VHS Movie Reviews of Ruby in Paradise
Movie Review: Why the heck isn't this on DVD yet?
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this film in the theatre back in '93 or so, and walked out of the darkness thinking that Judd had a great career ahead of her. Now over ten years later, it seems that R-in-P is destined to be her best film ever. I'd buy this movie in a heartbeat were it available on DVD. What's the problem? No distributor?Movie Review: I want to buy this DVD too!
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this movie, but couldn't find it selling anywhere.
Please release this DVD!
Movie Review: Release the DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great film. Ashley Judd's finest performance. Why can't I buy it on DVD?Movie Review: always with me
Summary: 5 Stars
I lived alone for a very long time before getting married and having children. I would watch this movie periodically to help me feel at peace with myself and my place in this world. Ashley Judd is very good and I am always hopeful she'll someday give a comparable performance in another film. Thank you Victor Nunez for this memorable film.Movie Review: The Emerald Coast Dream
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this film. Anyone who grew up in the South and vacationed in Panama city, and dreamed of living there, will relate to this movie in a special way. Growing up, it was a magical place for me and I always wondered what it would be like to just take off and live there.
Ruby does this and finds out...this is a great film, I think it is Ashley Judd's best film...I believe it is her first.
I wish they would release it on DVD.
Summary of Ruby in Paradise
An uncommon gem of a film, this story of a young woman finding herself is a marvelous sleeper. Ashley Judd (Kiss the Girls) makes her film debut as Ruby, who moves to a Florida beach town and tries as best she can to earn a living. She begins working in a clothing store and starts dating men, but after some hard choices realizes she must first figure out who she is and what she wants out of life before she settles for something less than she deserves. Writer-director Victor Nunez (Ulee's Gold) tells his tale as an amiable slice of life story without forcing any of the emotion. And Judd gives an astounding performance as a young woman whose quiet inner strength allows her to grow and gain confidence in the person she wants to be. Avoiding all the possible clich?s and presenting a positive, realistic, and touching character portrait, Ruby in Paradise is a rare and worthwhile discovery. --Robert LaneDown on Their Luck Video
