Robert Duvall, Blythe Danner

Warner Home Video, 1994

Duvall is superb. Great cast. Great flim.
From "To Kill a Mockingbird" through the Godfather films and "Apocalypse Now" it was clear that Bob Duvall had special talent. However, this film was really his "breakout" role. It should have been the first film to garner him an academy award for best actor. Alas, so many profound performances have only been recognized as such after the fact (Newman in Cool Hank Luke for example). As a ...

Cabin Fever, 1992

Best Western of All Time...on BluRay
Having watched LD countless times since it first came out ( not to mention reading the book twice) I didn't think there was any way it could be improved on. But when the remastered, Bluray, 5.1 came out, I jumped. Glad I did. It's like watching it for the first time again. Great transfer and audio. Worth the purchase price.

Natasha Richardson, Faye Dunaway

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

Excellent!
This is a excellent film, with a outstanding cast. I was hooked when I first saw it. Victoria Tennant was chilling, Faye Dunaway and Robert Duval, were perfectly suited for one another! Natasha Richardson was such a natural for this movie, but, my favorite was Maureen McGovern, so beautiful, and as always, shows her tremendous acting abilities, I personally think that she should have received ...

A Treasure of a Movie
This is a poignant and heart warming story told from the point of view of a little tomboy, Scout, & her older brother, Jem, of growing up in the South during the depression. It is fairly faithful to the book although much has been omitted as one would expect. Their father, Atticus Finch, a widowed attorney, takes on a the defense of a Negro wrongly accused of raping a white girl. The colorful ...

True Grit [VHS]

John Wayne, Kim Darby

Warner Home Video, 1997

In the Top 3 of my list of best Westerns
I've heard about this movie for many, many years. Don't know why I never got around to seeing it until now. But I'm glad I finally did. Wayne is great, Darby is great (I imagine that, though Mattie is the one who uses the phrase "true grit" to refer to Rooster Cogburn, it actually applies to her), and Campbell, though of course a singer rather than an actor, isn't that bad in his role. I ...

A Civil Action
Jan Schlichtmann, a tenacious lawyer, is addressed by a group of families. When investigating the seemingly non-profiting case, he finds it to be a major environmental issue that has a lot of impact potential. A leather production company could be responsible for several deadly cases of leukemia, but also is the main employer for the area. Schlichtmann and his three colleagues set out to have the ...

Robert Duvall, Tess Harper

Republic Pictures, 1998

Solid performance. Beautiful scenery. Loneliness.
What a sleeper this movie is! I have only recently discovered the versatile talents of Robert Duvall and bought this because of his Oscar winning role in this movie. The Oscar is well-deserved but so are the performances of everyone else: Tess Harper in her theatrical debut, young Ellen Barkin and Texas-born child actor Allen Hubbard also round out the story. Duvall plays a recovering ...

A Family Thing [VHS]

Robert Duvall, James Earl Jones

MGM (Video & DVD), 1999

One Of My Favorites
I love this movie. It makes the post-Civil Rights era come alive for those who didn't live through it and stirs warm memories for those who did. The film is neither too sappy nor too rigid and James Earl Jones, Robert Duvall and Irma Hall fill their characters to the brim. Enjoy!

Michael Douglas, Robert Duvall

Warner Home Video, 1994

Bad Guy?
Way under rated film about the 'I want it yesterday' America of the '90's. Michael Douglas is superb as Bill Foster, whose world, and psyche suddenly crumbles one day in a L.A. traffic jam. He takes us on his own, "Heart Of Darkness" journey as he reacts to situations as he sees fit. Heartbreaking conclusion leaves us with two questions Bill Foster incredulously asks: "I'm the bad guy!? How did I ...

Requiem for a Dream
You can write the volumes about the Godfather, Part 2 phenomena. There is nothing that has not been said about it greatness, magnificence, perfection that radiate in every aspect, every moment, every inch of every frame, every performance, quote, glance, in the sound of the music, in both parts of the story, past and present that take the viewer to the journey in search of American Dream that ...

Outer Limits: Man With the Power [VHS]

Vic Perrin, Bob Johnson

MGM (Video & DVD), 1995

An outstanding offering from a show that was ahead of its time!
For a child born in the 50's, the 1960's original "The Outer Limits" was a breath of fresh air in a television sea of westerns, variety shows, and cop dramas. There was nothing else on the tube that offered wondering minds a place where sci-fi and social commentary blended so well. Every week some of the best writers and established, as well as rising, stars would come together and offer ...

If you love someone, buy their chairs
I watched this again for about the fourth time and it always gets me. The plot requires some forceful suspension of disbelief, but the characters, the acting, and the emotional territory explored by the film are believable and affecting. I love the gentleness, humor and forgiveness of human foibles; at times it almost feels informed by the work of Steinbeck. The love story is sweet, but the ...

A Bonny Holmes Adventure in Freud's Vienna
This film has haunted me since I first saw it in the 70's, to some extent because prior to that, my viewing experience of Holmes was our standard---yet deeply appreciated---Basil Rathbone interpretation. This fulsome breathing of life into Doyle's Holmes and Watson was a complete delight---Nichol Williamson and Robert Duvall more than do the stories justice. Since Williamson's Holmes is lost ...
