Union Pacific

Barbara Stanwyck, Joel McCrea

Universal Studios, 1995

An epic huge-scale western
I hate the way people look at a black and white classic film and automatically think that the movie has to be bad. People only see the poor special effects and the absense of color but never judge a book by it's cover. " Union Pacific " is has a great western backed by ...

Beau Geste

Gary Cooper, Ray Milland

Universal Studios, 1992

Terrific cast.
Intriguing from the start, this adventure begins at the end of the story, with a foreign legion troop arriving to reinforce a fort in the desert, to find it defended by dead men. How it got that way unfolds in a flashback story of the three adopted Geste Brothers ...

Never So Few

Frank Sinatra, Gina Lollobrigida

MGM (Warner), 1998

NEVER SO FEW
ONE OF FRANK SINATRA'S BEST WAR MOVIE'S, IT GAVE STEVE McQUEEN HIS FIRST BIG BREAK AS A LEAD IN A MOVIE, SHARING THE BILL WITH SEVERAL OTHERS INCLUDING PETER LAWFORD. IT WAS A BREATHOUGH ROLE FOR HIM, AND A THOUGHLY ENJOYABLE MOVIE FOR ONE AND ALL.

Jessie James

Tyrone Power, Henry Fonda

20th Century Fox, 1999

jesse james
I had seen this movie back in 1939 and have always considered it a good movie for Tyrone Power. It is just a good western and feel it took me back to when the movies were interesting and clean. Jesse James just holds your interest.

Quatermass Xperiment

Brian Donlevy, Jack Warner

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

A good movie to see
Only true fans of science fiction will appreciate the creeping unknown a.k.a.The Quatermass Xperiment. I happen to be one of them. I remember watching this fim at the age of eight and it scared me silly. Later on I understood better and it didn't bother me. ...

Owen Wister's The Virginian (Universal Western Collection)

Joel McCrea, Brian Donlevy

Universal Studios, 1996

1946 "Virginian"
this is a remake in technicolor of the 1930 black and white classic, with Joel McCrea playing the Gary Cooper hero role and Brian Donlevy playing the evil Trampas as earlier portrayed by Walter Huston. Sonny Tufts is a little goofier but still good as the doomed ...

Great Mcginty

Brian Donlevy, Muriel Angelus

Universal Studios, 1992

Sturges at the beginning of his great career as writer/director
Preston Sturges's first film as writer AND director (he sold the script to the studio for $10 for the privilege to direct it), and although the script won the Academy Award, it's a tribute to just how great Sturges's movies are that this one is not up to the wackiness ...

Hostile Guns

George Montgomery, Yvonne De Carlo

Paramount, 1995

A Tab Hunter Western
A grade "B" western that deserves a "D" grade. It showcased a Tab Hunter as a young cowboy with a cocky attitude, but Tab was 35 by the time this western was made and in some cases he looked it. However there was excellent character interplay between Hunter and George ...

Command Decision

Clark Gable, Walter Pidgeon

MGM (Warner), 1998

Command Decision
One of the earliest attempts to show the politics and terrible strain on a leader's conscience as America debates the effectiveness of daylight bombing. Great dialogue, made more intense by Clark Gable, Walter Pidgeon, and Brian Donleavy. Not much in the way of plane ...

Big Combo

Cornel Wilde, Richard Conte

Image Entertainment, 2000

Great movie, great price!
I don't have to repeat everything that others have written-- this is a great movie! I already had the Image DVD when I decided to buy the Geneon PD release for just over a dollar from an Amazon seller to send to a friend. I expected the inexpensive public domain ...

Kiss of Death

Victor Mature, Brian Donlevy

20th Century Fox, 1995

Was the "Wheelchair giggle" scene cut?
This film is terrific, and the video transfer is great. But I have a question for anyone who can answer. I have a distinct recollection from many many years ago when I last saw this film, that when Richard Widmark pushes Mildred Dunnock down the stairs in a ...

The Errand Boy

Stanley Adams, Iris Adrian

Anchor Bay Entertainment, 1994

Errand Boy Gets the Job Done
I had never seen this particular Jerry Lewis film until it recently came to DVD and wasn't sure what to expect. What I saw was nearly 90 minutes of the most biting satire I have ever seen propogated against Hollywood and I love it! It is incredible to think that this ...

In Old Chicago

Tyrone Power, Alice Faye

20th Century Fox, 1994

Now That's Entertainment!
They really do not make movies like this wonderful classic anymore. Fine lead performances from handsome Tyrone Power, beautiful Alice Faye and debonair Don Ameche. Hearing the gorgeous Ms. Faye sing my state song "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny" is well worth the price ...

Two Years Before the Mast (B&W)

Alan Ladd, Brian Donlevy

Universal Studios, 1998

A Great movie, with a Great Star!
One of the best (boys) adventure books ever written was Charles Henry Dana's Two Years Before the Mast. I read this book when I was 12, along with R.L. Stevenson's Treasure Island, and DaFoe's Robinson Caruso. This movie adaptation of Dana's work is as close to ...
