1.Picnic (Widescreen) starring: William Holden, Kim Novak, Betty Field, Susan Strasberg, Cliff Robertson directed by: Joshua Logan June 24, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.09
Both Borders and Barnes and Noble now carry a widescreen version of Picnic: http://video.barnesandnoble.com/DVD/Picnic/William-Holden/e/043396828797/?itm=4 Widescreen on one side, fullscreen on the other. It says "Columbia Classics" across the top of the package. I wish Amazon would carry this version, as I don't want to open a new account at one of those other places just for one item.

2.Misty starring: David Ladd, Arthur O'Connell, Pam Smith, Anne Seymour, Duke Farley directed by: James B. Clark December 03, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.70
I read the book to my two children, age 11 yo son and 5 yo daughter. My son was excited to get the movie. However, when we watched it, my son was disappointed. He noted the drastic change in story line, the poor quality of the lighting/screen colors, and the poor acting. My son is an actor himself, but had never made such comments before and this was the first movie he had ever walked out on. On the other hand, my daughter loved it. I did not like the change in the storyline making the grandparents seem much stricter.

3.The Hiding Place starring: Julie Harris, Jeannette Clift, Arthur O'Connell, Robert Rietty, Pamela Sholto directed by: James F. Collier August 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.61
I remember being small and hearing Corrie Ten Boom's name and the fact that she was going to speak, but like most children my age, it meant little. Too bad. But what a lovely DVD this was and the short comments from her at the end, and the photos of her family was soul-healing. Viewing it made me feel grateful for my life and faith. I probably need to watch it daily to remind me. It is certainly worth several viewings and reading the book again before viewing after all these years was very helpful.

4.Man of the West starring: Gary Cooper, Julie London, Lee J. Cobb, Arthur O'Connell, Jack Lord directed by: Anthony Mann September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.89
Coop fans will enjoy this gritty western,directed by Anthony Mann.The throw down between our hero and Jack Lord is not to be missed!Above average plot with strong support.

5.Anatomy of a Murder starring: James Stewart, Lee Remick, Ben Gazzara, Arthur O'Connell, Eve Arden directed by: Otto Preminger June 21, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.75
I've been watching the entire Otto Preminger catalog lately, and I got around to seeing what is arguably his most famous film. Seeing it again makes me realise that it's a masterpiece of tension, performances, dialogue, and cinematography. There is so much to like about this film. Nothing here in the trial or the characterisations is present in black and white (there's even a dialogue by Stewart to a potential witness about how people aren't black and white). It is full blown ambiguity, resulting in a far more grown up and mature film than most current courtroom dramas are. It is also refreshingly un-PC, unlike modern courtroom dramas. I like to constrast this film with overblown, incredibly melodramatic shows like The Practice, which I used to watch simply because it was unintentionally hilarious, because ... Read More

6.There Was a Crooked Man starring: Kirk Douglas, Henry Fonda, Hume Cronyn, Warren Oates, Burgess Meredith directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz January 18, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.97
On one of the discussion boards was a question about the pretty schoolteacher being carried along with the rioting mob, losing another piece of attire every time seen (yelling "warden," asking for help) for part of the riot sequence and then disappearing. And mention of seeing a still picture where she wore a hat, boots and a smile while running through the desert. Question was about the editing. An acquaintance saw the sneak preview of the picture in Long Beach while it was still being edited and mentioned that the striptease continued until she was chased into the desert through the hole dynamited in the prison wall. Should there ever be a DVD released with this "deleted scene," you let us all know, you all. (But after forty or fifty years, doubtful.)

7.The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit starring: Gregory Peck, Jennifer Jones, Fredric March, Marisa Pavan, Lee J. Cobb directed by: Nunnally Johnson October 07, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.88
The movie is in excellent condition and the quality of the original flim has been restored. There is a section on the DVD that shows how it was done. Very glad to get a copy of this classic.

8.Fantastic Voyage starring: Stephen Boyd, Raquel Welch, Edmond O'Brien, Donald Pleasence, Arthur O'Connell directed by: Richard Fleischer February 11, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.49
Sci-fi fans will, more than likely, consider two films from 1968 as being the best of the genre: "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Planet of the Apes. To that duo, however, I would like to add "Fantastic Voyage," from two years earlier and also from Twentieth Century Fox, the studio that released "Planet" and its seguels. As fans and film buffs know, "Voyage" tells the tale of a special team miniaturized in order the save a dying scientist from a life-threatening blood clot, the result of an assassination attempt on his life. The film boasts then-state-of-the art special effects, an Oscar-worthy score from Leonard Rosenman, and the anatomical assets, appropriately for a film about biology, of Raquel Welch. So impressive are the sets that they were reused many times for Irwin Allen TV shows. In addition to Ms. Welch, the ... Read More

9.Poseidon Adventure starring: Gene Hackman, Ernest Borgnine, Shelley Winters, Red Buttons, Carol Lynley directed by: Ronald Neame December 07, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.56
I was very pleased with the quality of the movie and the expedient service. Thank you!

10.They Only Kill Their Masters starring: James Garner, Katharine Ross, Hal Holbrook, Harry Guardino, June Allyson directed by: James Goldstone September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $17.49
The doberman's are the "gimmick" in an otherwise average movie. However they are an impressive gimmick.The trainers get the dogs to do some amazing things. There's "kind of" a plot and "kind of " some acting a few decent lines and Katherine Ross but the Dobies and their acting are the main course. Imagine a "Benji" movie for grown-ups. If you are interested in animal training or dobermans, you'll like this movie.
