. Mary and Joseph:Story of Faith
City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS
starring: Tuvia Tavi, Liron Nirgad, Stephen McHattie, Murray Matheson, Jeff Eastdirected by: Eric Till
September 29, 1998
I first saw this movie on television when I was a child. The story of the birth of Christ having always been my favorite in the Bible, I was thrilled to see it acted out. This movie gives you a 'what might have been' view of the lives of Mary and Joseph, something that the bible failed to give. Mary and Joseph where a young couple deeply in love, but the discovery of Mary's pregnency, plus Joseph's involvment with the Zelot's, almost drove them apart. We also get a look into the lives of Elizabeth and Zacarias, the parents of St. John. This movie give a completely human view of all characters in what is the most famous story in history.

. Operation Pacific
City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS
starring: John Wayne, Patricia Neal, Ward Bond, Scott Forbes (II), Philip Careydirected by: George Waggner
April 28, 1998
Since I grew up with this movie, I have seen it at least 30 times. This is one of the best Submarine Movies of WW-II action made. And not everyone knows this but this movie did deal with some truth. When the skipper is shot by a "Q" ship in a surface attack, he uses the command "Take Her Down" which was in actuality used by the CO of the USS Growler, after being critically wounded in action in 1942. And the torpedo trouble in the movie was also true and they did drop warheads from on high to test out various firing options. One submarine mentioned in the Movie was the Corvina, which really was a USN Sub, and she was suck by a Japanese Submarine like the movie portrays. Unlike other Sub Movies, this one has a lot of truth in it and is an excellent ... Read More:

. Mumfie-the Movie
City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS
from: Paramount Home Video
July 17, 2001
My daughter and I have watched this video many times and are delighted every time. It's so wonderful to watch something today that actually promotes goodness and kindness. Mumfie is a lovely character who collects friends wherever he goes.. And also gets into many misadventures inspite of his goodness. It's a long film and worth every second. I highly recommend and I am a video distributor and have seem zillions of films...But this is one of my favorite family/childrens films.

I saw a small part of this movie on the Internet, and from what I saw, it was pretty good. I just wish I could see the whole movie! The gymnastic sequences were very well done, although some of the editing was pretty bad. If you can get your hands on this movie, than I think you should see it, because it deserves to be seen.

. Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull's History Lesson
City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS
starring: Paul Newman, Joel Grey, Kevin McCarthy, Harvey Keitel, Allan F. Nichollsdirected by: Robert Altman
September 01, 1998
This is a quirky take on white/native relations in the late 19th/early 20th century, a mad mix of historical fact and whimsical fiction. Newman is masterful as the addled demagogue into which Buffalo Bill has morphed. I recommend this film for students enrolled in our college's AMERICAN WEST class; it is provocative fodder for good discussion, good writing on alternative views of history. Robert Altman fans will recognize stock characters from his other films, but will be entertained (perhaps delighted) throughout.

. The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean
City Travel Guides > VHS > VHS
starring: John Huston, Paul Newman, Roy Jenson, Gary Combs, Fred Brookfielddirected by: John Huston
August 02, 1993
The 60's and early 70's produced several great comedic westerns i.e. Cheyenne Social Club, Dirty Dingus Magee, McClintock, Great Scout, The Rounders, Evil Roy Slade, Support Your Local, etc. The list goes on and on. Those movies were all great, but pretty much one dimensional and set the tone for some collective disappointment over the content of Judge Roy Bean. There are some great hilarious moments in this film but I never really got it until recently. It's actually a love story above all else, and a comedy, as well as John Huston's own statement about the retreating old west. If you view it in that context you'll be very impressed. If you're looking for pure comedy you may find that it drags in moments. However, this is the last time you'll get to see ... Read More:
