1.The Century-America's Time (Boxed Set) starring: Peter Jennings, Linda Hunt, Elinor Sullivan, Carolyn Porco, Col. Stuart Herrington March 23, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $41.00
As for the person who complained that Martin Scorcese called the '80's the "me" decade, that was a popular theme of the time. Maybe you should go back and look at 80's and the literature about it from all kind of sources. Just like the 20's was often refered to as the "Roaring" 20's. 80's was often called the "me" decade. I also think it is not a liberal or conservative designation. Following the internalization of values and desires in the 70's, the 80's was when technology, growth, income and development all led to the application of the 70's trend of an individual ethic. People DID become more selfish and self centered, more complacent, in need of more instant gratification.

Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.80
The story of Sarah, Plain and Tall by Patricia MacLaclan is a pioneer fiction about a family who needs a mother and a wife, and a lady who needs a home. It is sad, funny, happy, scary, exciting, and keeps me guessing. Jacob Witting needs a helpful, hardworking wife and a mother for his young children Anna and Caleb. He puts an ad for a wife in the newspaper. He receives a response from Sarah Elisabeth Wheaton of Maine. In the early spring, Jacob goes to the train station to bring Sarah home. He dresses up and makes his hair very slick and shiny. Sarah Wheaton makes herself at home with the Wittings. She helps clean the house. She goes and picks wild flowers with Caleb. They gather paintbrush, clover, prairie violets, roses, and bride's bonnet. She cuts Caleb's and ... Read More

This is a great movie. One of my all time favorites. Why it's not on DVD yet, when everything in DVD, is beyond me. Studio execs, listen up, this movie on DVD would sell big time!!!

Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $7.95
This really is a great movie. Wells does a fantastic job as narrator. It's great fun and great entertainment. I remember watching this movie in the mid 80's on VHS and being freaked out about the end of the world predictions. Time passed and we're still here. The story is filled holes and lies, but it's all good fun just the same.

Hello to all Elvis Fans. I purchased this VHS and reviewed it i must say it was everything i thought it would be. I am so glad that i have this even though it's on VHS it is a great video and lots of great performances by Elvis. If you don't have this by all means get it before it goes away for good. I don't think this will ever be on DVD and if it is it may not be the same quality as it is on the VHS. Every Elvis collector should have this in your collection. To see all the cities and the excited fans waiting to see him in concert and for a time you forget that this is a video you are watching because you get caught up in the excitement of Elvis going on stage and 2001 Space Odessy is playing and you know he is about to appear. Buy it before it's to late to me it doesn't matter if it's on VHS i'm glad i purchased ... Read More

10.100 Years of Olympic Glory starring: Roger Bannister, Fanny Blankers-Koen, Alain Mimoun, Naim Suleymanoglu, Ellery Clark Jr. directed by: Bud Greenspan September 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $4.15
This was a good recapp of famous scenes from the Olympics. The video highlights how a lot of the Olympic traditions began and how the modern Olympics were restarted. It takes you through three hours of the greatest Olympic moments. I was a little dissappointed that we didn't hear the orginal commentary from the games, along with Bud Greenspan. It also didn't show enough of some of the more famous Olympians - there was not much on Greg Louganis or Jesse Owins, or Nadia Comaneci. Overall I liked this video but I was a little dissappointed.
