Piper Laurie was born Rosetta Jacobs in Detroit, Michigan, on January 22, 1932, the daughter of a Polish immigrant and his Russian-American wife. Her father was a furniture dealer who moved his family to Los Angeles, California, when she was 6-years-old. Rosetta was a pretty red-haired little girl, but very shy, so her parents sent her to weekly elocution lessons. In addition to her lessons in Hebrew school, she studied acting at a local acting school, and this eventually led to work at Universa...

"Patty Duke tried awfully hard to bring Capote's classic character Cousin Suk to life in this newer screen adaptation of his famous short story. As wonderful as Duke is, she cannot erase the memory of Geraldine Page's performance in the 1966 ABC Television production with Mr. Capote narrating. This newer version is about a half-hour longer and introduces a number of additional characters and expands on the story. About the only thing that is missing is the charm and simplicity of Capote's original."
"I remember back in the day when this book came out. we had to read it in college. it was huge and i thought oh no... Once i started reading this book, i couldn't put it down. i fell in love with the story, characters, landscape etc.once the mini series aired, i was skeptical. i was wrong... They made this movie exactly the way it should have been and stayed true to the perfect book by colleen mccullough.this movie will stand the test of times and has become an instant classic.no matter what age... (15 and up years old) you won't help but fall in love with the characters and this epic love story.anyone who is a true romantic will enjoy this movie over and over again.hands down a perfect 100% - 5 star movie (mini series) do not miss this one!"
"This is one of the most unique movies I've ever seen. Very original. It's very much in a class of it's own. It is a fun movie of the 80s with the Coreys in another one of their adventures. However it's not exactly a John Hughs type of movie. Not only is the story a bit different but even the direction, and essence of the movie is different and unique as well. I am not saying that it is a bad movie at all, I really like it for what it is. A cool 80s soundtrack from opening to closing credits. The price of this movie is very generous and worth the buy. Buy it if your a fan of 80s teen movies and add it to your collection. The soundtrack is also available here at Amazon."
The Adventures of Francis the Talking Mule, Vol. 1
"If you've forgotten Francis, Mr. Ed's distant cousin, it's time to reintroduce yourself. Francis (a.k.a., Chill Wills) and Donald O'Connor, are great, light hearted adventures that all ages can enjoy. Universal has in the past, put out some pretty shoddy products. But this time, I have to hand them credit. The transfers are great! About my only complaint would be lack of any extras or trailers.Hopefully, a volume 2 is in the works....with the widescreen movies in the series in proper aspect ratio.All in all, this set is highly recommended!"
