1.Paint Your Wagon [1970] starring: Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood, Jean Seberg, Harve Presnell, Ray Walston directed by: Joshua Logan February 04, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £12.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £3.98 You Save: £9.01 (69%) Prices subject to change.
I read on IMDB that 'Paint your Wagon' single handidly killed off the western and musical genres. Ignore sush tripe. It's a long film, but in this day of long films with pointless side plots, this doesn't waste a minute. Filled with great tunes, funny (and clever!) jokes and superb performances I'd say this is a must. At little more than £5 in highstreet stores it's a bargain. "Shermahorn, sit down, you haven't been rec-og-nised" "But I'm Shermahorn"

This is an exceptional movie on many levels. The adaptation from play to screen carried without the look and feel. The music outsells the movie. They picked the best actors for EVERY part. The use of colored filters [Todd-AO (70-mm version)] and actually using a remote island (Tioman Island, Malaysia) added to the exotic feel. The social implications are still with us today. With all the cinema options today I almost forgot that I had this tape until yesterday when Ray Walston who played Luther Billis died. I keep thinking of "Honey Bun" Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II Music by Richard Rodgers Performed by Mitzi Gaynor, Ray Walston, Chorus.

4.Camelot [1967] starring: Richard Harris, Vanessa Redgrave, Franco Nero, David Hemmings, Lionel Jeffries directed by: Joshua Logan June 01, 2006

Sumptuous lavish but dreadfully over-long musical telling the story of King Arthur and his Round Table. Some very good songs here, and Richard Harris at his most handsome is in fine voice, but has some stiff competition from Franco Nero! The versatility and talents of Nero can be seen clearly here, when compared to his somewhat dark and brooding role in 'The Virgin And The Gypsy' that followed a couple of years later. Lionel Jeffries surpasses himself in yet another one of his fabulous character roles as King Pellinore. Nice musical this, but one really has to be in the mood to watch such a terribly long movie of three hours!

6.South Pacific [1958] starring: Rossano Brazzi, Mitzi Gaynor, John Kerr, Ray Walston, Juanita Hall directed by: Joshua Logan March 08, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £2.84
If I'm commenting on the film I would have to say it's wonderful. I've always loved it, probably because of the music, scenery and it's a perfect way to spend a couple of hours. If I'm commenting on the product, it was so annoying to have an intermission in the middle. What's the thinking behind that? It may not bother most people but it really irritated me. If I'd wanted a break I would pause it when I wanted. I sold my DVD and will probably buy a video. That's the only reason for the low score.

I can see that this film was more ground-breaking in the 1950s than now, in that it depicts fractured family relationships and is far-removed from the Doris Day-type movies of the time. The acting is at times over-the-top and William Holden's character a bit cheesy as he repeatedly takes his shirt off to reveal well-oiled pectorals. Nevertheless, I watched it to the end.
