From the Terrace is one of Paul Newman's lesser-known films, but it's a worthy showcase for the actor's developing screen persona. Like Butterfield 8, this is a slick, prestigious adaptation of a John O'Hara novel, about loose morals and forbidden love among the wealthy elite. Director Mark Robson lacks the mastery of melodrama that Douglas Sirk would've brought to this material, but he's still on target with O'Hara's tale of a prodigal son (Newman) who rejects his late father's steel mill in favor of big-business conquest, only to find his trophy wife (superbly played by Newman's off-screen wife, Joanne Woodward) straying into the arms of her former fiancé, while he falls in love with a socialite (Ina Balin) with whom he's much more compatible. A well-tuned drama of marital discord and unchecked ambition, From the Terrace was sharply adapted by Ernest Lehman between the triumphs of North by Northwest and West Side Story, and Newman's brooding performance gave him a solid boost to his iconic role in the 1961 classic The Hustler. --Jeff Shannon

Description

Paul Newman portrays a young man whose struggle for success threatens his personal happiness, in this well-scripted screen version of John O'Hara's best-selling novel. Having never known his father's love or respect, Alfred Eaton (Newman) sets out to prove himself in the business world. Marrying the "right" woman (Joanne Woodward), he works unceasingly, but is ultimately confronted with crises and choices that force him to rethink his priorities. Co-starring Myrna Loy as Alfred's alcoholic mother, Leon Ames as his embittered father, and Ina Balin as the woman who might bring him genuine happiness, From The Terrace is an absorbing tale of ambition, power and love fueled by sharp dialogue, complex characterizations and keen insight into the human heart.

Good Stuff!.......2007-05-07

Though I'm sure this was Quite racy in its day, the ideas and ideals expressed are just as relative to today's world and people. What priorties do we set in our own lives? Who suffers from our failures? And are we prepared to accept the consequences of our actions and desicions?

Good stuff!

Gift for Grandma.......2007-03-30

My grandmother mentioned that she loves this film. Of course, I had to find it for her. She called me as soon as she received it and said she was watching it that very moment and she couldn't thank me enough.

Striff.......2007-01-19

From The Terrace is excellant. Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward are always great together, but Ina Balin is sexy and very much in love with Paul. Joanne really plays the spoiled wife at her very best, and Paul drops everything for Ina. A good story, will keep you interested from the first glance. (I am a romantic!) This movie was a gift to a friend, she thanked me highly!!

From the Terrace.......2007-01-12

My favorite movie, Paul Newman at his best, Joanne Woodward a steely ice maiden.

Despite your best efforts, you often become your parents.......2007-01-12

I didn't see what other reviewers apparently saw in this film. I did not see the moral of the film so much concerning the price of success as it being that despite your best efforts, you are often doomed to become your parents. At the beginning of the film, Alfred returns home after the second World War to renounce his father because he has, in Alfred's opinion, ignored his mother while strictly attending to business to the point where his mother has become an adulterous lush. Ten or fifteen years later, Alfred has ignored his own wife while climbing the corporate ladder until his own lonely wife has become an adulterous lush. The only crime of his father's he does not commit is to produce offspring that can be dragged into the mess his life has become. One person with a more warped moral code than either Alfred or Mary seems to be Alfred's boss. While eating lunch he casually informs Alfred of Mary's affair with an old flame. When Alfred reacts by saying that he intends to divorce Mary, his boss warns him against such an action. To Alfred's boss, Mary's behavior isn't a moral failing or a cry for attention - it is an unforgivable breach of etiquette. Overall, the main characters in this film lack redeeming characteristics to the point where the movie almost becomes a film noir soap opera. There are still solid performances by both Newman and Woodward, and it is still worth seeing 47 years after it was made. After all, the idle rich and the mistakes they keep making over and over have not changed that much after nearly half a century.

In yet another of a long line of lame Blake Edwards's films in the 1980s, John Ritter stars as a compulsive womanizer trying to get his impulses under control as he seeks to reconcile with his ex-wife. But his gonads get the better of him every time, and they also get the better of the jokes here, which are distinctly few and far between. Indeed, the film has only one sure laugh, a rather tasteless scene involving a darkened room, glow-in-the-dark condoms, and two men, neither of whom realizes the other is there until the lights go out and they've stripped for action. --Marshall Fine

Customer Reviews:

Comedy Classic..........2007-02-22

They just dont make em like this anymore... too many "polictically correct" lighthearts out there that complain when they think a movie is going to offend someone or something. Blake Edwards is a great director, and John Ritter was perfect for the part. I had been waiting for this movie to be released on DVD, as I remembered watching it when it first came out nearly 18 years ago.

Dragged in several places...........2006-09-12

Fell asleep while watching this movie, twice! It started out well enough, but then kept getting bogged down with all the scenes where he just talks to the bartender or to the shrink.

Never would have rented it except to see Robert Dowdell (VTTBOTS) in a bit part....

Skin Deep.......2006-02-23

Great old movie from my past. Language is a little harsh for some people, but very entertaining anyway. Will make you laugh. Not a movie for the kids.

