Where The Red Fern Grows
Billy Coleman's dream is to have 'coon hounds, but his family is too poor to buy them for him, so he works hard to earn the money himself, and in so doing finds out what his Grandpa meant by "meeting God halfway". Old Dan and Little Anne are two Red Bone coonhounds, the incarnation of his childhood dream . . . and, as it turns out, the answere to his mother's prayers that God would take their family to a place where her childred could go to school, and to church, and build themselves a future. Billy is a good kid, and this movie is something the whole family can watch together and enjoy. To families with small children, I would reccomend this new version by Walt Disney over the older version. There is a sad part where a boy named Rubin falls on a hunting axe and dies, and another part where a Puma fights with Old Dan and injures him. In this newer version, these parts are soft-soaped, whereas in the older version, they can really freak you out. To adults and older children, I would reccomend the older version. The story just draws you in in a way this new one doesn't. The charactors have more depth, and the acting is convincing in such a way as to make you forget it IS acting. How interesting that even some of the kids who reviewed this movie seemed to notice the false note, and the dependancy on hill-billy music to achieve a feeling of authenticity . . . This younger generation is nobody's fool.

It was pretty good.
When I watched this movie,I cannot say I was moved.The lines were basically like the older one.But alot of mood and things were diffrent.I did not sense a strong bond between Billy Coleman and his coon dogs as I did in the older one.But in some other ways it was better.It was more family orientated and the acting and lines was performed well.

where the red fern grows!!!!!!
Stuart Dickison did such an amazing job as Rubin Pritchard.He was in great shape and he was a very very good actor. And he had tons of expression. I just want to let Stuart Dickison know that im proud of him. In the book they desribed Rubin as "mean,dirty,cruel" but in the movie Rubin was a sweetheart:) He's my favourite character in the movie! It was so sad when he fell on the ax, his funeral music was so sad:( Stuart you did such a great job, im proud of you, to me your the star actor:)

A reviewer in Florida
This tape went way too fast to understand or practice the moves. Being on VHS vice DVD made it too hard to back up and review the steps.Cuban style was covered on the cha-cha which was good and hand movement instruction on the waltz and rhumba were useful.

Doesn't really teach
If are interested in actually learning steps, I found this tape almost useless.The whole thing seems hurried and it doesn't really teach well.Probably the worst tape I've seen for that.I would see one use for thistape: after you've become an intermediate level dancer, this tape may giveyou some ideas on how to dance properly, to "flow."Theinstructors are obviously very skilled and professional.

Good tape
It covered about four different steps for each of six different dances and was quite clear and understandable. I think it's very useful as a beginning/intermediate tape.Read more

The Eyes REALLY DO Have It!
This video is terrific.It is not outdated.Trends always come back around! These are Donna's tips and secrets to a beautiful look.Buy it!You won't be sorry.

Classic and never out of date
Donna Mills' style of making her eyes up has NEVER gone out of style and it is still timeless in today's world of make-up.I just ordered this tape after renting it several times.She is a flawless beauty and everyone that enjoys wearing make-up will enjoy seeing how easy it is with her simple steps.You teenagers are correct - she is gorgeous and everyone should emulate her beauty, poise, and artistry!

This look...
This look has been called "outdated" and even laughable (the cucumber scene) but I am here to tell you, it is neither! I am a teenage girl who absolutely ADORES Donna Mills. I think that her makeup is FLAWLESS! The look is not outdated, Mrs. "A viewer from CA United States", her look is timeless. And, I pray every night that when I'm her age, I will look like her! I'm not saying that she's old, just that most people over forty don't look so great. Which she does. Neway, her look is perfect! ... Read more

How Many Directors Does It Take to Mess Up a Train Movie?
I was surprised to see Rob Lowe in this movie.Of course, Rob is one of the few good things in this movie that is yet another entry into the disaster genre.Unfortunately, there are so many problems with this movie's plot that the producer should have fired the technical advisor or the director that failed to listen to him.
Atomic Train changed my life!
My dad once told me, "son, a movie isn't a movie if someone doesn't get injured and/or killed by an owl." Last month I realized how incredibly true that is. I also realized my dad never said that.

Fay Wray monkeys around
The basic story is of Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong), who makes those cute little animal pictures that are going out of style. If he wants to stay in business he must add a female interest and some excitement. Circumstances forcing him to leave port quickly, he meets a girl Ann Darrow (Fay Wray), that is down on her luck and convinces her that he will make her a star (on the up and up).
Fay Wray screams her way into cinematic immortality
When Fay Wray paased away at the age of 96 every single notice of her death mentions the role that made her immortal as the beauty loved by the beast in the 1933 classic "King Kong." Wray had been noticed in a few films before that, such as Stroheim's "The Wedding March" (1928), "Thunderbolt" (1929), "Doctor X" (1932), "Mystery of the Wax Museum" (1933) and "The Vampire Bat" (1933). Then came her rendezvous with the biggest leading man in history and Fay Wray made her claim to the honor of being the greatest screamer in movie history.

DISAPPOINTING MIX OF CRIME, REINCARNATION, AND SWORDFIGHTING
Alright, not many people would expect much from such a movie starring Lorenxo Lamas in the first place. If that's how you feel this isn't disappointing at all.Read more

Editorial Review

Danny Aiello stars as a fiftysomething car salesman from Los Angeles who agrees to escort a voluptuous minor (Angelina Jolie) back to the desert trailer where her seductive mother (Anne Archer) and psychotic boyfriend (Michael Biehn) wait for her. Various misadventures follow: after the young people take off, Aiello dances with the older woman under the moonlight, falls asleep, finds a body in his car trunk the next morning, and is gradually absorbed into the boyfriend's paranoid delusions. The script by Leonard Glasser is a bit intoxicated with its own offbeat tone, and the direction by Kevin Dowling leaves something to be desired about this independent feature. But the fine cast helps make up for these deficiencies, and the Mojave desert locale is a fun and unusual setting in which to see this particular group of actors on screen. Read more

Best Beast movie ive seen
I saw this movie on dvd at sams club and I just had to have it.Beauty and the Beast is my favorite story.Since I got it Ive watched it over ten times a day.I just went and saw disney's Beauty and the Beast on broadway and it was nothing compared to the costumes, senery, music, and songs that are in this movie.I promise you that all people of all ages will fall in love with the beast just as I did when I was three and a half.

A gorgeous visual and musical tale of unselfish love
I showed this wonderful movie to my children about thirteen years agoand tried unsuccessfully for years to find our own copy.I was delighted to find it had been recently released as a DVD.The best part of the movie is the final scene (20), where lovely Rebecca DeMornay and handsome John Savage, dressed in marvelous Renaissance wedding clothes, sing a perfect love song to each other, "If You See with your Heart." Savage's marvelous voice blends wonderfully with DeMornay's. This is one of my favorite songs of all time because of the depth and compassion of the lyrics, combined with a moving and memorable melody.The lyrics are so outstanding and beautiful, that I had written them down years ago and still have them.This is a delightful children's movie that I'm proud to share with my five chidren.Thank you, John Savage, Rebecca DeMornay and composer and lyricist of the love song.God bless you and your loved ones.

THIS IS THE BEST LIVE ACTION VERSION OF BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
OMG! I adore this movie. My parents taped it off tv for me way back when. I still remember the whole thing! Would someone please put all of the canon movie tales on dvd! They made the best faerie tale movies of the 80's! Of all time as far as I'm concerned. They had excellent acting, good plots, and catchy music that still sticks in my head even after years of not hearing it. Please! Oh Please put these movies on DVD!!!! I've met sooo many people recently that remember these movies well and we all want to see them again!!!!! Please put them on DVD!!!! ... Read more

Overpriced and poor content
There are only 2 segments in this tape.The first concerns another person creating a French Braid (using the Dutch Braid method) on a model's blond hair.The other section shows another person braiding her own hair.Save your money.My tape squeaked all the way through.There weren't enough angles used in filming the braiding process.Would suggest BRAIDING BEAUTIFUL - also available at Amazon.com as a far better choice.For a truly gorgeous braiding video BEGINNING HAIR BRAIDING taught by Karen Ribble is tops -- if Amazon can get it. I've been braiding my waist length hair for over 30 years -- and was very disappointed with this tape.

Great Video!
I watched this video some time ago and was amazed at how easy it was tofrench braid my own hair while watching it!I have been doing it eversince and have many ask me how I did it.Read more
