Lauren Bacall

Gregory Peck, Lauren Bacall

MGM (Warner), 1994

The Original Sex and the City
In this film, Lauren Bacall hilariously portrays the quintessential high-society, high-fashion New Yorker. While on a trip to Beverly Hills, she meets and spontaneously marries the wonderful Gregory Peck - an unassuming sports writer who has no idea exactly what he's ...

Madeline: Lost in Paris

Lauren Bacall, Jason Alexander

Walt Disney Home Video, 1999

A Delightful Classic
I am 11 years old. This was a wonderful movie. Madeline gets kidnaped by her "uncle", but it teaches children to be wary around strangers. She goes to a lace-making sweat shop. Madeline befriends a young girl who has been there longer and has become ill. The villains ...

Big Sleep (1946)

Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

Bogart at his best
Humphrey Bogart was probally the big screen's best reprsentive of the hard boiled prive eye, and this film gave him a superlative chance to demonstrate this. the film has been critized for failing to tie up some loose ends-a murder never gets solved, for example-but ...

How to Marry a Millionaire

Betty Grable, Marilyn Monroe

20th Century Fox, 2001

Hilarious
These women will go to great lengths to land a rich husband, even if that means selling all they have, living on hot dogs, and going to high society parties to stake out the millionaires. The performances from all three of these actresses are amazing! You can't help ...

Misery

Lauren Bacall, Kathy Bates

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

I love this movie...very good!!!!
This movie is so incredible!! A great thriller!! This is definately Kathy Bates' best movie EVER!! James Caan is excellent in it as well. Must have movie!!

To Have and Have Not

Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

On My Must-Have List
No, it's not CASABLANCA - that's kinda the point. It's a smaller, more precious version of essentially the same story line, and it's got Bogie falling head over heels for Bacall right in front of your eyes. Okay okay, so she doesn't sing that well - who needs singing ...

Murder on the Orient Express

Albert Finney, Lauren Bacall

Paramount, 1998

A Visually Beautiful, Clever, Well-Acted, and Faithful Adaptation
MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS is an impressive movie. Well-acted, beautifully shot and lit, and with a sharp tongued script and stunning sets, it is a masterpiece, much like the genius book by Agatha Christie is considered today. The story follows detective Hercule ...

Harper

Paul Newman, Lauren Bacall

Warner Home Video, 1995

Newman At His Best
Besides this being just a flat out great detective story, it has style and character. It's great entertainment, and solid acting from all involved like Robert Wagner, Julie Harris and Arthur Hill. If you like beautiful damsels in distress, you won't find one anymore ...

Sex and the Single Girl

Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood

Warner Home Video, 1998

why no dvd?
This a classic comedy. It should be released on DVD. Who wants to buy VHS anymore?

From The Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

Lauren Bacall, Jean Marie Barnwell

Hallmark, 1996

Fine book and a Fine film!!
I, as most of the other reviewers, began with the book as a child and saw the film later. This was one of my favorite books as a child and I remember the film THE HIDEAWAYS that was made 30 years ago. I loved the book and the THE HIDEAWAYS was okay, although it has ...

The Shootist

John Wayne, Lauren Bacall

Warner Home Video, 1997

"THE DUKE " SAVES THE BEST FOR LAST!
'The Shootist' is a great picture, if not a bit eerie that it echoes the tragic fate of it's beloved legendary star. It's even stranger that John Wayne was not the first choice to star in this film! Can you imagine this film with anyone else playing his part? When ...

Blood Alley

Lauren Bacall, George Chan

Warner Home Video, 1992

:)
This is so cheesy and hammy, that I love it. Also, it helps that is was shot quite beautifully. "The bleeding heart of China--you can pin one on me, baby." Or something to that effect. Delightful cheese.

Appointment With Death

Peter Ustinov, Lauren Bacall

Warner Home Video, 1999

"I never forget a name or a face."
Mr. Boynton (whom we never see) passes away. Mrs. Emily Boynton (Piper Laurie) who used to be a matron in a prison is hard as tacks. She blackmails the family lawyer (David Soul) into burning a recent will, and preserving an earlier one that gave everything to Emily. ...

Humphrey Bogart Collection : The Big Sleep, Casablanca, and Key Largo

Humphrey Bogart, Edward G. Robinson

MGM (Video & DVD), 1997

Strongly recommend for any Bogart fan.
Series contains "The Big Sleep", "Key Largo" and "Casablanca", the latter of which is, of course, my favorite. However the others merit applause as well. Bogart, Robinson, Greenstreet, Raines, Bacall, Bergman...all the greats. Play 'em again, Sam.
