| | 1. |  | The Garden of the Finzi-Continis
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
Are you only a fan of escapist fiction? If so, this movie is DEFINITELY NOT for you. That is a fact. I like escapist fiction, butvI also like films and literature filled with lush poetry, subtle verve, dreamy nostalgia, and serene visuals. This movie qualifies. No action. No slam, bang, pow. This... more info

| | 2. |  | The Shop on Main Street
from Home Vision
Customer Review:
If your parents or grandparents emigrated to the USA from Czechoslovakia, you will want to see this movie. It gives you a good picture of life in a small slovak village. Although the theme is about treatment of the Jewish population during the Nazi Occupation, the film gives you a good picture of... more info

| | 3. |  | Korczak
from New Yorker Video
Customer Review:
When I first saw and fell in love with Wajda's film, Korczak, I didn't know it had once been the center of controversy. Although given a standing ovation at Cannes during the festival in 1990, it was nevertheless branded as anti-Semitic by "Le Monde" the next day. Was Wajda stepping over the line... more info

| | 4. |  | Sunshine
from Paramount
Customer Review:
Although this movie is beautifully filmed, I felt disappointed in the end and wished that I hadn't spent three hours watching it. It is interesting from a historical point of view, but there is only one genuinely good character in this movie (the father) and he dies fairly close to the beginning.... more info

| | 5. |  | Good Evening, Mr. Wallenberg
from Fox Lorber
Customer Review:
Kjell Grede's "Good Evening, Mr. Wallenberg" is a noble but ultimately flawed effort. The story focuses on the efforts of Raoul Wallenberg to save Jews in Budapest during WWII's final days. Although he comes from one of Sweden's wealthiest families, there's nothing outstanding about Raoul. He's an... more info

| | 6. |  | Cup Final
from First Run Features
Price: $23.70
Customer Review:
This is truly the best Israeli film there ever was (and probably ever will be...). It follows a gang of Arab terrorists in Lebanon, 1982, who capture an Israeli slodier. It doesn't take long for the Arab group and the Jewish Soldier to find that they're really not that different from one another:... more info

| | 8. |  | Solomon & Gaenor
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
This was a sad yet beautiful movie. Yes, there were sex scenes but it was tastefully done. The end has a surprise twist....that's all I will say on that because I don't want to spoil the movie. Ioan Gruffudd did a an excellent job portraying Solomon and Nia Roberts did an okay job an Gaenor. Of... more info

| | 9. |  | The Governess
from Sony Pictures
Customer Review:
There were several favorable reviews from fellow Amazonians regarding THE GOVERNESS, and it was recommended by the dear hearts at Amazon, so I took a shot in the dark on this one.
The lushness of the Isle of Skye is absolutely breathtaking (great direction w/the sweeping camera shots), while... more info
