James Dean - Forever Young 9 reviews
Elia Kazan, Gusti Huber
Warner Home Video, 2005
A must buy for James Dean fans...
James Dean - Forever Young is a fascinating documentary into the life of James Dean, a lot of thought & effort has obviously gone into the production of this short (around an hour in length) documentary.
My advice? Ignore any negative remarks about Forever Young from people who haven't even seen a Jimmy Dean film before (why would anyone watch a documentary on his life if they have never seen ...

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World308 reviews
Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle
MGM (Video & DVD), 2001
Great cast at their best
What a treat to see the finest comedic talent that we will ever see together in a hilarious production. Each of these legendary performers are marvelous and none of them overact. There is no competition between them, but a wonderful blending of talent that is from the better days of entertainment.

Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz Jr.
Paramount, 2002
Behind the Greatest Show of all Time!!
I LOVE LUCY!! This show was really a big hit. It was bigger than big. In this video they go behind the scenes of "I Love Lucy." They even go to Jamestown, New York to show you where Lucille ball grew up. They talk about Lucy and Rickys childhood backgrounds. This is full of information that any Lucy fan would find interresting if you don't know it already. Its worth the money. They even have ...

Evil Roy Slade45 reviews
Edie Adams, John Astin
Timeless Media Group, 2008
Evil Roy Slade
It may have begun as a mere Movie of the Week, but it ended up as a marvelous stand-alone comedy film; one of Garry Marshall's best!
The scene where Evil Roy has to figure out how a shoe horn works in the civilized world is alone well worth the price of admission.
Sparkling dialog, fantastic sight gags, and a surprisingly sympathetic villain who wants to finally quit being an cruel bank ...

Very Funny
There are so many laughs in this film.Must be one of Woody Allen's best.
I could watch it again and again and it never loses it's humor.
Mia Farrow and Woody Allen are just perfect in their roles.
Brilliant and highly recommended.

The Loved One62 reviews
Robert Morse, Jonathan Winters
Warner Home Video, 2006
Wonderful Value-Rare Movie
I am a Funeral Director and this movie is a, "black" comedy about the funeral industry. It is in black and white and was shot in the mid 60's. A cast of very famous people in it. It is considered a cult classic by people in the funeral industry. It is also pretty hard to get a hold of a good copy of it, especially on DVD.
I have purchased this same DVD several times for gifts for friends ...

The Mark of Zorro14 reviews
Douglas Fairbanks, Noah Beery
Image Entertainment, 1999
Douglas Fairbanks is soooo hot
Fairbanks made this movie around 1920 when he was just starting out. He did all his own stunts, and knowing this made it that much cooler watching him go go go. Fairbanks plays painfully awkward nobleman Don Diego and his alter-ego Zorro - the champion of the downtrodden. In both disguises he courts the lovely Lolita.
This movie has the blend of action and humor that will be familiar from ...

The Unknown Marx Brothers20 reviews
Leslie Nielsen, Margaret Dumont
Winstar, 2000
High marx!
For longtime fans this is absolutely essential, especially for those of us who enjoy researching those missing pieces of the puzzle - the "unknown" stuff. There are many segments here which will leave the most determined sleuth slack-jawed. We've read about many of these late career MB TV appearances and we are treated to lengthy excerpts - so many documentaries offer "slide show" bits and ...

Storyville Films, 2007
The Spike Jones Story
A must have for the devoted Spike Jones and The City Slickers fan.
Not much is available on DVD for this crazy and creative band so buy this. You won't be sorry. Video and sound are excellent!
Until the Spike Jones video tapes Volumes 1 through 4 are transferred to DVD this DVD and the Colgate hour ones are the only ones available for now.
Buy and enjoy!

Milton Berle, Herschel Bernardi
Bci / Eclipse, 2007
GREAT! A TRUE CLASIC!
This film is completely star studded, see it! It's hard to come by, but it's a truly heart warming film. It shows the true bond between Dorothy and the Scarecrow. Oh, and if you like this, you'll love the Wizard of Oz cartoon series that ran in the early 90's. It's on toon disney at 4:00 a.m. every sunday and monday mornings. I tape it every week!

Norm Crosby, Buddy Hackett
White Star, 2004
A Must-See For Comedy Lovers
I saw this when it played on Cinemax about a year ago. Very funny stuff. It has great interviews with legends like Milton Berle, Buddy Hackett, Sid Caesar and Steve Allen. Also, unbelievable, and incredibly rare, roast footage. Very, very entertaining.

Childhood reborn!
If you are a late baby boomer like myself, you may remember the early black and white Honeymooners on late, late night television. Or at other odd hours on local TV stations playing over and over in endless re-runs. You probably actually watched the full color weekly broadcasts ("from Miami Beach, the fun and sun capital of the world")that comprise this collection. From the camera racing over ...