Skin deep comedy.......2005-12-04

One of the finest films of Blake Edwards since Victor / Victoria. John Ritter ( splendid here ) incarnates a womanizer and alcoholic famous writer who is in a bad professional moment and still in love with his ex-wife in this sarcastic non-stylished battle-of-the-sexes comedy that combines brilliant sight-gags and clever dialogues and return to us the best Edwards ( A shot in the dark ; The party ; The Pink Panther strikes back ). An intelligent comedy conceived as it was the confessional visual diary of his protagonist, strategy that allows Edwards to integrate a collection of funny sketches that work autonomously inside a solid narrative structure.

another lost classic.......2005-10-01

This is another film which seems to have gotten lost or forgotten about as time passes but is yet one of those movies where most people who have seen it think it was hysterical. What also suprised me was that at the time of John Ritter's such unfortunate passing very little reference was ever made to this film. The only mention of it was in lists of previous works, but yet was one of his best and most complete performances.
Ritter steals the show in the blackest of black comedy's by the master of humor Blake Edwards. Playing an alcoholic, womanizing, divorced, middleaged, selfish washed up writer.
This film shows the dark side of life through the ligher side of self destruction. Ritter offers non-stop laughs with several scenes of full flat out physical comedy. There are several scenes (as others too have said) which I have watched over and over knowing the outcome but unable to get enough of the delivery.
A true black comedy combined with all the slapstick humor anyone could ever want!

Description

The Bette Davis Collection includes 3 new-to-DVD classics, featuring Davis in multiple Emmy-nominated performances as a captivating adulteress, a manipulative beauty, and a former Oscar-winning actress recovering from the end of her career.

Amazon.com

Even in the 21st century, very few film stars create and define their own genre--and certainly not in the complete way Bette Davis did. The Bette Davis Collection gives an exceptionally good survey of essential Bette, with four of the five films absolute knock-down classics from her long reign at Warner Bros. Davis's personality was so strong that she tended to overpower her directors, but William Wyler was one of the few to maintain his own distinctive style with her, and The Letter (1940) is a triumph for both of them. At a humid Malaysian plantation, Davis kills a man in the brilliant opening sequence, and the remainder is a darkly suggestive unraveling of the complicated explanation.

Dark Victory (1939) and Now, Voyager (1942) would be on anybody's list of most representative Davis pictures. In the former, she's a doomed heiress nobly losing her eyesight, a multiple-handkerchief situation that proved one of her biggest hits. Voyager allows Davis one of her favored techniques (appearing frumpy for at least part of her performance) as a mother-dominated spinster who comes out of her shell. Her match with Paul Henreid--and the music of Max Steiner--turns this into one luscious melodrama.

If Mr. Skeffington (1944) is not as celebrated as those films, it is nevertheless a characteristic Warners work-out. Davis wasn't shy about playing unsympathetic roles, and Fanny Skeffington--vain, selfish, married for practicality--is an exasperating tour de force. She gets good support from Claude Rains as the sensible, adoring husband. The Star (1952) is no classic, but its Pirandellian aspects will appeal to the actress's fans: Bette plays a washed-up Oscar-winning star desperate to get herself back in the public eye (think if it as a less witty postscript to All About Eve). There's some hint the main character is modeled more on Joan Crawford than Bette herself, in which case Davis must have loved playing it.

Extras are modest, with short featurettes giving background on three of the discs, and director Vincent Sherman providing commentary for Mr. Skeffington. But the films themselves, and their neurotically intense star, are quite capable of standing alone. --Robert Horton

Changing my tune.......2007-05-05

As my tagline indicates I am mad about musicals, and I vowed I would never add dramas to my collection because with musicals, you can play the numbers over and over again, like a record, and enjoy. You can never tire of songs, dance and spectacle. But dramas? Once seen, to be put away for years, otherwise you become too familiar with the plot and the initial impact weakens. I revised my thinking with the release of the Bette Davis Collections because I realised that - in keeping with my love of musicals - every Bette Davis movie is a symphony. A symphony of emotions that equals major musical works - grand opera, concertos, and the subtlety of chamber ensembles. I also have a personal connection with "Dark Victory" and "Now Voyager". They were the work of screenwriter Casey Robinson, top Warner Brothers writer of the 30's and 40's, who retired with his Australian wife, Joan, to Sydney and became a close friend. Having heard all the stories, I asked him if Bette was difficult. "She never changed a line," he told me, "she respected a good script." Enough said. I worry a bit about them shoving "The Star" into this collection - it's a lesser vehicle when they could have included "The Old Maid" or "The Sisters"...but that's the deal, huh? It seems 'collections' are an opportunity to offload at least one minor low-budget movie. However, it's still interesting given Bette's typically bravura performance, and it's wonderful that her formidable contribution to cinema is preserved so magnificently. Go see what I think about Collection Two.

The Bette Davis Collection.......2007-02-23

Absolultely must have for any fan. It is great. I love "The Letter".

Bette Davis's Best Movies All In One Simple Box.......2006-11-04

People have often said that Bette Davis is the most versitile and simply the best actress to have come out of Hollywood, and until Meryl Streep came along I would agree with that statement, Bette Davis give remarkable performances in all five of these films, In The Letter, Bette Davis gives one of her finest performances a moody cheating housewife who murders her lover and then claims it was self defence, in Now Voyage she plays the shy and intraverted daughter of a controlling mother, when the mother dies she has trouble coming out of her shell and when she does she finds love, but none of it is that simple, a very good film, extremely good dialogue, all the films in this box set a brilliant and I would recommend these films to anyone that wants to watch a film with real actors that have real talent.

Christmas in Connecticut is a holiday film that plays 365 days of the year. Barbara Stanwyck gives a brilliant, sardonic performance as Elizabeth Lane, a columnist for Smart Housekeeping magazine, whose enticing descriptions of the exquisite meals she prepares for her husband and baby on their bucolic Connecticut farm earns her fame as "America's Best Cook." A writer, she is; a cook, she is not. As she types the words, "From my living room window, as I write, the good cedar logs cracking on the fire..." the view is of clothes flapping on the line outside her bachelorette Manhattan apartment. An able supporting cast keeps her lie on life support: her editor, her stuffy and detestable architect suitor, and the wonderful "Uncle" Felix (S.Z. Sakall), an English-garbling Hungarian chef who provides the recipes that fill her column.

Cut to Jefferson Jones, a sailor adrift at sea for weeks after his destroyer is torpedoed. Memories of the food described in Lane's columns are central to his survival. After his rescue, as he's recuperating in a naval hospital, a marriage-minded nurse thinks she might nudge Jones to the altar if he could only experience a real domestic Christmas. And it just so happens that she was nurse to the grandchild of Alexander Yardley, the wealthy and powerful publisher of --you guessed it--Smart Housekeeping magazine. And so, she pens the letter that could unravel Lane's carefully constructed fraud. She writes to Yardley asking that Jones be included in America's ultimate Christmas--the one to be held at the Lane family farm in Connecticut. The pompous Yardley (ably portrayed by Sidney Greenstreet) believes the Lane myth and instantly sniffs a story that will send his magazine's circulation skyrocketing. And staring down a lonely holiday, he decides to join the Lanes for Christmas on the farm, too. Now, all Lane has to do is come up with a farm. And a husband. And let's not forget the baby. Christmas in Connecticut is classic screwball entertainment of the best kind, with its on-target skewering of social convention and house-of- cards-about-to-tumble tension: a perfect farcical vision of domestic blitz. --Susan Benson

Description

Journalist Elizabeth Lane is one of the country's most famous food writer. In her columns, she describes herself as a hard working farm woman, taking care of her children and being an excellent cook. But this is all lies. In reality she is an umarried New Yorker who can't even boil an egg. The recipes come from her good friend Felix. The owner of the magazine she works for has decided that a heroic sailor will spend his christmas on *her* farm. Miss Lane knows that her career is over if the truth comes out, but what can she do?

A bit plodding, but funny series of reversals.......2007-04-04

A woman who lives in an apartment in NYC and can't cook and doesn't have a baby must fool the owner of her magazine into thinking she really is the character she writes about. (She writes a very popular domestic advice column.) She succeeds, until a Navy hero wins the opportunity to spend Christmas with her in her house in Connecticut, enjoying her homemaking skills and meeting her baby. Problem is, she doesn't have any of those things. She borrows the house (from a man who wants to marry her), she borrows the cooking skills of a sweet grandfatherly chef who secretly cooks for her at the house, and she even borrows a baby. The unmaking beings when she tells the Navy man her child is a boy, and when he volunteers to give it a bath he discovers it's really a girl. Then the mother of the baby takes it back, and the baby is replaced by a baby who looks nothing like the first one. Then the woman is falling in love with the Navy man (and he with her) while the man from whom she's borrowed the house still believes she's going to marry him, and keeps bringing a minister to the house for a quickie wedding.

It's a delightful movie. Very funny, and rich in both plot and character development. Unfortunately, what probably makes it not a classic by today's standards, it is a bit plodding. It does not move at the same pace as, for example, the movie Casablanca, with which it shares some of the same supporting actors.

Barbara Stanwyck is perfect..........2007-03-31

...as she plays Elizabeth Lane. A smart, bold, writer for a Smart Housekeeping column, she provides hints and information on how to cook, clean and keep a well run household. But in real life she can't boil an egg.
But now her boss has decided to invite a returning war hero to her farm in Connecticut. To enjoy her good food, her happy family and her wonderful farm. Which does not exist outside of her column. This is Barbara Stanwyck at her best; smart, funny, and beautiful.
The disc also has a short called Star In The Night, another Christmas story, which allows you to have two tales of wonder and joy on one DVD. This makes for a great extra.

Another Christmas Classic.......2007-02-20

Come Early Morning comes as a mid-afternoon career correction for Ashley Judd, an actress oft dissed in the years since her fresh, breakout performance in the indie gem Ruby in Paradise. No mystery there: what other lovely and talented woman has appeared in such a string of crummy serial-killer movies? By redemptive contrast, Come Early Morning suggests a de facto sequel to Ruby 13 years down the road. Again Judd limpidly portrays a young Southern woman, Lucy, trying to get free of a debilitating heritage--dysfunctional family on every side--and find her way to some kind of contentment. Lucy makes more bad decisions than Ruby did. For her, early morning isn't so much a new day as the hour when she faces waking up with one more guy she couldn't care less about. She plans it that way, because commitment is something she flees with grim resolve. But she also knows that the program isn't working for her.

The writing-directing debut of another offbeat actress, Joey Lauren Adams (Chasing Amy), this is a beautifully observed film, free of condescension toward its Arkansas folk, with an appreciative eye for the plain beauties of small-town life and semi-rural roads, and a sharp ear for three-cushion dialogue. "Did I miss Easter?" Lucy's housemate quietly cracks when she finds Lucy dressed for Sunday-go-to-meetin'; Lucy's trying to reconnect with her estranged dad (a magical, almost wordless performance by the wonderful Scott Wilson), who's started attending "a new holy-roller church." She also meets a newcomer (Jeffrey Donovan, excellent) who ought to be Mr. Right ... but nothing quite plays out according to formulaic expectation in this movie--among the most satisfying of 2006, which most people are going to have to discover on DVD. --Richard T. Jameson

Description

(Drama/Romance) Lucy is a 30-something woman who keeps waking up with a stiff hangover and a guy she doesn't even want to look at. If coming to grips with why she keeps repeating this pattern isn't enough, Lucy also begins to realize that she needs to get in touch with her familial past and, more importantly, with the person she has become.

Great acting by Ashley Judd.......2007-06-06

It was Ashley Judd's acting that drew me into this flick. I didn't even know she had it in her to come across so real. I like how this movie doesn't have a happy, fairytale ending. It has a realistic ending. It ends with a beginning, really. Watch it, you'll see. It's gritty and life-like, not cutesy-poo like the dvd case photo would have you believe.

Love Ashley Judd, just not this movie.......2007-06-03

I think Ashley Judd is an incredibly talented actress and usually will watch movies just because she is in them. But this was a really bad movie as far as story lines goes. I came away from this movie feeling very little, mostly that I wasted 2 hours watching. No inspiration, no thoughtful moments not even a just plan good entertainment. I hate to say it, but skip this movie.

It's hard to overstate just how corny and funny the Andy Hardy series of the 1930s and 1940s looks by today's standards--but that doesn't mean these films don't have a certain winning quality. It doesn't matter whether it's Mickey Rooney's winningly goofy blend of lust and innocence as a high school kid dying to make out with his girlfriend or his surprisingly touching man-to-man talks with his father, Judge Hardy (Lewis Stone). Think of this film as the precursor to "Archie" comic books, with its story of young Andy, desperate for the money to buy a car, winding up with three dates to the same formal dance. Rooney is engaging as the motor-mouthed (yet deceptively thoughtful) teen in pre-World War II, tail-end-of-the-Depression, small-town America: often in a coat and tie, always in a dandyish porkpie hat. This was the first film in this series in which Judy Garland appeared as girl-next-door Betsy Booth. --Marshall Fine

Andy Meets the Starlets.......2006-07-06

Love Finds Andy Hardy is the first film to feature Betsy Booth (Judy Garland), a sweet girl from New York that instantly takes a liking to Andy (Mickey Rooney). He is oblivious however, because he has to worry about two other girls. First, there is Polly (Ann Rutherford), his steady girlfriend who is going out of town for three weeks before Christmas. Then, there is Cynthia (Lana Turner), Andy's friend's girlfriend. Andy is being paid to take her out so no other guy tries to steal her away, but she's a pain in the neck.

This film is one of the better ones of the Andy Hardy series and it features a great cast. Mickey Rooney is insanely hyper in the movie, which can either be annoying or endearing. He certainly is a character, and although Andy Hardy is immature, it is funny to contrast the character to the man. Incidentally, the film sort of mirrors the real-life interactions of the stars. Rooney was taken by Turner's glamourous looks and claims to have gotten her pregnant when they were young in his book. Garland felt she was not glamourous enough so she hated the way she looked in movies, possibly because of lack of attention from Rooney. It is hard to see why she could not appreciate herself though; she is wonderful. Her singing is just as good here as in later years too.

All in all, this is a fun film, a great way to spend time with the family or alone. Any age can enjoy it.

You Were Right Mr. Mayer !.......2005-11-29

Like the Little Rascals/Our Gang comedies the Andy Hardy series of films are ageless. Louis B.Mayer often liked sentimental films that idolized America and the Andy Hardy Series is an example of this. "LB" took a special interest in this series and his hand is all over it. Mayer was often criticized for ordering MGM to make these kinds of movies and musicals but history has shown he was right. After he lost control of MGM in 1951 the studio went on to produce message pictures and other kinds of films. The public hated them. The Worst was 1959's Raintree County which was a cheap rip-off of Gone With The Wind. Mickey Rooney was the star of the series but Silent Era superstar Lewis Stone comes in 2nd as Judge Hardy. Ironic that these kinds of films were viewed as hokey by the emerging young producers and directors of the late 40's and early 50's, that took over and ultimately ruined then destroyed MGM, are the kinds the studios have been scrambling to bring back since the early 1980's. Mr. Mayer was 50 years ahead of his time !.

Bring Us More Andy!.......2004-11-16

I agree with the reviewer from Canada: It would be great if Warner released the entire Andy Hardy series as a boxed set. I've had six of the films (on VHS) in my collection for quite a few years and never get tired of watching them. Here's another vote cast for more of Judge Hardy's family on DVD!

Wonderfully funny and Entertaining!!!.......2004-10-02

This movie is a fun, bright movie! Mickey Rooney stars with Judy Garland, (Jutes)Fay Holden, Lewis Stone, Celia Parker, Ann Rutherfurd and Lana Turner in this hilarious, wonderful masterpiece! Andy Hardy, (Rooney)plays a fickle young man in love with local town girl, Polly Benict (Rutherfurd). Then she tells Andy that she can't go the christmas eve dance with him, because she has to go see her grandmother for christmas. Andy promises the worried Polly that he won't take anyone else to the dance, but go stag carrying her picture. But then, Andy gets mixed up with his best friend's girl, while his friend is on vacation! Then he promises to take this girl, Cynthia (Turner) to the dance!

Surprisingly Fresh.......2004-05-26

I'd never seen an Andy Hardy film but I'd read that they reflected L.B. Mayer's delusional vision of American, full of sanctimonious lectures about the virtues of clean, small town living. But if "Love finds Andy Hardy" is typical of the series, then this view is both harsh and narrow. Yes, this is a story about a very white, very Christian small town but there aren't many lectures and the story is simple and unpretentious which allows the actors to develop their characters. The film suggest a way of living that allows for disagreement, sibling rivalry, unrequited love but doesn't transform any of that into pathos or moral tales. Instead, scenes unfold naturally and easily with a certain sweetness that is warm and inviting not cloying and artificial. Maybe this film has worn well because in its simplicity is a portrait of a period of American culture that seems geniune and lost forever. It doesn't feel dated because the film doesn't aspire to be ahead of the times but very much of it.

Clearly this is Mickey Rooney's movie. I've never been fond of him as an actor. His mugging and frentic energy make me turn away in embarrassment. However, in this film there are many moments when his enthusiasm is more infectious than his mugging is distracting. He works well with Lewis Stone and Judy Garland. Also he conveys his internal dilemma dealing with two girls with comedy and concern. There are also many moments when he hams it up so I don't want to mislead anyone! But at least I could see why he was so popular which is something that had escaped me despite watching several of the Garland-Rooney musicals.

Many Stooges fans will find Snow White and the Three Stooges painful going, while some might find it quite charming. The film was conceived as a vehicle for Carol Heiss, the 1960 Olympic figure skating champion, but it was obvious that her limited acting would not carry the classic plot very far. So the Three Stooges were substituted for the Seven Dwarfs, and Prince Charming (Edson Stroll) became their companion. The start and end of the film follow the Disney version fairly closely, with Patricia Medina providing the only real acting as the Wicked Queen, abetted by the reliable villainy of Guy Rolfe.

In fact, Snow White lost in the woods is almost a frame-by-frame copy of the Disney sequence, complete with a live tree out of the 1939 Wizard of Oz. This might grab some youngsters' attention by frightening them and some by amusing them, but the love sequences and the forgettable songs might bore them. The fight sequences are possibly too grisly for some children; Guy Rolfe dies by falling into a vat of boiling oil.

As a Three Stooges vehicle, it differs from their other films. Except for Curly Joe's spoonerisms, there is little humor in the dialogue, a bare minimum of slaps (without the reassuring comic sounds), and no eye pokes. (Moe was sensitive to parental complaints about their television shorts.) There is, however, a touching moment when they are mourning the supposed death of Snow White. And you do get to see them in color. --Frank Behrens

fairytale classic given a new spin.......2007-05-26

While it doesn't exactly follow the storyline of the original fairytale, SNOW WHITE & THE THREE STOOGES comes alive with comedy, romance and action. This film was tailored as a showcase for five-time Olympic champion iceskater Carol Heiss, and while she lacks the dramatic finesse of a true actress, she deeply feels the role of Snow White and does a fine job.

In this version of the tale, the Wicked Queen (played with aplomb by B-movie bad girl Patricia Medina) plots to kill lovely Snow White (Carol Heiss) as well as the prince of a neighbouring kingdom. Both plans flounder, and the two royal refugees find solace in the company of a wandering minstrel trio (played by--of course--the Three Stooges). What follows is a wonderful mix of comedy, adventure and breathless romance as Snow White and her Prince Charming skate towards their "sky of happiness".

