Customer Reviews

I can not add much to what other reviewers have already said, if you like Jerry Lewis, you will love this film. It has many parts that make you laugh out loud when I think that would be unforgettable even stupid. Of course, not everything is great. But a scene that comes to mind is the pilot pulled the speeder obese. Another knee slapper: "Hey, can I push?" "Sure!" says the man, Jerry knockng on his head. "No, I mean my car." "Oh, OK!" how are you pushing Jerry hoursdriverless car down the hill. Of course it is better to watch.

As a reason for a DVD, who knows. Amazon had a rental download, but it's over. [...], If you search you can find a torrent, but it is an old VHS recording that sees all his 25 years with monitoring and reporting the horizontal lines at the top of the screen, but it is the only copy I have seen out there (not spending $ 85-100 for a used Band!

The Return of Martin Guerre [VHS]

The Return of Martin Guerre [VHS] Overview

While many ugly Americans best remember Gerard Depardieu from late-'80s Hollywood fluff (and the less said about Green Card the better), his art-house reputation as a legitimate, conscientious actor was more than mere hype. The solid Return of Martin Guerre (Le Retour de Martin Guerre) stands as Depardieu's personal high-water mark: here, he was handed a well-written, nuanced role--one inviting a balanced display of intelligence, charismatic cool, and pure passion--and he makes the most of it. The narrative, set in medieval France during the Hundred Years' War, follows the alleged homecoming of a soldier after many years of absence. His wife (a structurally difficult role to portray with any skill, but played gamely here by the fetching Nathalie Baye) finds him such an improvement--both in the sack and otherwise--from the husband who left for the front that she ignores the villagers' suspicions that he is an impostor. The costumes and scenery are quite a bit better, and more historically responsible, than what we've all come to expect from period drama, and the logical flaws and obvious questions begged by the plot mechanics are smoothed out by director Daniel Vigne's steady hand with story art and cinematic pacing. The film was remade in English, and updated to the Reconstruction, in 1993 as Sommersby, starring Richard Gere and Jodie Foster. See this original instead. --Miles Bethany

Natalie Davis, together with the director Daniel Vigne on his film. story of Davis' offers its audience a rare glimpse into the world of peasant life in sixteenth century in France. Historically, there are only a few times, where daily life for the comment lower social history or literature. Students of the humanities to examine only a few pounds a primary source. The Domesday Book is a collection of census records of the eleventh century England. The Canterbury Taleshave a fourteenth century collection of stories describing the lives of religious pilgrims in England, written by Geoffrey Chaucer. The Decameron is a collection of stories of the fourteenth century, written this time in Italy, by Giovanni Boccaccio.

story of Davis' focuses on Bertrand de Rols and her place in the sixteenth century, the society, especially as a woman. Bertrand was married to Martin Guerre, a young peasant of Basque heritage was. Both Bertrand and Martin were in theirA teenager at a time when marriage customs for peasants was changing in Europe. For several years, they have to play two very young children bother her marriage. Davis suggested that perhaps this was done was as happy as Bertrande enjoy their adolescence and can be free from the fatigue of motherhood and all the responsibilities that went with it. This is explained by the fact that their marriage to be evident at the insistence of parents for refusing anything. A few years passBertrande first conceived and bore a son - her first foray into adulthood. Davis explains how Bertrande, like other farmers, was once more aware of male-dominated world in which they lived. This is evident by the particle "de" in their name, a custom in the area where he lived for the representation of farmers in social and legal connection female had men in their families. It 'been under her father, her husband and finally her widowed mother and his unclestepfather turned. Frances and Joseph Geis illuminate in detail the customs of marriage and family at this time. During the Middle Ages, which made most farmers do not have formal marriage vows in church. Instead, they swore to each other as husband and wife living common law. Formality was not necessary, because farmers are not owned, worked the lands of the nobility as tenant farmers. Civil change costumes in the sixteenth century by farmers cancountry, which in turn leads to parents, consisting of more control over marriage choices of their children.

