VHS : Mr Deeds Goes to Town [1936]

Mr Deeds Goes to Town [1936]


starring: Gary Cooper, Jean Arthur, George Bancroft, Lionel Stander, Douglass Dumbrille
directed by: Frank Capra
April 07, 2003


It was in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town that Frank Capra perfected the blend of comedy and social commentary that would become his trademark. The screwball comedy was graceful rather than frantic and the social elements of Robert Riskin's fine screenplay are handled in an even-handed manner that earned Capra the second of his three Acadamy Awards for Best Director. Both Gary Cooper as the tuba playing no nonsense Longfellow Deeds and Jean Arthur as the reporter who exploits him until she falls for his goodness are wonderful in this true Capra classic.

Longfellow Deeds (Cooper) lives in the small town of Mandrake Falls where he makes a living writing greeting card poems and spends his free time playing the tuba. He is less than enthused ... Read More:

VHS : Once Upon A Time In The West [1969]

Once Upon A Time In The West [1969]


starring: Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Claudia Cardinale, Jason Robards, Gabriele Ferzetti
directed by: Sergio Leone
January 01, 1996


Sergio Leone is unique in his field, and particularly in the western genre. He was in his fourth year of spaghetti western, let's say in full swing, in this film. You know it is Sergio Leone by several elements that do not tell a lie. The music always has the same texture, the same taste, the same sonorities, with the eternal harmonica. Then the landscape, the sunshine, the light, the vegetation and of course practically no fauna, and in this one, not even a snake. Hardly a few horses, a couple of partridges, or whatever, and a pair of chickens. Nothing to brag about. Sergio Leone is concentrating anyway on the human animal and there the menagerie is by far diverse and grotesque enough. Then the economy of the dialogue is also typical because ... Read More:

VHS : Cul-De-Sac [1966]

Cul-De-Sac [1966]


starring: Donald Pleasence, Françoise Dorléac, Lionel Stander, Jack MacGowran, Iain Quarrier
directed by: Roman Polanski
October 01, 1999


It has been 30 years since I first saw this film, yet it still rates as one of my all time favourites. Forget about special effects and daredevil stunts-you won't see either of those in Cul-De-Sac. It's a strange film which highlights the devastating effect that unexpected events can have on human relationships. At first glance it's a black comedy, but running throughout the film are dark menacing undercurrents which maintain the attention of the audience. All of the leading acters are good, but Donald Pleasance, as the bumbling, insecure host to his unwelcome guests is outstanding. In my opinion his best performance ever. Polanski's quirky direction has never been bettered, and the exterior photography is spectacular. Brilliant.

VHS : The Cassandra Crossing [1977]

The Cassandra Crossing [1977]


starring: Sophia Loren, Richard Harris, Martin Sheen, O.J. Simpson, Lionel Stander
directed by: George P. Cosmatos
February 28, 2000


In 1976, two rail-orientated films were released : "Silver Streak", directed by Arthur Hiller, and the more superior disaster-epic, "The Cassandra Crossing", directed by George Pan Cosmatos.

The Cassandra Crossing centres around the chain of events of two terrorists mounting a raid on The International Health Organisation in Geneva, and results in both becoming infected with the plague, and one of them escaping on the Euro-Continental Express carrying this deadly epidemic.

Enter Richard Harris as Dr Johnathan Chamberlain, Ingrid Thulin, as Dr Stradler, and Burt Lancaster as the unpleasant Colonel Steven MacKenzie as the main players as each one of them has a different method of containing the disease.

Lee Strasberg's, Mr Kaplan ... Read More:

VHS : New York.New York [1977]

New York.New York [1977]


starring: Martin Scorsese|Liza Minnelli|Robert De Niro|Lionel Stander
June 17, 1996


Hello,
The first time I saw this movie was when i was 14. I was completely fascinated with everything in it - "The laughter, the tears, the Jazz, the Blues; everything that makes New York, New York".
At the age of 14 i was still training to become a classical pianist, so there was already the musical side of me undergoing a development. However, the movie (the memories of the movie and the strong impression of it) stayed with me forever.
Look, Martin Scorsese loves his city; New York is not just another city for him; he loves it! This movie encompasses all the selected good stuff from the jazz scene that has created the image of New York. Quite skilfully a parallel is drawn between big bands and individuals who would play somewhere in dark and smoky clubs, ... Read More:
