 | Beyond the Valley of the Dolls
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $9.91 I thought it would be fun to have a Valley of the Dolls/Beyond the Valley of the Dolls double feature. Well, Valley was so long,dramatic and outdated that afterwards, it left something to be desired. Beyond, however, was one of the most exciting movies I've ever seen! The acting, the music, and that finally, WOW! I hadn't realized what an influencial film that was. Russ Meyer is a genius!

 | Mon Oncle - Criterion Collection
Buy new: $22.99 / Used from: $17.95 funny and quaint Tati film featuring the character that made him famous, Mr. Hulot. I'm not sure, but I have a feeling he influenced Rowan Adkins' Mr Bean character.

 | Kiss Me, Stupid
Buy used from: $4.80 quirky Billy Wilder flop. Ray Walston steals the show. Dean Martin playing his usual sleazy role.
|
 | The Puppetoon Movie
Buy new: $6.49 / Used from: $4.99 a compilation of George Pal's Puppetoon shorts, hosted in movie-form by Gumby. This guy pioneered stop animation. Great stuff, Tuby the Tuba is my personal favorite.

 | JFK - Director's Cut (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy used from: $8.73 This was around the time I started reading a lot of assassination conspiracy theory. This is essentially the holy grail of the subject as far as film is conscerned. Based on the Jim Marrs book, "Crossfire: the Plot that Killed Kennedy"
|
 | JFK II - the Bush Connection DVD
More fun stuff for the Conspiracy buff.
|
 | Executive Action
Buy new: $5.79 / Used from: $5.48 the first movie to depict the assassination movie as a coup. Names were changed, but very well made and, well, you get the idea.

GREAT theme song, unfortunately it's not even in the movie. Crap!
|
