Action Filled Film
Enjoyed this Rambo type of film with Tommy Lee Jones giving an outstanding performance as ( L . T . Bonham ) who was a military man in special services dealing with how to kill a person one , two , three . LT was retired in the mountains of Oregon and was contacted to track down a man who had killed two hunters in the woods and butchered them like you would a deer . LT investigates the woods all by himself where the hunters were killed and tracks down a guy named Aaron Hallam , ( Benicio Del Toro ) who he taught in military school how to kill and was his best student . Aaron and LT do not shake hands but immediately start to kill each other and beat each other up with all kinds of cuts and bruises . This struggle between these two guys goes on and on in this picture on bridges , water falls , rapids and even a train . There is a female in this picture who tries to assist LT by the name of Abbey Durrell , ( Connie Nielsen ) who is skinny as a rail , but there is no romance and LT does invite her to visit him in his mountain cabin when things calm down . There is plenty of blood and gore and plenty of action to keep you glued to your screen . Enjoy .

Sophia Loren was so Beautiful
Gregory Peck , ( Professor David Pollack ) , " Old Gringo " , plays a professor who is kidnapped for a brief period and is told to reveal the secrets of an Arabic writing which is his specialty . He is shot at , hit on the head and thrown out of a truck and meets up with Sophia Loren , ( Yasmin Azir ) , " The Black Orchid " , who runs into him all the time and decides to help him escape from his captives . However , Yasmin tells so many lies that David does not believe her and begins to think she is working against him . There is plenty of comedy , drama , romance and action . This is not exactly an easy film to just sit back and relax , it keeps you wondering just what is really Going ON

Stiller & Aniston Great Together
Enjoyed this very funny film with Ben Stiller playing ( Reuben Feffer ) as an Insurance Executive who is going through a fantastic wedding to Debra Messing , ( Lisa Kramer ) and Reuben does everything in the world for Lisa and they go on their honeymoon and decide to go scuba diving and it is from this point in the picture all hell breaks loose .

Alec Baldwin , ( Stan Indursky ) , plays the role of Reuben's boss and tries to keep Reuben on his toes in order to insure one of their clients who is a very high risk person to insure . There are some very warm and sexy scenes between Lisa Kramer and Polly and lots of laughs . Enjoy

A Real Gem of a Film
This is a Gene Kelly film which I had never viewed and only associated Kelly as a song and dance actor in many musicals . Kelly plays the role as Capt . Jeff Eliot who visits the Lehrt family in Germany who protected him and his plane during WW II . However , he finds out that the family was killed and the only member in the family remaining was Wilhelmina Lehrt , ( Pier Angeli ) . Jeff Eliot finds Willie working in a nightclub and they seem to fall in love with each other , until Jeff finds out some very dark secrets Wilhelmina had been keeping from him and they have a fight between the two of them . Claus Clausen , ( Heisemann ) plays the role of a Nazi Commander during the Neo-Nazism Post WW II and has complete control over an underground movement that wants to continue the Hitler movement in Germany . There are really outstanding photography inside Adolph Hitler's Berchtesgard Eagles Nest , which is all bombed out and you see Heisemann standing in front of the large window in Berchtesgard . There is plenty of suspense and good supporting actors like Richard Egan , ( Lt . Parker ) and even some romance . Enjoy

Nice Comedy From 1956
This was a very entertaining film from 1956 with some great veteran actors who have had great roles in their careers and this is a rather silly film which seems to go on and on . However , this is a comedy concerning an American Ambassador's Daughter named Joan Fisk , ( Olivia De Havilland ) who live in France and meets up with a soldier named Danny , ( John Forsythe ) and Joan is modeling various dresses for an American Red Cross Benefit and Danny becomes very attracted to Joan . Joan does not tell Danny she is the daughter of an American Ambassador and pretends to be a French girl who is a professional model . There are wonderful actors in this film , namely , Myrna Loy , ( Mrs . Cartwright ) ; Adolphe Menou , ( Sen . Jonathan Cartwright ) and Tommy Noonan , ( Cpl . Al O'Connor all gave outstanding supporting roles . If you like old time comedy films , this is the film for you .

