A Streetcar Named Desire (Two-Disc Special Edition)
»rank: 1959
0ur opinion: :Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: O5/O2/2OO6 Run time: 122 minutes Rating: Nr essential video:Looking for a benchmark in movie acting? Breakthrough performances don't come much more electrifying than Marlon Brando's animalistic turn as Stanley Kowalski in A Streetcar Named Desire. Sweaty, brutish, mumbling, yet with the balanced grace of a prizefighter, Brando storms through the role--a role he had originated in the Broadway production of Tennessee Williams's celebrated play.

Porky's the Ultimate Collection
»rank: 4988
0ur opinion: :No Description Available.Genre: Feature Film-ComedyRating: UNRelease Date: 22-MAY-2OO7Media Type: DVD :Porky's Reviled by critics and embraced by the public during its initial run (1981), Porky's is interesting to watch after all these years. What holds up about this horny coming-of-age tale is remarkable. Writer/director Bob Clark has little more than sex and practical joking on his mind, and his high school seniors from Angel Beach, Florida, rapidly move from one to the other. Clark displays a sense of timing and, perhaps rarer still, a sense of ...
