| 1. The French Connection | 
| Starring: Gene Hackman, Roy Scheider, Fernando Rey, Tony Lo Bianco, Marcel Bozzuffi
Directed By: William Friedkin
February 01, 2005
The color scheme that was used for this Blu-ray product looks unnatural and is not true to the original film. The color changes are so pathetic that the Blu-ray production should be called "The French Disconnection"... more

| Starring: Thomas Abbott, G.W. Bailey, Tom Berenger, Margarita Calahorra, Jim Carter
May 11, 2004
I know what the critics say but if you want a cleverly put together romp, don't miss this one. Sit back and enjoy the tongue in cheek take on all the old westerns.
Tom Berenger is Rex O'Herlihan the Singing Cowboy, who, along with his horse, Wildfire, rides town to town (carting his portable armoire with all necessary "Good Guy" paraphernalia such as 6 guitars, 10 hats, ironing board etc). All... more

Excellent acting on the part of Gene Hackman. A great deal of suspense throughout. It was a great climax to French Connection I. You can't see the First Part without seeing the Second. ... more

| | 5. The Adventurers |
| Starring: Charles Aznavour, Alan Badel, Candice Bergen, Thommy Berggren, Delia Boccardo
Directed By: Lewis Gilbert
July 12, 2005
This movie came out in 1970 and I enjoyed it greatly as a college freshman. It was a very revealing hot film even if it was not a financial or critical success. I decided to take a second look after 40 years and despite the criticism, the film really is good entertainment. It is an extremely ambitious film, full of characters, and full of European jet set dynamics and South American politics. The... more

| | 6. Moon Over Parador | 
| Starring: Richard Dreyfuss, Raul Julia, Sonia Braga, Jonathan Winters, Dana Delany
Directed By: Paul Mazursky
August 03, 2004
Rahm cut his formidable teeth on this all-but-forgotten, beautiful, farcical, little charade concerning the grim realities of life as a political actor. It is not, I assure you, an easy role to play. Pressure pulling on you from every side making you feel like your skin's about to be torn from your face at any second, your ability to think fast on your toes the only thing between you and certain death... more

| | 7. That Obscure Object of Desire - Criterion Collection |
| Starring: Fernando Rey, Carole Bouquet, Ángela Molina, Julien Bertheau, André Weber
Directed By: Luis Buñuel
November 20, 2001
I'm not saying that this movie isn't light-years better than most of the crap that's being produced by mainstream filmmakers. I applaud the efforts on the part of all concerned to make a sensitive, mature, *serious* movie.
But that being said, if one were to hold this movie up to the standard of a "serious" movie, for me anyway, it lacks a great deal.
Let's start with the... more

Still pining for his wife who died on their wedding night, Don Jaime is struck by Viridiana's resemblance to her. He drugs Viridiana and attempts to rape her. Later on Don Jaime confesses to her what he tried to do, but soon hangs himself, humiliated by his own atrocious behavior. Viridiana in
Even though Viridiana is very controversial because of its harsh attack against the Catholic Church, the film is very artistic and makes a very good point: "Don't expect that God will help you if you do nothing to help yourself."... more