No Chains Used

Great John Travolta Film
This film started out with a couple having trouble with their young son who seemed to enjoy telling lies , in other words , it was " Cry Wolf " all the time which had the couple visiting the police department quite often . John Travolta was the father and he was getting a divorce from his wife and the boy was not very happy about his new step-father , because he was very close to his own father . Vince Vaughn , ( Rich Barnes ) plays the role of the new father and has some very deep dark secrets about his past ; however , he is very rich and is very popular in their home town . It is not too long after the wedding that the film explodes into a very fast action filled film with plenty of heat , like a very hot furnace . John Travolta gave an outstanding performance as a boat builder and a very loving father . Enjoy

Great Ava Gardner Film
Greatly enjoyed this film about the British withdrawing from India and the wonderful photography and the great scenery . However , Ava Gardner , ( Victoria Jones ) , " City On Fire " , ' 79 looked simply beautiful , considering she tried to keep up with Frank Sinatra on the fast track of real life . Victoria Jones played the role of a very tricky gal , who twisted men around her little finger and pretended to be someone else other than herself . Stewart Granger , ( Col . Rodney Savage ) , " The Wild Geese " , ' 78 , was a very clever military soldier and kept a close eye on Victoria for more reasons than only one . There is great acting between Gardner and Stewart who were at the height of their careers . Enjoy .

Rapist Never Stops
Joanna Kerns , ( Jessica Rayner ) gave an outstanding performance of a woman who was raped on her front lawn and the only thing that saved her was an old man coming to her aid . Jessica has a very happy family life with her husband , Anthony John Denison , ( Dan Rayner ) who have a business that works out of their home and everything is going in the right direction until this rapist strikes . What makes this film terrifying is the fact that many other women are being raped and this rapist constantly goes back to Jessica and attempts to rape and kill her so she will not be able to identify him . This film begins to get rather boring with this rapist never being able to get caught by police or anyone else .

Jack Palance Needed Work
Enjoyed this Italian Film , which had comedy , drama and plenty of gang-buster shootings and mob torture . Women seemed to get their clothes ripped off and also slapped in the face back and forth . There was some very clever old and young thieves who managed to rip off plenty of men and woman . Some of the police were former crooks and at times used this experience in their detective plans to catch the big mob fences , who did money laundering through out the country . Jack Palance of course played the king pin and was a bad guy who hid in an American Embassy . This is definitely a very low budget film , but great to see Jack Palance trying to make a few bucks .

Lots of Comedy & Fun
Melanie Griffith , ( V ) played a woman of the streets who meets up with three boys who want to see what a girl looks like in the nude . Of course , if they really wanted to do it the correct way , they could ask their dad's and possibly their mothers . However , this is a Hollywood film and it made the entire story quite funny , especially when they have a sex education class and decided to use a rather non-kosher way of presenting the facts . Ed Harris , ( Tom Wheeler ) plays the father to Michael Patrick Carter , ( Frank Wheeler ) who gets to be good friends with Melanie Griffith and introduces her to his father . This is a very entertaining film and you can find fault with this film whether you are on the left or right side in life , but comedy and laughs are good for everyone and I recommend this film for great viewing .

Lost My Memory
This film starts off with Joanna Kerns , ( Jane Ravenson ) wandering around in a grocery store and just plain looking with a blank stare at everyone in the store , she really looks like a very lost soul . As the story progresses , Jane Ravenson realizes that she has lost her memory and does not know where to go or what to do in this horrible situation . Jane finds her clothing filled with blood and lots of money in her top coat and only night wear under neither . Jane eventually finds she is married to a very rich and successful doctor named John Shea , ( Dr . Michael Ravenson ) who loves her very much and they also have a sweet young girl . This story will surprise you with its drama and final ending . This is a very entertaining film and excellent acting by Joanna Kerns . Enjoy .

Enjoyable 1933 Classic Film
These old time films in black and white hold my interest and especially great actors like Lionel Atwell , ( Dr . Otto Von Niemann ) along with Fay Wray , ( Ruth Bertin ) and Melvyn Douglas , ( Karl Brellschneider ) . The local town people are experiences strange deaths in their town where the people all have their blood drained from their bodies and there are two small puncture wounds on their necks . Rumors's start to spread that they are caused by bats and some people think it is a vampire which is attacking all the people . Karl is the local policeman in the area and he sets out to try and solve just what is going on and he seeks the help from a local town doctor named Dr . Otto Von Niemann who thinks it could possibly be a local man who seems to love bats and keeps them as pets and he also keeps them in his home and in his coat . This is a great classic film with some comedy mixed in with all this blood sucking .

Problem Still Occurring
Every once in awhile you will read in the newspaper or a story will appear on TV about some person or persons who claim the Jewish people were never placed in concentration camps or even placed in ovens by the Nazi's during World War II . In this story , Randy Quaid , ( Pete Suvak ) is a High School Teacher who teaches his students his version of world history and his sick version of how the Jewish people played a large role in controlling Germany during the World Wars and are still an evil race . In other words , praising Hitler for his evil deeds . Pete Suvak brain washed , Thomas Wilson Brown , ( Mark McKinnon ) , Mark McKinnon a young boy in his class and Mark brought home to his mother , Lindsay Wagner , ( Kate McKinnon ) this hateful information . It did not take much time before Kate McKinnon woke up and realized that something was very wrong in her hometown and a certain history teacher . This film rings true today and for many generations , " Never Forget What Hitler Did " to the Jewish People and all other races during WW II and what happened in those concentration camps , that No One Seemed to care About !

