The Red Balloon
This has been a favorite classic since I first saw it in the 50's. Finally it is on a DVD which I sent to my daughter to share with my grandchildren. Of course, I included a package of large RED balloons.
  
  











  



  
Get Smart: The Complete Series3 reviews
Don Adams, Barbara Feldon

Sony Pictures, 2008

The 7-episode 1995 Fox Series - NOT the original series
If you think you're getting the complete, original (1965) Get Smart series, make no mistake. The original series is still available only directly from Time-Life, and is still $199.95. This is the brief (7 episode) Get Smart revival series which aired on Fox in 1995. The series brings back Don Adams (now chief of CONTROL), Barbara Feldon (now a congresswoman), and David Ketchum (Agent 13), ...

Mission Impossible - The Fourth TV Season16 reviews
Barbara Anderson

Paramount, 2008

I have accepted this mission...
Used to watch this on CBS TV on Saturday evenings at 7 PM CST with my aunt/babysitter. Most of these episodes I remember seeing in re-runs years ago on FX...except for "The Submarine". This brought back memories of seeing it in first run...without dealing with the commercials. Just waiting for the last three seasons from the 60's/70's to be released. Am wondering if Viacom will be releasing ...
  
  











  



  
The Thief of Bagdad - Criterion Collection9 reviews
Sabu, Conrad Veidt

Criterion Collection, 2008

WHY BUY THE CRITERION VERSION? THE SOUND!
It's true that both the Criterion and MGM releases of "The Thief of Bagdad" come from the BFI (British Film Institude) restoration and that the Technicolor look is well served on both discs, but there is at least one major reason to up grade to the Criterion release and that is the SOUND! Miklos Rozsa's score for this film is one of the greatest of all-time, but it was a challenge to capture his ...
  
  











  



  
Fox Western Classics (Rawhide / The Gunfighter / Garden of Evil)11 reviews
Gregory Peck, Tyrone Power

20th Century Fox, 2008

Garden Of Evil is in 4 channel sound!!
Garden Of Evil a nice surprise if you have a Dolby Digital surround sound system in your home theater. 3 channels across the front with one surround channel in back. That mixed with the widescrren picture in Technicolor makes for an excellent presentation. The other 2 movies are only in mono in their original full screen format. Still they are prestine transfers. I'll be playing all 3 of these ...
  
  











  



  
Mary Poppins (40th Anniversary Edition)302 reviews
Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke

Walt Disney Video, 2004

"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 Julie Andrews. Obviously I wasn't the only one considering the fact that Julie Andrews won the Academy Award for Best Actress for ...

Sound Of Music with reunion of actors and actresses
Most everyone has seen Sound of Music, but this fortieth anniversary of the film includes a reunion of those who made it so well. I thoroughly enjoyed watching every moment.

The Matrix of its time
I love this movie and often refer to it when I am teaching classes or talking with people about creating the life of their dreams. The characters are so rich in symbolism and this latest version is a testament to what technology can do. I was amazed by how clear the images were. Kansas was so crisp and clear and Oz was just amazing. Seeing is believing!! This latest version is well worth ...

The Wild Wild West - Season Four
I was very happy to see more of this old series. I would have liked to have seen more information about the episodes themselves, such as the title of each episode, air date, and guest stars. My family has bought several of past seasons; the Wild Wild West is a FUN series that adults can enjoy but it is also appropriate of younger viewers!
  
  











  



  
To Kill a Mockingbird (Collector's Edition)357 reviews
Gregory Peck, John Megna

Universal Studios, 1998

Storytelling cannot get any better than this!
Without much knowledge of history behind the acclaimed author Truman Capote, I watched the film "Capote" sometime back, and was interested in knowing more about his childhood friend Harper Lee and the her Pulitzer prize willing novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" mentioned in the film. After reading the reviews, I realized that this novel is tagged as the book of the century in American literature by ...

Scarlett O'Hara against the Whole World!
As Reviewer Gary F. Taylor clearly states in his excellent review do not expect historical accuracy nor political-correctness from this film. More than 60 years has elapsed since it was filmed and IMHO it will be unfair to focus on those two items to evaluate it. The story is well known; still I'll sketch it for reviewing convenience. Scarlett O'Hara is a very young & mercurial wealthy ...
  
  











  



  
The Longest Day (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)187 reviews
Eddie Albert, Paul Anka

20th Century Fox, 2006

A sprawling Hollywood interpretation of D-Day
"The Longest Day" is a sprawling depiction of one of the most critical battles of World War II, D-Day, the invasion of France through Normandy's beaches. Darryl Zanuck, as head of 20th Century Fox, fastened upon Cornelius Ryan's bestselling book and decided to acquire the rights and make the movie. First, the all-star cast is worthy of note. Included in the cast: John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, ...
  
  











  



  
It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World304 reviews
Spencer Tracy, Milton Berle

MGM (Video & DVD), 2003

One of the Funniest Movies Ever!
Not to be missed, this star studded film provides laughs aplenty as they search for a dad convicts stolen loot (350 Gees!). So many great lines, like Milton Berle about his brother-in-law "Be careful of him...he's not normal!"Or Jim Backus "Now I'll make some old fashions the old fashion way, just like dear old grand-dad!".Or Buddy Hackett regarding the bumbling air traffic controller "I don't ...

Journey to the Center of the Earth
Super movie...brings me back to when I was a kid when my grandparents took me to see if for the first time. Will enjoy watching it over and over again.
  
  











  



  
Three Days of the Condor98 reviews
Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway

Paramount, 1999

A Little Scary...
...when you look at what's happened in this country and the world since this film was made. Not much I can add to the reviews here. This is an excellent film that I watch over and over. Max Von Seidow's portrayal of the professional hit-man is fabulous. But what Cliff Robertson's character says to Redford's character at the very end gives me the chills....
  
  











  



  
A Man for All Seasons (Special Edition)194 reviews
Paul Scofield, Wendy Hiller

Sony Pictures, 2007

A Movie for All Seasons
You'd be hard pressed to find a film so profound as "A Man for All Seasons"; it borders on Shakespearean in its tone. Yes, it shows only one side of Sir Thomas More, and we fleetingly glimpse More's intense revulsion toward Protestantism and its followers (he sent some of them to the stake for heresy). But the side that the movie portrays is accurate, as Sir Thomas deeply loved his family and ...
  
  











  



  
Midway (Collector's Edition)161 reviews
Charlton Heston, Edward Albert

Universal Studios, 2001

One of my favorite movies
Movie showed up on time and in perfect condition. As much as I enjoy this movie (and have for years), the producers comments about the making of the movie were even more enjoyable and interesting then the movie itself. I will not give away any of what I learned. Also the comments were quite substantial. So I spent one evening watching the comments and another night watching the movie.

The Wild Wild West Season 1
Glad to see this on DVD. The intro's by Robert Conrad are a good background to each episode. Was one of my favorite series and never understood why it was not in the rerun lineup. Looking forward to getting the remaining seasons.
