VHS : Picnic [1956]

Picnic [1956]


starring: William Holden, Kim Novak, Betty Field, Susan Strasberg, Cliff Robertson
directed by: Joshua Logan
August 30, 1994


Before the Labor Day a hansome stranger swings into a small town of Kansas...and he awakes passions that nobody could imagine that were there.
William Holden plays Hal Carter, an irresponsible guy,who falls for the girl of his best friend, Kim Novak as Madge Owens. Unwillingly he also awakes passions not only to her, but also to her little sister, and to a school teacher at her 40's played excellent by Rosalind Russell.
The love scene between Holden and Novak are sensational, and the dance sequence is one of poetry.
This film is based on the classic play of William Inge and is wonderfully directed by the theatre director Joshua Logan. Although sometimes you may find William Holden a little older than he should have been for this ... Read More:

VHS : Peyton Place [1957]

Peyton Place [1957]


starring: Lana Turner, Lee Philips, Lloyd Nolan, Arthur Kennedy, Russ Tamblyn
directed by: Mark Robson
February 07, 1991


Fantastic, lush and romantic version of the well known novel. New England never looked more ravishing. This is a great print and a high quality transfer. They certainly don't make movies like this any more. Ideal for a wet Sunday afternoon. It's a shame that the Region 2 release has none of the splendid extras you have on this version.

VHS : Butterfield 8 [1960]

Butterfield 8 [1960]


starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Laurence Harvey, Eddie Fisher, Dina Merrill, Mildred Dunnock
directed by: Daniel Mann
September 04, 2000


BUTTERFIELD 8 is a screen adaptation of John O'Hara's earlier novel made to look modern for a 1960's audience. Elizabeth Taylor plays a promiscuous girl who wants to settle down with a respectable Laurence Harvey. Unfortunately Harvey is married to a wealthy woman (Dina Merrill). Taylor's friend Eddie Fisher watches the inevitable tragedy slowly unfold. The rest of the cast includes Mildred Dunnock, Betty Field and Susan Oliver. The movie drags in spots and many of the characters lack depth.

Elizabeth Taylor received an unexpected Academy Award for her role and the film was also nominated for Best Color Cinematography. The main competition for Oscars in 1960 came from ELMER GANTRY and THE APARTMENT.

Birdman Of Alcatraz [1962]


starring: Burt Lancaster, Karl Malden, Thelma Ritter, Neville Brand, Betty Field
directed by: John Frankenheimer

A brilliant performance from a Hollywood great, and a timless piece that stands the test of time when it comes to a Saturday night of rubbish TV.

VHS : Coogan's Bluff [1968]

Coogan's Bluff [1968]


starring: Clint Eastwood, Lee J. Cobb, Susan Clark, Tisha Sterling, Don Stroud
directed by: Don Siegel
June 19, 2000


Not only does this film look forward to clint and Don's own dirty Harry films but bearing in mind this was 1968 the films influence on early 70's cinema is clear. The examples that spring to mind would be the hippie club scene being used in midnight cowboy a year later with all the same ambience (its uses of video projection, lighting). Also the overhead chase shots were ripped off by william friedkin for the french connection in 71, not to mention the poolhall scene bearing a striking resemblance to matin scorscese's mean streets in 73. I could go on but not wanting to bore you just keep in mind the films date when you watch it and how similar it is to so much that followed. Just because critics never mention this it doesnt mean its not true.
