Long Hot Summer (1958)
Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward
20th Century Fox, 2003
WOW! Paul Newman!
I first saw this movie in black and white one summer when I was a teenager and I thought it was very steamy then. Now I'm a grandma and it's almost as steamy. I was a little disappointed the movie had been colorized...but Paul Newman is gorgeous!

Tomorrow Is Forever
Lois Austin, George Brent
MGM (Video & DVD), 1998
Emotional Sentimentality
This is an outstanding sentimentalist film. It is very touching and heartbreaking to watch, but I still do watch it. Orson Welles gives a mesmerizing performance as John MacDonald, a man who is badly wounded and transfigured by his experiences in the First World War. ...

Moby Dick
Gregory Peck, Richard Basehart
MGM (Video & DVD), 1996
"A White Whale I Say" ~ A Luciferian Allegory Played Out On The High Seas
Released in '56, `Moby Dick' is one of the film classics of the fifties. Surprisingly the film quality is rather drab at times with the appearance of old newsreel footage. This is generally the case with the shots aboard the Pequot showing billowing sails or the ship ...

It was a time of dashed dreams and lost fortunes. But it also proved America's resilience hardship was met by hope, and tragedy answered with daring plans. From the stock market crash of 1929 to the recovery spurred by the coming of WWII, THE GREAT DEPRESSION is an illuminating look at a difficult age. See how Americans united in the face of ...

Tape was brand new and I received it in just 3 or 4 days after I placed my order. My husband's uncle was one of the soldiers in the movie and we were thrilled to be able to find the movie.

Waterloo
Rod Steiger, Christopher Plummer
Paramount Home Video, 1991
One of Steiger's most underappreciated roles in an epic film...
In the tradition of the cinematic epics like Kubrick's "Spartacus" and Mann's "Fall of the Roman Empire," Bondarchuk's "Waterloo" succeeds in depicting Napoleon's desperate and final bid for power and glory. Steiger, no stranger to roles that have consistently ...
