1.Stephen Sondheim's Follies in Concert starring: Andre Gregory, Arthur Rubin, Barbara Cook, George Hearn, Jim Walton directed by: Michael Houldey July 24, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.76
I remember watching the initial airing of this concert on television and at one point stood up and screamed at the TV. I could not beleive that what should have been an historic, television event, was actually a schmaltzy, PBS documentary about the concert. I, like most every person I knew who were interested in musical theater at the time, were pissed! Why? Why? Why? Why couldn't they have taped and shown the entire concert instead of this 90 minute fluff? Yes, I am sure all the performers were excited to be performing in this "once in a lifetime" event, I got that, but why couldn't they have shown it in it's entirety as they would do with other things. I really didn't need to see Elaine Stritch, sans make-up, pulling on her leotard. I would have liked to have seen her perform Broadway Baby ... Read More

3.Indiscreet (B&W) starring: Gloria Swanson, Ben Lyon, Monroe Owsley, Barbara Kent, Arthur Lake directed by: Leo McCarey September 22, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.64
In this early talkie from 1931 - in which everyone does their best in an essentially mediocre film - a 32 year-old Gloria Swanson plays a lady with a past. Gloria, who is involved with a writer (Ben Lyon) discovers that Lyon's sister has her old flame as her new fiancee... With good reason, Swanson had misgivings about this film which is weak both plot-wise and musically: her fears unfortunately proved right. Leo McCarey, the director, was promised his "big break" with this film and Ben Lyon was - rather unbelievably - considered a major coup for a leading man, therefore, Swanson agreed to do it for United Artists. Perhaps the most capable performer is Arthur "Dagwood" Lake as Buster Collins. Swanson had just priorly turned down Paramount's offer of a guaranteed 1 million-dollar-a-year contract (!).

4.The Little Polar Bear starring: Mijail Verona, Maximilian Artajo, Jochen Busse, Mike Krüger, Bernd Stelter directed by: Thilo Rothkirch, Piet De Rycker
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.99
I purchased this DVD for my husband who taught elementary school for 35 years. He has always loved Polar Bears and the different books about Lars were read to our sons all the time and now to our grandsons. Both "Papa" and grandsons (ages 5 & 3) watched this DVD three days in a row. It teaches about family and friendship which does not seem to be that important in today's society so much. I would recommend this as a great DVD for all ages.
