Goodbye Mr Chips [1939]

starring: Robert Donat, Greer Garson, Terry Kilburn, John Mills, Paul Henreid
directed by: Sam Wood

Release Date February 16, 2004
This is one of my all-time favourite films. The exquisite, and occasionally poignant, story of a public school teacher (Mr Chipping - played wonderfully by Robert Donat) who is brought out of his stuffy mediocrity by his new young wife. We share the harsh reality of life's tribulations, including the generations of boys that pass through the school and the many young men who eagerly go off to war, never to return. The supporting cast are really wonderful, particularly Greer Garson and Paul Henreid. This is a sentimental film, but truly heartwarming. Highly recommended.

starring: Gary Cooper, Ingrid Bergman, Akim Tamiroff, Arturo de Córdova, Vladimir Sokoloff
directed by: Sam Wood

Release Date November 10, 2003
"Because I am involved in mankind;
and therefore send to know
for who the bell tolls.
It tolls for thee."

Spain 1937. Robert Jordan (Gary Cooper) came to Spain o fight for "The Republic" (a nice way to say for the commies) and against nationalists. He also had a dislike for Germans and Italians. His assignment was to go behind the nationalist lines and blow up a bridge at a strategic moment. There this stoic hero meets a peasant girl (a much too young for Gary, Ingrid Bergman) with a bad haircut and that barely escaped a train ride. They naturally fall in love which complicates things. Will this jeopardize the mission? Do we care?

Along with this we have the classic mixture of characters that you can not tell if they are the ... Read More:

A Day at the Races [region 2]

starring: Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Margaret Dumont
directed by: Sam Wood

Release Date
Superb comedy that puts our heroes in a sanitorium to help out owner O'Sullivan and an ailing Dumont. Groucho is the doctor brought in to help things along and it equals hilarious results. He and Chico share a wonderful sequence at the racetrack with Chico, in need of quick cash, looking for a sucker to con...Groucho just happened to walk by. The telephone scene between Groucho (as numerous voices) and Leonard Ceeley is also priceless. Allan Jones appears as O'Sullivan's love interest and even sings a bit. A bit too much for me, but he still sings lovely. The long dance numbers are uninspired and lose the comic flavor after a few minutes. We get it back in the wooing scene between Groucho and beautiful Esther Muir and in the rollicking good finale. The film, under Wood's direction, ... Read More:

Kings Row [1941] (REGION 1) (NTSC)

starring: Ann Sheridan, Robert Cummings, Ronald Reagan, Betty Field, Charles Coburn
directed by: Sam Wood

Release Date August 15, 2006
It's the turn of the century. Parris Mitchell (Robert Cummings) and Drake McHugh (Ronald Reagan) are best friends growing up in the town of Kings Row, a small town that likes to call itself "A good clean town, a good town to live in, and a good place to raise your children." They're both orphans being raised by others and who pal around with three other friends. This is the story of what happens to the five of them as they become adults, particularly Parris and Drake.

When I'm really hungry late at night and go to raid the refrigerator, sometimes, way in the back, I find a piece of cheese that I'd forgotten and which has become so ripe and soft and flavorful I can hardly wait to take a bite. I feel exactly the same way about Kings Row. I can't really explain why I like ... Read More:
