DVD: butterflies     DVD:       A Sound of Thunder (Widescreen Edition)92 reviews Armin Rohde, Heike Makatsch Warner Home Video, 2006 Those that rate at 1 or 2 must only watch block busters This movie was exactly what I would expect for a regular Sci-Fi video, or made for TV or B movie. I'm guessing that all those those who rated this video as 1 or 2 are the type of movie renter who only picks from the new releases or top picks video sections at the rental store. The CGI was good for a low budget and the sets were good. The acting was OK not great but better than I have seen on ...             Barbie Mariposa and Her Butterfly Friends43 reviews Universal Studios, 2008 Another good continuation of this series My 7-year old daughter really enjoys this movie, and had watched it at least 5 times in the first 2 weeks. The first time she watched it, I watched it with her, and at no time was I completely bored with the story. The animation in this series continues to improve with each new release. The voice-acting is good, and the story is enjoyable, with characters that keep the viewer interested. In ...             In the Time of the Butterflies32 reviews Salma Hayek, Edward James Olmos MGM (Video & DVD), 2002 A fair overview of real History A friend of mine who is also interested in History told me about this movie and I am glad I bought it. It deals with a real part of the Dominican Republic's History. Maybe it is not accurate, but it sticks to the fact that Trujillo was a cruel dictator in that country for many years, just as "La Fiesta del Chivo" (Vargas Llosa) did. Made in English for the American public, it misses the fact that ...             Essential Classics - Romances (Gone with the Wind / Casablanca / Doctor Zhivago)9 reviews Thomas Mitchell, Barbara O'Neil Warner Home Video, 2007 Three Super Movies I got this DVD for a girls weekend. It was three great classics for the weekend.             The Butterfly Effect (Infinifilm Edition)471 reviews Ashton Kutcher, Melora Walters New Line Home Entertainment, 2004 Good value, good movie $8.99 is an excellent deal for this movie. It's very original, and Kutcher and Smart play their parts perfectly. If you liked this movie in theaters then definitely buy this because it's a classic movie to add to your collection. And it's nice to have all the Infinifilm bonus features.             Papillon75 reviews Steve McQueen, Dustin Hoffman Warner Home Video, 2005 PAPILON For any STEVE McQEEN FANS out there this will make a fine addtion to your STEVE McQUEEN DVD COLLECTION I wish they will come out with a speacal edtion of this movie like they did with COOL HAND LUKE.             The Diving Bell and the Butterfly56 reviews Mathieu Amalric, Emmanuelle Seigner Miramax, 2008 The Diving Bell and The Butterfly The Diving Bell and the Butterfly Some lines from the script that will give you a flavor of Jean-Dominique Baubly (Jean-Do) and the circumstance of his life. I am a vegetable, lying in my bed unable to move. My whole body is encased in a kind of diving suit. I have decided to stop pitying myself. Other than my eye, two things aren't paralyzed. My imagination. And my memory. These are ...             Gone with the Wind (Four-Disc Collector's Edition) 1939713 reviews Clark Gable, Thomas Mitchell Warner Home Video, 2004 Gone With the Wind Gone with the Wind (Four-Disc Collector's Edition) 1939 Excellent movie, excellent price. I got it for free shipping, but it took almost two weeks to get to me. I think it is worth the extra few bucks to get stuff sooner.             Puccini - Madame Butterfly / Huang, Troxell60 reviews Ying Huang, Richard Troxell Sony Pictures, 2002 Butterfly, The Movie I've seen Butterfly at San Francisco, Lyric Opera of Chicago and at numerous other venues, so it's an opera whose nuances I think I know pretty well. I cannot imagine any performance that I've ever seen of any opera that didn't have something I wished had been done differently, but picking apart this presentation really is difficult. OK, the 'floating relatives' were a little too Hollywood, but ...             Duel in the Sun44 reviews Gregory Peck, Joseph Cotten MGM (Video & DVD), 2004 A love with two faces! "Duel in the sun" is the "Gone with the wind" of the Western genre. The movie begins with a warning, a cactus flower that epitomizes and warns us about the tragic love of Perla Chavez , a free and gentle flower who grew wild, a half bred girl who was born signed by the disgrace. She is witness of her mother' s death by the hands of her own father, who sends her to his second cousin Laura Belle, ...             