Some Excellent Cinematic Film Story Lines

By Arthur Blackwell

It wasn't that long ago that a trip to the corner video shop was the most convenient way to get a movie. As technologies have advanced, downloading dvds from movie download sites is becoming very common. Below is a sample of some of the movies you can find using movie download sites.

King and 4 Queens: Static misfire with Gable on the look for money concealed by spouses of 4 females he confronts. Cast includes Clark Gable, Eleanor Parker, Jo Minivan Fleet, Jean Wiles, Barbara Nichols, Sara Shane, and Jay C. Flip. (86 minutes, 1956)

Spy Hard: Here is a spy spoof comedy, featuring Leslie Nielson as agent WD-40. Dick Steel (WD-40) is being asked to come out of retirement after fifteen years. The evil General Rancor, long presumed dead, is back in action trying to take over the world. Dick Steele is the only man that can stop him.

Folks: Agonizing comedic misfire in reference to stockbroker Selleck trying to handle aging dad Ameche's absent-mindedness and mortality wish. A shocking number of misfortunes to Selleck give dry a poor name. Cast includes Tom Selleck, Don Ameche, Anne Jackson, Christine Ebersole, Wendy Crewson, Robert Pa~toreIIi, and Michael Murphy. (107 minutes, 1992)

D2: The Mighty Ducks: Hockey player Gordon Bombay is out for the year with a knee injury. Surprisingly he is given the job of head coach of Team USA for The Goodwill Games coming up. Many of the players are former Mighty Ducks players. Can they come together to pull off a big upset and win the world championships?

Jacob's Ladder: Brooding, often powerful story of Vietnam vet who agonizes from delusions, which may or might not be connected to his everyday life in N.Y.C. Frightening tale leads to a apex that-like a poor hairy-mutt the whole film! Bruce Joel Rubin's script is comparable to Ambrose Bierce's classic "An Happening at Owl Creek Bridge," only not as excellent. Macaulay Culkin appears unbilled in a key aiding role. 2 removed scenes were amalgamated for the film's cable Television debut. Cast includes Y2 Adrian Lyne, Tim Robbins, Elizabeth Pena, Danny Aiello, Matt Craven, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Jason Alexander, Patricia Kalember, Eriq La Salle, and Ving Rhames. (115 minutes, 1990)

AKA: Powerful tale of a youthful, gay, performing-style boy who manages to infiltrate England's upper crust, posing as a lord and nearly getting away with it. Shot on digital video, tale is informed by means of a triptych, simultaneously granting 3 views of each scene. Method takes getting used to however eventually the gimmick pays off. A mixed box, although still worth checking out. Written by Roy, and based on his experiences. Cast includes Matthew Leitch, Diana Rapid, George Asprey, Lindsey Coulson, Blake Ritson, Bill Nighy, Geoff Bell, and Peter Youngblood Hills. T, (123 minutes, 2002)

The Last Time I saw Paris: Updated rendition of F. Scott Fitzgerald tale, set in post-WW2 Paris, of wrecked matrimonies and disenchanted individuals. The cast includes Elizabeth Taylor, Van Johnson, Donna Reed, Eva Gabor, George Dolenz, and Roger Moore. (116 minutes, 1954)

Blood Rage: Grinning, sword-wielding, blind Vietnam vet Hauer whittles up poor gentlemen, spares a baby, and even fights with his mentor in this brash, vigorous although floundered try to Americanize Japanese "Zatoichi" films. Hauer is impeccably cast, and the film is amusingly tongue-in-cheek, however it doesn't entirely work. Cast includes Rutger Hauer, Terrance Terry O'Quinn, Brandon Hail, Lisa Blount, Charles Cooper, and Rick Overton. (86 minutes, 1990)

F.T.A: Abnormal, rarely seen documentary of Fonda and Sutherland's Free or the Army revue, shown near army bases and characterizing antiwar skits and melodies. Cast includes Jane Fonda, Donald Sutherland, Len Chandler, Holly Near, Pamela Donegan, and Michael Alamo. (92 minutes, 1974)