Joan Blondell Looked Beautiful
Enjoyed this classic 1937 film which was a very cute comedy about a King played by Fernand Gravet , ( Alfred Bruger VII ) who falls in love with a chorus girl played by Joan Blondell , ( Miss Dorothy Ellis ) . Alfred Bruger the King fell in love almost immediately after viewing her as a chorus girl and wound up taking her to his home and she locked him in his own bedroom and would not let him out . There is plenty of comical games being played between this couple and they both fall deeply in love with each other . The King even hires an entire cruise ship to capture Dorothy Ellis in an effort to propose to her and never let her get away . Edward Everett Horton , ( Count Humbert Evel Bruger ) gave a great supporting role and added plenty of comedy in many scenes . If you look close , you will see Jane Wyman , ( the former wife of President Ronald Regan ) .

Old Classic
The cast in this film is filled with great movie greats with excellent talents , but this film is too long and boring and I am glad this type of film is not produced any longer and in the past . Hedy Lamarr , ( Irene Von Mohr ) was beautiful but always had a depressed look on her face and appeared like a person who had no emotions . Paul Henreid , ( Vincent Van Der Lyn ) looked like Humphrey Bogart in this picture and for some reason did not fit very well in his role . Sydney Greenstreet , ( Ricardo Quintanilla ) gave a great supporting performance along with his partner in many pictures , Peter Lorre , ( Jan Bermazsky ) . Victor Francen , ( Hugo Van Mohr ) , " Beast with Five Fingers " played a very mysterious role behind the scenes .

Great Boxing Film in Prison
Always liked boxing and enjoyed the great role that Wesley Snipes , ( Monroe Hutchens ) , " Chaos " , ' 05 , portrayed as a ten year inmate who in prison was an undefeated champion boxer and was the pride and joy of all the inmates . Ving Rhames , ( Iceman Chambers ) , " Animal " , ' 05 , is the World Heavy Weight Champion on the outside world and has to serve a term in jail with Monroe Hutchens . A foxy old owl named Mendy Ripstein , ( Peter Falk ) , " Checking Out " , ' 04 , has plenty of connections on the outside and knew all the great boxers from the past , Billy Conn , Jack Dempsey , Joe Louis and a few mob bosses . Mendy decides he can make money for Monroe Hutchens and also help out the Iceman if they have a match in the prison . Great boxing tale with plenty of action and mean , nasty inmates .

Sad Picture
This is a very down to earth film about German Jews who were kicked out of Hamburg , Germany and were placed on a ship called the S / S St . Louis headed to Havana , Cuba . This ship carried 937 passengers , some children and Jewish people with all kinds of backgrounds , even prisoners from concentration camps who were teachers . The Nazi movement was showing great Anti-Semitism during the Year 1939 before World War II started . Faye Dunaway , ( Denise Kreisler ) gave an outstanding performance as a very pretty , rich , sexy wife of Dr . Egan Kreisler , ( Oskar Werner ) . There is a young man who works on the ship and is a German and he falls in love with a very pretty Jewish girl and they become very close together and had to make some horrible decisions . Great film which tells the true story of what happened to most of the people who were on board this horrible cruise of Nazi Germany .

John Carradine was Outstanding
Always enjoyed the films of John Carradine and in this film you will see his great acting abilities as a painter who loves to paint beautiful women and gets a thrill out of killing them . John playing the role of Bluebeard is a natural to him with all his expressions and eyes that seem to glow like moons . The law is constantly trying to find this killer and they keep going around in circles . Bluebead meets up with a very attractive girl named Lucille , ( Jean Parker ) who seems to make him change his ways and he actually falls in love with her and she has no idea just what type of man he is , except that he paints a good picture . This is a great John Carradine Classic which is worth watching after his many horror films over the years of his career .

