VHS : The Sound Of Music [1965]
If "West Side Story" was the best musical film of the sixties, then "The Sound of Music," adapted from the long-running Broadway musical play about Maria Von Trapp and her singing family, was certainly the most popular...

With a story that includes the right amount of family sentiment (the Von Trapp children never quarrel among themselves), religion (in the Hollywood tradition of serene, kind nuns), romance (actually two romances, one adult, one adolescent), and anti-Nazi feeling (Captain Von Trapp refuses to surrender to the Nazi invaders)--and with director Robert Wise who is in fact a solid, conscientious craftsman and a fluent story-teller mercifully free of grandiose pretensions, "The Sound of Music" is perfect with its sumptuous ...

VHS : What Ever Happened To Baby Jane [1962]
From the era when great acting and a great storyline were key, this is a classic. Good use of tension building, fabulous gritty acting, solid cinematography. You can't go wrong. Enjoy...

VHS : Revolution [1985]
I don't agree with Dr. Fritz Juengling's review but I resisted challenging him until he slipped his homophobia into his outburst of negativity. Okay, some of the accents were dodgy (I have a problem with Donald Sutherland's for sure), but the film is engaging and gritty. It is definitely worth watching.

6.Fort Apache [1948] starring: John Wayne, Henry Fonda, Shirley Temple, Pedro Armendáriz, Ward Bond
directed by: John Ford
August 18, 1997

VHS : Fort Apache [1948]
A great Western with a complicated story, fantastic action and humour. For it's time time Fort Apache was filmed brilliantly with memorable music.

John Wayne is at his best with John Ford, and Henry Fonda is brilliant too.A must see for all fans of Westerns and classic movies.

7.Mad Cows [1999] starring: Anna Friel, Joanna Lumley, Anna Massey, Phyllida Law, Greg Wise

VHS : Mad Cows [1999]
This is the first film that I`ve bought, that has n`t been based on either a review or, word of mouth recommendation. What a mistake!

I bought the DVD based on a, soft spot, for Anna Friel and to say that I was disappointed would be the understatement of the millennium. This film is poor from start to finnish and is so bad that I could n`t bring myself to view the DVD special features.

8.The Ghost And Mrs Muir [1947] starring: Gene Tierney, Rex Harrison, George Sanders, Edna Best, Vanessa Brown

VHS : The Ghost And Mrs Muir [1947]
There are soundtracks and there are orchestrations. "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" is neither. Some movies reach the haunting by cinematography, others by acting. "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir," requires neither. Herrmann does it all.

There is a strain of person who finds the melancholy the fairest flower for its deep emotion and sweet beauty, and there are those who have no sense of it whatsoever. If you are of the first persuasion, then this soundtrack will fill you with sublime longing as few other things can. In, "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir," Herrmann created a theme that surpasses this excellent film all on its own. It's a great movie, make no mistake, Gene Tierney shines above every other role she's played, however her foil isn't Rex Harrison at all; it's Herrmann's ... Read More:
