1.Pride & Prejudice (1995) (6pc) (Coll Box) starring: Saw December 23, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.44
The title of the book and the film never seemed to appeal to me. When Amazon had this as a Gold Box Deal I thought 1,500 reviews couldn't be wrong. WOW, I love it. Mr. Darcy such a character. You cannot stand his attitude when you first meet him but you love his looks. I knew Miss Elizabeth loved and hated him right from the the start. Being a romantic at heart the looks they exchange.....hmmmm young love. If you have never seen it, this is a very nice edition. The film is beautiful in sight and feelings. The costumes are so finely done. I highly recommend this edition. I will note that with an HDTV and upconverting DVD player it is very nearly in HD, considering it was made in 1996 I consider this a very high quality set.

2.The Thorn Birds - The Complete Miniseries starring: Richard Chamberlain, Rachel Ward, Barbara Stanwyck, Christopher Plummer, Jean Simmons directed by: Daryl Duke September 26, 1995
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.89
I first saw this series when I was a child and found it to be wonderful. It still stands as a terrific miniseries, even if it is melodramatic. Ward is radiant, Chamberlain is excellent, Stanwyck and Simmons are remarkable. Incredibly tragic and romantic.

3.The Winds of War starring: Robert Mitchum, Ali MacGraw, Jan-Michael Vincent, John Houseman, Polly Bergen directed by: Dan Curtis June 25, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $29.00
Very good serie about a US naval family during the pre war days of 1939-1941. Also very informative about the outbreak of WW2

4.A Town Like Alice starring: Helen Morse, Bryan Brown, Gordon Jackson, Dorothy Alison, Yuki Shimoda directed by: David Stevens October 02, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $18.19
I loved this series, when I first watched in on television back in the '80s. Every couple of years I pull the tape off the shelf and re-watch it. This is not just for Bryan Brown fans, but for the Gordon Jackson fans in the crowd. Jackson's portrayal of a man who falls in love too late in life, is very touching. I would love to see it available on DVD!

5.Roots 6 Video Box Set starring: Maya Angelou, Ji-Tu Cumbuka, Moses Gunn, Thalmus Rasulala, Hari Rhodes directed by: Marvin J. Chomsky, David Greene, Gilbert Moses December 12, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $28.55
I was a month short of 9 years of age when Roots was first broadcast on TV. Til only recently I had never ever seen it. I heard a lot about it but never actually sat down to watch it. I was recently at our town library and decided to take volume 1 home. I was somewhat excited about it as I sat down to watch. In the first volume I found the idealization of Kunta Kinte's tribe and, except for the Ed Asner character, most white characters were 1 dimensional, to be a little too difficult to swallow. However I continue to watch. In the subsequent volumes as Kunta grew up, married and raised Kizzy, the writing of the characters began to show some depth. Frankly in those episodes I was pleased that not all white people were evil masochists. I liked Robert Reed's ... Read More

6.Great Expectations starring: Jean Simmons, John Rhys-Davies, Ray McAnally, Anthony Calf, Kim Thomson directed by: Kevin Connor May 21, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $14.57
This is the best version of Great Expectations in film, I gave it a star because it's in VHS. I have no idea why they didn't come out on DVD. Well...if any of you are waiting for DVD or planning to buy this VHS, think again. This film actually came out in DVD at UK so look somewhere else.

7.Poldark 1 (6 VHS Boxed Set) starring: Nicholas Selby, David Garfield (II), John Blythe, Tilly Tremayne, Eric Dodson directed by: Roger Jenkins, Christopher Barry (III), Kenneth Ives September 11, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $74.99
I had the VHS tapes of Poldark I and Poldark 2, but gave them away as I no longer have a VCR and I was sure they would be made available on DVD sooner or later. Woe is me, that hasn't happened yet and I'm hysterical now that I don't have the tapes because they would be worth buying a VCR to see them. There must be others like me who would relish seeing this fabulous series on DVD. Please, whoever's in charge of such things, release this series on DVD and it will sell like hotcakes.

8.Godfather Trilogy 1901-1980 starring: Al Pacino, Diane Keaton, Talia Shire, Andy Garcia, Eli Wallach directed by: Francis Ford Coppola May 06, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $43.95
This trilogy is by far the most excilerating ever. It tells the story of the rise and fall of the Corleone crime family. Although this is a fictional story, It is one of the best stories that portrays the acts of a real Mafia family. After Vito Corleone(Michael's father) dies, it is up to Michael to take up the family business. Michael finds himself turning into one of the most feared gangters of his time. Watch this action packed film with plenty of mind blowing suprises. It is an all around great trilogy staring;Al Pacino,Marlin Brando,Robert Deniro and other great actors.

9.All Creatures Great and Small, Series 2: Volumes 1-6 starring: Christopher Timothy, Robert Hardy, Peter Davison, Lynda Bellingham, Jean Heywood directed by: Michael Brayshaw September 14, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $19.79
I always love Creatures Great and Small when they were shown on WQED. Now I can watch them over and over.

10.Poldark 2 (6 VHS Boxed Set) starring: Nicholas Selby, David Garfield (II), John Blythe, Tilly Tremayne, Eric Dodson directed by: Roger Jenkins, Philip Dudley, Christopher Barry (III) September 04, 2001

This was one of the most popular series on Masterpiece Theatre. Why Why is the studio not bringing this out on DVD. The videos are available, but are very expensive. The first Masterpiece series, The First Churchills is out on DVD I love that one, why not this one. Please everybody type in your information to Amazon to be contacted when the DVD's are out. Amazon states this is a vote for the product. We can let the studio know we Want ALL OF BOTH Poldark series out on DVD ASAP.
