1.The Young Philadelphians starring: Paul Newman, Barbara Rush, Alexis Smith, Brian Keith, Diane Brewster directed by: Vincent Sherman February 07, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $12.00
Great classic movie in perfect condition. Seemed to be factory wrapped and well preserved. Absolutely no flaws that I could find.

2.Valley of the Dolls (Spec) starring: Barbara Parkins, Patty Duke, Paul Burke, Sharon Tate, Tony Scotti directed by: Mark Robson December 23, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.52
DOLLS!!! What may have been at the time of release "shocking" dialogue is why Valley of the Dolls will live in infamy. "Well Broad-way doesn't go for booozze and pills." Helen Larson tells Neeley O'Hara at the start of their catfight in the powder room. Great fun to watch with your best Gay friends. Great extras included. Packaging is well done and comes with lobby cards.

3.Francis in the Navy starring: Donald O'Connor, Martha Hyer, Richard Erdman, Jim Backus, Clint Eastwood directed by: Arthur Lubin May 23, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.39
This is the sixth and final film of the series produced by Universal that included Donald O'Connor, and director Arthur Lubin, who created the sequence. It would be charitable to state that this entry is up to the best of its antecedents, as O'Connor's tongue-tied routine as the chowderheaded sidekick of Francis the talking mule has become rather exhausting for audiences by the time of this release. Army lieutenant Peter Stirling (O'Connor) is advised by Francis that the mule has been "drafted" into the Navy and is positioned as surplus to be auctioned at the Coronado (Calif.) base. While attempting to regain Francis' freedom, Peter is mistaken for a lookalike bosn's mate, Slicker Donovan, is captured by the Shore Patrol and must then reestablish his correct identity while disinvolving himself from ...

4.Island of Lost Souls starring: Charles Laughton, Bela Lugosi, Richard Arlen, Leila Hyams, Kathleen Burke directed by: Erle C. Kenton September 16, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $10.99
I can only guess. It's not released due to hints of beastiality in the movie Island of Lost Souls??? IF so that's just rubbish. Island of Lost Souls is a great, classic Friday night B&W horror flick that no collection should be without. Period. But we are forced to have a VHS or cheap bootleg. Mystery Of the Wax Museum is hardly a point of discussion here, a nice to have, but Island is a MUST HAVE! Here is exactly what we need in a collection: Island Of Lost Souls Murders In The Zoo House Of Horrors The Mad Ghoul Now how cool of a collection would that be??? HELLO Universal!!! Anyone home??

5.Topper Takes a Trip starring: Constance Bennett, Roland Young, Billie Burke, Alan Mowbray, Verree Teasdale directed by: Norman Z. McLeod December 01, 1987

If you haven't experienced the Topper movie trio, you just must. We all love them!

6.Elizabeth (1998) starring: Fanny Ardant, Richard Attenborough, Cate Blanchett, Kathy Burke, Eric Cantona September 14, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Every aspect of this film is flawless. All period films should use this one as an example of how to bring history to life. I can't speak much about the plot that hasn't already been discussed to death here and Amazon itself has done a decent job recapping the basics of this story. I'll resort to my simple Hits and Misses on this one: The HITS: 1. This film is flawlessly acted by all. While Cate Blanchett dominates the screen and well-earned her Oscar nomination that year, Geoffrey Rush and the suburb, but under appreciated Sir Richard Attenborough (The Great Escape, A Passage To India and Jurassic Park) are outstanding in their supporting roles as is the rest of the terrific cast. 2. Exquisite photography, costume design, and settings bring this period ... Read More

7.Denver & The Rio Grande starring: Edmond O'Brien, Sterling Hayden, Dean Jagger, Kasey Rogers, Lyle Bettger directed by: Byron Haskin November 11, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $18.50
Pop your popcorn and settle in for a 1950's-style Matinee Western that from an acting point of view is just barely a B-movie, but railroad enthusiasts will watch this VHS over and over again. The true stars of this flick are the old Denver & Rio Grande narrow gauge from Durango to Silverton, and the Colorado scenery. Rio Grande enthusiasts will also be totally intrigued by the rare opening footage of Rio Grande ALCO PA's in silver paint for CZ duty, and many FT and F3 covered wagons still in black paint fresh from the EMD factory erecting floors. There is even a short cab ride through Glenwood Canyon, and an interesting long shot at Dotsero. Engines 268 and 315 are in bumble bee makeup, and while the story line is both campy and corny, the many action shots of these fine machines ... Read More

8.The Saint Takes Over / The Saint's Vacation starring: George Sanders, Wendy Barrie, Jonathan Hale, Paul Guilfoyle, Morgan Conway directed by: Jack Hively, Leslie Fenton March 18, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $9.49
THE SAINT TAKES OVER is a 1940 movie about Simon Templar's adventures which begin on board an ocean liner bound from London to New York. The villains in this case are gangsters who fix horse races. The role of the Saint (Simon Templar) is played by George Sanders for the fifth time in this series. The cast also includes Wendy Barrie, Jonathan Hale and Paul Guifoyle. In THE SAINT'S VACATION Simon Templar tries to take a holiday in Switzerland but ends up instead immersed in a case involving espionage and a secret code. Hugh Sinclair gets his first chance in the role of the Saint. Also included in the cast are Sally Gray, Arthur MacRae and Cecil Parker.

9.One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich starring: Roy Bjørnstad, Alfred Burke, Frimann Falck Clausen, Paul Connell, John Cording July 05, 1988
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $39.99
I was fascinated to see this movie bring Solzhenitsyn's book to life. I'd seen bits of it as child before I'd read the novel and had always wanted to get a copy. Tom Courtney was wonderfully cast as Shukov. The rest of the cast was great also. The work gang's boss, the Baptists, the guards. My heart bled for "The Captain" again. Everybody who studies totalitarianism would do well to watch this film. The cinematography was gripping, you could feel the cold. "how can a man who's warm understand a man who's cold?"

10.Father of the Bride (1950) starring: Spencer Tracy, Joan Bennett, Elizabeth Taylor, Don Taylor, Billie Burke directed by: Vincente Minnelli June 30, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.52
I thought this movie would be a bummer when I saw the introduction, but it was better than I thought and pretty funny. Spencer Tracy plays the father to Elizabeth Taylor's bride, and he's hesitant about her marrying at the age of 20. But she won't be stopped, and all chaos ensues as the expenses and situational problems crop up along the way. However, there is a happy ending for all. It's a nice movie to see.
