Great story-great cast
Very entertaining movie.(I've heard that's what movies are supposed to be) Great casting and I thought it was very believable. Gerard Butler has charisma and is an excellent actor. Hillary Swank was very good. The whole cast was excellent. I've seen the movie 5 times. I finally gave up and bought the DVD after seeing it 3 times. I'm old but in my life time, I've only seen 3 men actors just ...

Cyrano de Bergerac

Gérard Depardieu, Anne Brochet

MGM (Video & DVD), 2004

One of the high water marks of French cinema
Jean-Paul Rappeneau's wonderfully cinematic version of Cyrano De Bergerac is one of the genuine high water marks of modern French cinema. Rappeneau is a director who really understands movement, and his far from static approach revitalizes the piece and frees it from the tyranny of the wonderful words to give it wings, while Gerard Depardieu's magnificent Cyrano keeps the film's emotions ...

Great show for early reading skills
My three-year-old adores this show. After he saw it once, he wanted to watch it every morning, but he usually wakes up after the broadcast. So I purchased this one, and it's great. He's really learning from it -- not just literacy skills, but social skills as well. He often talks about the characters and storylines ("Sh-sh-shark!") and applies the same patterns in his everyday speech, such as ...

another winner from Leap Frog
The Leap Frog series of DVDs has been such a great tool in helping our child learn to read. The Letter Factory made learning the sounds of letters fun. Talking Words Factory helps teach putting letters together to make words with the short vowel sounds. Now Code Word Caper takes it to the next level, teaching kids about the silent e that changes short vowels to long vowels: the vowels say their ...

Eulogy delivered by Franz Grillpazer in the Wahring Cemetery at the Maestro's funeral: Ludwig van Beethoven, the man who inherited and increased, the immortal fame of Handel and Bach of Haydn and Mozart is now no more. He was an artist. And who will stand beside him? He was an artist. And what he was, he was only through music. The thorns of life ...

Great Video!
I bought this for my 18 month old son and he loves it. He knew all of his letter sounds within two weeks. He does not even know how to pronounce all of the letters but knows what each one sounds like. He points to every letter he sees and sounds it out. I did not expect him to learn so fast. He will be reading before I know it.

My son is 2 1/2 and loves this movie. Since watching it he's taken a great interest in shapes (particularly triangles)! This DVD is also great for helping him continue to learn his letters.

Worth watching
I had never heard of this movie but ran across it while looking for something to rent. I had high hopes for this movie based purely on Flex being in this movie. I have never seen him in anything not worth while. True to form this movie delivered for me. I enjoyed the story. The movie is full of great actors and actresses. The hilarious Tasha Smith, Essence Atkins and of course Tangi Miller. I ...

My daughter loves it!
My 18 month old is obsessed with letters and the alphabet, so I purchased this DVD. She enjoys Sesame Street as well, so I thought this would be good. She is GLUED to this video whenever I put it on! She dances when they sing the alphabet. I would have liked to see more of the old school characters on this video, like Grover, Oscar, Ernie, Bert and Cookie Monster (Ernie and Cookie Monster are ...

Decca, 2007

Sumptuous, beautiful - the way La Traviata should be.
This production contrasts sharply with the one from Salzburg one year earlier (Willy Decker), and is tons better directed by Mrs. Marta Domingo. The singers? Renee Fleming, though not as young as Anna Netrebko, is not one jot 'older' in every sense: vocally, visually, pscychologically. Her Violetta is utterly believable, tradition-bound, authentic to the utmost. She is charming, sophisticated, ...

Amazing!!
My 18m old started watching this DVD, along with shapes, letters and colors at 16m. She now knows all her colors, can count to 10 and has all letter recognition. My friends and family are amazed with what she knows at such a young age. The characters are cute and colorful but not over the top. Some kids like it and some kids don't depending on their attention span. My daughter actually asks for ...

A remake of Cyrano
This is a Steve Martin remake of the classic Cyrano. And in my opinion one of his best efforts. (right next to "My Blue Heaven". Of course i bought it.
