1.A New Leaf starring: Rose Arrick, James Coco, David Doyle, Trent Gough, Graham Jarvis January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $34.99
How can it be that Walter Matthau's best performance, especially a comedy performance, is not available on DVD? It's a shame, because this is arguably the most brilliant dark comedy from that wonderful golden age of grown-up films from the mid 60s to the mid 70s. This movie is way too funny and brilliant to be this undercover and cult. Elaine May is to comedy what Coppola and Scorsese were to drama. Her writing is as good as comedy writing gets, and her performance gives a glimpse at how wonderful a comic actress she really is. No B.S. either. This one of the great comedies. Can't believe it's not on dvd. Not to be missed. I remember seeing this on tv when I was a little girl and thinking, that is a wonderful world those two people live in. It played the midnight show in college and the crowd ... Read More

3.Over the Brooklyn Bridge (Amazon.com Exclusive) starring: Elliott Gould, Margaux Hemingway, Sid Caesar, Carol Kane, Burt Young directed by: Menahem Golan February 20, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.94
This is a brilliant, very Jewish, very New Yorkish, comedy that should have been more widely admired than it was. It is now hard to find. Like Elliott Gould's earlier black comedy masterpiece Little Murders, Over the Brooklyn Bridge has marvelous acting, an often hilarious script, and deep insight into the worst and best parts of human nature. The engagement party dinner near the movie's close is unforgettable. Sid Caesar should have won an academy award for it. Shelly Winters and Carol Kane are fantastic throughout. Hemingway? Well, she won't be everyone's cup of tea. In any case, don't this splendid movie. Especially if you're from New York. Woody Allen should be so funny!

4.Mikey & Nicky starring: Peter Falk, John Cassavetes, Ned Beatty, Rose Arrick, Carol Grace directed by: Elaine May July 08, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.23
Directed with confidence by Elaine May, this gritty, pared-to-the bone crime drama about a penny ante Mafia associate who's on the run after embezzling a cache of money from the mob has a freewheeling, improvisational quality that perfectly matches its air of anxious desperation. The film succeeds brilliantly because of the give-and-take rapport between Falk and Cassavetes, who come across like a bickering old couple destined at any moment for a violent meltdown. Ned Beatty also contributes an edgy turn as the hired killer out to nail Nicky. With betrayal looming like an ominous shadow, "Nicky" is an engaging study of street life and strained male relations.