As an all-skating, all-musical version of SNOW WHITE, this version hits the mark beautifully. Playing the thankless role of the Prince Charming is no easy assignment, but Edson Stroll does what he can with the part--most of the time he just stands around looking pretty, but what else does a fairytale prince do? Likewise, Carol Heiss rarely rises above the level of department-store mannequin in her performance as Snow White, but achieves what she can, and really comes alive with her ice-skating routines.

Patricia Medina manages to hold back in her rendering of the Wicked Queen; it would have been so easy for the role to be done in a high-camp style, but Ms Medina stays true to the material and plays it straight. The Three Stooges likewise curb their usual comic schtick, and it does make a refreshing and welcome change. They could sometimes be subtle, and the proof is right here.

The production values are indeed lavish. The director, Walter Lang, almost bankrupted the Twentieth Century-Fox studios with his incredible ice-rink sets, and there several wonderful skating sequences to savour, including a "Dream Ballet" for Stroll and Heiss. The musical numbers do little to advance the plot, but are very pretty, and highlights include "Magic Day" and "That Place Called Happiness".

As with any film version of a fairytale classic, it's hard not to get caught up in the romance and adventure--the same is true for SNOW WHITE & THE THREE STOOGES.

The DVD includes both widescreen and full-frame versions of the film, plus the trailer. (Double-sided, single-layer disc).

The best yet of their work.......2007-04-05

By far I think picture this picture was has the best of their work, however, I may not have seen them all, wasn't there a movie with them going west?

Charming children's fantasy by OZ's Noel Langley, best for family viewing but Stoogeheads should see this at least once.......2007-03-19

SNOW WHITE AND THE THREE STOOGES is unique in the Stooges' filmography. It is NOT a burlesque of the famous fairy tale. The title conjures up visions of The Three Stooges being clumsy and noisy and violent and generally making a shambles of the story. If that's what you like about The Three Stooges, this picture will probably be a disappointment. But if you're a serious Stooge buff who tries to see everything the team ever filmed, the Stooges will surprise you in this. They're mellower than usual and you'll see them actually doing the most dramatic acting of their careers, especially by Moe Howard (very effective in a bereavement scene, with broken voice and subtle gestures).

In this costume piece, Moe, Larry, and Curly-Joe play itinerant peddlers (shades of their roles in 1951's GOLD RAIDERS) who rescue an orphaned boy from attack, and years later befriend a young girl who fears for her life. The boy turns out to be Prince Charming and the girl is Snow White, and the Stooges do everything in their power to protect them from the wicked Queen and her assassins.

There are familiar story elements in this, courtesy of none other than Noel Langley, the screenwriter who adapted THE WIZARD OF OZ and the 1951 SCROOGE. Langley's script hits all the right notes as the story unfolds. (You'll recognize the "forest," "hourglass," "three protectors," and "wicked witch" elements from OZ.) Stooge screenwriter Elwood Ullman contributed material for the Stooges, but it's much gentler than usual and more in keeping with the "Snow White" story. There is only one brief slapstick episode, with character comic Herbie Faye (familiar as "Fender" in Sgt. Bilko's platoon) on the receiving end of several pies. Faye acts and sounds like Shemp Howard!

The production itself is handsome and elaborate, with superb color photography by ace Fox cameraman Leon Shamroy and good direction by Fox veteran Walter Lang. Carol Heiss will probably impress more with her skating than her acting, but she fills the demands of the role well. Edson Stroll is the juvenile lead and this is probably his biggest role (more footage than in his many years on "McHale's Navy" combined). Patricia Medina and Guy Rolfe are quite effective as the villains; Rolfe is reminiscent of Basil Rathbone in Errol Flynn's costume epics.

The double-sided DVD includes both the widescreen and full-screen versions, as well as the long theatrical trailer. The restoration job is superior: picture is excellent and the sound is remarkable.

This makes a good family-matinee show. If you DON'T like the Stooges, try this: you'll like their quieter brand of humor here. If you're a student of the Stooges, see it for the team's dramatics. If you only watch the Stooges for the slam-bang action and physical mayhem, you won't find them here, but it's worth a look: you might discover new things to like about the Stooges.

Are you people insane?.......2007-01-22

What's with all of the favorable reviews on here?!? Snow White and the Three Stooges was one of the worst movies I've ever seen...EVER. I love the Stooges, and it was really pitiful to watch three of the funniest men in the history of comedy lower themselves to these depths. Not a single second of this movie is even remotely funny. If you're really interested in watching Moe Howard frolick around with Snow White on ice skates, this film is for you. Otherwise, avoid at all costs.

Family veiwing.......2007-01-16

Skating in this film was a real life experience. However, much of the skating was cut from this film so you must enjoy the comedy of the Three Stooges which is entertaining for the kids of all ages.

beware the wife who's falsely-scorned..........2007-05-28

DON'T TRUST YOUR HUSBAND (aka "An Innocent Affair" and "Under Suspicion") is mainly notable for featuring Fred MacMurray and Madeleine Carroll in their fifth--and final--screen pairing.

