| Many think that Sean Connery was the first actor to impersonate the role of the sophisticated British agent; when in fact he wasn't. Sean was the first actor to play bond in a "theatrical" movie. But in 1954, 8 years before Dr. No hit the screens, 007 was introduced for the first time on Television broadcast.
The movie was called Casino Royale, based on the first novel by Ian Fleming. The movie was adapted from this novel for a CBS broadcast, with the hopes of adapting more of Ian Fleming's ... Read More: |

| I saw this in a theater way back in the 50's and liked it then. This new DVD release looks even better than that old "big" screen movie version. The VHS version satisfied for a while, but the DVD is superior, just as one would expect it to be. The final scene is truly remarkable considering it was done long before computer generated imaging. Must be seen to be believed. If you're a kid, or have one, it's a must for your collection! |

| Domingo sings beautifully, Stratas less so but looks and acts the part. The biggest problem is there are so many cuts and shortened arias that you could almost call this "extended highlights". And Zeferelli over-produces, particularly with camera work. If you want a movie version get Anna Moffo's of over 30 years ago. Now there was a Violetta! |

| 6.Everybody's Fine starring: Marcello Mastroianni, Michèle Morgan, Valeria Cavalli, Marino Cenna, Norma Martelli directed by: Giuseppe Tornatore June 22, 1994 |

|
| It seems that each of Tornatore's movies (such as "Cinema Pradiso", or "The Legend of 1900") is a journey. Here too, we are offered a journey - an ageing Sicilian father visiting his grown-up children in the North. They all pretend that they are getting along well in their lives, though, the turth is much different and painly obvious.
The experience of the father is not single dimensional - Mastorianni delivers a rich character, who seeks to reconcile his hopes, his desire, yet inability to help. This movie is more than just an inability ... Read More: |

| Weapons of the Spirit is the story of a small French town that saved at least 3000 Jews during the Second World War. Their history as a Heugenot (Protestant) community that had endured centuries of persecution and their reverence for the people of the Old Testament (the Jews) combined with their strong sense of justice made them just naturally protect the most vulnerable at great risk to themselves. The video asks relevant questions for today. Who will stand up for the most vulnerable today? What makes one group put themselves on the line for those that do not ... Read More: |

| I've been watching & listening to The Eagles for more years than I'll mention. This is a great album! I've watched it many times, and just bought a copy for my son in Austin, who's really into music. He'll love it! |

| This excellent movie is beautifully photographed, deeply affecting, intricate but clear, and it illustrates the monstrous abuse a totalitarian government perpetrates upon its citizens and their heroic battles against it. I highly recommend it. |

|
| The struggle between the inteligencia and the average people in a rapidly-changing society is one of many themes of this movie. If "Moscow Doesn't Believe in Tears" shows how life was during the years of stagnation (70s), this movie shows the life right after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Nicely set in St. Petersburg in the early 90s, when the Soviet Union has just collapsed, it depicts how life really was during those first few hard years - the transition from socialism to capitalism. When the people in a communal apartment find a window into Paris, the ... Read More: |