Entertaining Film
The beginning of this film is very strange with a man , Paul Decker , ( Peter Van Eyck ) crawling around in a dark room and turning off various connections and inserting hoses and then you see him wearing a snorkel . As the film moves on you begin to realize just what is going on and discover that Paul Decker is up to no good and has caused many deaths . There is a daughter who becomes suspicious of her father Paul Decker and she is constantly watching him and even goes to the police , but no one believes her . Jean Edwards , ( Betta St . John ) tries to help Paul's daughter because she also has a love relationship with Paul , and the daughter and father definitely do not get along . This film will hold your interest and entertain you right to the very end , which is really funny . Enjoy

The Black Cat was the Star
This rendition of Edgar Allen Poe directed by Roger Corman was not up to my expectations . Vincent Price , ( Verden Fell ) , played the role of a mad man who stood guard over his wife's grave and also a black cat kept him company . There was a fox hunt and The Lady Rowena , ( Elizabeth Shepherd ) happened to approach the grave site of Ligeia and out jumped Verden Fell ready to choke her to death . Verden seemed to snap out of his mental state of mind and proceeded to fall in love with her , however , he still was deeply in love with his wife Ligeia and slept in separate bedrooms after his marriage . This is a rather boring film that seems to go on and on and does not make very much sense at all . Vincent Price gave a great performance , but the Black Cat stole most of the scenes away from him .

Fantastic Acting
Excellent film dealing in the 1700's which capture my complete attention and kept me on the edge of my seat . Liam Neelson ( Robert Roy MacGregor ) " Gangs of New York " , ' 02 , portrayed a Scotchman who believed in the clan's honor and respect and sort of upset his wife , ( Jessica Lange ) , ( Mary MacGregor ) , " Masked & Anonymous " , ' 03 . There was plenty of scenes with blood and guts fighting . The bad guy in the film is Tim Roth , ( Archibald Cunningham ) " To Kill A King " , ' 03 . Archibald Cunningham stole quite a few scenes throughout the picture with outstanding acting . Well produced and directed film . This is a must see film if you missed it , all the actors deserved an Oscar .

Wife Was No Good In Bed !
The movie starts out with love making going on in the bedroom of Travis Morrow , ( Mark Rendall ) , and his wife , Samantha Morrow , ( Christine Lahti ) tells her husband , " I Hope it was Good for You , It is always Good for Me " and after looking at the expression on her husbands face , you just simply know what is going to happen next , and maybe you don't . Great acting by Eva Marie Saint , ( Veronica Reynolds ) who does everything she can to help her daughter realize the pitfalls in married life . Daniel Baldwin , ( King ) has deep feelings for Samantha and for some reason Samantha just considers him as a good friend and nothing more . The moral in this picture is sex is not everything in a marriage , it sure helps but going off the deep end and creating a big problem for yourself solves nothing .

Found this film to be quite enjoyable , considering it dealt with the spirit world and spirits that need a place called home . There is a serial killer loose and Andrew McCarthy , ( Michael Lewis ) , " The Orphan King " , ' 05 , gets himself involved with the restoring of a very old Mansion and opens up boxes which contain all kinds of problems he has to face . Michael eventually gets assistance from Detective Pryce , ( Amanda Redman ) , " Sexy Beast " , 2000 , who resents Michael and thinks he is nuts and needs a shrink to solve his vision problems .

The title of this film captured my interest and there is a scene where a little girl goes out with her dad hunting in the woods near Hidden Lake and he expects his daughter to hit the target immediately . The little girl finds eagle feathers and it is from that point on that the story goes down all kinds of different paths and the little girl becomes a mature woman who leaves Chicago to visit her dad . The little girl is Rena Sofer , ( Maggie Dolan ) , " March " , ' 01 who really is the star of this TV film and sort of carries the film on her back through out almost every scene . The story disappointed me in many ways and it seemed to go on and on like a Merry-go-Round .

Rossano Brazzi , ( Signor Naccarelli ) , " Fear City " , ' is the father to Fabrizio and becomes interested in Meg Johnson , whose husband is played by Barry Sullivan who is very seldom seen in this film . There are plenty of laughs and some light drama to go along with a very Light Headed Film .

Betty Mason , ( Eleanor Hunt ) adds some female charm to the film and John Carruthers falls madly in love with her big brown eyes . If you like classic western films , this is the film for you , the film locations are outstanding for 1934 . Enjoy .

Revenge Gets You No Where
Great film with outstanding actors who made this film enjoyable to view and plenty of action which suddenly all starts to happen on a nice friendly weekend . Rutger Hauer , ( John Tanner ) , " Mentor " , ' 06 , portrays a TV Personality , something like a Spin Zone , which puts people in the public eye on the so called SPOT . John's wife is Meg Foster , " Coming Up Easy " , ' 04 who loves her husband very much and will even shoot bows and arrows for him , but she begins to have her doubts and at one point in the film decides to take their son and depart . John Hurt , ( Lawrence Fassett ) , " Shooting Dogs " , ' 05 , plays the role of a rather hateful character who seeks revenge for something his wife had to go through in her bedroom . Craig T . Nelson , ( Bernard Osterman ) , " The District " , ' 04 TV series , gives a great supporting role . It was nice to see Burt Lancaster make a few brief appearances in this film and I must say , Meg Foster has the most sexy looking eyes I have ever seen on a woman .

