VHS : The Haunting of Julia
I saw part of this movie on TV when I was in college well over twenty years ago and the chilling images (some shown and some just implied) have stayed with me all this time. I was delighted to see my cable provider is showing it as part of the "on demand" feature and I finally watched the movie in it entirety this afternoon.

Mia Farrow is perfectly cast as poor vulnerable Julia an American heiress living in London with her husband who seems more interested in her cash than her. When their beloved eight year old daughter tragically chokes to death at breakfast (if they had only known the Heimlich maneuver) her all ready weak marriage falls apart and she rents a huge furnished town home though her husband and his sister continually make efforts to woo Julia and her money back. ...

PLEASE MAKE THIS FILM INTO A DVD ... " close your eyes... imagine the perfect place, your favorite time of year, and all the things you love to do you can... now open your eyes".... "and who is there?" ... "who?", ... "You." This is really a wonderful film!!! It changed my life, and made me laugh ...

VHS : Miracle at Midnight
This is an excellent movie in it's own right, and I especially appreciate the content which shows the heroic efforts of the Danish people to save the Jewish people of their homeland. It is an exciting story presented in such a careful way that parents could allow children to see it without fear. Our whole family enjoyed it.

VHS : Samantha: An American Girl Holiday (P&S)
I just watched my first American Girl movie day-before-yesterday and I immediately had to go and find some more. I haven't been let down. This is my second movie in the series to see and my Mother and I both had tears welling in our eyes throughout the entire film. It is sweet, relevant to modern day issues even, and it shows the importance of friendship and family. I like how the movies encourage involvement in causes. So far the ones I've seen have all been perfectly clean and wonderful for family viewing. I really think they are suited for all ages, as the stories are so well done. I recommend this movie and recommend it some more. I can't wait to see more in the series.

VHS : Husbands & Wives
Husbands and Wives was released in 1992, and it is the last movie Woody Allen made with Mia Farrow--their unlucky thirteenth. It was released just in time to benefit from intense interest in the courtroom stand off between Woody and Mia over Woody's relationship with Mia's adopted daughter, Soon-Yi. Not to say that this was a calculated career move, but the film did better at the box office than any of his other films. It offered uncanny parallels into the real life drama, but it also differed in many respects. Still, it was weird how life imitated art, or vice versa.

As the opening credits roll, we hear a vintage recording of Cole Porter's "What Is This Thing Called Love?" The first scene shows Creative Writing Professor Gabe Roth (Woody Allen) watching a documentary on Einstein where the great ... Read More

VHS : Rosemary's Baby
All the acting is great in this film but I watch it to watch John Cassavetes performance. His character as expectant dad and Rosemary's husband is one I love to hate and be attracted to at the same time.
Cassavetes is able to show a man filled to the brim with lies and how the lies take over his whole body,the way at almost every moment he is pretending to be motivated by protective impulse while his body movement shows he is not filled with love but everything vile.

VHS : Secret Ceremony
I like these shows where you jump back in time before computers, cordless phones, and pre surgery Liz Taylor. I just watched it for the first time on a hidden channel on cable. It amazes me that people are just as F&^%ed up in 1963. Everything is so timeless. I couldnt help but be sad watching the movie though. It pulls out that dark place in your soul that we try so hard to numb. You may need to open a window and let the sun in, and a bottle of antidepressants or ativan in hands reach watching it though. Or just make a fire, close the curtains and stave off suicide instead! Not a movie for christians even though there are catholics in it, just be warned. Peace out!

I thought this was wonderful. I am not a big Mia Farrow fan, but I thought she did a fantastic performance. The scenery was beautiful and the ending was so justified.

VHS : Hannah & Her Sisters
Hannah and Her Sisters is Woody Allen's third best film (Annie Hall and Manhattan are 1 and 2) I liked this film, it is quirky and touching. The best performance goes to Dianne Weist, she is such a natural, she's cute and refreshing in this film. Michael Caine is also good as well, I just wish Mia Farrow wasn't in this, she brings down the film with her sour facial expressions. Lovely romantic comedy for new and old fans of Allen's work.
