The Revolution: A ... Rose Friedman Edition Pocketconsult Van Heflin

Barbara Stanwyck, James Mason

MGM (Warner), 1994

A loyal, rich wife, a prowling husband with a slippery zipper, a murder...Barbara Stanwyck, James Mason, lots of melodrama
We're going to have to keep some things straight, so please pay attention. "A" is loyal, sincere and society-style rich. Her mom's even richer. She's in love with "B," a charming, compulsive philanderer and nicely turned-out cad. They're married. Every Thursday they go ...

Green Dolphin Street [VHS]

Van Heflin, Lana Turner

MGM (Warner), 1994

LOVE LOVE LOVE - What Kind of LOVE?
Love. That's what this film is about. The different kinds of love and the interaction of learning to love with developing a sense of self. I won't repeat what all the other reviewers here have done so well but add a couple of additional observations. First of all ...

3:10 to Yuma [VHS]

Glenn Ford, Van Heflin

Sony Pictures, 1996

A comparison between the new and old
I'm glad I saw the original first. Short comparison: original is genuinely great; remake is merely good. Longer comparison: the original handles the hero and villain very differently from most movies, especially from that era. The bad guy isn't your typical ...

They Came to Cordura [VHS]

Gary Cooper, Rita Hayworth

Sony Pictures, 1997

Hah!
I disagree with all the characteizations in the first three reviews of this film; They Came To Cordura. I found the film fascinating, complex, thought provoking, and above all well acted. It's too bad Tab Hunter got pigion-holed as a prettyboy--the talent he showed in ...

Madame Bovary (1991) [VHS]

Jennifer Jones, James Mason

MGM (Warner), 1999

The Best Version of Madame Bovary
An extremely well-written and well-presented movie. James Mason's role as the author, in the court scene, is very impressive, bringing out underlying social issues and women's issues. The beauty of Jennifer Jones stands out,and the charm of Louis Jourdan is ...

Airport [VHS]

Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin

Good Times Home Video, 1998

The One That Started It All, For Better Or Worse
If the disaster film genre of the 1970s had an actual starting point, it would arguably have to be with the 1970 film AIRPORT. Based on Arthur Hailey's best-selling 1968 novel of the same name, and adapted to the screen by director George Seaton, who also did the 1947 ...

Ruthless Four [VHS]

Van Heflin, Gilbert Roland

Monterey Home Video, 1990

Excellent spaghetti yet not spaghetti western
This low budget spaghetti western from the late sixties is in my opinion one of the best western films made after 1965, if I could pick one western made after that year that is not well known but deserves to be it would be this film. The plot is sort of like the ...

The Greatest Story Ever Told [VHS]

Max von Sydow, Dorothy McGuire

MGM (Video & DVD), 1993

A movie title that lives up to its name!
I had seen this movie on cable channel and decided to purchase it. This is 1 of the best depictions of JESUS life I have come across. Even the actors seemed into their parts with JOHN WAYNE even in the end. This is good reflection of how modern man interprets the ...

Woman's World [VHS]

Van Heflin, Lauren Bacall

20th Century Fox, 1995

One of the most enchating 50's movies!
This movie is a must own. It has an all star cast that includes Lauren Bacall, June Allyson, Arlene Dahl, Van Heflin, Fred MacMurray, and Cornel Wilde. Three different couples travel to New York for their husdbands to interview for a position, but they soon ...

Three Musketeers (1948) [VHS]

Lana Turner, Gene Kelly

MGM (Warner), 1995

The Three Musketeers
Great cast. I love Gene Kelly and June Allyson in this movie. This is a great family movie. I am glad to have it in my classic collection.

Madame Bovary (MGM/UA Great Books on Video) [1949, Loew's Inc] [VHS]

Jennifer Jones, James Mason

MGM/UA Home Entertainment

Every sin demands a prize!
Madame Bovary is one of the most priceless examples of the Romantic literature that stands out among a group of related works in other countries. As a matter of fact, you may include Anna Karenina in Russia, Effie Briest in Germany and Tess in England. The common ...

Presenting Lily Mars [VHS]

Judy Garland, Van Heflin

MGM (Video & DVD), 1992

One of Judy's best
This is one of Judy's best early (pre Meet me in st louis) movies, and she looks beautiful in it. Well worth having, though not one of her best musically, it's still better than most other films without Judy!

Battle Cry (1955) [VHS]

Van Heflin, Aldo Ray

Warner Home Video, 2001

I purchased "Battle Cry" & loved it
I had ordered this movie, as it had been one we hadn't viewed in years and it was an excellent movie, with a great cast. Ordering was made easy, and delivery came in a significant amount of time. I can always rely on Amazon.com to find just about any movie that I'm ...

Possessed (1947) [VHS]

Joan Crawford, Van Heflin

MGM (Warner), 1998

tried and true formula
Do not confuse this with Joan Crawford's '47 classic, the Oscar nominated role that has became one of Joan's defining pictures. Only an actress who's career spanned 6 decades can play in two pictures, in two different decades with the same title. (BTW, in case you're ...