Marshall Cordell became involved with Cheyenne and she falls in love with him and also the gal he intends to marry which adds some romance to this shoot E'M kill E'm Film

There is plenty of action in this film dealing with people from another planet who send information to some scientists who are interested in UFO's and communicating with them . These scientists obtain information from outer space about a DNA embryo which they fertilize and a baby by mistake is born and escapes into the world . Xavier Fitch , ( Ben Kingsley ) is in charge of this experiment and calls in a group of people who can help him locate where this baby has disappeared to . Dr . Laura Baker , ( Marg Helgenberger ) assists Xavier in their search and finds out that this baby is no longer a child but a full grown woman and they have to locate this person quickly because she has already killed quite a few people and desperately wants to have a baby whenever she can find the most suitable man . There is plenty of blood and guts and very romantic scenes which usually wind up in a blood bath death . Marg Helgenberger , star of CSI Las Vegas gave an outstanding performance in this film and I can fully understand why she was selected to star in the CSI TV Series where she deals with DNA all the time .

Subway Car on the Platform
Greatly enjoyed this film which had the New York City Police going uptown and downtown and lots of action even in Wall Street , the financial section . There was a famous department store on Fifth Ave which had plenty of damage and also a very wild ride through Central Park with Jackson and Willis . Bruce Willis , ( John McClane ) , " Hostage " , ' 05 played a sort of washed up detective who loved his booze and had many hangovers through out the entire picture . Samuel L . Jackson , ( Zeus Carver ) , " The Man " , ' 05 gave an outstanding performance as a store owner in Harlem who managed to get roped into a big mess along with John McClane . Of course , I cannot forget that Jeremy Irons , ( Simon Gruber ) , " Casanova " , ' 05 , enjoyed playing a child's game named : " SIMON SAYS " and believe me this was not a game for kids in this film . Sit back and enjoy a great film and great actors all doing a fantastic job .

Interesting Film
Liked the title to this film because of the fact I like stories that have something to do with Alcatraz the " Rock " and this was a great film from 1942 concerning some convicts who manage to escape from the prison .

There is secret messages being transmitted by Morse Code back and forth to the enemy sub and these convicts begin to find out just what is happening to them and the other civilians . This is a good Classic 1942 film with great direction and a very excellent story . Enjoy .

Chicken & Waffles , Bible Quoting , Evil vs . Good !
It was very hard to sit and view this film , but I decided to see what this Judgement Day film was all about . Poor Ice-T , " Up in Harlem " , ' 04 , has to make a living and had no choice but play the role of Matthew Reese , a convict who is given a second chance by Suzy Amis , ( Jeanine Tyrell ) , " Firestorm " , ' 98 who played the role of an FBI Agent . Suzy had no make up , looked very bad in close ups and wore her hair in a pig tail and appeared skinny as a bean pole through out the entire picture ; I forgot , she did let her hair down , but not for sex . There was lots of quotations from the Bible , and especially the Book of Revelations , where the earth is suppose to be set on fire and the end of the world occurs . Lots of time wasted on talking about eating in a food joint called the Chicken & Waffles . The entire film was a big waste of time , but if you want to waste time , this is the film for you !

Classic Paul Muni FILM
Never realized that Paul Muni , ( Joe Radek ) played in a film concerning miners in Pennsylvania and gave such an outstanding performance beyond anything I realized he had accomplished in his long career on the silver screen . In this film Joe Radek is an immigrant to this country , however , he is very clever in many ways and seeks justice for his fellow workers in the coal mine in which the town people work . Karen Morley , ( Anna Novak ) gives a great supporting role to this film and really loves Joe Radek and what he is trying to accomplish . The town is controlled by the coal mine owners and Barton MacLane , ( McGree ) along with William Gargan , ( Slim Johnson / Company Police bully the people in the town along with J Carrol Nash , ( Steve Croner ) who all work against the miners and control their living conditions .

Constance Bennett was A Pin Up in 1931
Heard about Joan Bennett , but never viewed any of Constance Bennett's films , and in this 1931 picture she was very young and had great talent . Constance , ( Laura Murdock ) , " Sin Town " , ' 42 , played a young gal who lived in a low income flat with her large Irish family and a father who was lazy and drunk most of the time . Laura decided to move out and go on her own when she meets Adolphe Menjou ( William Brockton ) , " I Married a Woman " , ' 58 , who played a fat , rich , dirty old man who buys Laura's body and soul . As the picture progresses , Laura has plenty of worldly goods , but deep down is very unhappy and Bill Brockton does not intend to marry Laura , but just gives her promises . One day , Laura meets Robert Montgomery , ( Jack Madison ) , " The Great Gatsby " , ' 55 TV , who is a reporter and falls in love with him . You will also see Clark Gable , " The Misfits " , ' 61 , who portrays the role as a laundryman who goes house to house and eventually marries Laura's sister . The " Easiest Way " , was performed on the New York City stage and was a rather sexy play for 1931 , because Laura was considered a prostitute living with a man unmarried in those days . You will like this ending , but the real ending was a great deal different .

