Teacher's Pet [VHS] 41 reviews
Clark Gable, Doris Day
Paramount, 1998
Great Old Movies
If you love to curl up and watch old movies, tune in to this. I have always been a Doris Day fan. Combine her with Clark Gable (that's when men were men) and how much better could it get? This is when they made movies you knew you could sit down and watch with the family. I wish Hollywood would realize we're not all after R-rated material in our movies.

Sleepless in Seattle [VHS]189 reviews
Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan
Sony Pictures, 2001
Why Do We Watch It Over & Over Again???
Well, it is a departure from the grist mill of everyday life we endure day in and day out. Some "Feel Good" movies are better than others . . . too much sugar coating makes one lethargic. "Sleepless" is just right. Odd that in the 2 or 3 bios I have seen on Tom Hanks, Sleepless In Seatle is never mention in his filmography. Mr Hanks probably thinks it beneath "Private Ryan" or others he has ...

While You Were Sleeping [VHS]244 reviews
Sandra Bullock, Bill Pullman
Walt Disney Video, 1996
While You Were Sleeping - Enchanting Romantic Comedy
Cute Sandra Bullock's attractive good looks are tremendously down-played in this enchanting romantic comedy of "Love at Second Sight." The costume designer has her dressed in baggy sweaters, shapeless ankle-length skirts, and over-sized jackets because she is supposed to be a Chicago Transit Authority in a dead-end job with no future. Seeing Bullock's leading lady attractiveness so down-played ...

Walk Don't Run [VHS]29 reviews
Cary Grant, Samantha Eggar
Sony Pictures, 1997
Walk Don't Run
It's great, I love it, quietly funny with Cary singing & humming all the themes from his previous movies in the background. Play on his being too old to even be considered risque living (briefly) with Samantha Eggar. And Tim Hutton wonderfully casual, funny, firing quips back as fast as Cary can bat them at him. All this and a brief glance (or hearing) of George Takei in a small part (but you ...

A Room With a View [VHS]201 reviews
Maggie Smith, Helena Bonham Carter
20th Century Fox, 1998
Still great; minor flaw may annoy long-time fans.
I've owned this film on VHS for 20 years, and know it like the back of my hand. So I couldn't help but notice that, on the DVD version, the soundtrack was of a slightly higher pitch than what I'm used to--probably because the DVD plays the film at a slightly higher speed. This is quite noticeable the very start of the film, as the aria plays over the opening credits (compare this to how it's ...

Ghost & Mrs Muir [VHS]174 reviews
Gene Tierney, Rex Harrison
20th Century Fox, 1991
A film and novel better than Twilight!
I am writing this review to remind people there are better works of supernatural romance out there than Twilight. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir is one such example. The novel was written in 1945 and then adapted into a film with George Sanders and later a TV series.
The ghost and Mrs. Muir tells the story of a young widow, Lucy Muir who has decided she wants to break away from the ...

Pretty Woman (Aniv) [VHS]269 reviews

Walt Disney Video, 2000
movie to fall in-love with
This movie is for any female that lives with a fairy tale tag taped to their heart. I still laugh and I still cry whenever I watch this movie. I grab some icecream, sit back and let my emotions fly.

Please Parents!
If you have young children (girls especially) show them the original Parent Trap, not the trash with Lindsay Lohan. This original Disney film is funny, adorable, and a personal favorite!

Chocolat (2000) [VHS]425 reviews
Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench
Walt Disney Video, 2001
Wonderful story and great performance
When chocolate making harmonizes with our passions, and the chocolate maker is Juliette Binoche, total success and delight are inevitable.
While awakening passion in everybody's life in a small village, Binoche faces the classic struggle between being true to one's self and following what is supposedly the righteous way forced on us by others.
Each character in the movie is a forceful ...

Murphy's Romance [VHS]82 reviews
Sally Field, James Garner
Sony Pictures, 1994
Best romance ever!!!
They shouldn't make a good romantic pairing, but somehow James Gardner and Sally Fields are perfect. It's an old fashion romance movie. Perfect if your not looking for a sex in your face movie. You can actually watch this in front of kids.

Bishop's Wife [VHS]155 reviews
Cary Grant, Loretta Young
Hbo Home Video, 1995
Comments on Audio Quality
Noise suppressors have been applied to the default soundtrack with the usual, highly predictable results: clipped, abrupt speech (the noise suppressors accelerate the natural decline in volume of spoken words); loss of low-level audio detail and background ambience; and background sounds which increase and decrease depending on the volume of the foreground. I have described these defects more ...

The Ghost and Mr. Chicken [VHS]124 reviews
Don Knotts, Joan Staley
Universal Studios, 1996
Perfect Halloween movie watching!
Great old movie! Perfect for all ages. We have 3 kiddos, 5, 12, & 16 and finding a movie that is appropriate for everyone can be tough. We ordered this movie for Halloween night as our 16 year old was having a group of friends over and they all really enjoyed the movie. Everyone stayed until the end:) I think watching this movie on Halloween may become a new family tradition!
