VHS : The Rescuers Down Under (Disney) [1991]

The Rescuers Down Under (Disney) [1991]


starring: Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor, John Candy, Tristan Rogers, Adam Ryen
directed by: Hendel Butoy, Mike Gabriel
May 12, 1997


This sequel to the rescuers was something special to disney, as this is the first sequal of feature animation to also become a feature. This is currently the only sequel to date to become a feature; this shows disney had great expectations and faith in this film.

This film has a similar story style to the original film, where a kid gets captured and its up to the rescue aid society to come to the rescue. The character cast in this film is amazing, and the animators do an incredible job at portraying emotion and expression through them.

This film also, as many may not know, include disney first 3d visual effects in 2d animation. There is a flying sequence at the start which is actually 3D which at the time of release ... Read More:

VHS : The Hustler [1961]

The Hustler [1961]


starring: Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason, Piper Laurie, George C. Scott, Myron McCormick
directed by: Robert Rossen
September 27, 1990


American films now are routinely full of violence and swearing (though curiously never all that much sex) but are at heart almost invariably juvenile, soft-headed and sentimental. I was shocked by this film - which contains one "Bastard!" and some off-screen violence portrayed by means of a scream - because of the brutal adult honesty of the dialogue and the tough bleak view of human existence. Paul Newman is mesmerising, a great actor and a true star; the histrionics of Damon, Di Caprio, Pitt etc laughable by comparison. George C Scott is maybe even a shade better. The film lets the viewer inhabit a world he wouldn't otherwise know: the seedy smoke-filled pool rooms, gambling tables, bars of a nameless American city. It's not the glossy - and now so ...

VHS : Dr. Strangelove [1963]

Dr. Strangelove [1963]


starring: Peter Sellers, George C. Scott, Sterling Hayden, Keenan Wynn, Slim Pickens
directed by: Stanley Kubrick
July 01, 2002


"In the days after it first opened in early 1964, Stanley Kubrick's "Dr. Strangelove" took on the enchanted aura of a film that had gotten away with something. Johnson was in the White House, the Republicans were grooming Goldwater, both sides took the Cold War with grim solemnity, and the world was learning to be comfortable with the term "nuclear deterrent," which meant that if you blow me up, I'm gonna blow you up, and then we'll all be dead. "Better dead than Red," some said. Others said the opposite. The choice was not appealing. The Bomb overshadowed global politics. It was a kind of ultimate hole card in a game where the stakes were life on earth." Roger Ebert

I purchased the 40th Anniversary CD and this is my third or forth viewing, but "Dr. ... Read More:

The Hanging Tree [1959]


starring: Gary Cooper, Maria Schell, Karl Malden, George C. Scott, Karl Swenson
directed by: Karl Malden, Delmer Daves
April 27, 1998


OK western - if somewhat unusual - about Gary Cooper playing the part of a doctor arriving at a goldminer's camp. He's past makes it impossible for him to have close human relationships. Director is Delmer Daves and the movie has fine part for Maria Schell, playing a Swiss woman, lost in the west. Not bad.

VHS : The Exorcist 3 [1990]

The Exorcist 3 [1990]


starring: William Peter Blatty|George C. Scott|Ed Flanders|Jason Miller
May 03, 1999


This film is far better than you might expect. It seems a shame that the film didn't share the title of the book on which it was based, 'Legion'; the present title brings to mind the countless abysmal horror sequels swamping the genre, an association this movie does not deserve.
'Exorcist III' is written and directed by William Peter Blatty, writer of the original film and of the fantastic yet sadly underrated cult classic 'The Ninth Configuration'. Unlike 'Exorcist II' (which was not penned by Blatty), the plot does not revolve around Regan, the little girl possessed in the first film. Instead, it involves the investigations of Lt. Kinderman (played by Lee J. Cobb in the first film, here played by George C. Scott). He is looking into a series of grisly, ritualistic murders ... Read More:

VHS : The Last Days Of Patton [1986]

The Last Days Of Patton [1986]


starring: George C. Scott, Richard Dysart, Murray Hamilton, Ed Lauter, Kathryn Leigh Scott
directed by: Delbert Mann
September 27, 1990


Be careful re. this one as picture quality is no where near as good as what we have come to expect from dvds ie. not really crisp and sharp, with annoyingly, distorted wording on the final credits: certainly, not what one might expect from the Hollywood Movie makers!
As far as the film is concerned, it is a bit of an anti-climax after the film 'Patton' itself. Also, George Scott seems a little older and not so much as strong willed and assertive as he was in the first film.

Nevertheless, it is fair to say that this film is extremely cheap even when mailed from the USA, so you can hardly complain.