The Mosquito Coast Jason Alexander, Melanie Boland Warner Home Video, 2008             Gone with the Wind713 reviews Thomas Mitchell, Barbara O'Neil Warner Home Video, 2000 Gone With the Wind Gone with the Wind (Four-Disc Collector's Edition) 1939 Excellent movie, excellent price. I got it for free shipping, but it took almost two weeks to get to me. I think it is worth the extra few bucks to get stuff sooner.             Butterfly1 review Pia Zadora, Stacy Keach Industrial Ent, 2008 Pia on DVD! I'm gonna get a lot of heat for this, but I'm a fan of Pia Zadora. I don't think she's the greatest actress or personality or even singer, but there's something about her that makes me giggle. Sure, she's been in a lot of questionable movies (to my count, her husband financed four of them - BUTTERFLY, FAKE-OUT, THE LONELY LADY, and VOYAGE OF THE ROCK ALIENS), but she seems to have a wicked sense ...             The Blue Butterfly15 reviews William Hurt, Pascale Bussières Monterey Video, 2006 fabulous family film This is a heart warming and uplifting film with terrific acting and beautiful locations.I felt so moved by William Hurt's performance and the young lad is quite talented!             Day of the Nightmare / Scream of the Butterfly2 reviews Nélida Lobato, Nick Novarro Image Entertainment, 2003 Sixties sexploitation films with some psychological twists This double feature DVD from the people at Something Weird offers up a pair of sexploitation flicks from the 1960s. In "Day of the Nightmare" (a.k.a. "Don't Scream, Doris Mays") , Jonathan Crane (Cliff Fields) is an artist who makes bad nude sketches of his model. Then she makes the mistake of offering to make love to his "way." The next thing we know the model has disappeared and is presumed ...             Puccini - Madama Butterfly31 reviews Mirella Freni, Plácido Domingo Deutsche Grammophon, 2005 comparaison non comparaison.. Reading some of the other reviews here, I wonder if I'm in the same universe. I feared this dvd for a long time, having been bleached of hope by years of indifferent if not hostile reviews and commentary about it. I think Puccini planned that NO performance of Butterfly would ever truly be sufficient, truly right. But surely, Ponnelle's valiant film effort comes close. For me, closer than any ...             02 in H20 - A Self Help Course on Breathing in Swimming - A Total Immersion Instructional DVD1 review Terry Laughlin Bayview Entertainment/Widowmaker, 2007 Extremely useful skillset I never learned how to swim as a child, but am fairly athletic and can run 10 miles at a time at a good pace. I finally decided to learn how to swim over the last year, but was surprised that I was always short of breath after 1-2 laps in a 25 meter pool, even when I wasn't sprinting. I knew I was doing something wrong, and this DVD was extremely helpful in correcting the way I was breathing to ...             Butterfly29 reviews Fernando Fernán Gómez, Manuel Lozano (II) Miramax, 2001 Childhood Innocence Abused By Political Strife 'La Lengua de las mariposas' (BUTTERFLY) is a small miracle of a film, one of those magical experiences that reminds us about the beauty of life but also about the realities of living in a world ruled by politics and adversity and how all of that affects the vulnerable child. The Spanish title refers to the tongue of the butterfly that must trust the throat of a flower to deliver its nectar and ...             Cabin in the Sky47 reviews Ethel Waters, Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson Warner Home Video, 2006 Cabin In The Sky This is a great classic. I remember watching this movie with my mother and father when I was a child. Ethel Waters - singing "Little Joe", Rochester dancing - my father use to dance the same way - it really brings back memories. Every black family should have this in their collection. Thank you Amazon for stocking this and other great classics!             Bugs! A Rainforest Adventure8 reviews Judi Dench Image Entertainment, 2007 BREATHTAKING JOURNEY INTO ANOTHER WORLD This incredibly beautiful film is like a trip to the outer edges of Eden. The stunning cinematography is a sight to behold again and again. Judi Dench's measured voice work is a perfect match. This film reminds me a little of "Micro Cosmos" in tone and style. I have an affection for the great beauty of the natural world caught on film. I find it reassuring and also somewhat disturbing that ...              search for DVDs adventure, barbie, breathing, butterflies, butterfly, casablanca, classics, collector, course, diving, edition, essential, four-disc, friends, immersion, infinifilm, instructional, madama, mariposa, mosquito, nightmare, papillon, puccini, rainforest, romances, swimming, thunder, troxell, widescreen, zhivago DVD:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
