A beautiful film about the power of love to transform people. This is one of the best movies ever made and I cannot for the life of me understand why it is not available on DVD in the U.S.

The Indiana Jones Trilogy

starring: Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Sean Connery, Alison Doody, Kate Capshaw
directed by: Steven Spielberg

February 01, 1990
Three years after he successfully thwarted the Nazis attempt to harness the power of the Ark of the Covenant; Indiana Jones is back for even more adventure with "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom". Joining star Harrison Ford and director Steven Spielberg we have a new lead actress, as Kate Capshaw ("Black Rain") becomes the newest Indy girl, and young actor Jonathan Ke Quan as Indy's latest associate, the pint-sized Short Round; along with two new writers, Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz, that had previously worked with producer and co-creator George Lucas on his teen classic "American Graffiti". With all of the pieces in place, it was time for the adventure to continue, as "The Man in the Hat" was back once more on the silver screen.

Loved this movie. It's cute and simple, yet has a lot of messages about life and people and religious dogmas. Total chick flick. My boyfriend didn't make it through.

Luther (2003)

starring: Joseph Fiennes, Bruno Ganz, Peter Ustinov, Alfred Molina, Jonathan Firth
directed by: Eric Till

November 30, 2004
Well acted and entertaining, this movie would be a good watch if it were total fiction. However very much of it is fact. A great look at a man who refused to follow the status quo of the established church and turned to the teachings of Christ and the bible to base his faith and life on. Both entertaining and thought provoking.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

starring: Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Paul Freeman, Ronald Lacey, John Rhys-Davies
directed by: Steven Spielberg


[[ASIN:B0014Z4OMU Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark (Special Edition)]
Steven Spielberg at HIS BEST. Another movie from my Dad's Collection. The action never stops and there's a carefully calculated high-point every 15 minutes at least. The effects are well co-ordinated, and the film is easily Spielberg's most genuinely riveting. The film is produced by George Lucas. Harrison Ford, discovered by Lucas, for STAR WARS, plays the title character, who is BOGART, FLASH GORDON and HAN SOLO rolled into one.

Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina

starring: Sophie Marceau, Sean Bean, Alfred Molina, Mia Kirshner, James Fox
directed by: Bernard Rose

August 25, 1998
One of the most visualy stunning costume dramas I have ever seen! Every thing is so beautifu the actors, the costumes which deserved an oscar nomination, the authentic russian sets and a great score. Sophie Marceau is beautiful as Anna but lacks the acting ability to play such a complex character. Sean Bean as Vronsky and Sophie Marceau have great chemistry. The film has sparks of greatness but fails. Some scenes like the ball scence and Anna's death are beautifuly shot and succeed and most others just seem lukewarm. Levin story is cut to only to a few minutes they probably should have not included him and just focused on Anna's story in my opinion. It pains me to say this but the film is wort buying if only for the visuals. I watch my copy on mute most of the time ... Read More:

A Night of Love

starring: Camilla Søeberg, Alfred Molina, Simon Callow, Eric Stoltz, Lindsay Duncan
directed by: Dusan Makavejev

October 16, 1997
This movie is a sort of a mess, but it did inspire one of the actors, Simon Callow, to write one of the best books on the process of filmmaking, "Shooting the Actor." His unhappy recollections are punctuated by comments by the movie's director, and the two have irreconcilable but instructive differences in discussing what actually happened on the set.

So if obstreperous Balkan humor about sex and politics is your bag, this movie is as good as any other, but read Callow's book along with it, and you'll thank your lucky stars your fantasy of becoming a movie actor never came true.
