Dorothy a young farm girl from Kansas played by the fabulous Judy Garland whose recital of "Somewhere over the rainbow" is both touching and heartwarming....is taken in her dreams to the fantasy land of Oz where she meets up with a tin man, a scarecrow, a Lion with good or bad witches along the way to see The Mighty Wizard of Oz....We're off to see the wizard amidst a haunted forest,an evil witch and a quest to reach the Emerald City were great wonders lurk such as the horse of a different colour.....Dorothy(Judy Garland) was made for this role with her superb singing ability and the musical score...The imagination of this tale is brought to the big screen in the most colourful spectacular way possible albeit the first part of the film was made in black ...

First off, this was not made by MGM (it's a United Artists film) and Tyrone Power cannot be scene in the battle
sequences. He is only visible in one shot of the trailer. It is interesting to speculate on what the film would
have been like with Power but, the truth is, in existing photos from the first version he looks too old for the part. Yul Brynner was an excellent choice to replace him and does a wonderful job in the role. Gina Lollobrigida is unbelievably beautiful as Sheba and wears some of the most revealing costumes in a film up to that time. This is a large scale and
hugely entertaining motion picture. The UK DVD is by far the best transfer I have ever seen of SOLOMON AND
SHEBA and well worth adding to your collection.

DVD : War and Peace [1956] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
I guess I am a purist when it comes to the classics. I like the movie script to follow the original work which I am sorry to say this movie does not. From the first scene in the movie, it is almost like they took extracts from all of the book's events and rearranged the entire timeline. Some of the scenes never happened, others did not happen as they were portrayed, there are many lines in the movie which never were uttered by any of Tolstoy's characters and to me the choices of actors for some of the roles were very misguided. Who in their right mind would choose Henry Fonda as Pierre. Pierre was described all through Tolstoy's epic as being fat, slovenly, very large, etc., wide of girth. Though Henry Fonda was a very fine actor, they seemed to have missed their ... Read More:

DVD : Stella Dallas [1937] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
Stella Dallas is a sad tale of a woman who wishes to get on in life but her working class background holds her back. However, the love she has for her only daughter is unrelenting until she finally realises the child will be best with the father. This is a heartbreaking moment and any mother will find it hard to hold back the tears.

I love this movie and cry from beginning to end!

Barbara Stanwyck is truly wonderful as the brash, no style, Stella!
