Capra challenges America
Jefferson Smith is the quintessential naïve, honest hero that Stewart played in his early years. Smith fills an unexpired US Senate seat as the result of a coin toss. Ignorant of the games that Washington plays, he assumes that that his job is to represent the folks at home passionately and honestly. Like Don Quixote, Smith tilts windmills: he stands up against the corrupt Senator Joseph Harrison ...

Gone with the Wind (Four-Disc Collector's Edition) 1939 Excellent movie, excellent price. I got it for free shipping, but it took almost two weeks to get to me. I think it is worth the extra few bucks to get stuff sooner.

It's a Wonderful Set
"It's a Wonderful Life" is not only the best Frank Capra film, it's one of the best films ever. Some would want to limit to that to a genre, but if popularity counts for anything, it would be the people's choice. What's number two in the Caprian list? I'd say Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. In my view this Cooper vehicle is quite a bit better than Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, although in some ways they ...

Dead for 50 Years, Tyrone Power is Still Big Box Office
Tyrone Power died on November 15, 1958. In 2007, 20th Century Fox released a five-disk set of Power's swashbuckler films and was overwhelmed by its success - so overwhelmed, in fact, that a year later, they are following it up with 10 more films, the majority of which are from Power's early days at the studio where he spent about 17 years of his 22-year career. In addition, Power's anniversary ...

The Big-Box Swindle of Bedford Falls
For many, "It's A Wonderful Life" is a staple to their holiday traditions. With all major networks vying to get their hands on this mediocre blockbuster, this little film transforms from ordinary to cult status every holiday. As a viewer, outside of the final act, this Jimmy Stewart classic is more than just a Christmas movie, but instead a powerful Capra film that demonstrates an America from ...

Technicolor Treasure
Why did they ever stop using technicolor film? Some of the best old movies (Gone With the Wind, Ten Commandments, Wizard of Oz) stand the test of time because of the exceptional color that made costumes, scenery, and people seem to leap off the screen. The Black Swan is a visual treat: lots of color and beauty, not only on handsome Tyrone Power and beautiful Maureen O'Hara, but also in ...

Elegance
What a beautiful film! What a fair film! What a great story! Hollywood is afraid to make movies with this much integrity and truth today. There was an elegance and a reality to this story that today's films do not know. Peck is wonderful and the Chinese characters are never patronized. They sometimes steal the scene, and for the time it was made, this is wonderful. Seminaries should use this film ...

Lost Horizon

Ronald Colman, Jane Wyatt

Sony Pictures, 1999

a true cinema classic
Frank Capra's LOST HORIZON, based on the bestselling novel by James Hilton, is truly one of the milestones of modern fantasy cinema. The cast is impeccable, the sets inspired, and audience fascination for the material has only increased throughout the years. This DVD presents the film complete and restored to it's original 132 minute theatrical running-time. British diplomat Robert Conway ...

Don't shove me Harv. I'm tired of being shoved.
High Noon (Two-Disc Ultimate Collector's Edition) Quite a bit has been said about this film. Then again, it's 56 years old. Forget about the Hollywood blacklist period, the trouble behind the scenes, and any politically inclined agenda. This is probably the first adult western that "holds up". A good script. A good director. A good cast. A good soundtrack. All on a small budget ...

Honeydripper

Vondie Curtis-Hall, Charles S. Dutton

Universal Studios, 2008

Excellent
Honeydripper is probably one of the best movies I've seen in the last year or so, besides the Great Debaters. Danny Glover gives a great performance of a bar/club owner who has to compete with the new sounds of the day, rock & roll, as opposed to the blues singing that was the prominent popular music along with Jazz for so many years. It's set in the south and portrays things the way they were ...

Perfect Addition to my Trilogy Favorite!
My nieces and nephews have loved the Santa Claus movies as well as myself. Yes, I admit the kid in me loves these movies just as much. I have added this movie and have my 'trilogy' complete. We watch them every Christmas and have Santa Clause parties... Great Movie! Merna Throne Pocket of Pearls: A 30-day pocket workbook to start hearing a softer voice inside of you!

Claire Trevor, John Wayne

A Classic Western
Stagecoach DVD It's been made more than once, but I don't think it's been made better. This is a classic in every sense of the word. John Wayne in one of his earliest movies plays the Ringo Kid or just Ringo to my friends. A confederate gambler, an alcoholic ex-Union doctor, a woman of ill-repute with a heart of gold, a crooked banker, a whiskey drummer with samples and a fat and ...

Beauty and the lovestruck beast
This classic 1939 movie remains one of my favorites of all time. I first saw it at the age of 8-10 years on our old black and white TV. The images I saw mesmerized me and have stayed clearly in my mind through the years. Charles Laughton invokes a wide range of emotion while playing the lovelorn Parisian hunchback Quasimodo and all beneath large amounts of prosthetics. His love of the woman who ...

One of my favorite comedies
"My Cousin Vinny" is a real gem, a perfect, funny, smart comedy, a very rare kind that I can watch and enjoy over and over again no matter how many times I've seen it and from what scene I watch it. This is one of my three all time favorite English language comedies along with "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" and "A Fish Called Wanda". When I think of it, all three share the same concept - playing the ...
