SYLVIA Grindhouse Director Series Edition

Sonny Landham
After Hours Cinema, 2008
SYLVIA (1977) - Enter Sylvia, one of the more endearingly off-kilter efforts to emerge from the New York grindhouse scene and a film with such unique and unpredictable attributes that its status as a sex film seems to be the least conspicuous of its virtues. A whacking feature that sees itself as a cutting-edge psychodrama and exploitation movie with unsolicited intellectual and artistic aspirations, Sylvia manifests much of the best of the ...

Emmanuelle
Considering the limited budget and difficulty finding actors to play in Emmanuelle Arsan novel and the effort by the producers and director to stick to the original book in defiance to censorship of the times, I would rate the movie 5 Stars. Sylvia Kristel performance was a major force in the success and popularity of the movie. Other actors put in a fair effort in support. The story line is ...

The 11th Hour review
I've purchased and watched three different videos on global warming: "An Inconvenient Truth", "The Great Warming" and "The 11th Hour". There are advantages and disadvantages to each. "An Inconvenient Truth" does a great job of presenting the science behind GW but is not well received by some due to the political image of the narrator. "The Great Warming" a Canadian documentary film, is a very ...

the best Sylvia you will find.
Sylvia is a ballet rarely performed these days. This Royal Ballet version has superb dancers, the lovely Darcey Bussell, a fine score and good classical choreography. The ballet has a mythological story line that is as daffy and arbitrary as many fairy tales (statues coming to life, for example}, and it must be noted that there is little in the way of emotional and psychological depth. ...

Sylvia at last
Where do I start. I have always had recordings of Léo Delibes' ballet music, Coppélia and Sylvia. Sylvia's score is by far more richer and complex than that of Coppélia's. You might be familiar with the famous "Pizzicato Polka" from Act Two, scene Two. The rich orchestral colours which permeate this score, demand a production which will support them. Which brings me to this production. I should ...

A disservice to Sylvia
I'd have given this movie 3 stars if it weren't for the brilliant performances of its cast. Despite an unforgettable portrayal from Gwyneth Paltrow of a haunted, tormented soul in a performance that is almost disturbing, the film glossed over Sylvia Plath's relationship to her art while focusing mainly on her relationship to her husband, poet Ted Hughes. The movie version showed collaboration ...

Brilliant Collection
Katharine Hepburn was, and still is, the greatest Hollywood actress to grace the screen. This collection is a must as it features 6 fine films -stella performances by Hepburn in each- that had never before been released on Region 1 DVD. If you are a fan of Hepburn, or a fan of classic Hollywood films - buy this collection. The special features on each disk leave a bit to be desired ...

Teaching Yourself to Play the Harp
I bought this book years ago but only recently was I able to buy a harp. I don't read music and lessons aren't available in my town, so I bought the DVD to go with my book. Bingo! The perfect combination! The DVD is so professionally choreographed that each lesson is clear and easy to understand! You learn one lesson at a time, then go to the next. I can practice anytime I want (even at 3 AM). ...

One of the best official "Emmanuelle" films!
Following the hugely successful first Emmanuelle came this lushly photographed classic sequel, perhaps even surpassing the original. What it has in common with the first Emmanuelle: wonderful score, beautiful locations, and the lovely Sylvia Kristel. These are intelligent films with a sense of humour, much in the spirit of the novels the films are based on. Those looking for hardcore thrills ...

I originally was not going to buy this because of all of the changes i kept hearing about from people who were dissapointed that this release would not be all original. I consider myself a purist when it comes to tv and music and like things to be all original. As i found myself watching this show recently in syndication I found that i laughed just as hard as i did when it first aired and ...

Not as good as both Emanuelle & Private Lessions.
I was very disapionted that Sylvia Kristel did not wear the style of Stockings & Garter Belt that she wore in both Emauelle & Private Lessions. Also This Movie Julia was also not as exciting & Erotic as both Emanuelle & Private Lessions. So to all Sylvia Kristel Fans you skip this Boring piece.

Sleeping Beauty, Giselle, Swan Lake...step aside, there's a new Queen on the throne!
This beautiful Balanchine-choreographed story ballet doesn't get performed as much as it should because the heirs and executors of the Balanchine Trust will only grant permission to those ballet companies that are willing to keep true to Balanchine's steps as he created them. If I'm not mistaken, distribution rights to the original 1967 ballet-film with Suzanne Farrell have never been sold. In ...

As a youngster, I remember this movie well! If your a young woman you want to cheer Eric Brown our hero. And if your a young man, you want to be Eric Brown a wealthy young lad whos lucky enough to recieve the attentions of his ultra sexy houskeeper, the very comely Sylvia Kristel. Needles to say, this is every american boys fantasy. Add to this the very funny Howard Hessman as our protagonist, ...

The best character approach for an adult series
Of these films only the first is known as being a benchmark in erotic cinema and although none of the films are good all around there are things to enjoy about all of them. I find all of them beautifully photographed and locations, but the first one has the best storyline and I think that's why it's remembered so fondly. With that being said it's also too mild for my taste, but I can ...
The Joy of Flying / Sylvia im Reich der Wollust - PAL DVD
The beautiful Olivia Pascal (pictured below) is famous for her career in 80s TV in Germany, but this is the film that her fans are all looking for thanks to her wonderful nudity! In addition to Olivia, you'll also see "the goods" from wonderful Euro-actresses Corinne Cartier and Betty Vergès.

A Pretty Funny Movie
Before purchasing this movie, I've read a lot of reviews from all different sites. From people hating it to liking it to loving it, it was pretty complicated to decide. But being the Don Adams fan that I am I did the smartest thing... Okay,I bought it. I saw that he didn't exactly play Maxwell Smart but more like an Austin Powers type, women falling all over him, the strange colorful villian ...

Nicely done.
I am a D.H. Lawrence fan, but I purposely didn't re-read the book just before seeing this, because I wanted to judge the film on its own merits. I was a bit unsure about the role being handed to Sylvia Kristel, but she showed she's more than just Emmanuelle eye candy; she can actually act, and the movie comes across very well as literature-with-small-L as well as erotica. Highly recommended.
