Happy Ending (1969)2 reviews
Jean Simmons, John Forsythe
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
vodka straight up and marriage on the rocks
+ One of Darin's best, although briefest, movie roles
Though this film was made in 1969, it is a portrait of many contemporary women, who are drowning in a sea of their emotions, and letting the awareness of their feelings supersede a rational appraisal of their situation, ending with the use of alcohol/pills to "manage" their moods. I know far too ...

A Doll's House 3 reviews
Jane Fonda, Edward Fox
United Home, 1998
"You are first and foremost a wife and mother."
Filmed in 1973, this Joseph Losey-directed adaptation of Henrik Ibsen's play feels fragmented, its message sacrified to the lovely cinematography, stunning costumes, and then-controversial star. In Ibsen's play, Nora gradually changes from being a brainless doll to a woman who realizes that she ...

Chief Two-Bucks!
+ "Maggie's got a man in the room!"
+ A Joyful Film
Though nearly forgotten today, this charming and enjoyable comedy musical directed by Tay Garnett and starring Irene Dunne and Douglas Fairbanks Jr. is a little gem. My favorite studio from the 1930's, RKO, surrounded this good story by Dorothy and Herbert Fields with top production values and some ...

Beethoven's Nephew1 review
Wolfgang Reichmann, Dietmar Prinz
Starmaker Entertainment, 1994
Daring subject
Independent filmmaker Morrissey sheds his well-deserved reputation as a sensationalistic chronicler of life on the fringe in this thoughtful and opulent story of the destructively possessive relationship between Ludwig Von Beethoven and his handsome nephew. In a rewrite of history, Morrissey shows ...

A Fun Family Film

+ Very Pleasant , Light Football Comedy!!
This is a warm and amusing film that rates high as a film you can enjoy with the entire family. Mary Loos and Richard Sale had a hand in the screenplay and once again a young Natalie Wood shows how talented she was as a child star. The versatile Fred MacMurray and Maureen O'Hara have a warm ...

Anthony Perkins, Jane Fonda
Warner Home Video, 1992
Very Funny- a unique little sleeper!
+ More proof positive. . .
+ Fantastic Movie/ Tall Story With Tony Perkins & Jane Fonda.
This film is not like too many I've seen. It has a very odd comic tone(I've only felt this kind of odd sexual energy when watching something like Pretty Maids All In A Row). Jane Fonda plays a young girl who's come to college to get married-that's all. She is a huge basketball fan-especially of ...