A Truly Great Classic that Lives On and On
I was very young when I first viewed this film in 1946 and never dreamed that this film would still be viewed and commented about in this 21st Century . All the stars in this film were great actors and gave fantastic performances and it is great to see films like this being shown and enjoyed by future generations in America and around the world . Claudette Colbert , ( Leola ' Lee ' Addams ) , " So Proudly We Hail , " ' 43 , played a very strong mother who lost her husband suddenly and found herself very much in debt and having a daughter , June Allyson , ( Penny Addams ) , " The Glenn Miller Story " , ' 53 , who seemed to have mental problems dealing with past experiences of her father . Lionel Barrymore , ( Dr . Rossiger ) , " Duel In The Sun " , ' 46 , was the doctor treating Penny Addams and also her mother Leola . Walter Pigeon , ( Chris Matthews ) , " Funny Girl " , ' 68 , was a very good friend of the family and stood in the background and gave the family all his support to bring happiness to the family . This is a great Classic drama with a very haunting piano selection which is played through out the picture and adds to the deep secrets hidden in Penny Addams mind and soul . Enjoy . "

Nick Nolte , ( Bob Montagnet ) , " Neverwas " , ' 05 was perfect in this role as a gambler and thief all living in the fast lane of life , just like Nolte likes to do in his real life . Nutsa Kukhianidze , ( Anne ) " Mathilde " ' 04 played the role of a young girl 17 years of age , who was a hooker and met up with Bob who treated her like a father and daughter in an odd sort of way , but they did get along . However , Anne got all her loving from younger guys who seemed to come and go . There is great photography around all the casino's and there is plenty of scenic views through out the entire picture . Nutsa Kukhianidze is as skinny as a bean pole and does have a few nude scenes and does some very hot sexy dancing . This is really not one of Nick Holte's better films , but it is very entertaining and seems to drop dead at the END !

Locke was Outstanding
Once I realized that Sondra Locke was going to be in this picture , I knew she would give an outstanding performance as Marguerite , " Ratboy " , ' 86 . Marguerite is a young girl who is very clever about many things and just simply stays in the house and talks to her dolls who seem to her as being real people who can talk to her and advise her what to do . Marguerites father is Robert Shaw , ( Michael ) , " Jaws " , ' 74 who has not seen his daughter in many years and was never around when she was born into this world . Michael meets Sally Kellerman , ( Anna ) , " Ugly " , ' 04 and wants to marry her , but he has to get permission from Marguerite's mother . Marguerite finally sees her father after so very long and becomes overly attached to her father and practically smothers him with her over powering love and affection . Sondra Locke put her heart and soul into this role and showed her great ability as a very dramatic actress . Very entertaining film .

Biology Should Have Been Studied
This film was probably a shocker for audiences in the Year 1959 when teens getting pregnant was a horrible thing and the parents never explained anything to their children about sex and just figured they would all be educated through biology classes in school . This story is about a young innocent boy , Arthur Bartley , ( Brandon DeWilde ) who likes the girl next door , Janet Willard , ( Carol Lynley ) who liked Arthur and Janet decided to give Arthur a good lesson about love making and sex which usually starts a big event in people's lives , babies . Malcolm Bartley , ( Macdonald Carey ) Arthur's dad had great hopes for his son and he found out that his son was failing in Biology Classes and had straight A's in all his other subjects . Jessie Bartley , ( Marsha Hunt ) plays the role as Arthur's mother , who is a very calm woman and is very supportive of her family and gives an outstanding performance . By the way , Marsha Hunt had her 91st Birthday on Oct . 17 , 2008 , she was born on October 17 , 1917 and was a great actress on the big screen and also on the New York City Stage . This film was entertaining , enjoy .

