VHS Movie Reviews of Sunday in New York [VHS]Movie Review: WHERE IS THE DVD? Summary: 5 StarsWhy is this terrific rainy day movie not available on DVD? What a pleasure to watch three very handsome men - Rod Taylor, Cliff Robertson and Robert Culp - stumble all over themselves as each tries to win the heart of the one they love. And Jane Fonda was such a pleasure to watch as the innocent ingenue who did not want to remain so innocent. In todays jaded sexual environment we might laugh at her plight but the reality is that every young person thinks about the same thing she does - should she or shouldn't she? While she is certainly not teenager we can empathise with her delimma. But the real focus of this charmer is how Fonda and Taylor meet by accident and in the space of a few hours find a life time of love. Yes, it is fiction but who cares. Films are about falling into a fantasy world and I will take this fantasy on any rainy day - Sunday or not.
Movie Review: why still not on dvd?? Summary: 5 StarsI am waiting so long for it to come out on dvd...its such a nice movie!!!
Movie Review: Charming Kennedy-Era Comedy Looks at Premarital Sex or More Accurately, the Absence of It Summary: 4 StarsWas Jane Fonda really this young? In this coy 1963 sex farce written by comedy veteran Norman Krasna (Alfred Hitchcock's Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Indiscreet), she plays Eileen Tyler, a 22-year-old girl from Albany paying an unexpected visit to her airline pilot brother Adam in the Big Apple. She is reeling from a fight with her fianc? Russ who is giving her undue pressure to put out before they marry. Adam assures her that waiting for the wedding night is the right thing to do and then deceives her into thinking he is doing the same. Naturally, he turns out to be a womanizer planning to shag his girlfriend that day. Feeling like the only virgin in the world, Eileen meanwhile engages in a flirtation with a reporter named Mike Mitchell. Complications ensue with mistaken identities and morality questions thrown in to make the plot more interesting.
As if you couldn't tell from the swinging title tune sung by Mel Torme, the film is an idealization of early-1960's Manhattan single life that merely toys with the idea of premarital sex well before the concept of free love came into vogue. Guided by TV director Peter Tewksbury, there is a mechanical sitcom feel to the proceedings, but the real NYC locations help and the three leads are game players. Fonda is adorably adroit in a preview of her bouncier work in Barefoot in the Park, and Cliff Robertson plays Adam's double-standard hypocrisy with agility. However, it's Rod Taylor, fresh from filming Hitchcock's The Birds, who shines the most as Mike in a deft turn. Jazz pianist and composer Peter Nero supplies the loudly intrusive soundtrack. This film (released just a week before JFK's assassination) has yet to make it to DVD.
Movie Review: RELEASE THIS MASTERPIECE ON DVD......PLEASE!!!!! Summary: 5 StarsThousands of bad movies have been released on DVD. What about this masterpiece? Afraid of not enough buyers because it's from the sixties? You'll be surprised. I copied this wonderful movie from video to DVD but I want the real thing in widescreen and more quality.
Movie Review: PLEEEEEASE release this jewel on DVD!!!!! Summary: 5 StarsThis is one of those movies to which you can just curl up on the sofa and enjoy bigone simplistic but romantic views on social relationships. The movie, of course, is the product of its era, with all the expected restrictions to female sexuality and expression. However, get past that and enjoy the funny and warm performances. The DVD version is eagerly awaited since it's basically impossible to catch it on TV and, who has VHS only nowadays???
