1.12 Angry Men starring: Jack Lemmon, George C. Scott, Hume Cronyn, Ossie Davis, Courtney B. Vance directed by: William Friedkin November 07, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $13.95
Watching this 1997 version of 12 ANGRY MEN recently, I was struck by the fact that four of the 12 actors in key roles here have since passed away. That has absolutely nothing to do with the film's quality, of course (or nothing directly to do with it), but it is striking that key members of this impressive cast--and of course, I'm referring to Jack Lemmon, George C. Scott, Hume Cronyn and Ossie Davis-- have gone on to that jury box in the sky. As I say, the fact that these great actors have all died within the past decade is not a direct reflection on the film itself. But it does raise at least one issue that a previous reviewer has noted: namely, the question of the cast's relative age in comparison to the cast of the 1957 classic movie version. Jack Lemmon was 72 when he played ... Read More

2.Separate But Equal starring: Sidney Poitier, Burt Lancaster, Richard Kiley, Cleavon Little, Gloria Foster directed by: George Stevens Jr. January 16, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.75
SEPARATE BUT EQUAL (1991-PG) is one of my favorite movies. Nominated for seven Emmy Awards. It is about the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court Case. Starring Sidney Poitier as Thurgood Marshall, the lead attorney for the NAACP, Burt Lancaster, as John W. Davis, arguing the other side, and Richard Kiley, as Chief Justice Earl Warren, it is a powerful story about one of the most important Supreme Court Decisions in the history of our country. The first half is set in South Carolina and depicts the human side of that tragic law called 'separate but equal'. They were separate but anything BUT equal. The second half is the legal battle. My only comment would be that this should be REQUIRED WATCHING to understand the background of the civil rights' movement and the racial situation in our ... Read More

3.To Kill a Mockingbird (Widescreen) starring: Gregory Peck, John Megna, Frank Overton, Rosemary Murphy, Ruth White directed by: Robert Mulligan February 24, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $2.30
To Kill a Mockingbird (Collector's Edition) Lone fathers and their kids have been a hit in many movies. I have severl examples, like, Ryan and Tatum O'Neil in Paper Moon, Jon Voight and Ricky Schroeder in the re-make of 'The Champ' and Dustin Hoffman and Justin Henry in Kramer vs Kramer. Gregory Peck, won an Academy Award, for playing a sole parent, and he's never been better. The script for this movie was based upon Harper Lee's sensitive and intelligent novel set in racially-torn Alabama. Gregory Peck, plays Atticus Finch, a wise lawyer bravely raising his two kids Jem(Phillip Alford) and Scout(Mary Badham) in the hot-headed Southern town. The crux of the plot is Finch's defence of a colored man accused of rape. The film was put together by two excellent film-makers, producer Alan J. Pakula ... Read More

4.Verdict (1982) starring: Paul Newman, Charlotte Rampling, Jack Warden, James Mason, Milo O'Shea directed by: Sidney Lumet April 01, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $8.95
The Verdict (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) One of many of the late, GREAT Paul Newman's fine work on film. I first saw this film in the theater and simply had to purchase the DVD after the sad news of his passing. I think it is one of the must-haves of his work as an actor.

5.The List of Adrian Messenger starring: George C. Scott, Kirk Douglas, Robert Mitchum, Burt Lancaster, Tony Curtis directed by: John Huston January 12, 1994

6.Assault on a Queen starring: Frank Sinatra, Virna Lisi, Anthony Franciosa, Richard Conte, Alf Kjellin directed by: Jack Donohue January 01, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $24.99
Welcome to my review. This particular version of the movie Assault on a Queen(VHS) is ample yet rare so if you see it cheap grab it before somebody else does to sell it on eBay. I take it you don't jump over tall buildings in a single bound or lay down with lions but if you do then this movie will still impress you I'm sure. Take the world famous Steamship HMS Queen Mary and chances are you've never seen her. Or for that matter noticed her even in photographs. But she's real and big for her age and at the time of this movie well dressed and rich... to staggering proportions. Not at all what would come to mind for the most of us. Frank Sinatra... my favourite male actor of all time plays an American, well, and in so doing gives this film some character that although appreciated is not without even support ... Read More

The movie is just a small sample that proves Bible is a bunch of baloney Ivan- Brazil

This movie is great viewing.Just the ticket for people trapped in a mundane existence.It starts out in seedy Vera Cruz sailors bars and takes you on a wild ride with desperate characters in a romp through beautifully shot southern Mexico.One of those great adventures in a foreign land movies.A boozy,brawling,sexy,and somewhat vulgar movie,and very entertaining!
