Bought the item 14 days ago and I’m still waiting for it to arrive. Email the company and still no reply
Not happy at all with the purchase
Fantastic quality and great prices!
So happy we found this website for old movies. Arrived in good shape and good time and we are enjoying them. Will probably order more!
I did not receive conformation of my order, tracking information or even an estimated date of delivery. The only information I received was an e-mail stating the order had been shipped about ten days after I placed the order, and this notification came a couple days after I had gone back to the site to see if I could get any information.. Lastly, I recall this being advertised as as new. It came in a hand made jacket.
I had an old VHS recording of the movie from the 1980s on TV. I was looking for a better quality version. Although this purchased version is better than what I had, it was only a little better. It was not the crisp DVD quality that I was hoping for. It appears to be VHS quality instead. It’s still my favorite Christmas movie.
Great movie
Love Begins DVD arrived quickly great value
Grateful for the thunderstruck dvd, loved that movie as a kid. Basic story line but about a great band and mate ship
Quality not amazing but shipping was fast
Great movie sadly, subtitles would have been helpful for those of us who don't understand German.
Haven't had a chance to watch them yet, but I always liked the character so it should all be good.
Mum appreciated. Thanks
This is a very good cover and video dvd.Great quality video,and I will definitely buy here again and highly recommend this shop.
I really enjoyed the movies. Worth the wait for ordering.
Great DVD it arrived on time in great condition couldn't have gotten better anywhere else
THE BOYS IN THE BOAT arrived speedily in perfect condition and well packaged. The preparation for the 1939 Olympics in Berlin at one university makes for a fascinating tale of courage and determination. A story well told and multi-layered to keep everyone glued to the screen. It is brilliant.
Thanks for the great DVD Of The seven ways from sundown it was great it arrived on time in great condition I couldn't have gotten better anywhere else
A good movie. It's funny, warm, and interesting.
Quite old film, but the new BluRay brings it back to life in very good detail. Superb picture quality given its age. Storyline is nonsense, but hey its a good film.
Pleasant deal, highly recommendable seller
I knew that this movie was based on a true story, but the movie filled in a lot of the blanks. I don't know how much poetic license they took but the story came out beautifully. I laughed, I cried, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I loved this movie. It was well acted, and the settings were engaging. The filming, editing, and directing were flawless. It's hard to go wrong with James Garner and Julie Andrews; I could watch them together every day.
We have been looking for this movie for some time. Greatly surprised to find it available at "Rare and Collectible DVDs". DVD was shipped quickly and arrived undamaged. The Hornblower DVD, even though it is over 45yrs old displayed in great detail and clarity (Restored ?). Very pleased to see this again.
A movie ahead of its time
The 3rd Man, is a movie that looks and feels not like a movie of the 40s, but like a neo-noir of the late 60s/early 70s. This wonderful example of classic noir is one of the all time greatest films. It combines amazing visuals, sounds, dialogue, and acting to tell a thrilling story and comment about the atmosphere after WWII.
Of all the movies during the studio era (pre-1960ish), there are three movies with cinematography that always stick out in my mind: Gregg Toland’s work in Citizen Kane, Russel Mety’s work in Touch of Evil, and Robert Krasker’s work in The Third Man (all starring Orson Welles funny enough). I just recently saw a restored 35mm version of The Third Man. The crisp black and white visuals of a bombed out Vienna are so breath-taking. Shadows are everywhere. The unique way Krasker tilts the camera in some shots adding to the disorientation of the plot. And who can forget the first close-up of Welles with the light from an apartment room above splashing onto his face; one of the great entrances in movie history (Lime gives his old friend a smile that only Welles could give).
The cinematography is backed by strong performances by Welles, Cotten, and Italian actress Vali. The writing of Greene is wonderful; you can see the plot twisting around Cotten tightly. But what makes The Third Man so great is its historical commentary (well not really historical since it was commenting on its own time, but to us it is historical). On one level The Third Man is a story of betrayal and corruption in a post-war, occupied Vienna. On the other hand, its giving the audience a glimpse of the mood of Europe after the great war. The uncertainty that the Cold War was bringing is evident through out the film; Cotten is constantly trying to figure out who to trust. Vienna is on the frontier of the new communist bloc (we even see the communists infiltrating Vienna trying to bring Vali back to her native Czechoslavakia). The zither music score combined with the stark images of bombed out Vienna are reminiscent of the frontier towns of American Westerns. So The Third Man is not only a wonderful film noir, but a unique look at the brief time between WWII and the height of the Cold War.
