Be aware, this is the 4:3, not the Widescreen version! Easy to buy it by mistake as 99.9% of DVDs are widescreen!

... and one that far too many people haven't heard of. I believe that this was conventionally animated, when CGI was taking an increasing share of the market. Perhaps because it didn't have the high-definition quality of the Pixar films (think Nemo) Disney never seemed to do much to promote it. However, what it lacked in that area is more than made up for in outstandingly funny script and characterisation - the old-school values of animation. "I've turned into a cow. Can I be excused?" Yeah, the tale is a little hackneyed - an odd couple who need to learn to get along to overcome their enemy - but it is just sooooo funny. I have never been fussed about the "modern classics" like "Beauty and the Beast" or even "The Little ... Read More:

4.The Borrowers [1997] starring: John Goodman, Mark Williams, Jim Broadbent, Celia Imrie, Flora Newbigin directed by: Peter Hewitt October 09, 2000
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
Unlike the superb BBC serialisation that was faithfully based on Mary Norton's book from the 50's, this film has been updated and an American TV star brought in. Unfortunately the script and plot isn't really quite as good as the original book and the out of place slapstick does reduce the tension somewhat. My son (9) and daughter (11) really liked this film, but I preferred the two BBC 'borrowers' series, first screened in 1993 and 1994 (make sure you get the two DVD set, series one and two - 6 hours of quality children's TV). The BBC series is far darker, being played straight with no slapstick and despite the Borrower's amusing antics and the witty script, it's got many quite tense moments and is all the better for it. The special effects in the film (and ... Read More:

5.O Brother, Where Art Thou? [2000] starring: George Clooney, John Turturro, Tim Blake Nelson, John Goodman, Holly Hunter directed by: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen November 05, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.09
I've seen this movie several times now and I'm still fascinated by it - I'm no particular fan of George Clooney or the Coen brothers or Bluegrass music (or even of Homer), but this movie is so cleverly constructed and well acted, with multiple threads that hang and re-cross throughout the story, that each time I watch I see a connection I missed in previous viewings. Reading the other reviews I guess I must be the only ageing Blues fan out here - but Robert Johnson must be up there (sorry, down there) somewhere, smiling if he's seen it.

6.Sweet Dreams [1986] starring: Jessica Lange, Ed Harris, Ann Wedgeworth, David Clennon, James Staley directed by: Karel Reisz April 15, 1996

these songs sound terrific remixed! Who better to do the remixing then Owen Bradley, who produced the original tracks. There are those who bemoan that the songs have been remixed, but the original versions are available in pristine form elsewhere. These are slight variations on the originals, and the result is a freshening up of the terrific performances. If you love Patsy Cline's music, you'll love this recording!

7.True Stories [1986] starring: David Byrne\|John Goodman\|Annie McEnroe\|Jo Harvey Allen
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £3.39
I have always loved True Stories, but it's not for everyone. This is one ingenious but quirky movie that plays on multiple levels all at the same time. The box cover describes True Stories as "a completely cool, multi-purpose movie," and that's about as good a description as there can be for a film almost impossible to describe. The film takes the form of a documentary of the sesquicentennial celebration in Virgil, Texas, with Talking Heads front man David Byrne cruising into town in his red convertible to narrate the events. Byrne is, in my opinion, an underappreciated genius, and what he managed to do here was to capture a wonderful slice of Americana. Virgil isn't a small town, but it has a small town feel, surrounded by flat land as far as the eye can see ... Read More:

8.David Kellogg - Vanilla Ice - Cool As Ice [1991] starring: Vanilla Ice, Kristin Minter, Deezer D, John Newton (II), Naomi Campbell directed by: David Kellogg July 01, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £24.00
I have seen this film hundreds of times and never get bored with it. This film has everything fighting for honour, rapping, love and a brilliant story line. It is a must buy film as the acting is top notch and the bikes are lovely too.

9.The Jungle Book 2 [2003] starring: John Goodman, Haley Joel Osment, Mae Whitman, Connor Funk, Bob Joles directed by: Steve Trenbirth September 08, 2003

I was pretty entertained by this sequel. What I found most impressive was the excellent voice-over work. I have gone back and checked what the deal was and found it very interesting that both the Winnie the Pooh crews (new and old) were very much involved in the Jungle Books. Kaa the snake was my main interest, being done by the same voice over guy who now does Winnie the Pooh (Jim Cummings). Just as the original Kaa the snake, Sterling Holloway, was also the same guy who did the original Winnie voice . The other was the Black Panther, Bageera, originally done by Mr. French of Family Affair, the great Sebastian Cabot... now being done so well by Bob Joles who also narrates the Winnie series these days, just as Mr Cabot did in his day.

10.The Big Easy [1987] starring: Dennis Quaid, Ellen Barkin, Ned Beatty, John Goodman, Lisa Jane Persky directed by: Jim McBride March 08, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £1.79
Cutting the final scene was idiotic! The thriller element was only ever a vehicle for the romance to which you're now ROBBED of a satisfying conclusion. Skip this atrocity until it's re-issued whole - which it's bound to be - the seduction scene between Quaid / Barkin is consistantly voted one of the best 'sex scenes' on film. Menawhile borrow the complete (VHS) version if you have a way to watch it & try the soundtrack or even better visit New Orleans itself...