The story revolves around suspicious wife Paula Doane (Madeleine Carroll) who suspects her ad-executive husband Vincent (Fred MacMurray) of carrying on with one of his clients. She hires a handsome actor to make him jealous, only for the plan to backfire when the man she unwittingly attracts is the Southern tobacco tycoon Claude Kimball (Charles "Buddy" Rogers). In the meanwhile, Vincent decides to have a little fun too, taunting Paula with his alleged mistress, Mrs Fraser (Louise Allbritton).

DON'T TRUST YOUR HUSBAND is a sparkling sex farce filled with expert performances. I wish MacMurray and Carroll's screen partnership hadn't ended here. The supporting cast is first-rate with Rita Johnson, Alan Mowbray and Pierre Watkin.

This budget-line DVD from Geneon features a decent quality print. (Single-sided, single-layer disc).

a pleasant surprise.......2007-01-12

This slick domestic farce showcases the talents of likeable 1940s B-team Fred MacMurray and Madeleine Carroll, along with a fine supporting cast that includes Rita Johnson (The Big Clock, Here Comes Mr. Jordan) and Alan Mowbray (I Wake Up Screaming, That Uncertain Feeling). The story will be familiar to fans of the genre-- a wealthy bumpkin (Buddy Rogers), via the usual dose of absurd screwball contrivance, becomes the object of expedient affection of spoiled wife Carroll, who suspects ad-exec husband MacMurray of carrying on an affair with a client. What unfolds is a gently acerbic take on the pitfalls of "modern" marriage that turns alternately frantic and tender at all the right spots. The transfer, while relatively flaw-free, is a bit grainy, but certainly well above the average quality of a budget print (Geneon seldom has let me down in that respect). At first blush, the awkwardly titled "Don't Trust Your Husband" may play like a poor man's "The Awful Truth," but this little-known gem is still fresher and funnier than 95 percent of what passes for comedy these days. Three-plus stars.

"Come on, Oscar--let's you and me get drunk." This caustic Bette Davis line is not aimed at a co-star but at the Academy Award itself, which down-on-her-luck actress Margaret Elliot cradles bitterly at the beginning of an inebriated evening. As you can guess, Davis is at full-throttle in his ripe melodrama, which came a couple of years after All About Eve and serves as a kind of less-classy companion piece to that classic. As the movie begins, Margaret has lost her career and family because of her own demanding nature. Rescued by a roughhewn boatbuilder (Sterling Hayden) she once befriended, she confronts what's most important--being a star, or being a (ahem) woman.

The rickety script and cut-rate production values betray The Star as a product of Davis's post-Warners wanderings. It does have some sunny location shots of San Pedro, plus a young Natalie Wood before she broke out of child-star roles. But the biggest draw, other than Davis, is the Hollywood behind-the-scenes juice, and the guessing game of how close the material was to Davis's own career (rumor has it the character, who wants to glamorize herself for a supporting part as a slatternly housemaid, was based more on Joan Crawford). It ain't art, but it's an artifact of a different era, skipping between backstage expose and camp. --Robert Horton

Description

As Margaret, Bette Davis got yet another good picture and earned her ninth Academy Award nomination. Davis?s confident, perceptive performance lends absolute authenticy, as did a prop she provided. An Oscar stautette set noticeably on the car dashboard during Margaret?s drunken spin through Beverly Hills ? was one of two Davis owned. Sterling Hayden and Natalie Wood co-star in this gripping story that has many moments of truth (Leonard Maltin?s Movie Guide). The Star shines.

Stark Film Illustrating The Tragic Downsides Of Movie Stardom.......2007-04-09

"The Star", from 1952 stars movie legend Bette Davis in a stark and none too flattering portrayal of a washed actress desperatly trying to recapture her long lost stardon. This choice of role was in actual fact a brave move for Davis at this time as she was literally experiencing in real life what her movie character of Margaret Elliot goes through in the script. Having started the 1950's decade brilliantly as a free lance actress scoring a triumph in her Oscar nominated performance in the classic "All About Eve", Davis went into a rapid career decline after this and experienced a decade of work in non successful movies with plenty of telelvision work done to pay the bills. "The Star", despite being compared unfavourably to Davis' earlier triumph in the show biz themed "All About Eve", is an interesting and often starkly revealing effort that was one of the few bright spots in this dismal decade for Bette Davis. Its central theme is sadly one that has proven all too real in the careers of countless celebrities over the decades who have enjoyed the glittering heights of movie stardom only to then experience a decline leading to heartbreak and tragedy in all its many forms. Despite its low budget and grainy harsh photography that in no way spares its leading actress "The Star", is a significant story that in a non compromising way illustrates a Hollywood none of us want to see. The story has it all from the breakdowns, to the tarnish beneath the glitter, to the tragedy of performers who are no longer "Box Office", and are thus just "yesterday's news" to the Hollywood Moguls and the paying public. Bette Davis like every other maturing actress in the early 1950's was experiencing some elements of this fictional story in their own careers and lives and thats what makes the film such a fascinating insight into the ugly side of what it means to be a "Star", in Hollywood's dream factory.

