1.Turning Point starring: Anne Bancroft, Shirley MacLaine, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Leslie Browne, Tom Skerritt directed by: Herbert Ross May 19, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $1.60
I am very surprised that this movie had this high ratings. I may agree with others on the right casting, but this was not my genre. I mean, I love watching ballet but I hated to see ballet connected with divorce, alcohol, sexual relationships before marriage, jealous, mean words and actions, and swearing words. It was a very ugly movie with a beautiful ballet. The dance was exquisite but I didn't enjoy it at all because I didn't like the characters at all. When my daughter covered her ears, I had to turn it off. The peace came back as soon as it was shut off. I picked this movie because it was on the government's pick list, but I don't think my Heavenly Father wants me to watch this again.

2.Chalk Garden starring: Deborah Kerr, Hayley Mills, John Mills, Edith Evans, Felix Aylmer directed by: Ronald Neame March 01, 1992
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $13.89
16-year old Laurel (Hayley Mills) likes to set fires, scream, tell lies, and generally boss around her doddering grandmother and tolerant butler (John Mills). When Miss Madrigal (Deborah Kerr) is hired as the new governess, Laurel begins her usual spying and tormenting in an effort to drive her away, but ends up discovering a terrible secret. This movie marked Hayley Mills' effort to break away from little girl roles and expand her emotional range. Unfortunately, she isn't quite up to the material and instead does a lot of energetic shouting with no real pain or conviction behind it. Her lack of acting maturity is especially noticeable because the rest of the cast is so outstanding: Edith Evans is impressive as Laurel's stubborn grandmother and Deborah Kerr is flawless as the ...

4.Evening Star starring: Shirley MacLaine, Bill Paxton, Juliette Lewis, Miranda Richardson, Ben Johnson directed by: Robert Harling October 14, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.50
By the time Jack Nicholson shows up for about five minutes of screen time as Garrett Breedlove, this turgid 1996 sequel to 1983's Terms of Endearment has already slogged through two deaths, a psychotherapist with an Oedipal complex, and a lot of scrapbooks. The problems with this shamelessly manipulative movie are many, and they all begin with the inevitable premise that tough Texas matron Aurora Greenway can carry on without being challenged by her feisty daughter Emma. However, without Debra Winger's earthy grit counterbalancing Shirley MacLaine's flamboyant disapproval, the story seems to work in a vacuum. Much of the appeal and resonance of the first film came from how these characters dealt with life's unpredictable course and how James L. Brooks captured their idiosyncrasies with a refreshing ...

5.Ponette starring: Victoire Thivisol, Delphine Schiltz, Matiaz Bureau Caton, Léopoldine Serre, Marie Trintignant directed by: Jacques Doillon May 25, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $7.96
Note: French with English subtitles. Synopsis: Little Ponette (Victoire Thivisol) has recently lost her Mother in a car accident.

Death, dreams, Heaven, Jesus, the All-Mighty are all discussed by this group of bright, young minds who try and help her make sense of it all. Even the use and benefit of magic Smarties is considered as a possible avenue to the realm of the dead. Through all the grief and sorrow Ponette ... Read More

7.Little Women (1949) starring: June Allyson, Peter Lawford, Margaret O'Brien, Elizabeth Taylor, Janet Leigh directed by: Mervyn LeRoy December 23, 1993
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $0.95
The movie arrived in good condition and quickly. The only problem was, I had ordered the older version of the movie (1949), not the 1994 version.

8.Short Cuts starring: Andie MacDowell, Julianne Moore, Tim Robbins, Bruce Davison, Jack Lemmon directed by: Robert Altman March 26, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $6.44
This is the same edition that came out in 2004; it does not contain any new features. I looked on Criterion's website, and apparently the only thing "new" about this edition is the lower retail price. Still a great movie, so if you don't own it yet, now you can get it for less money. Very cool feature-length making-of documentary included.

9.Household Saints starring: Tracey Ullman, Vincent D'Onofrio, Lili Taylor, Judith Malina, Michael Rispoli directed by: Nancy Savoca April 18, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $14.82
This was a great, fun movie! Very Catholic, very ethnic, very 50's! Vincent D'onofro is terrific and Tracey Ullman is wonderful,too. Well worth a look!
