1.A Christmas Carol (Colorized) starring: Alastair Sim, Jack Warner, Kathleen Harrison, Mervyn Johns, Hermione Baddeley directed by: Brian Desmond Hurst November 02, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Very good adaptation on film for of this classic book written by Ch. Dickens but I think there are more adaptations much better as release.

2.The Slipper and the Rose starring: Rosalind Ayres, Roy Barraclough, Tim Barrett, Geoffrey Bayldon, Norman Bird April 25, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $11.95
I have loved this movie ever since I was little. I was very happy to finally find it on DVD and I was very pleased with the quality. Its a great Cindarella story and worth every penny! But it is a musical, so if you don't like a lot of singing and dancing you might want to pass on this.

3.Ivanhoe (1982) starring: James Mason, Anthony Andrews, Sam Neill, Michael Hordern, Olivia Hussey directed by: Douglas Camfield June 24, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $23.18
I am so SAD about having to say negative things about this film. I'm a devout disciple of Ivanhoe, and a mesmerized fan of Anthony Andrews, so it feels like treachery to say that I've never been so disappointed in a film...What a CAST. But such meaningless drivel for dialog... True, this version DID include Athelstane, but to what purpose? He added nothing, he was totally incidental---well, blast it, WILFRED was incidental...And, bless her heart, that cute little girl didn't look remotely Saxon...And lovely Olivia looks more as if she's distressed and confused by the quality of the production than by deep love for Wilfred or impending immolation...By the time they tie her to the stake, she looks like she just wants out under any circumstance. I BELIEVED Elizabeth Taylor in the old version- ... Read More

4.Anne of The Thousand Days starring: Richard Burton, Geneviève Bujold, Irene Papas, Anthony Quayle, John Colicos directed by: Charles Jarrott February 28, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.85
I have loved this movie since the first time I saw it when it was released. What acting! Don't you love to hear Richard Burton's voice? And Ms. Bujold...her acting makes the part. Now for some good news I wanted to share. I went to the Universal Movie Studios website, actually to ask them when the TV series Centennial might ever be released on DVD (another absolute favorite of mine) and it says on the site that on Sept. 18, 2007 it will be released on DVD as a 2-movie collection: Anne of The Thousand Days and Mary, Queen of Scots. Did I make anyone else's day like reading that made mine? Hope so.

5.Labyrinth (1999) starring: David Bowie, Jennifer Connelly, Toby Froud, Shelley Thompson, Christopher Malcolm directed by: Jim Henson September 21, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.24
I loved this movie as a kid! David Bowie is awesome and the characters and music are spectacular. 5 stars!

6.Where Eagles Dare starring: Richard Burton, Clint Eastwood, Mary Ure, Patrick Wymark, Michael Hordern directed by: Brian G. Hutton August 01, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.59
Clint Eastwood probably mowed down more of Adolf Hitler's German soldiers in Brian G. Hutton's "Where Eagles Dare" than he did western outlaws as either Sergio Leone's Man with No Name in the "Dollars" trilogy or criminals as "Dirty Harry" in his five Warner Brothers crime movies. Bestselling British author Alistair MacLean penned the splendid screenplay that he later converted into a much tamer novel about a team of elite British M.I. 6 secret agents that parachute into Germany to rescue one of the top-ranking officers with a mother lode of knowledge about the June 6th Normandy landings. This MGM blockbuster that runs 158 minutes is probably the greatest action-adventure movie with a World War II setting ever produced. We're talking wall-to-wall gunfire with more surprises and complications than most movies ever ... Read More

7.Freddie the Frog starring: Ben Kingsley, Jenny Agutter, Brian Blessed, Nigel Hawthorne, Michael Hordern directed by: Jon Acevski September 01, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
I remember seeing this movie when I was very young, and while it's not the best animated film I've ever seen, it's certainly not the worst. The animation is satisfactory, and Freddie IS rather handsome and charming for a frog. Everyone has their own opinion about this film, of course, but maybe you negative critics out there are being just a wee bit too harsh. There are movies out there that are far worse than this one, you know.

8.Secret Garden (1987) starring: Gennie James, Barret Oliver, Jadrien Steele, Michael Hordern, Billie Whitelaw directed by: Alan Grint May 21, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.59
I guess I didn't miss much by not reading this book as a child. I don't really understand why it became a classic. It starts out interestingly enough with a very gothic setting. A little British girl named Mary survives a cholera epidemic in India and is sent to Yorkshire to live with her distant relatives. The author gives a vivid description of the beauty of the moors and the mysterious mansion that the girl goes to live in. The only other interesting part is really when Mary discovers the boy...more I guess I didn't miss much by not reading this book as a child. I don't really understand why it became a classic.

9.The Spy Who Came in From the Cold starring: Richard Burton, Oskar Werner, Claire Bloom, Sam Wanamaker, George Voskovec directed by: Martin Ritt October 12, 1988
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.77
There are already many well-written reviews for this classic B&W cold war film that stars Richard Burton as a broken-down,drunken and disillusioned field operative(read SPY).One of the best espionage pictures ever made--it holds up very well,even upon multiple viewings.Based on the John LeCarre novel of the same name;this is the film responsible for introducing me to LeCarre`s novels.As excellent as the movie is-I still reommend reading the book first! Thanks for reading!

We watched this movie just this weekend, with our three teenagers, who were enthralled. Great for all ages!
