Sergeant York
List Price: $19.98 Now Only: $17.99 You Save: $ 1.99 (10%)

Gary Cooper plays Alvin York, the real-life country lad and sharpshooter drafted to fight during World War I but blocked from killing by his pacifist sentiments. Howard Hawks makes a rousing, heroic film out of the tale, and Cooper gives one of his best performances (for which he won an Oscar). The 1941 feature seems as much a valentine to wartime America (and a not-so-subtle piece of propaganda) as anything, with Hawks capturing splendidly shot scenes of life in York's home state of Tennessee, which in turn provide a striking contrast to the battlefield. A key scene in the film, in which York is presented with an argument in favor of killing in war, is still thought provoking. --Tom Keogh. |

The Slipper and the Rose
Price: $69.95
Category: VHS Movies
Publisher: Image Entertainment Starring: Rosalind Ayres, Roy Barraclough, Tim Barrett, Geoffrey Bayldon, Norman Bird Prices subject to change. Please verify pricing during checkout. |
|
The Slipper and the Rose is a grand musical adventure in the tradition of The Sound of Music and My Fair Lady. This lavish production features Richard Chamberlain in a spirited retelling of the classic Cinderella fairy tale, and the Academy Award-nominated score is provided by the Oscar-winning song-writing duo the Sherman Brothers (Mary Poppins, The Jungle Book, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang). The Slipper and the Rose is a brilliant mix of fantasy and realism that will enchant viewers of all ages. No musical collection would be complete without this romantically delightful film. |

Panther
Price: $86.90
Category: VHS Movies
Publisher: Polygram Video Starring: Joe Don Baker, Angela Bassett, Bobby Brown, Marcus Chong, Richard A. Dysart Prices subject to change. Please verify pricing during checkout. |
|
This simple-minded account of the Black Panther Party is insulting to anybody who ever admired the positive qualities of the organization or at the very least took their militancy seriously. Melvin Van Peebles wrote the thin script, and son Mario directs it with little of the penetrating and expansive sensibility necessary to understand the subject in its broadest context. The presence of a big cast with a lot of familiar names and faces--including real-life Panther contemporaries Jerry Rubin and Dick Gregory--give the project a false air of importance. --Tom Keogh. |

Barfly
Price: $72.99
Category: VHS Movies
Publisher: Warner Home Video Starring: Mickey Rourke, Faye Dunaway, Alice Krige, Jack Nance, J.C. Quinn Directed By: Barbet Schroeder Prices subject to change. Please verify pricing during checkout. |
|
The script for this movie was written by outrageous poet-author-alcoholic Charles Bukowski. But director Barbet Schroeder makes it into an oddly amusing story of a pugnacious drunk writer (Mickey Rourke) based on Bukowski himself. Rourke spends almost all of his time at the bar, struggling with sobriety (he's against it) and, occasionally, having fistfights with the bartender (Frank Stallone). He meets another souse, a formerly attractive woman (Faye Dunaway), and gets involved with her, which means they drink copious amounts of liquor and try to have sex. |
