Soldier's Daughter Never Cries: Unbalanced, But Interesting
About this cultural icon Marlene Dietrich, we have already a great documentary film "Marlene" by Maximillian Schell. Now here is a question: do we need another? Apparently, the answer is yes, as far as "Marlene Dietrich -- Her Own Song" is concerned, for it is directed by her own grandson J. David Riva. But don't expect the film to be about her as actress. As the title of the film suggest, ...

You need to understand the time
Those who find this insulting need to understand how things were at the time it was made. Appreciate that we have made a lot of progress since then, but to deny the absolute magical quality of this film would be a waste. This movie is a perrenial classic in my family. We watch it every year on Christmas Eve (along with "The Ref"). It takes you back to a time when life was so much simpler. I ...

2 of my favorite Christmas classics
I grew up watching these every year and have subjected my kids to the same tradition. Schmaltzy? You bet! Dated? You bet! But also great fun and clean content. Take a break this Christmas from R-rated movies, mind-numbing TV and rap music, pop some popcorn and enjoy! Oh, and BTW, It's a Wonderful Life is in B&W rather than color as Amazon has listed. Personally, I think I prefer it in ...

Laid-Back Highlights From Dino's Variety Show
Dean Martin's NBC variety show was truly one of a kind when it came to spontaneous, laid-back atmosphere. The late Greg Garrison, Martin's TV producer and director, compiled several highlight videos from the 1965-74 series. Volume 4 is among the best, with a memorable assortment of famous guests (ranging from Rosemary Clooney to Jimmy Stewart), unrehearsed skits (a Western spoof featuring Roy ...

Tgg Direct, 2005

Greatest comedy team of the 1950s
"The Colgate Comedy Hour" was an enormously popular early TV variety series. With a roster of regular hosts that included Abbott & Costello, Bob Hope, Jimmy Durante and Eddie Cantor, the show also had one or two-spot guest hosts, like Ray Bolger and Phil Silvers. The most popular Colgate headliners (and apparently the best-suited for live television) were the team of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. ...

Martin and Lewis -- kings of comedy even in the 21st century
I had no idea how funny and original the team of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis were. Thank God, these classic episodes were preserved. They are the quintessential examples of the Golden Era of television. In his prime, Jerry Lewis was amazing -- comic timing, facial expression, physical slapstick, original routines, skillful, and, most importantly, totally entertaining. Martin is the perfect ...

Garrison DVD Dated
Okay, first of all, I just would like to offer a bit of encouragement to all of those from the so-called 'greatest generation'. Please STOP STOP STOP gushing about the 'good old days' & a 'simpler time' & 'how comedy was so clean', WILL YOU? Do you have any freaking idea how all the later generations read all of this? Well, in case you don't, I'll tell you. We just shake our heads, roll our eyes, ...

Music, music, music
This DVD was a wonderful concert, with guests Rosemary Clooney and the Duke Ellington Orchestra. My only criticism is that it was too short. This makes a good addition to Feinstein's Great American Songbook. Enjoy! I did.

That's Real MTV
Get this DVD and play it on your TV and you've got real, melodic, Music TeleVision. Before she was seen as Mary Cavanaugh, meandering the hallways of her nephew's ER, Rosemary Clooney had her own musical/variety TV show. It was the 1950's - and it's Black and White, yet the glamorous, glitzy gowns still shine through. The title of this DVD means what it says. It's Rosemary (and invited ...

Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye

Old Time Classic
I have loved this movie ever since I was a young kid. It is a classic. I watch it every Christmas season just to get me in the spirit. We rarely get snow in South Carolina, but it helps to remind me a bygone days. It's just a fun little movie with some classic actors and actresses that are gone to movie heaven...at least, I hope.

Image Entertainment, 1998

An Affectionate and Misunderstood Wave to Radio
Since George Lucas had enough money from his Star Wars empire not to care what critics would say, he wrote and produced this affectionate nod to old time radio. It is a whacky slapstick farce with charm, moving faster than a speeding bullet. It is dopey and dumb, sweet and innocent, cornball and old-fashioned, just as it was meant to be. The jarring breakneck speed of it had critics thinking it ...