In 1548, Martin runs away from his village Artigat, France, to join the army so that his twenty-two years Bertrande woman and a young son. Its task significantly reduced the social position Bertrande in the village. It is no longer a woman in every respect, yet she is a widow who had the rights. Without a body to prove Martin is dead, can not be separated from him, and so,you are stuck with their situation. He moved back with her mother. Furthermore, it is ridiculous by their peers in every corner. Davis believes that to add up all these circumstances Bertrande always someone unhappy. After eight years living in quiet desperation, it's no wonder that they found to play their last hopes and dreams of a better life if the tricks Arnaud du "Tilen Pansette nickname," appears in the village in 1548, under the pretext of Martin Guerre. OfIt would have been prepared for Bertrande want to believe that her husband came to her that has enabled a better social position in the country would again. It also meant that Bertrande would be able to have inherited their home, with her husband, the land of his father recently died. Davis speculated correctly that even if Bertrande Pansette quickly that is not her husband is still in him a congenial companion and falls in love with him. They also have aDaughter together. Davis believes it is very plausible that Bertrand would become a willing collaborator in order to protect their newfound freedom and social status. couple's marital bliss unravels Pansette days with his uncle, Pierre Guerre, about his desire to sell part of the surface leads. This leads to Pierre became suspicious about the identity of his nephew because ancestral custom never to sell an old Basque country, is causing him to sue the Pansette as a fraud in a court.The feud divides the village, and finally to a break between points and Pansette Bertrand. Bertrand had initially testified that the original was Pansette Martin. However, before the start of a subsequent court hearing she caves to pressure from his widowed mother who married Pierre, to change his testimony. Fearing he could lose his reputation and social status of family and village, changing his testimony and Pansette accused of being an impostor.

Davisfalls heavy criticism from Robert Finlay assumptions about who perpetrated Bertrand on emotions, motivations, does, and their complicity in deception by Pansette. In Finlay's, article The redesign of Martin Guerre, Davis accused in the criminal too Cora left. "This Bertrande de Rols seems to be much more a product of invention of historical reconstruction." Davis, responding to Finlay's criticism of his methods of research, moredefended as reasonable in their articles on the blades. It describes his meticulous research of legal documents, social roles and cultural customs of the sixteenth century in France. "For Davis ... farmers, people with sexual impulses and economic and cultural traditions and resources which have escaped the eyes of most orthodox historians are."

The social historian Natalie Davis was in his efforts, the local archives, judicial tireless combDocuments and interviews in the current villagers Artigat to record the folklore of the "famous case" from their village. Davis was to understand these micro-history of the sixteenth century rural life in France, a light and simple and compelling narrative films. What makes the story so appealing to modern audiences and readers, is how relevant the story and the people who are up to now. This story is a story of people, but every dayas royalties and general history of normal subjects. History is full of riddles and phrases. It also examines the psychological areas of passion and deceit, while questioning personality formation and the self. In all these sub-plots tie together, Davis presents to the public now has the opportunity to examine and compare their own identities and questions of self-regulation.

I read the book and saw the movie for a class degree in humanities. Recommended Readingfor all lovers of history and psychology.

Freaks [VHS]

Freaks [VHS] Overview

Tod Browning, who directed Bela Lugosi in the original Dracula, stepped into even eerier territory with this 1932 story of betrayal and retribution in the circus. Evil trapeze artist Olga Baclanova seduces and marries a midget in the circus sideshow, hoping to inherit his wealth. But in doing so, she has crossed the wrong folks: the tightly knit group of nature's aberrations, who stick together like family--and who set out to avenge their little pal. Browning brought in some of the most famous sideshow attractions of the era, include Siamese twins Daisy and Violet Hilton and Johnny Eck the Legless Boy, as well as Zip and Pip, microcephalics whose appearance in this film inspired cartoonist Bill Griffith to create his comic strip, "Zippy the Pinhead." So disturbing that it was banned for 30 years in Great Britain. --Marshall Fine

Customer Reviews

Prohibited in most countries for more than three decades, this is one of the most bizarre and fascinating films Hollywood has ever produced. In practice, a soap opera set in the side of the road-show is a look into the lives of a group of artists in a traveling circus Sideshow. At the beginning of the film we meet Cleopatra (Baclanova), meaning beautiful, but, trapeze artists, who seduces and marries the owner of the circus midget Hans (Earles) for his money. At the wedding ceremony, welcomed the company closely Freaksin the family as "one of us, one of us." Cleopatra is very disturbed by this thought and tells them that they are never grotesque, even stronger than his secret lover, Hercules, howling with laughter. He humiliates her husband kissing openly Hercules. Once discovered that he had tried to poison Hans, is the group with the idea of revenge from the strong man beautiful trapeze artist and her lover. Tod Browning made a film truly bizarre and unique. Browning, had directedthe classic Dracula 1931 was a former actor and circus artist so Browning's experience with the circus, his interest for fans, an MGM production has been moved. If Dracula is his most famous work, this is his masterpiece. The casting in Freaks is also unusual, since all the "actors" are real and play basically. The turning point of history, marriage is his. Each is a good time, with the exception of Frieda, who was theCleo evil and manipulative behavior from the beginning and the chicken man named Koo Koo is dancing on the table. Woman without arms half-man/half-woman, etc. have this opportunity. However, if the drink and Cleo throws raging with his tirade, you can not help but feel disgust and sadness at the "Freaks". It's a memorable scene ... one of many in this excellent film. I recommend this cult classic.