Now A Lay Me Down to Sleep !
Had no idea just what type of film this was going to turn out to be , in the opening scenes there is a gal who used a complete dictionary of real foul language and I mean real bad , the guys tried to match her , but failed . This is a very interesting story about a gal who is supposedly having a child and is very pregnant ( 9 mos . ) throughout the entire picture , this poor gal is Juliette Lewis , ( Robin ) who does fantastic acting . Robin has body guards protecting her during this pregnancy to make sure the concerned party receives the baby when delivered . There are also some bad dudes who try to interfere with the safety of Robin and one of the guys tells a story about how he prays the pray : " Now A Lay Me Down to Sleep I pray the Lord my Soul to take , if I should Die Before I Sleep , I Pray the Lord my Soul to Take " , indicating this was the only pray he could pray . I found this quite strange , because this film is rather full of blood and gory , murder and plenty of killing . If you like a way out film with James Caan , ( Joe Sarno ) playing a real cool Cat , this is the film for you .

Mildred Natwick , ( Ethel Banks ) who plays the role as the mother to Cori and she gets involved with Victor Velasco in a romantic relationship .

Fantastic Film
Had my doubts if I was going to enjoy this film and once I started viewing this film , my eyes were glued to the TV Screen . Ron Perlman , ( Hellboy ) " 5ive Girls " , ' 06 gave an outstanding performance growing up as a small red hell-boy with one large lobster type hand , horns and a nice long tail . Hellboy is protected by some evil forces that want to conquer the entire world , however , Hellboy changes his thinking and starts to have emotions which lead him to become very attracted to this one gal . There are very wild creatures that never seem to stop multiply and Hellboy even gets involved with an egg hunt along with a marine creature that maneuver's under the water . Great entertaining film , don't miss seeing it .

Great Film
Liked the film , " In Cold Blood " which made Truman Capote a very wealthy man and also a famous celebrity who appeared on many TV shows and a few films . Toby Jones captured the entire film with his life like portrayal of the real Capote and made him come alive once again to tell a deeper and darker side to his childhood and true feelings towards one of the killers . This film also revealed the type of people that Truman Capote associated with in New York City high society and what a gossip he was among all the ladies and a few men . Sigourney Weaver , ( Babe Paley ) along with many other famous actors gave great supporting roles to this picture . However , this is truly a great masterpiece for Toby Jones who put his heart and soul into this role . Enjoy .

Nice Classic Mitchum Film
Enjoyed this Robert Mitchum film where he plays the role as a Korean War Veteran named Lucas Doolin who returns to his family and continues to carry on the family trade of running moonshine whiskey from the family still . Lucas is a very admired young man who has two different gals that are head over heels in love with him , but he just keeps running up and down the mountain hills of the South and never seems to want to quit and settle down . Gene Barry , ( Troy Barrett ) plays the role as a Treasury Agent who starts to investigate this moonshine business and is hot on the heels of Lucas Doolin . However , there is another man who wants to take over the whiskey running business and this creates more problems for Lucas as all his family and friends who are in this business and are going to run into big troubles . It was nice seeing Robert Mitchum's oldest son also giving a supporting role in this film .

Great Entertaining Classic Film
Sure missed this film over the years and was very glad I was finally able to view it on TV . James Coborn , ( Harry ) , " Intrepid " , played the role of a master at the art of pickpocketing and also had a side kick , Walter Pidgeon , ( Casey ) " Funny Girl " who gave a great supporting role . Michael Sarrazen , ( Ray Houlihan ) " Feardotcom " was starting out as an apprentice to this field of putting your hands in other peoples pockets . Trish Van Devere , ( Sandy Coletto ) " Messenger of Death " , was also in on this racket and her lover was Ray Houlihan . Trish would wear very very short skirts and bend over to distract young and old men in order to enable her co-workers to pick their pockets dry . This four some went from city to city and had a ball doing whatever they pleased . This is truly a great classic film from 1973 with James Coborn at the top of his career and his supporting cast were outstanding . Enjoy

Classic B Film
This Black and White film from the late 40's had a great deal of class and great acting . Steve Brodie , ( Steve Randall ) , " Frankenstein Island " , ' 81 , played a guy who had all the bad breaks and never seemed to be able to settle down with the gal or off spring and have a nice home in a small country town . Audrey Lang , ( Anne Randall ) , " Born to Kill " , ' 47 , was the wife of Steve Randall who did her best to help him make the right decisions and even got him to marry her . Steve and Ann Randall kept running away from a terrible threat made by Raymond Burr , ( Walt Radak ) , " San Quentin " , ' 46 , who was seeking revenge for the loss of a close family member . Jason Robards Sr . , ( Detective Lt . , Louie Ferrari ) , " Impact " , ' 49 , played the detective who was very interested in Steve Randall and hounded him where ever he traveled . There are some very tense scenes in which Walt Radak uses a clock to drive Steve Randall to a complete breaking point in his life . Great classic B film with a very young looking Raymond Burr and Jason Robards Sr . giving a great supporting role .

Discovered a great Horror Film
For some reason I missed viewing this Horror film and enjoyed the very young looking Anthony Hopkins , ( Charles " Corky " ) who is taught the magic business by an old pro and knows all the secrets of being a great magician . Charles is a rather shy and introvert who does not have very much confidence in himself , however , he does manage to get on the public stage and performs cards tricks which no one pays any attention to and he becomes very upset . Charle's next step is to create a dummy and becomes a very good ventriloquist and devotes his entire being to this dummy who takes complete control of his life , but at the same time makes him very famous and extremely rich . Charles agent , Ben Greene , ( Burgess Meredeth ) becomes suspicious of the way Charels is acting towards to dummy and realizes he is having a mental problem . Charles also meets up with an old time girl friend he had a crush on and things get pretty hot for Peggy Ann Snow , ( Ann Margret ) who is also married to a guy named Duke who is no one you want to run into , especially if you are going to bed with his wife . Great horror film and great acting by the entire cast of actors . Enjoy .

JOHN FORD'S PICTURE IS A CLASSIC !
John Ford made this another great film classic for future generations and a great learning film . Henry Fonda ( Priest / and Fugitive ) gave a wonderful performance along with Dolores del Rio ( An Indian Woman ) . This black and white film made the horrors of prison life very real and uncomfortable . J . Carrol Naish ( Police Informer ) ran after Fonda throughout the entire picture . Leo Carrillo ( Chief of Police ) ( famous for his acting in the Cisco Kid Movies ) ruled his corrupt jail with an iron fist . Ward Bond had to make an appearance as ( El Gringo ) and if you look real fast , you will see Mel Ferrer as Father Serra ) All of John Ford's films were great in the 30's and 40's and will always remain so .

Gorgeous Graham , ( Marie Wilson ) is a very sexy blonde who gets involved with Milo which adds to his problems and the story goes around and around with Milo trying to hid this hot gal in his bedroom without being seen .

A Headache of a Picture
The two lovers in this picture who were having an affair , namely : Deborah Kerr , ( Sarah Miles ) and Van Johnson , ( Maurice Bendrix ) both bored me to death with their flashbacks about their so called love affair . The entire picture went around in complete circles along with bombs exploding in London during World War 11 . The End of the Affair should have been over before it started , I doubt very much if this couple even enjoyed their so called sexual affair , the both acted way out of character and Van Johnson and Deborah Kerr were not suited for each other as actors in this film . It is a depressing horrible film and it really gave me a Headache to watch .

All of the staff has their own serious problems as well as trying to take care of some very serious mental patients who require a great deal of attention .

Richard Widmark and Lauren Bacall gave a great performance along with the very sexy gal , Gloria Grahame . This is a very crazy film and it will keep you guessing just how this picture will ever end .

Interesting second version of Hellraiser , where you actually have a good idea what hell is all about and after viewing this film from beginning to end , you have experienced a LIVING HELL !

Star's SWAN SONG
Always enjoyed the great acting of John Garfield , ( Nick Robey ) and for some reason , I did not see this picture until just recently on TCM . The film is hard to locate nowadays and was great to see the very last picture that John Garfield ever made . As usual , Nick Robey is a down on his luck guy in this picture and even his own mother hates his guts and gives him a very hard slap in the face . Nick gets involved with a robbery and decides at the same time to go for a swim in the local indoor swimming pool and meets up with Shelly Winters , ( Peggy Dobbs ) . These two get pretty close to each other and Peggy sort of invites Nick into her parents apartment and it is from that point in the film when everything starts to get interesting . John Garfield's career was beginning to slow down for him in Hollywood and he did have heart problems and was found dead making love , which was probably exactly the way Garfield would have want it to happen in real life . Great Classic film with a very sad ending .

Myrna Loy was young and pretty and getting great attention from Hollywood and the general audiences . There was plenty of smoking through out this film and it clearly shows how the world has finally changed about its view on smoking .

Very Nice Behaved Bunch of Guys & Gals
Russell Crowe , ( Hando ) , " A Beautiful Mind " , ' 01 , gave an outstanding performance in this film about Skin Heads along with Jacqueline McKenzie , ( Gabe ) , " Opal Dream " , ' 05 . This film really got down to the dirty filthy facts of how the Skins live and act and make love to women like they were just a piece of human flesh to do anything they want done . I doubt very much if any gals or guys who appreciate starting out their life with this type skin head type of mentality . However , it was full of laughs and I enjoyed seeing Gabe getting even with her Old Man and almost destroying his entire home . Gabe played a wild and mixed up gal who wore crazy clothes and made it with anyone who wanted her . Great acting and a very funny and entertaining film , not to be taken seriously at ALL !

John Houston's father Walter Houston was a great veteran actor and all the talents seemed to generate in John Houston's family .
