No Surrender 1 review

Prism Entertainment Video
funniest movie you've never heard of
This is one of my all-time favorite black comedies, but very obscure. Ray McAnally (played the bishop in The Mission) and Bernard Hill (played the captain in Titanic) spar in an alice-in-wonderland nightmare night as catholic and protestant groups are booked simultaneous in a outskirts-urban nightclub in Ireland for New Years Eve. I think it's brilliant but I should warn you, I've played it for ...

Masterpiece........
Firstly let me point out that there is a DVD version of EOD, several actually.

To Kill a Priest7 reviews
Christopher Lambert, Ed Harris
Columbia/Tri-Star, 1990
Very good
I think it is a very good movie. It is based on real facts, in times of communism in Poland and it shows the strong catholic faith of the people there and how that would play an important role in the fall of communism.

Scarlett (Special Collector's Editon)196 reviews
Joanne Whalley, Timothy Dalton
Hallmark, 1997
Scarlett, the book
Great book. Written in sense of "Gone with the Wind." Good character development. Really saw the growth of Scarlet, from self-centered child to caring young woman. Always had the feeling, unlike the film, that it was Scarlet and Rhett. Set in Irish history background.

Pink Floyd - The Wall379 reviews
Bob Geldof, Christine Hargreaves
Sony, 2000
A not too bad third telling of Pink Floyd's magnum opus
The film version of Pink Floyd's The Wall was released in August of 1982.
The movie did fairly well at the box office. It initially grossed $23 million which was alot of money back in 1982 considering it was competing against films like E.T., Rocky III and the first Poltergeist. I first saw the movie when my father rented this movie for me when I was 9 (I am not joking folks, this was in ...

The Singing Detective90 reviews

The Best Thing You'll ever watch
Some have suggested that "The Singing Detective" is the greatest production ever done for television; I could not even suggest a close number two!
I originally was inspired to look at The Singing Detective because I enjoyed the "Maigret" series so much. I thought that TSD was in somewhat the same jaundra. Well, I was plesently surprised. It's not a `Mystery' but a psychodrama of the highest ...
