Barfly

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > VHS
starring: Mickey Rourke, Faye Dunaway, Alice Krige, Jack Nance, J.C. Quinn
directed by: Barbet Schroeder

September 01, 1998
This is an excellent film. Nonconformists and those who like to look at things differently than the "regular consensus" might appreciate this film the most.

Yet it is not strange or uncommon. It is brilliantly honest and truthful in a way few films are. It is (somewhat) based on a portion of the life of Charles Bukowski who wrote the screenplay and claimed not to feel the film portrayed what he was really like. It actually probably flattered him a bit much, as Rourke was incredibly attractive somehow in this role. Cinematic magic indeed. Faye Dunaway was also par excellence in her role as an over-the-hill female drunk barfly.

However this movie is WAY too expensive no matter how good it is. Therefore it really needs to be re ... Read More:

August 27, 1996
I love this movie. I haven't seen it in years and I am dismayed to learn that it isn't available on DVD yet. This is one of the best teen movies I have ever seen. It's sweet, honest, funny and kind.

Please release Angus on DVD soon powers that be. Thanks!

Rad

directed by: Hal Needham

I've been a member of the BMX world since the beginning. This movie is truly the best. The action, the music, the now classic bikes really take me back. I just wish this was on BLU-RAY. Buy a BMX race bike and get to the track. Every one out there should try and contact HAL NEEDHAM and convince him to get this to DVD! Blu-Ray!

Mindwalk

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > VHS
starring: Liv Ullmann, Sam Waterston, John Heard, Ione Skye, Emmanuel Montes
directed by: Bernt Amadeus Capra

January 01, 1998
"A stroll around Mont St Michel, France brings together three highly successful and educated people with disparate worldviews; a politician, a poet and a physicist. A conversation ensues about the nature of reality and the new physics that challenges what we perceive to be the tangible world around us.

The '91 film `Mindwalk' is a New Age lecture presented in the guise of a motion picture. It's really quite painless, informative and even enjoyable at times. The tour around St. Michel is wonderful and a stellar cast consisting of Liv Ullmann, Sam Waterston and John Heard make the movie well worth a watch.

The Dollmaker

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > VHS
starring: Jane Fonda, Christine Ebersole, Levon Helm, Geraldine Page, Dan Hedaya
directed by: Daniel Petrie

June 11, 1992
Jane Fonda is unforgettable as a resourceful and extraordinary country woman. Her husband, a struggling Appalachian sharecropper, finds a job in the big city of Detroit in the early 20th century. Thinking he has found a better life, he sends for them. Soon the family is on the verge of disintegration in a strange city. She learns to assert her wisdom and honor her gifts. Its a story filled with deep family love. A shocking scene keeps this from being a movie for young children, but it is sure to be a treasure for the rest of the family.

Hud (1963)

Childrens Toy Shop > VHS > VHS
starring: Paul Newman, Melvyn Douglas, Patricia Neal, Brandon De Wilde, Whit Bissell
directed by: Martin Ritt

March 04, 1991
This movie stands in a class reserved for the best of best in western theme films. Based on the book by Larry McMurtry, "Horseman, Pass By", it also features a very credible performance by Brandon DeWilde as Lonnie, grown up from the little boy he once portrayed in another legend, the unforgettable "Shane" which was filmed about 10 years before. Lonnie worships Hud, who is his father's brother, and the realization that this man of his own blood is not of good character, is a concept too deep for him to grasp until the final turn of events mature him past his youth in the course of one day . The events surrounding this relationship are at the core of the storyline, and also at the core of the conflict between Hud and his old father, Homer, played by Melvyn Dougas. ... Read More:
