1.Everyone Says I Love You starring: Alan Alda, Ami Almendral, Madeline Balmaceda, Drew Barrymore, Tommie Baxter directed by: Woody Allen February 03, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.15
This lovely-to-look-at and amazing-to-listen-to film was a major departure from the typical angsty Allen film....and because of that, it's unappreciated....Amazingly, it's unavailable on DVD...I hope that changes soon!

3.Beast With Five Fingers starring: Robert Alda, Andrea King, Peter Lorre, Victor Francen, J. Carrol Naish directed by: Robert Florey September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $49.99
The Beast with Five Fingers (Robert Florey, 1946) 1946 was the last year Peter Lorre worked for Warner Brothers, and his parting from the company was career suicide; while he remains one of the world's most famous actors, endlessly imitated and paid tribute, from his parting with Warner Brothers until his death in 1964, Lorre picked up only the odd film here and there (though some of them are truly excellent) and some TV guest appearances. Thus it is that The Beast with Five Fingers is something of a bittersweet film for the nostalgia buff; it is a great Lorre performance, but it marked the beginning of the end. Set in the late nineteenth century in northern Italy, The Beast with Five Fingers is the tale of Frances Ingram (Victor Francen), a pianist with a rather motley crew of ... Read More

4.Rhapsody in Blue starring: Robert Alda, Joan Leslie, Alexis Smith, Charles Coburn, Julie Bishop directed by: Irving Rapper September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $8.42
As a Hollywood biopic this is only average. Too much of the film is devoted to Gershwin's supposed romantic involvement with two women, who are both entirely fictional. Far more important in reality was his friendship with Oscar Levant, who was not only the composer's best friend but also after his death was widely recognized as the most authoritative interpreter of his major works for piano, Rhapsody in Blue and Concerto in F. Levant's presence in the film lends it some historical authenticity. Also present are Al Jolson, a legendary figure in the history of American popular entertainment and the interpreter of Gershwin's single most popular song, "Swanee", and Paul Whiteman, the bandleader who collaborated with Gershwin in the premiere of Rhapsody in Blue. (Fred Astaire is sorely missed.) There is also a ... Read More

5.White Mile starring: Alan Alda, Peter Gallagher, Robert Loggia, Bruce Altman, Fionnula Flanagan directed by: Robert Butler March 26, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.99
The thing that is most striking about this movie (other than the white water sequences) is how Mr. Goodguy can so turn on a dime and be such a slimey, self-serving, non-sympathetic figure in this movie. While he is like this throughout the movie, bullying his workers to go on this dangerous trip even one who feared for his life but needed his job more, his personae truly comes alive when the widow of one of these men comes to see him and he offers her some amazingly good cheescake....I loved seeing him like this -what an an incredible job of acting. This has to be a universal concept that happens in job situations throughout the world - "You do this or it's your job".....The action scenes are well filmed and acted and an exciting movie all-around. Peter Gallagher is good as the person who tries to do the right ... Read More

7.When a Stranger Calls starring: Carol Kane, Charles Durning, Colleen Dewhurst, Tony Beckley, Ron O'Neal directed by: Fred Walton August 28, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.65
"What are you going to do tonight?" a friend of mine asked. "I'm going to watch a movie, an old scary one. WHEN A STRANGER CALLS. It's supposed to be good." "Is that the one with the babysitter?" "I don't know. I haven't seen it." "Yeah. I know that one. It's famous, right? It's the one where you find out he's calling -- " "Shut up shut up shut up! I don't want to know anything about it. I like to go in fresh." So I went in fresh, and ten minutes in, I realized that I already knew the creepy twist. And if you've been told at least three campfire tales in your life, I'd wager odds that you know the twist, too. Even if you've never seen the movie in question. That's not so bad. The first twenty minutes of the original manage ... Read More

8.The Deer Hunter starring: Robert De Niro, Christopher Walken, John Cazale, John Savage, Meryl Streep directed by: Michael Cimino March 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
The Deer Hunter A close-knit group of American mill - workers are suddenly thrust into war, a war about which none of them knew much about till they arrived. Their awakening is a rude one. The best of director Michael Cimino's much varied out-put was clearly a hard act to follow for all - concerned. At the time, the players, were relatively unknown - Rober de Niro, John Cazale, John Savage, Meryl Streep and Christopher Walken ( as Nick, who's subjected to Russian roulette). The yearning theme music is brilliant.

9.Lisa And The Devil starring: Telly Savalas, Elke Sommer, Sylva Koscina, Alessio Orano, Gabriele Tinti directed by: Alfredo Leone, Mario Bava September 10, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.91
While on a trip to Spain, Lisa Reiner (the beautiful Elke Sommer!!) gets hopelessly separated from her tour group, leading to a bizarre oddyssey into the supernatural. Lisa keeps running into a strange, bald guy w/ a mannequin (Telly Savalas from Horror Express), and she apparently kills another man by accidentally knocking him down some stone steps! Poor Lisa wanders through the labyrinth-like streets / alleys of Toledo, having one weird encounter after another, until finally hitching a ride w/ a married couple and their chauffeur. All is well until they have engine trouble, winding up at a huge mansion in the middle of nowhere. The only residents are an old blind woman (Alida Valli), her odd son (Allessio Orano), and their butler (Telly again!). Things drag on for awhile while the dream-like atmosphere builds. Then, once the first murder takes ... Read More
