Joan Hickson is by far the best actor to play Miss Marple. She plays the part as it is depicted in the books. None of the others so far has... more

I bought Hammer collectors set vol 1. It is a disappointment. The rave reviews about the content and the restoration is over stated. The pictures are clear but the sound is scratch. It is disconcerting to put an american actor with an all english cast (they speaking in a heavy accent) and the protagist speaking perfect american english. The statement that VCI has remastered and restored this movies... more

February 24, 2004
So far I have watched two Miss Marple episodes. Mirror Cracked was fine, though all have suffered from faded colors over time. Caribbean Mystery was fine except for a 5-10 minute section in which the audio was about 1 second out of sync with the video, which was really annoying. Luckily it flipped back to normal on its own after a few minutes, and I could concentrate on the story once again. I... more

I love watching these mysteries, especially between basketball & football dead season. I plan to purchase more Agatha Christie. I can't wait to get Prime Suspect also. I ordered the complete series. The only suggestion I have is that Amazon make available Poirot-The Complete Collection (all 11 series). This DVD is already available in Europe. I hope we can get it here in the States soon... more

| | 10. Heavens Above! |
| Starring: Peter Sellers, Cecil Parker, Isabel Jeans, Ian Carmichael, Bernard Miles
Directed By: Roy Boulting, John Boulting
January 21, 2003
This film is doubly satisfying - fine, understated British comedy plus a serious treatment of applying Christianity practically.
The Sellers role, a priest completely devoted to Jesus' social justice gospel, closely parallels Jesus' own life - humble beginnings, complete faith in service, sudden notoriety, betrayal and ascension into the heavens. He is outwardly a failure but inwardly... more