"Going.....going.....gone.".......2006-09-09

Bette Davis plays Hollywood forgotten legend, Margaret Elliot. She is bankrupt and no longer remembered. She thinks that one more great movie role can put him back where she was.

The film goes through her drama of trying to regain her stardom. It's pretty good, but it is not like her similar role in "All About Eve". It is slow and dull at some points. However, it is enjoyable. It gives us the depressing truth of how a person who is forgotten and no longer loved by the people can be exiled. It also shows how actors and actresses are remembered more for their stardom and less about their great movies. It is not the greatest of movies, but one should take a look at it.

* By the way, there seems to be a misunderstanding about Bette Davis's Oscar nominations. The internet and the back of the DVD case for "The Star" claim that she earned her 9th Oscar nomination for this film. She was not nominated for this film. Here are her nominations and their numbers.

1. Of Human Bondage
2. Dangerous (Won)
3. Jezebel (Won)

Fame and fortune are not the most important things in life.........2006-07-17

I think the reason this film is disliked by so many people is the message which, although true, is not something you can really tell to someone obsessed with the American Dream without expecting some kind of resentment!

The story is about a has-been movie star, Margaret Elliott (Bette Davis) who is kind of like to equivalent of Sharon Stone or Demi Moore today. She's only in her 40s, but her career is kind of dead and no one wants to cast her in a movie. She can't understand why, because she used to be such a big star, and now she doesn't know what to do now that her career is going downhill. After much depression and reliance on alcohol, which leads her into drunk driving and a stay in jail, an old friend (Sterling Hayden) bails her out and tries to help her get her life back on track. Since the movie career option is essentially out, he helps her get a job at a department store, but she has too much pride for that kind of work, and ends up a sobbing mess all over again. So Sterling encourages her wishes to go back to acting, after being offered a supporting role in a major picture, but again Margaret Elliot wants to be the star, not the supporting player, and fails to make the screen comeback she wanted.

It has been said that THE STAR was based on Joan Crawford, but I don't see many similarities. For one thing, Joan Crawford's career was one of the most durable Hollywood ever produced. Joan actually received an Oscar nomination for SUDDEN FEAR the same year THE STAR garnered Davis a nomination. Of the two, Davis was the bigger has-been in 1952, after a string of flops which included ANOTHER MAN'S POISON and this film, not successful at the box office.

I think this is the point where I should say THE STAR is a great film. The theme of the film is that careers are important, but they aren't as important as the relationships we have with other people, such as our family and other loved ones. Some people think this is a sexist slant for the movie, but it's a message equally true for men and women who obsess too much about getting rich and famous instead of just enjoying their lives and being with the people they care about. Again, not a message that's going to be popular with the Bill Gates and Trump crowd--among other extremely ambitious people, but a true message nonetheless.

It didn't matter that Margaret Elliott was no longer a star. Being a star is meaningless anyway. That was the message.

If you're a star...you're always going to be a star!.......2006-05-19

Watching this thoroughly engrossing 90 minute melodrama is a little like eating a jumbo sized bucket of buttered popcorn. It tastes delicious going down, but leaves you just a little queazy 'cause you know it's really bad!

Bette Davis leaves no scenery un-chewed as the faded Oscar winning Margaret Elliot who out-Desmonds Norma Desmond and makes La Crawford seem like Mary Pickford. Sterling Hayden is perfectly cast as her "Him-bo" love interest and a gorgeous but gangly Natalie Wood pops up as Bette's daughter. (Look for THE ADDAMS FAMILY's Grandmama, Blossom Rock, in one small scene as a housemaid!) This is almost a spoof, but you can't ever look away thanks to Davis's super committed efforts in the starring role.

Lots of fun, in spite of everything (including a shameful sea of boom shadows)! Unfortunately, the DVD offers no commentary track or noteworthy special features.

What Goes Up Must Come Down.......2006-03-05

The Star is a Sunset Boulevard type of a film. It is about a falling movie star (Bette Davis) who is getting older and who is falling out of favor with the public. However, internally she hasn't changed and she can't understand why everything around her is changing. After getting drunk one night and landing in jail, she begins staying with an ex-leading man who she helped into the industry. He helps her as much as he can, but only she can initiate change. The scene where she realizes what she has become is incredibly powerful and sad.

The film is truly powerful. Although it is an age old story that gets pretty tired, all of the emotions in this film are real. Most of it is thanks to Bette Davis, a wonderful actress who thankfully never allowed herself to become a stagnant washup. It is said in the film that such a story could not have a sympathetic lead, but that the audience would only feel pity for her. Davis makes the role relatable and therefore empathetic, leading to a more powerful climax and ending.

I have to say Palomino is my favorite movie by Danielle Steel. ( and she has many great movies) It's a beautiful love story played by wonderful actors. It's a movie you'd want to watch when the kids & husband are away. You can sit, laugh and cry and feel good afterwards. I was touched by it and could never get tired of seeing it.
