Errol Flynn, Olivia de Havilland

MGM (Warner), 1994

Errol Flynn lights up the silver screen.
Never in the history of movies has anyone made a debut like this. Errol Flynn in his first major leading role as Captain Blood is a prize possession in any movie collection. This is the movie role that stole the "swashbuckler" mantel from Douglas Fairbanks, making Errol Flynn an instant star. Errol Flynn carries this movie with boldness, charm and a grand style. This is an exciting movie with ...

Dysfunctional When Dysfunctional Wasn't Cool
This family is a mess,complete with lying,spouse-stealing, and incest, and Bette Davis' character Stanley is the worst of the lot. StanleyTimberlake has to be one of the most repulsive characters ever to make it to the screen. Bette Davis makes her believable, though. Olivia deHavilland is the good sister, refreshingly calm and sane amidst the turmoil. Her family consistently ignores ...

My 10th Graders Love It
While all of the criticisms of this film are true to form: it exaggerates the visuals Shakespeare probably intended, Bottom has a wife and small subplot, the musical interludes are long and irrelevant, so is the praise of the film, most importantly being that Puck is captivatingly feral and likely the best Puck on film. What might be more important, even still, and is to me as instructor of ...

Hillarious Movie Inside Making a Movie by a Host of Great Actors
This comedy with a long list of famous acting legends was made to profit actors' charity to WWII efforts. Bette Davis makes her 1940's appearance as "thee" great actor of the era. Most of the performers are doing activities that they are not famous for! So Bette Davis' obvious well-built-up and deserved cameo performance involves her singing and dancing! Anyone who knows Bette Davis vita of ...

The Starkness Lingers
Watching THE SNAKE PIT is like peeking behind the curtains that are drawn around the cloistered walls of the mentally ill. Not many Americans, then or now, knew much about the treatment of those deemed incapable of living on their own due to mental defect. Director Anatole Litvak not only draws back those stifling curtains but does so in a way that asks of the reader to judge what can be ...

The Adventures of Robin Hood (Blue Ray)
If you already have the 2003 DVD edition, then you do not need the Blue Ray. But if don't already own this movie then the $10 for the Blue Ray edition is worth it. I did not see any real differences other than maybe picture and sound were a little crisper. The movie itself is a good representative of Hollywood's true golden years. Flynn and De Havilland made one of the best Hollywood couples. ...

I HAD TO BUY THIS MOVIE!
I never really buy movies but I had to buy this one because it seems every time I view it I see something new. It's soooo well acted and if you ever felt like you would like to go back to "Victorian" times, this movie will do it for you. Also, as someone else previously said, you're not quite sure if Morris deserted her because she was going to be disinherited and he didn't want HER to ...

MGM (Warner), 1998

ONE OF FLYNN'S BEST.
It is quite easy to completely write this film off unless it is watched with a certain mind-set. The story, the tale of the rise and well known fall of Gen. George Armstrong Custer, is so historically inaccurate that in many ways it is completely offensive. About the only aspect of the film is that the screen play does name the characters correctly; most of the time. All else is complete ...

WHAT A WONDERFUL MOVIE ABOUT THE GOOD OL DAYS
In a nut shell, this is a fantastic Jame Cagney movie. I would have to say that this ranks right up there alongside Yankee Doodle Dandy. The acting is first rate, the music is fantastic, especially the haunting background music (WHEN YOU WERE SWEET SIXTEEN)that is played when James and Olivia meet in the park. I also love the follow along singing of "And the Band Played On" at the end of the ...

BARGAIN PRICE FOR A CLASSIC TV EXPERIENCE
Wow, look at the price. Some of us were around watching for the original airing. Some watched reruns. Now everyone, young and old, can get back into this nostalgic, but never dated ROOTS experience. This set is 4 DVD (2-sided) 7 episodes plus a bonus and over 11 1/2 hours of history presented by over 50 television and film stars. This takes the Kunta Kinte family of Alex Haley's story "Roots" and ...

Classic Soap Opera Adventure w / A History Lesson
This Is a Classic, Layered Soap Opera Adventure. It takes place over a Generation In a Fictional Country In South America. All of It's principal characters are quite striking In their Beauty. All Necessary for a Soap Opera to Proceed. What I find Interesting Is that the Story evolves like so many of the Dictatorships In South America. You have a Brutal Dictator, giving No Quarter to his ...

Engrossing tale of an orphaned boy who grows into manhood, played by Fredric March (Anthony Adverse), without knowing his real origins, and all the adventures he has to go through, before finding "himself", what truly matters in life and what is worth fighting for...one's morals, which cannot be "traded" for power or money...all this he learns thanks to two priests: Father Xavier (Henry O'Neill) ...

Sister versus sister!
Two identical twins - Terry and Ruth Collins - are the main suspects when a doctor is murdered in his own consulting office. Several ocular witnesses testify to have seen accompanied by a beauty woman, but at the moment both of them are called to be identified, the chaos between the witnesses is obvious; because apparently they are identical. With the aim of Dr. Elliot, a connoted ...

One to remember for all time
If I had to refer one oldie on black and white film it would be this one. It's a tear-jerker that grasps the heart, with Olivia de Haviland as an unwed mother who tries to keep her child a secret, but the plan to keep him and conceal his identity backfires, leaving her to remain always in the background watching him grow up. It was a time when having a child outside of marriage was unthinkable ...

Ready for the big game?
First, I'm dismayed to see such a pitifully few(5)reviews for this great American classic (demonstrating that hardly anyone knows about this must see movie) and second, that it hasn't yet been transferred to DVD. It's social importance aside this is a first rate production featuring none-other-than Henry Fonda, Olivia de Havilland, Eugene Pallette, Jack Carson, Joan Leslie, Herbert ...
