1.Two Mules for Sister Sara starring: Clint Eastwood, Shirley MacLaine, Manuel Fábregas, Alberto Morin, Armando Silvestre directed by: Don Siegel March 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.75
This is a good movie. The two stars compliment each other. It's not over done and tiring. Worth watching more than once, that's why I bought it.

3.Invasion of the Body Snatchers starring: Kevin McCarthy, Dana Wynter, Larry Gates, King Donovan, Carolyn Jones directed by: Don Siegel August 31, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.95
Fete of Death At or, at least, near the top of the list of the scariest movies I have ever seen, this is the first and by far the best version of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Don Siegel's direction is sparse and pulls no punches. It is aided by a tense score, but it's the story more than anything else that stands out in this film. Paranoia is rampant throughout this terrifying sci-fi tale. The scariest scene occurs when Kevin McCarthy and Dana Wynter, who are the only two humans left in Santa Mira, flee the pod people and take refuge in an abandoned mine just outside of town. Hidden under some wooden planks that cover a trench that they are lying in, McCarthy and Wynter successfully evade their pursuers. Later, after the pod people have left the cave, McCarthy relaxes ...

4.Telefon starring: Charles Bronson, Lee Remick, Donald Pleasence, Tyne Daly, Alan Badel directed by: Don Siegel May 16, 1989
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $14.56
The phone rings. A voice on the other end quotes Frost "The woods are lovely dark and deep, but I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep". This triggers Soviet Manchurian Canidate killers to carry out missions programmed long ago when the cold war was hot. Enter Charles Bronson, Soviet KGB agent to save the day and prevent WWIII with his double agent femme fatal Lee Remick in a race against time to find the evil Dr. Strangelove type villian.

5.Hell Is for Heroes starring: Steve McQueen, Bobby Darin, Fess Parker, Harry Guardino, James Coburn directed by: Don Siegel September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Steve in fine form as a rugged loner trapped by Germans with a few of his fellow dogfaces. More like a tv show than a movie because of the cheap set and low-budget look of the whole film it manages to sail along holding one's interest with lots of dramatic interest by scenery-chewers like Bob Newhart doing a long comedy shtick somewhat peculiarly in the middle of the film. This movie did a lot of good for McQueen's career and helped cement its status as a classic of the genre.

6.The Dirty Harry Collection (Dirty Harry/Magnum Force/The Enforcer/Sudden Impact/The Dead Pool) starring: Clint Eastwood, Andrew Robinson, Tyne Daly, Sondra Locke, Liam Neeson directed by: Clint Eastwood, Buddy Van Horn, Don Siegel, James Fargo, Ted Post November 20, 2001

Great value and the set was in mint condition. Fast action on sellers part. Thank you

7.Madigan starring: Richard Widmark, Henry Fonda, Inger Stevens, Harry Guardino, James Whitmore directed by: Don Siegel January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.92
Before he directed "Dirty Harry", the late Don Siegel made this gritty New York City thriller about a maverick cop(the late Richard Widmark) who along with his partner (Harry Guardino) loses their guns to a psychopathetic killer. In contrast to "Harry", "Madigan" focuses on the lives of the various people in the Police Department, the Commissioner (Henry Fonda), Madigan's troubled marriage, a corrupt veteran cop (James Whitmore), and of course the pursuit of the killer interwined with the various subplots. It plays almost like a police soap opera but a fine cast of pros (Widmark, Fonda, Whitmore) bring it to life. According to sources, Fonda was particularly displeased that the movie focused more on the maverick cop than his character, nevertheless the film proved to be a hit commercially and critically ...

8.Killers (1964) starring: Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson, John Cassavetes, Clu Gulager, Claude Akins directed by: Don Siegel February 28, 1995

9.Escape from Alcatraz starring: Clint Eastwood, Patrick McGoohan, Roberts Blossom, Jack Thibeau, Fred Ward directed by: Don Siegel March 22, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.71
This film based on a true incident involving the last successful escape from Alcatraz was the last colloboration between Clint Eastwood and Don Siegel and the result is a winner!! Tightly directed by Siegel in a semi-documentary style, Eastwood is perfectly cast as the lone mastermind behind the escape but before that occurs we are treated to the oppressive treatment of the convicts as adminstred by cruel, sadistic warden, excellently played by Patrick McGoohan. In fact the scenes between McGoohan and Eastwood are perfectly played and an able supporting cast led by Roberts Blossom, Larry Hankin, and in a minor role, Danny Glover help out also. If you like prison dramas in the mode of "Brute Force" or Siegel's "Riot in Cell Block 11" (another classic of its kind) then you'll like this one.

10.Death of a Gunfighter (1987) starring: Richard Widmark, Lena Horne, Carroll O'Connor, David Opatoshu, Kent Smith directed by: Alan Smithee, Don Siegel, Robert Totten
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.16
Partly directed by Robert Totten, partly directed by Don Siegel and finally credited to the fictitious Alan Smithee. Baroque western, DEATH OF A GUNFIGHTER (1969) is a curiosity that deserves to be seen. You can find this movie, in a pristine copy, at Amazon.fr on a brand new zone 2 DVD.
