Judy Garland, Frank Morgan

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), 1999

Timeless and Priceless
Okay, okay, so we've all grown up seeing this movie once a year! But, how can you not add it to your collection? The times of the yearly showing movies are dimmer now, so no reason not to have this just in case! Yeah, we all say "oh that's been around forever" but ...

Student Prince (1954)

Ann Blyth, Edmund Purdom

MGM (Warner), 1992

Like a fairytale
I'd had this video for years and can't tell you how many times I watched. It's like watching a beautiful fairytale. The setting, the costumes, the music are all beautiful. The entire cast superb. The only disappointing thing about this movie is that Mario Lanza did ...

Shadowlands (1993)

Julian Fellowes, Roddy Maude-Roxby

Hbo Home Video, 1995

Great movie...
Pass the popcorn around as you watch this movie. It is a sweet movie about finding love late in life and learning to live again.

Back Street

Susan Hayward, John Gavin

Universal Studios, 1993

Where is the DVD?
I love this movie and the only thing I could wish for now is for it to come out on DVD. Anyone have a clue when that might happen?

Yentl

Robbie Barnett, Lynda Baron

MGM (Video & DVD), 1992

Forget DVD. Release it to BluRay

Enchanted April (1991)

Josie Lawrence, Miranda Richardson

Paramount, 1994

Good News, DVD To Be Released Soon!
Many thanks to another review that provided a contact name and email address. I sent an email to Stuart Snaith many weeks ago, and just received a reply today (18 July 2008) from Liz Hammond. Liz said the problems over film rights have been resolved and the Enchanted ...

Pride & Prejudice (1995) (6pc) (Coll Box)

Saw

A&E Home Video, 1996

Excellent - much better than the Keira Knightley movie
If you want to watch Pride and Prejudice, then this is by far the best version. Jane Austen wrote a great novel, with fantastic prose and this production does it justice. It was a BBC series, and because it ran for a full hour (no commercials on the BBC!) for six ...

Majority of One

Rosalind Russell, Alec Guinness

Warner Home Video, 1994

After 43 years, I finally got to see the end
Back when I was 16 or 17 years old, I came home late one night after a date, and turned on the TV. A Majority of One was on, and I was soon wrapped up in the story. Believe it or not, as a teenager, I was totally enthralled by this story of a romance between two aging ...

Fantasia

Leopold Stokowski, Deems Taylor

Walt Disney Video, 1992

Wow! The First Music Videos and For Classical Music Too!
This movie was clearly way ahead of its time when it was released in the early 1940s and I'm not surprised that it was a box-office flop at that time as it struck me while watching this that this must be the "Sgt. Pepper's" of animation at that time. Another major ...

Mary Poppins

Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke

Walt Disney Video, 1997

"Bob's Your Uncle"
Released in `64 `Mary Poppins' is without question one of the most beloved movies in Disney's vast vault of wonderful family film classics. I was twelve years old when `Mary Poppins' made its theatrical debut and I must admit that I immediately fell madly in love with ...

The Thorn Birds - The Complete Miniseries

Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward

Warner Home Video, 1995

Excellent no matter what version its in (The first one,anyway)
I bought the video version years ago. I remember when The Thorn Birds first aired on broadcast TV. It was of such good quality. I thought the acting was excellent. I saw it multiple times on TV, and then bought the video when it first came out and was very ...

Made in Heaven

Timothy Hutton, Kelly McGillis

Warner Home Video, 1993

Enlightening
This has been my favorite video for the past thirteen years. My everyday thinking, as well as thought of action, has been altered ever since. It gives a perspective of the many pieces of life, and how they are put together, in accordance with, why one thinks the way ...

Naughty Marietta

Jeanette MacDonald, Nelson Eddy

MGM (Warner), 1998

I wish I could rate this movie 10 stars!
Naughty Marietta, winning the Oscar for Best Sound Recording in 1935, is the crown jewel of the Eddy/MacDonald films, holding a special place in anyone's heart that has ever had the pleasure of seeing it. It is esteemed as one of the best-loved operettas of all time, ...

Resurrection

Ellen Burstyn, Sam Shepard

Universal Studios, 1998

Only the Good Die ... an unrealeased dvd death!
I promise I will not go into my "where's the DVD rant", we all know its not even on the horizon. What a powerful film. A widescreen release with extras is all we ask. So many tapped into human emotions prevail in this story of a semi-reluctant miracle worker. Its all ...