Sullivan's Travels [VHS]

Sullivan's Travels [VHS] Overview

Writer-director Preston Sturges's third feature, 1941's Sullivan's Travels, remains the antic auteur's most ambitious screen effort. Having added the producer's stripe to his duties, Sturges combines breezy romantic comedy, arch Hollywood satire, and social essay into a single, screwball story line.

The titular pilgrim is John L. Sullivan (Joel McCrea), an Ivy League grad who's enjoyed a meteoric rise as the director behind escapist movies like Ants in Your Pants of 1938, but is now determined to raise his sights toward more exalted, serious-minded cinematic art. His proposed breakthrough, portentously titled O Brother, Where Art Thou?, elicits a studio response closer to "Oh, brother," given the director's utter lack of first-hand experience on the wrong side of the tracks.

Instead of capitulating, Sullivan sets off disguised as a tramp, ready to meet life's crueler lessons face-to-face--albeit followed at a discreet distance by a motor home filled with studio handlers and reporters. His ludicrous odyssey may give the boy director no real insight, but it gives Sturges the chance to inject some reliably fine gags and a romantic subplot featuring the luminous Veronica Lake. It's at this juncture that Sturges the writer's darker objective throws a jolting shift in tone. Suffice it to say that just when a comic, upbeat denouement seems imminent, Sullivan travels instead from the sunlit California of the comedy's early reels toward a darker, relentlessly downbeat world influenced more by the social realism of the movies the hero desperately wants to make. By the final reel, Sturges has flirted with real tragedy, turning his conclusion into a meditation on his own seemingly carefree, dizzily comic art. --Sam Sutherland

Customer Reviews

In 1941, producer / writer / director Preston Sturges ("The Lady Eve," "Yours infidel," "The Great McGinty"), his masterpiece, "Sullivan's Travels", created by the actor Joel McCrea ("Foreign Correspondent "" Buffalo Bill "," The Virginian ") and actress Veronica Lake (" I Married a Witch, "" This Gun for Hire, "" Hold that blonde ").

The film was for the conservation of U.S. National Film Registry by the Library of Congress selected in 1990 as "culturally, historically oraesthetically significant "and in 2007 was ranked # 61 in the American Film Institute's" greatest movie of all time. "

The film revolves around director John L. Sullivan (Joel McCrea played on). After being its share of profitable movies, comedies that were not presented to him as a serious director, Sullivan has decided to change things and jump a film entitled "O Brother, Where are you wanted?". Of course, the study of Mr. Lebrand boss (played by Robert Warwick)will play, but Sullivan does not focus.

Sullivan comes up with an idea. Why not learn first-hand how a homeless person (knowledge in 1940, when the word "tramp") with a victory indeed for the research he needs for his film seriously, which represents the suffering of mankind .

Of course, the study is not so enthusiastic about their director always profitable in this type of difficulty, followed an entourage Sullivan, whodressed like a hobo hitchhiking. The problem is that the environment a bit 'too close and nearby. Thus, Sullivan tells them that he needs his space and distance from them in this research can and will meet in Las Vegas.

Sullivan finally breaks free and begins to work as a helping hand for a woman to keep the house locked, but Sullivan escapes and hitched his way out of the area receives a ride from a trucker tried. If hewakes up he discovers that he has taken over Hollywood. Angry and hungry, you go to a diner, but with little money, failed actress (played by Veronica Lake), buys him breakfast.

Sullivan discovers that the girl was alone with the additional work and did so well in Hollywood. So, wants to help. He claims he knows a successful filmmaker named Sullivan and borrows his car and told him to stay home from the Director for several weeks, and would flygo home. But to be blown up like the two by the police, Sullivan is forced to show it is not homeless or stranded director, has a very successful director to dress like a tramp looking for his next film.

