1.Hustler starring: Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason, Piper Laurie, George C. Scott, Myron McCormick directed by: Robert Rossen October 19, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $3.94
When Newman died I decided to buy this movie. It shows him at his prime. The Hustler is a movie about redemption in 1961 America. The movie's pacing is different from the standard movie. This is a classic. It's fun to revisit the 50's and early 60's to see the time and values put forth by Hollywood. This is a pre-Beatle, pre-boomer movie but one that shaped boomer genaeration. Seldom do we see redeeming movies anymore. It was such an important theme back then. I guess we have forgotten our classic in now fast-paced world of grab the most stuff. This movie is a trip back to a different time. Outstanding cinematography.

2.All the King's Men starring: Broderick Crawford, John Ireland, Joanne Dru, John Derek, Mercedes McCambridge directed by: Robert Rossen June 21, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.84
...the more they stay the same. A classic film that's a little raw in its telling, but is still a film with a lot to say. Broderick Crawford gives a great performance of a 'Hick' lawyer that pulls himself through the muck with good intentions, but soon finds out how much mud can stick to you and sling onto others. There are elements in this film that is still true and relevant to our political officials to this day. A man is born in sin and raised in corruption, after all. A good film that all movie lovers should see.

4.They Came to Cordura starring: Gary Cooper, Rita Hayworth, Van Heflin, Tab Hunter, Richard Conte directed by: Robert Rossen September 29, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.50
Cheyenne Warrior: The Original Screenplay with Author Commentary Shadow Watcher Nobody Drowns in Mineral Lake "What is courage? What is cowardice?" Those are the questions posed in this impressive, intelligent western, set against the backdrop of the 1916 war against Pancho Villa. Gary Cooper stars as a career Army officer, branded a coward, who is given the task of leading five Medal of Honor candidates to the military base at Cordura, Texas. His hope is to learn what prompted these men to act heroically under fire when he could not. Accompanying the group is Rita Hayworth, an American expatriate accused of aiding the Mexicans. What makes this story interesting is that the group Cooper is leading is filled with men who are of low ... Read More

5.Island in the Sun starring: James Mason, Joan Fontaine, Dorothy Dandridge, Joan Collins, Michael Rennie directed by: Robert Rossen February 03, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.99
On an island in the West Indies, four couples struggle to find happiness, with varying results. Plantation owner Maxwell Fleury (James Mason) fears his wife is unfaithful to him, his sister (Joan Collins) falls for a young British nobleman but carries a dangerous secret, his sister-in-law (Joan Fontaine) falls for a political organizer (Harry Belafonte), and a store clerk (Dorothy Dandridge) has an affair with a British officer. This movie deals with two inter-racial romances and was quite controversial in 1957. It tried to be daring and ground-breaking, but any semblance of inter-racial affection was censored out, resulting in a shallow, uninvolving melodrama. It moves too quickly from couple to couple in order to serve the large cast, and the result is that none of the plot lines is ... Read More

6.Alexander the Great (1956) starring: Richard Burton, Fredric March, Claire Bloom, Danielle Darrieux, Barry Jones directed by: Robert Rossen September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.87
This is a better movie then the new one they made with Colin Farell. It is more refreshing to watch a movie that is easier to understand about the history then the confusing flashbacks that do not explain enough.
