1.Carousel [1956] starring: Gordon MacRae, Shirley Jones, Cameron Mitchell, Barbara Ruick, Claramae Turner directed by: Henry King March 13, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.50
Regarded by many as the best Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, it still manages to pack a punch after all these years. Most people will probably already be familiar with the hymn-like standard 'You'll Never Walk Alone', but there are plenty of other gems here that are worth tuning in for. Fans of Frank Sinatra may recognise Billy's 'Soliloquy'. The scene on the beach where Gordon McRae belts it out is now a movie musicals' classic. My personal favourite is the beautifully tender duet 'If I Loved You', a song so loaded with the promise of romance and deeply felt regret all at the same time - surely (or Shirley??) one of the best love songs in any Broadway repertoire. Another of the musical's high points comes with the opening 'Carousel ... Read More:

2.Flight To Mars [1951] starring: Marguerite Chapman, Cameron Mitchell, Arthur Franz, Virginia Huston, John Litel directed by: Lesley Selander June 28, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £3.25
Futuristic spaceflight was so much easier back in 1951. No clumsy spacesuits and none of that weightlessness rigmarole. You just pull up in front of the rocket and climb on board in whatever you happen to be wearing at the time, lay down and put your belt on, and before you know it, you're in space. Sure, there's a short period of weightlessness, but that wasn't in the budget, so you don't have to worry about it. Look out for meteor storms, but it's not like they're going to sneak up on you because they make so much darn noise in space. Crash landing? No problem - that's what those leather helmets are for. You don't even have to worry about the atmosphere, temperature, etc., of the planet you crash on - just run out the door and have at it. ... Read More:

4.The Tomb [1985] starring: Cameron Mitchell, John Carradine, Richard Hench, Susan Stokey, David Pearson
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.15
If you our buying this film on the fact that Sybil danning is titled as a lead cast member then you will be sorely disappointed she is in it for about 3 mins a bad gun fight and that’s it gorgeous woman why she didn’t play a main part when they clearly used her name on the cover implying that she was the film it self is typical of the time mid eighties bad effects rushed story I would not recommend it.

7.The Professionals - Close Quarters / Everest Was Also Conquered / Klansman starring: Lee Marvin, Richard Burton, Cameron Mitchell, O.J. Simpson, Lola Falana directed by: Terence Young
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.24
The Klansman is pure White trash, with only a few hints at the more intriguing picture that Sam Fuller wanted to make before the producers went down the drive-in exploitation route and replaced him with Terence Young. Lee Marvin is reliably solid as the compromising sheriff, David Huddleston is a long way from Santa Claus as the local Grand Exalted Cyclops (and bank manager), but a drunk-as-a-skunk Richard Burton wiyav tha furni-assed Sowthun assent thess sigh-ed ov Cardiff is a sad sight as he shuffles from scene to scene as if barely aware he's in a movie. But then he'd probably have to have been blind drunk to have signed on to this one. Sample dialog: "Ay heyah he don' even hayav a teevee. He mus' be a commoonist!" But then, what else can you expect from a film ... Read More:

9.Hedwig And The Angry Inch [2001] starring: John Cameron Mitchell, Miriam Shor, Stephen Trask, Theodore Liscinski, Rob Campbell directed by: John Cameron Mitchell April 22, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.03
This movie is a musical, there is no denying that. It is an adaptation from an original off-broadway show which had some, but not great, critical success. Versions of it have been staged all over the world, albeit in small - sometimes amateur theatres. If muscials are your type of thing then great, but even if they aren't, this movie has so much more. It has a real heart. If you are looking for a movie about decency, humour, love and sacrifice - then look no further. This movie has to be one of my favourites of all time. The songs in it are not just musical numbers. They move the piece forward and give us insight into Hedwig's past and present feelings. They stand extreamely well on their own, but when placed into this medium of a fantastic story, with ... Read More:

10.The Jack Nicholson Westerns - The Shooting / Ride In The Whirlwind [1966] starring: Jack Nicholson, Cameron Mitchell, Millie Perkins, Katherine Squire, George Mitchell directed by: Monte Hellman
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £5.00
Absolutely amazing! You have to watch this film, if anything because it's just such a simple movie with a simple plot and very simple dialogue. By that I don't mean to say it isn't written well - on the contrary, that's precisely the reason why it is written well beacuse it is so simple. The language used in the movie, the dialogue between the characters seems very authentic indeed, and there isn't any hint of Sergio Leone stylisation of the dialogue at all. That's why it's so different and unique from other westerns. And this is a really cool additon to the western genre. Both Monte Hellman who directed the movie and co produced it along with Jack Nicholson who also wrote the damn thing can leave with their head held high. Honestly - it's shot beautifully, uses minimal ... Read More:
