"Set your WABAC machine for 1960, and the further misadventures of Rocket J. Squirrel and Bullwinkle J. Moose, the most illustrious citizens of Frostbite Falls, MN (population: 48; and that's during the summer rush). This four-disc set contains seven full-length serials, several of which loom large in the Rocky & Bullwinkle canon, including "Upsidasium," "Metal Munching Mice," and "Greenpernt Oogle," with the rare, reclusive oogle bird ( ..."
"It's season 3 on DVD for the first time. This deluxe packaging includes 4 DVD's in original broadcast order. Exclusive bonus features include a sneek peak at season 4 and Best Of Bullwinkle Follies."
"Top Hat Even the best Fred and Ginger musicals are merely lavish excuses for some of the most elegant dancing ever put on screen, and Top Hat is no exception. The story is a silly but timeless tale of mistaken identity that compounds itself to extremes. Fred Astaire is the famous American hoofer Jerry Travers, in London preparing for a new show with his befuddled producer Horace Hardwick (the always entertaining Edward Everett Horton) w ..."
"You'll Love The Way Fred and Ginger Look Tonight in the 5-film, 5-Disc Astaire and Rogers Collection Volume One, including the highly acclaimed Top Hat and Swing Time."
"The chemistry between Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers was still going strong in their seventh spin around the dance floor, Shall We Dance? And this time--amid the usual improbable plot confusions and on-again, off-again flirting between the two, they were backed up by a song score provided by the matchless George and Ira Gershwin. Among the highlights are "They All Laughed", "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off", and the Oscar-nominated "They ..."
"The girl they called "Winnipeg's Sweetheart," Deanna Durbin, captured the hearts of movie fans everywhere with her irresistible charm and golden voice. From her debut in 1939 to the release of her last film in 1944, Deanna was an international superstar and box-office sensation. Then at the height of her fame, she walked away from Hollywood forever. Now her movie magic lives on in this special 6-film set, Deanna Durbin Sweetheart Pack. ..."
"Now here's something you don't see everyday, Chauncey. It's the complete first season of one of television's smartest, savviest, and most subversively funny animated series, ranked by TV Guide as one of the top 50 series of all time. Like the animators at Warner Bros.' Termite Terrace (birthplace of Porky, Daffy, and Bugs), producer Jay Ward, his partner Bill Scott (the voice of Bullwinkle), and the cracked writing staff did not write ..."
"Ärger im Paradies ist eine US-amerikanische Komödie von Regisseur-Legende und Oscar-Preisträger Ernst Lubitsch (1892-1947). Der Film aus dem Jahr 1932 war der Lieblingsfilm des Regisseurs und ist exemplarisch für den so genannten Lubitsch Touch . Damit gelang es ihm, anzügliche Situationen und sexuelle Anspielungen taktvoll und mit klugem Witz weitgehend unbehelligt auf die Leinwand zu bringen. Das Liebes- und Diebespaar Gaston (Herbe ..."
"Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz. Lucy makes up an Indian war dance in The Adagio," dupes Ricky into performing at a women's function in The Benefit," babysits bratty twins to pay for an expensive dress in The Amateur Hour" and then Lucy Plays Cupid." 1951/b&w/104 min/NR. "
"Howard Hughes produced this first film version of the Ben Hecht-Charles MacArthur play, fresh from its wildly successful Broadway engagement; it's at once a close transcription of the stage piece and, under Lewis Milestone's aggressively inventive direction (which includes using a bouncing camera to underline the rapid-fire dialogue), a typically eccentric, anything-goes bit of early sound filmmaking. Pat O'Brien, in one of his first fi ..."
"Frank Capra a réalisé ce film en 1941, avant de mettre ses talents de cinématographe à la disposition de l'implication militaire américaine de la Deuxième Guerre, mais il n'a été distribué dans les salles qu'en 1944. Adaptée d'une pièce triomphale de Joseph Kesselring, cette frénétique comédie noire illustre parfaitement le sens du rythme et de l'ambiance du maître Capra. Josephine Hull et Jean Adair reprennent leurs rôles tenus à ..."
"Fans of classic movie musicals will be in heaven with two five-video sets of the films of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, the quintessential dancing duo. In this second set, the pair is no longer restricted to frothy comedy revolving around mistaken identities; they occasionally explore deeper emotional threads with a bit of heartbreak. The first film is one many consider their most enjoyable, Swing Time, a dashing combination of great ..."
"In 1941, when Frank Capra filmed Arsenic and Old Lace, he was in the midst of his string of social-concern pictures. So this uncharacteristic property must have seemed like a vacation; it's a straight farce, played at full tilt and closely adapted from the Broadway play. Almost all of the action takes place on a single set: the old home of the Brewster sisters (Josephine Hull and Jean Adair), those dear, dotty old ladies who mix up a ve ..."
"The year before, in 1933, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers had grabbed America's attention in Flying Down to Rio, even though they were the second bananas in that film. The duo had a certain chemistry--Fred with his lighter-than-air elegance, Ginger with her moxie--and studio heads gambled that they could carry a starring vehicle of their own. Nobody guessed there would be another eight movies together after The Gay Divorcee, which turned ..."

"One of the most sophisticated films in the Josef von Sternberg-Marlene Dietrich canon, The Devil Is a Woman is an alluring romance about a cold-hearted temptress who destroys the lives of two best friends (Cesar Romero and Lionel Atwill) during the Spanish revolution. What do you expect? It's carnival week in the port town of Seville. Supposedly this film was Dietrich's personal favorite because of the way it captured her beauty. Intere ..."
