1.Anne of Green Gables starring: Megan Follows, Colleen Dewhurst, Richard Farnsworth, Patricia Hamilton, Marilyn Lightstone directed by: Kevin Sullivan April 16, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.99
this is the best in the three part series. it follows the book almost to a "T" and the acting is splendid. if you have children who are yet too young to read, this is a great way to share the ANNE OF GREEN GABLES experience with them.

2.Angus starring: Charlie Talbert, George C. Scott, Kathy Bates, Perry Anzilotti, Robert Curtis Brown directed by: Patrick Read Johnson August 27, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $15.88
I love this movie. I haven't seen it in years and I am dismayed to learn that it isn't available on DVD yet. This is one of the best teen movies I have ever seen. It's sweet, honest, funny and kind. Please release Angus on DVD soon powers that be. Thanks!

3.The Education of Little Tree starring: James Cromwell, Joseph Ashton, Tantoo Cardinal, Mika Boorem, Christopher Heyerdahl directed by: Richard Friedenberg March 09, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $11.95
I caught this movie on TV this morning, had never heard of the book. Whoa, where to start! From the opening moments, too much exposition of who,what,where, why and when instead of peppering it out sparingly through the movie. Everyone is a walking cliche'. I winced when Graham Greene first came on screen dressed like what Hollywood thinks an Indian should look like, he being quiet and so attuned to the "spirits" he could barely speak. I hated that the director chose to "tell" of the Trails of Tears instead of "showing" it to us via flashbacks. In fact I zoned out during this 5 minute disseration and never heard the end. Little Tree is 8 years old in this story, talks with the wisdom of a 50 year old. Yuk! I HATE that! He speaks in phrases that ... Read More

4.The '60s starring: Josh Hamilton, Julia Stiles, Jerry O'Connell, Jeremy Sisto, Jordana Brewster directed by: Mark Piznarski June 22, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $10.25
I ordered this item over a month ago and have yet to recieve it. I contacted both the seller and amazon yet still to hear back. Poor customer service

5.Anne of Avonlea starring: Megan Follows, Colleen Dewhurst, Wendy Hiller, Frank Converse, Jonathan Crombie directed by: Kevin Sullivan April 16, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.00
messes the story line up a bit, but keeps the most important elements for the most part. if you've read the books, it might be a little disapointing, but once you get wrapped up in it, you'll get over that disapointment.

6.Bronx Tale starring: Patrick Borriello, Lillo Brancato, Francis Capra, Clem Caserta, Robert D'Andrea February 14, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.00
Do not buy from Amazon marketplace vendor MOVIESONSALE1. They advertised Bronx Tale as wide screen but sent the movie in full screen version with misleading packaging. Now I know why their rating is only 89% satisfaction. They collect money and deposit it and accrue interest and wait for the buyer to complain. I waited over a month to watch this movie and I went ballistic. After contacting the seller they claim they will send me a prepaid envelope and a full refund.

7.The Outsiders starring: C. Thomas Howell, Matt Dillon, Ralph Macchio, Patrick Swayze, Rob Lowe directed by: Francis Ford Coppola April 27, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.39
This is a great DVD with the extra scenes in it bringing the book more fully to life Don't get me wrong I adored the original but this is better. I think the music is fine and not at all distracting. Highly recommended.

8.Ode to Billy Joe starring: Robby Benson, Glynnis O'Connor, Joan Hotchkis, Sandy McPeak, James Best directed by: Max Baer Jr. January 18, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $19.99
********* SPOILER ALERT ********* This was a well-acted portrayal of teen heartache and heartbreak. The lyrics of the theme song by Bobbie Gentry allegedly had some basis in truth. Max Baer Jr.'s production of this film gave him a vehicle to break out of his "Jethro Bodine" stereotype. A young Mackenzie Philips played Bobbie Lee's friend. When I saw this film as a youth one of my schoolmates reached the conclusion that "Billy Joe was gay". I disagreed then and I still do. Billy Joe was young, intoxicated, and taken advantage of by an older man. There was nothing to suggest that he was on the prowl, searching for male partners. If anything, he was totally in love with and attracted to his girl. The ... Read More

9.Corn Is Green (1945) starring: Bette Davis, John Dall, Nigel Bruce, Rhys Williams, Rosalind Ivan directed by: Irving Rapper September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.44
"A full, ripe ear of emotion and enjoyment" -New York Herald Tribune Bette Davis gives a sharp, vital interpretation of Miss Moffat(the spinster teacher fighting to educate the poor children of a Welsh mining village)...by remaining true to its legitimate stage counterpart," adds the Hearld Tribune. The story, based on Emlyn Williams' autobiographical play, focuses on the relationship between Miss Moffat and her gifted young prodigy from the mines, Morgan Evans (John Dall). "Consumed by inward fire, by the sheer joy of imparting knowledge" (London Picture Post), she molds him into a legitimate candidate for an Oxford scholarship in the remarkably short span of two years. Despite the disaster of Morgan's seduction by trouble-making Bessie (Joan Lorring), the mutual ... Read More

10.Good Will Hunting starring: Robin Williams, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Stellan Skarsgård, Minnie Driver directed by: Gus Van Sant December 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.01
Character development at it's best. Written and on the screen. It draws audiences to see it and big name talent to be in it.
