Average Rating:	Twelve Angry Men [1957] starring: Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, Martin Balsam, John Fiedler, E.G. Marshall directed by: Sidney Lumet March 19, 2001		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £8.01 (62%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.63
I'd love to rate it five star as everyone else has done but it was just "too" contrived, although it was the object of the film. The mix of jurors was excellent and the way the characters interacted was superb but I felt that i) it wouldn't happen as conveniently as that in reality..ii) Lee J.Cobb capitulated too easily...iii) Fonda actually thought that the boy could've committed the murder...iv) the absence of any other suspect.. ...v) if everybody's testament was flawed then not even Fonda's argument/reasoning was perfect? That said, it did enthral and showed how prejudiced our beliefs can be..but, by his analysis of human nature he could've acquitted Jack the Ripper....All in all a typical(though not at that time) lawyeristic case ...

Average Rating:	While You Were Sleeping [1995] starring: Sandra Bullock, Bill Pullman, Peter Gallagher, Peter Boyle, Jack Warden directed by: Jon Turteltaub January 22, 2001		List Price: Â£14.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.97 You Save: £10.02 (67%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£3.21
This film is a true romantic comedy classic! All the characters are loveable-especially the two lead roles played by Bullock and Pullman who are both funny and believable. However the film is also successful as a result of many of the smaller comic characters from the Callaghan family and Lucy's friends (especially the cringe-worthy Joe Jr and the loveable Saul) The film is set at christmas which adds a certain magic to the story but is a great watch all year round. Full of fun and romance with a beautiful soundtrack-it is perfect night in movie for all and sure to cause a few tears!!! Watch and fall in love... >>More Details

Average Rating:	All The President's Men (2 Disc Special Edition) [1976] starring: Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman, Jason Robards, Martin Balsam, Hal Holbrook directed by: Alan J. Pakula February 13, 2006		List Price: Â£16.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £12.01 (71%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£7.95
All The President's Men (2 Disc Special Edition) [1976]Another one of my Dad's favorite movies. He was in college during the Watergate Scandal and followed it thoroughly. I saw the movie from his collection. The EXCELLENT FILM is based on the story of two reporters for the Washington Post, Carl Bernstein(Dustin Hoffman) and Robert Woodward(Robert Redford), who stumbled across a potential lead for a story that snow-balled, to their continued horror, to the incrimination of and forced resignation of President, Richard Nixon. Fed by the mysterious "Deep Throat", Bernstein and Woodward put their own pieces together, sold two and a half million copies of the Post and won a Pulitzer Prize. The script by William Goldman and based on Bernstein's and Woodward's ... Read More: >>More Details

Average Rating:	From Here To Eternity [1953] starring: Burt Lancaster, Montgomery Clift, Deborah Kerr, Donna Reed, Frank Sinatra directed by: Fred Zinnemann January 14, 2002		List Price: Â£19.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £15.01 (75%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£25.00
From the days when doorstop novels (or at least large chunks of them) were turned into films rather than mini-series, From Here to Eternity may be toned down to please both the censors and the US Army, whose co-operation was vital to the film, but it's still a superb piece of film-making that slips in a few powerful punches between the lines. Set in Pearl Harbor in the months leading up to the Japanese attack, it focuses on two professional soldiers: Prewitt (Montgomery Clift), a hard-headed ex-boxer given 'the treatment' by his commanding officer to force him to fight in the regimental boxing championships, and the company's Top Sergeant (Burt Lancaster), who is having an affair with the officer's frigid wife (Deborah Kerr).

Average Rating:	Being There [1979] starring: Peter Sellers, Shirley MacLaine, Melvyn Douglas, Jack Warden, Richard Dysart directed by: Hal Ashby February 10, 2003		List Price: Â£13.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£4.98 You Save: £9.01 (64%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£8.97
'Being There' is a film Peter Sellers made right at the end of his career. Whatever you make of this troubled man's life, I think you will agree that the role he plays here, of Chance the gardener, represents a brave exit from the glitzy world of movies. Indeed, Being There could be seen as a satire on the celebrity industry of which Peter Sellers was so much a part. Chance is a man who has never grown up. Employed for the whole of his existence by a rich man in Washington who has just died, Chance's life has been dominated by gardening, television and little else. His employer's huge house, a home that Chance has never left for a moment, is being sold, and Chance finds himself out on the street, and hopelessly ill-equipped for this encounter with tough reality. ...

Average Rating:	Agatha Christie's Death On The Nile [1978] starring: Peter Ustinov, David Niven, Jack Warden, Maggie Smith, Jane Birkin directed by: John Guillermin January 07, 2008		List Price: Â£12.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.98 You Save: £9.01 (69%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£3.92
This is a good adaptation from the book. After watching "Evil under the Sun" and "Appointment with Death" you naturally think of Peter Ustinov as Hercule Poirot. The whole movie is packed with great actors, yet even thought you recognize them they do not distract from the characters that they play. I thought that it was a nice touch when the kids along the shore mooned Mrs. Van Schuyler (Bette Davis) as kids would do everywhere. Simon (Simon MacCorkindale) and his new bride Linnet (Lois Chiles) are being perused by Jacqueline De Bellefort (Mia Farrow) the girl he jilted. Once onboard a boat down the Nile bodies are dropping like flies. Everyone is a suspect. Everybody could have done it. And yet nobody could have done it. Only Hercule Poirot can figure this ...

Average Rating:	Mighty Aphrodite [1996] starring: Woody Allen, Mira Sorvino, F. Murray Abraham, Helena Bonham Carter, Donald Symington directed by: Woody Allen June 15, 2006		List Price: Â£14.99 Vegetarian Books Price: Â£3.98 You Save: £11.01 (73%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: Â£2.99
Mighty Aphrodite is the film in which Woody Allen gets the balance right between writing a script that is serious literature and mixing the serious literature with a modern day low-brow bestseller.He uses the idea of the chorus from ancient greek literature as the voice of his conscience and makes a most unlikely series of events seem plausible and highly entertaining,and manages to make something that could have turned out as seeming very sordid,touching and memorable.He was helped in no small part by Mira Sorvino's brilliant (oscar winning) feat of acting in which she played the prostitute Linda as somebody who was like a cartoon character but who was still recognisable as a human being that the viewer would think could exist in real life.There are plenty of subtle and amusing twists and ...
