1.Nobody's Fool (1994) starring: Paul Newman, Bruce Willis, Jessica Tandy, Melanie Griffith, Dylan Walsh
directed by: Robert Benton

VHS : Nobody's Fool (1994)
This is a gentle, small movie about small-town living and its citizens, particularly a blatantly unapologetic ne'er-do-well named Sully (Paul Newman) who has lived his life exactly as he wants to and manages, by optimism and the bonding in this town, to survive quite well in spite of himself.

Sully has co-existed with his former eighth-grade teacher for apparent decades (the great Jessica Tandy, in her next-to-last performance), living in an upstairs apartment and doing - when he remembers to - odd jobs for her as well as keeping an eye on her. He is constantly at odds with her stuffy bank-manager son (Josef Sommer) who wants Sully out of his mother's house; Sully is also at mild odds with several other people in town, including his ex-wife, and an uncredited performance by Bruce ...

The Verdict (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
One of many of the late, GREAT Paul Newman's fine work on film. I first saw this film in the theater and simply had to purchase the DVD after the sad news of his passing. I think it is one of the must-haves of his work as an actor.

3.The Young Philadelphians starring: Paul Newman, Barbara Rush, Alexis Smith, Brian Keith, Diane Brewster

Great classic movie in perfect condition. Seemed to be factory wrapped and well preserved. Absolutely no flaws that I could find.

Just to offer my two cents, now that both versions are on DVD:

Regardless of what aspect ratio it was originally shot in, the full-screen version is indeed pan & scan. I now have both. If you compare the two, you'll see the newer widescreen DVD is not missing any of the picture from the top or bottom. It is the full-screen that is indeed missing the sides.
I never saw it in the theater, so I can't say how it was originally projected.
Either way, it's one of the best films ever (way better than Citizen Kane), so watch it however you want and enjoy.

VHS : Somebody Up There Likes Me
Director Robert Wise helmed the great boxing movie The Set-Up , a work scathing in its depiction of the seamy side of the sport .Somebody Up There Like Me takes an altogether more positive view of the noble art and is a thorougly entertaining biopic about Rocky Graziano .Graziano is splendidly played by Paul Newman making his second picture ,after the debacle that was The Silver Chalice,a movie that could have strangled his screen career at birth ,so bad was it .
Rocky was born in the slums of New York ,the son of a boxer whose own career stalled through several losing bouts with the bottle .In and out of trouble with the law as a youth and into young manhood ,encompassing a strech in reform school ,a dishonourable discharge from the Army and a spell in Leavenworth .Rocky eventually finds a route to success through prowess in the ...

Movie is long but it sure does give you a view of how poorly people were treated. It was great to see how their belief kept them strong

It sure would be nice if this movie were to become available on DVD or
Blu-Ray it it's original theatrical widescreen release. Remastered
sound and picture, if necessary, would be great, too. This is one of
Paul Newman's best films. Looking forward to the day.

This is one of Newmans best, because he plays a completely dispicable

person with no redeeming qualities. He has no scruples and no character.

It is a great departure for Newman and he does a Great job.

Movies used to relay on scripts and acting and production rather than computer simulations to be good. This is just such a movie. It takes one back to a time when the players were the stars. And besides that...it's worth the price just to see Liz change her stockings. That's where the "great googly moogly" title comes from (<;
