycho (Uncut Killer Collector's Edition)520 reviews Christian Bale, Justin Theroux Lions Gate, 2005 Do you like Phil Collins? Absolutely one of my favorite movies. A satire of the yuppie culture and life in the 80's, American Psycho is a cross between a comedy and a horror movie. There are so many cold, icy, lines that will make you laugh, but there is also the psychotic killer aspect that makes you feel guilty for even liking the movie. A real thinking movie, you will probably have to watch it twice, but you won't ...             John Adams (HBO Miniseries)299 reviews Paul Giamatti, Laura Linney HBO, 2008 America, even today you are Beautiful Freedom is not an easy task. We have gotten spoiled. Watch and learn! The tragedies can happen again.             Brideshead Revisited (25th Anniversary Collector's Edition)97 reviews Jeremy Irons, Anthony Andrews Acorn Media, 2006 Best Production ever made Brideshead has just been released-I mean the new movie version which reviewer Rex Reed (who doesn't like anything) gave high marks. However, nothing can compare to the series made in the early 1980's. It's flawless. It has the distinction, in my opinion, of being the best production ever made of any story. I own the I Claudius-fabulous; enjoy at home as well the Forsyte Saga, the mesmerizing, ...             Mr. Brooks147 reviews Kevin Costner, Demi Moore MGM (Video & DVD), 2007 A Creepy, Thoughtful Thriller While some movies try to thrill you with a sub-standard plot, and others try to make you think and end up getting you confused, this movie finds the perfect balance between the two. The premise is that the main character, a successful, highly-regarded doctor played by Kevin Costner, finds his mind suddenly haunted by the overwhelming urge to commit murder. After a run as the most notorious ...             The Dreamers (Original Uncut NC-17 Version)205 reviews Michael Pitt (II), Eva Green 20th Century Fox, 2004 Everything you'd expect from Bertolucci Ah, NC-17. Possibly one of the dumber ratings out there. The concept is great! Tag movies, like this, that aren't made for kids but are for an adult audience, with a rating that keeps kids away. In principle this is great! In execution, it's been deeply flawed. Newspapers won't advertise films with this rating, most reviewers won't review them, and studios won't generally allow them to be ...             9 songs - Unrated Full Uncut Version89 reviews Kieran O'Brien, Margo Stilley Tartan Video, 2005 HOT! Sex, nakedness & rock music - what else could you want? I thought this movie was simple - it cut through all the filler you normally find in porn movies - unnecessary dialog, weak storyline etc... it go straight to the point - this is a movie about SEX & ROCK & ROLL & they abound :) I thought the sex scenes were excellent, there was real chemistry between the leads & they looked like they ...             Roman Holiday (Special Collector's Edition)170 reviews Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn Paramount, 2002 The best thing I know is to do exactly what you wish for a while. Possibly my favorite romance of all time, ROMAN HOLIDAY is a heart-wrenching, charming and timeless tale of a young Princess Ann(Audrey Hepburn) who runs away and ends up in the arms of wise newspaperman Joe Bradley(Gregory Peck). Of course through a handful of events by random happenstance Joe and Ann fall in love, and their chemistry is really beautiful. "Do you have a silk nightgown ...             Lonesome Dove [Blu-ray]12 reviews Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones Genius Products (TVN), 2008 Lonesome Dove - huge fan! It does not get any better than the Blu-ray version! Worth twice what I paid. This is the best example of what Blu-ray is capable of that I have seen. I watched this on a Panasonic 58" 1080p plasma, Sony PS3 and a mid-priced surround sound system. Seeing Lonesome Dove (Blu-ray) made the money I put out for this setup worth every penny!             Blazing Saddles (30th Anniversary Special Edition)323 reviews Richard Collier, Carol DeLuise Warner Home Video, 2004 l get no kick from champagne, mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all... ...l get a belt out of Blazing Saddles. Now l bet you're wondering why l'm singing and not reviewing. (Y0U BET Y0UR A--!!!) Well, the real people of Rock Ridge will love this movie, as will the fake ones. You'll love this movie more than a box of paddle-balls.             American History X649 reviews Edward Furlong, Beverly D'Angelo New Line Home Video, 1999 il più bel film mai realizzato! edward norton al top penso che questo sia il più bel film che io abbia mai visto. recitato meravigliosamente, diretto bene, fotografia bellissima... insomma il massimo! edward norton poi il miglior attore in circolazione oggi. è amato e apprezzato anche in Italia.             Miller's Crossing226 reviews Gabriel Byrne, Marcia Gay Harden 20th Century Fox, 2003 ALL WEEPY I thought I might go all weepy at the beauty of this film. Albert Finney, as Leo is a glorious stand-out--somehow I knew he would have on spats-- and his "come out blazing" scene is glorious. John Turturro is right on as a sniveling weasel, but Gabriel Byrne as Tom is a dream. All the way through the movie, I was wondering, is Tom planning all this, or is he ad libing as the needs of self ...             Moonstruck (Deluxe Edition)200 reviews Cher, Nicolas Cage MGM (Video & DVD), 2006 Moonstruck A great all-around movie especially if you're Italian or an Italian wannabe like my husband. We watch this movie several times a year. Cher is great in it and so is the ensemble cast. I highly recommend it!             American Graffiti (Collector's Edition)157 reviews Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard Universal Studios, 1998 Happy Days American Graffitti, released in 1974, takes place near Modesto California where George Lucas (the films director and co-writer) spent his high school years. One of Lucas's stated purposes in making this film was to document the practice of "cruising." For those of us that didn't grow up in that era cruising basically consists of driving around town all night looking for something to do.

Both the modern film and the nineteenth century novel were set in the French and Indian War and have some of the same characters. However, anyone who has read the book will quickly realize that the film is very different.