Sulllivan upset by lying to her, she tells him that if he goes, like a homeless person in order to disguise the role of research, you join them. It begins to experience Sullivan's Travels, along with the girl, as it is for homeless people inAmerica in these difficult times.

Most of the dust and scratches show, while the projector is part of Disneyanimated film, but a very good transfer from Criterion.

Of course, this is a 2001 DVD release, I can imagine that if this movie on Blu-ray will come out, hopefully in the near future we will see the final version of the film. There is also a 2006 DVD release by Universal Pictures, who was not in a Preston Sturges DVD box set that I have the opportunity to observe and compare public with this criterion.

The audio of the film is presented in mono.According to the criterion of transmission of HD was created an optical soundtrack. But more or less, "Sullivan's Travel" offers a very good picture quality and sound on this DVD collection policy, especially as a film 70 years.

I must admit that when I first saw "Sullivan's Travels," I was a bit 'surprised. I was expecting a screwball comedy, and the film was initially very thorough comedy, until you see the last half hour and get serious as the film and then it transitions to a new film comedy again.

But there are scenes you see me happy, fulfilled. First, theJoeal chemistry between McCrea and Veronica Lake was great. To see how Sturges no problem to avoid censorship, but make sure it was compatible with the Hays Code was pretty interesting. Where the presentation of a couple sleeping together was usually not possible (ie, the two beds were separated during the golden age), but then around the code by the two sleep together in the scenes without the ' use of a bedroom. But to see these two together on screen andhave so much fun making this film very funny. Veronica Lake looks absolutely breathtaking in this film.

Another scene I liked was absolute, as was the Southern Black Church and its parishioners. Usually with blacks stereotyped roles in which their characters is funny, we see the same people in black and white film together and enjoy both runs along the slide. In fact, the NAACP secretary Walter White also wrote a letter to Sturgescongratulated him on creating a film of Blacks and has a decent treatment. I was quite a scene in motion.

Although the film has received rave reviews within the 70 + years after films in cinemas, many critics are discovering the importance and significance, as this movie and this movie ranks up there among other films Sturges

One thing is about making films, but I also give credit, the collection criterion for inclusion of the documentary"Rise and Fall of an American Dreamer," which received a high-definition transfer for this DVD version. I had no idea what turmoil facing Sturges after 1940. For a man, the films are considered high, it is unfortunate that the system before Hollywood really turned their backs on him and he always writes literally blackballed, directed and produced a film in 1950. Kenneth Bowser did a remarkable job with the career of Preston Sturges and interviewspeople close to him.

Also on the Criterion Collection DVD includes a "Travels Sullivan" is a conversation, the show because Howard Hughes, Preston Sturges Sandy possible during their short period of time fired in common and other materials that have not seen or heard from the public until to release this DVD.

Overall, "Sullivan's Travels" is an American classic, and Preston Sturges at his best. But the Criterion Collection DVD version of "Sullivan's Travels" alsocelebrates the life of the director, but also shows us that, even for great success, if their luck has run out, things are not as great as once hoped. Preston Sturges fans will definitely enjoy this DVD. Highly recommended!

Islam - Empire Of Faith [VHS]

Islam - Empire Of Faith [VHS] Overview

Between the fall of Rome and the European voyages of discovery, few events were more significant than the rise of Islam. Within a few centuries, the Islamic empires blossomed, projecting their power from Africa to the East Indies, and from Spain to India. Inspired by the words of the Prophet Muhammed, and led by caliphs and sultans, this political and religious expansion remains unequaled in speed, geographic size and endurance.

Islam: Empire of Faith is narrated by Academy Award®-winning actor Ben Kingsley. The three-hour program tells the spectacular story of the great sweep of Islamic power and faith during its first 1,000 years ‹ from the birth of the Prophet Muhammed to the peak of the Ottoman Empire under the reign of Suleyman the Magnificent. Historical re-enactments and a remarkable exposition of Islamic art, artifacts and architecture are combined with interviews of scholars from around the world to recount the rise and importance of early Islamic civilization. Increasingly, scholars and historians are recognizing the profound impact that Islamic civilization has had on Western culture and the course of world history.

