Mother Love (1989) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Maybe I am romanticizing this Mystery (or was it Masterpiece Theatre) presentation, but a lot of other people still talk about it. IN FACT, a dear friend of mine was talking about Mother Love and remembering Diana Rigg's wonderfully chilling performance. I want a copy for me, but I really want to get...

Celine Dion - CBS Special Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)If it is, Celine fans are in for a treat! The CBS special captures the Celine we know and love, performing many songs from "A New Day Has Come" while mixing in some fan favorites ("Beauty and the Beast" feat. Brian McKnight!)as well. She sang a movie medley of "Because you loved me", "My Heart Will Go...

Me and Orson Welles (2009) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Orson Welles was a genius in many, many areas. He was an incredible actor, a brilliant director and a showman of the first order. He was also, from many accounts, a major jerk; obsessive and controlling, manipulative and unpleasant. Someone who at least as nasty to his friends as to his enemies. He was,...

Tenko: The Complete Classic Drama Series Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I was enthralled when the original series of Tenko came on PBS, I never missed an episode and had some on tape.

Thin Lizzy: Live & Dangerous Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)If you have the cd (or vinyl of course!) of L&D, or if you saw them live on this tour in 1978 then do not buy this DVD under any circumstances.

Jewel: The Essential Live Songbook (2007) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I have been a jewel fan from the beginning but still haven't been able to make any of her live shows. After watching this DVD, it makes me even more motivated to see her live. I love the acoustic performance and I think this is where Jewel really shines. It beats listening to her CDs hands down. She...

Christabel (1989) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)While the edits in this DVD version of a 1989 miniseries aired on Masterpiece Theater in the US aren't blatant, to anyone familiar with the original version, they are striking by their absence. And the material that has been cut makes the plot much richer without detracting from the suspense of the plot.The...

Waiting for Godot Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)"Nothing happens, nobody comes, nobody goes, it's awful!". That phrase, said by one of the main characters of "Waiting for Godot", somehow sums up the whole plot of this short tragicomedy in two acts. Strange??. You can bet on that!!!. So much that a well-known Irish critic said of it "nothing happens,...

Girls Town (1959) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Was this bad-girls-in-reform-school flick made in an attempt to cash in on the Academy Award-winning "Boys' Town" or did the studio just happen to have a few dozen nun's habits in their wardrobe department? Tubby, dewlapped crooner Mel Torme frames busty bottle-blonde bombshell bad-girl Silver Morgan...

Riot (1990) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Without a doubt, this DVD contains an excellent playlist of Bad Religion songs. Unfortunately, the audio is disappointing. The vocals are often drowned out by the instruments. When I first watched it, I was slightly disgruntled; however, during my second viewing, I turned up the volume and found myself...
