Nanny McPhee (Widescreen Edition)
Emma Thompson, Colin Firth
Universal Studios, 2006
Nanny McPhee
I bought this movie because it was on the TV. I enjoyed it with Nanny McPhee teaching the kids some manners. Nanny McPhee stands for no foolhardiness and doesn't let the children away with any nonscense. She even tells the cook to make them soup which looks rotten and ...

Bridget Jones - The Edge of Reason (Widescreen Edition)
Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant
Universal Studios, 2005
Bridget Jones - The Edge of Reason
This is a must see if you enjoyed Bridgit Jones's Diary. It's the "rest of the story". Because I liked Bridgit Jones's Diary and Bridget Jones -The Edge of Reason so much, I ordered them for my DVD library to watch whenever I need some joy and a laugh.

Love Actually (Widescreen Edition)
Hugh Grant, Liam Neeson
Universal Studios, 2004
This movie is love...
There is a lot going on in `Love Actually'; a whole lot. That is a good thing, for that means that there is more to love, and love I do, for `Love Actually' is kind of like the ultimate romantic comedy. The film revolves around eight couples (not always in the most ...

The Importance of Being Earnest
Rupert Everett, Colin Firth
Miramax, 2002
Hilarious Fun
This video arrived in mint condition and far sooner than I had expected.
As far as the story goes - it is simply very funny and very well acted. Colin Firth and the rest of the cast are the best!
There are nuances that one would miss on the first viewing of ...

Shakespeare in Love (Miramax Collector's Series)
Geoffrey Rush, Joseph Fiennes
Miramax, 1999
Much Ado about Writing
Writing a play is a tiresome burden when you don't have the faintest idea what it is going to be about but you need to hand it over real soon. Fortunately, Will Shakespeare finds his muse and the authors of the screenplay also had at least a brief encounter with ...

Pride and Prejudice - The Special Edition (A&E, 1996)
Colin Firth, Jennifer Ehle
A&E Home Video, 2001
The Quintessential Adaptation!!!!
This is by far the best adaptation of the classic novel that I have ever seen! The first time that I saw this movie on A&E 10 years ago I fell in love with it before I had read the book. I was afraid to read the book at first because it has always been my experience ...

Then She Found Me
Matthew Broderick, Colin Firth
THINKFILM, 2008
Happy I found this film
I really enjoyed this movie. I thought it was very well written and each actor gave a wonderful performance. I'm glad Helen Hunt was finally able to get this story on film. Bravo!

Conspiracy
Clare Bullus, Kenneth Branagh
Hbo Home Video, 2002
Super Movie
This movie is really good to have. It really brings home again how terrible a thing it was about the Nazis killing the Jews. A good movie to make a older teenage sit down and watch to understand history's violence and agression.

Bridget Jones's Diary (Collector's Edition)
Renée Zellweger, Gemma Jones
Miramax, 2004
You'll never get a boyfriend if you look like you wandered out of Auschwitz.
OK, I am an avid fan of Jane Austen, but Bridget Jones is NOTHING like Austen. Anyone with the slightest of ideas on the subject can see that.
Helen Fielding wrote both the novel and the screenplay to Bridget Jones's Diary and yes, it is loosely based on Pride and ...

Girl With a Pearl Earring
Colin Firth, Scarlett Johansson
Lions Gate, 2004
If Vermeer Was Brit
This beautifully made film is worth seeing for the heavily meditated transmission of 17th century Dutch art to the screen, a stunning achievement. Delft is wonderfully recreated based on the works of Vermeer and many other painters. The basic story line about a ...

Equus
Richard Burton, Peter Firth
MGM (Video & DVD), 2003
A WORK OF ART
EQUUS is one of those plays you never forget after you see it. Although the theatrical version is matchless, this film adaptation succeeds in bringing into the widescreen the painful drama of these two characters who represent - in many aspects - the torments of modern ...