Islam - Empire Of Faith [VHS] Specifications

Islam: Empire of Faith is the epic PBS documentary that charts the history of Islam from its beginnings in Mecca and Medina in the seventh century to the glory of the Ottoman Empire 1,000 years later.

The demonization of Islam by the West has a long history, stretching back to the First Crusade at the end of the 11th century. This documentary redresses the balance by showing the riches of Islamic culture and the vital role played by Islam in preserving and building upon ancient wisdom from East and West at a time when most of Europe was stumbling through the Dark Ages. Muslim physicians, mathematicians, and astronomers stretched the boundaries of human knowledge, and Muslim architects created some of the most beautiful buildings in the world.

Islam also offers fascinating insights into key personalities, from Muhammad himself--a simple merchant whose vision of a single deity forged warring tribes into a nation--to great conquerors such as Mehmed and Suleyman, who presided over an empire that stretched from Spain to India. The faith itself is clearly explained, and interviews with historians and religious scholars bring home both its simplicity and the way that it survived huge cultural changes (like the Mongol invasions of the 13th century) to emerge stronger than ever. Islam has often been misunderstood in the West, but this splendid documentary helps to set the record straight. --Simon Leake

The Greatest Show on Earth [VHS]

The Greatest Show on Earth [VHS] Overview

The Greatest Show on Earth is a heaping helping of flapdoodle served up by one of Hollywood's canniest entertainers: producer-director Cecil B. DeMille. This overripe melodrama purports to be life inside the Ringling Brothers Circus; maybe it's not, but the circus ought to be like this. The actors wrestling with the purple dialogue are: early-career Charlton Heston, as the tough-as-nails circus manager; Cornel Wilde and Betty Hutton as trapeze artistes; and Gloria Grahame (who won an Oscar), dangling from elephants. Best of all, James Stewart plays a clown who--for mysterious reasons--never removes his makeup. (Stewart took the supporting role simply because he'd always wanted to play a clown.) This is a fried-baloney sandwich of a movie: it ain't sophisticated, and probably isn't good for you, but once you start you can't stop. It was the box-office champ of 1952, and it shocked everybody by winning the best picture Oscar. --Robert Horton

Customer Reviews

It is often said that the only reason, Cecil B. De Mille is the greatest show on earth 1952 Oscar Best Picture Academy voters were hesitant, High Noon, which was recently by the HUAC-blacklisted Carl Foreman won click script.


If you're a circus parades and events in the marquee, "Greatest Show" is to undertake long power sections can be tedious. These moments also interrupt the main plot of the trapeze artist Betty Hutton, the shreds of emotionallybetween the pipe-smoking suede wrapped Circus owner Charlton Heston and Cornel Wilde as a Hungarian accent aeralist ego-driven, the Great Sebastian. When does not change his amorous advances, Hutton actively compete against Wilde for the coveted Ring Center.

Looking for a bit 'matronly, Dorothy Lamour is here, like Gloria Grahame. Both are the most productive of Sebastian, a former lover.

For children of all ages, there are animals and clowns, pomp and pageantry. Emmett Kelly sad face in this formulation, since many of the old days Barnum & Bailey are people. Finally we have the stories of adult love and jealousy.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes [VHS]

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes [VHS] Overview

Movies with "wacky" titles are almost never any good, and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! was intentionally made to be an instant golden turkey. Despite that, and the grade-Z production values, this is a regularly funny film. You need to be a fan of the kind of low-budget horror movie it's spoofing, and you need to be very forgiving of the technical ineptness and frequent clunkers, but it works. The story? Well, tomatoes attack, basically. Jack Riley and the San Diego Chicken are in it, and that genuinely alarming helicopter crash you see in an early scene was a real accident. Seen now, the whole ratty affair brings back agreeable memories of the circa-1978 college-movie/midnight-cinema era, when seeing this film was virtually unavoidable. The sequel, Return of the Killer Tomatoes! (with a young George Clooney), is actually an even funnier film. Director John De Bello would continue to squeeze the Tomatoes franchise for years to come. --Robert Horton

Customer Reviews

It 'been fun. Even better than I expected. When the tomatoes began to throw a "man" I wanted to throw a few myself. It 'been a bit' slow and sometimes super fakey all over the place ... but this is what I was looking for. Not as moving as the blob .... but come back only once .... I can do it again from my friends who had never heard of this movie ... So .. roll on kids .. See you soon, I'm sure!
