The Forsyte Saga, Series 2 from Acorn Media Publishi Price: $35.99 Customer Review:  Once again I must compare the acting and directing of this new version of the Saga with the original version of 1969.ALL of the characters in the new version are miscast.Soames is portrayed as too mean and too wooden.Young Jo is too young and uncharacteristically cruel.Irene is listless and... |

Maurice - The Merchant Ivory Collection from Home Vision Entertainment Price: $23.96 Customer Review: This is the story of the love that dared not speak its name during the time it couldn't speak. Maurice is the title character of an E.M. Forster novel that Forster himself opted not to have published until after his death, due to the content. James Wilby and a then-unknown Hugh Grant star in this... |

The Last King - The Power and the Passion of Charles II from A & E Home Video Price: $22.46 Customer Review: "The Last King" showcases the often-disputed kingship of Charles the Second. This movie is made with the introspection and lyricism found on the stage while bringing to that the professional look and feel of the big screen. But most impressively, this A&E production is fair to the universe of... |

Bent from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Price: $13.46 Customer Review:  In today's world of multi-million-dollar-budget films it's easy to develop high expectations. We're accustomed now to realities whose sights and sounds have been tweaked by talent and technology to perfection--we see exactly what the director hoped we would, rather than settling for less-impressive,... |

Damage from New Line Home Entertainment Price: $22.48 Customer Review: The story is seen entirely from Fleming's viewpoint. (If there is any guilt on the fiancee's part, she doesn't show it.) Fleming is a leading Conservative MP, likely to take over a Cabinet post as minister of health in the next re-shuffle. I feel the author, Josephine Hart, decided to give him that... |

The Madness of King George from MGM/UA Video Price: $17.98 Customer Review: This is a marvelous period piece that deals with an intriguing subject: the apparently intermittent madness of King George III. Nigel Hawthorne brilliantly plays the role of the King, creating a benevolent personage, a sort of aristocratic populist, who is, at heart, a family man. Yet, he... |

A Handful of Dust from Warner Home Video Price: $17.98 Customer Review: Brenda (Kristin Scott Thomas) and Tony Last (James Wilby) live at Hetton--the magnificent ancestral home of the Last family. Tony dotes on their only child--a son--James Andrew. Life at Hetton is fairly predictable, and Brenda is clearly bored by it all, and yet she doesn't display her boredom... |

Pride from BBC Price: $13.48 Customer Review: Not since "Born Free" has a movie given such breadth, such tension and hope. We are privileged to following the breathless perils of Suki and Linus, a precocious pair of lion cubs as they continually get in trouble with every conceivable danger surrounding them- they encounter enough adventures to... |

Cleopatra from Hallmark Home Entertainment Price: $9.98 Customer Review: Margaret George wrote the extraordinary novel (THE MEMOIRS OF CLEOPATRA) that this video is based on. After reading this book, which was the most incredible read I've had in years, I became worried when I heard that it was to be filmed as a two-part miniseries. My concerns were justified after... |

Mrs. Dalloway from Fox Lorber Price: $17.98 Customer Review: Mrs. Dalloway This British period-drama is based on the book by Virginia Woolf, a fact that comes before any of the actors or the director needs to be mentioned. This is because the fundamental flaw of this film is that it seems rooted in its original format. In between the dialouge (probably... |
