I cannot give you a review at this time for the simple fact I wrote you an email telling you that the DVD was defective and I needed to exchange it. I cannot find the packing slip and I am unable to follow the instructions on the back.

2 stars Not worth the wait
I have been waiting a long time to see this film but never got around to it. Being a great fan of Joan Collins I was thrilled to find out that it was on DVD..my friend got me this DVD as a christmas present and it arrived a few days ago. I was terribly disappointed..the plot was totally flat, the quality of transfer to DVD was poor and the acting unconvincing. Even allowing for the fact that it was made in the 1960 the scenes were not up to scratch, as for Joan Collins...one cannot say she was a bad actress but by god she has appeared in several bad movies...and this was certainly one of them. I guess it was my one fault for telling my friend that I wanted this DVD for christmas...what a waste!

3 stars This movie wasn't that impressive
The picture quality of this movie wasn't that great due to the movie being transferred to DVD. Some of the story's events according to the Bible was a little exaggerated. I expected more from this movie. The costumes weren't impressive, the actors weren't that impressive, and the scenery wasn't impressive. Other than that, if you want to visually see the story of Esther and all the characters involved come to life, then I recommend this movie.

Tan Dun - The Map
Tan Dun - The Map DVD  (2004)

Esther And The King DVD
DVD $20.35
Composer Tan Dun's THE MAP is an ambitious project which draws on his discovery of music from the far-flung corners of the globe. The majority of his discoveries were unearthed in China's Western Hunan region, where the talented musician captured a number of field recordings on camera. Using these recordings as a basis for a concerto, Tan Dun subsequently split the music he heard into 10 movements, named them THE MAP, and reconfigured them with the help of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Performances at the Boston Symphony Hall and New York's Carnegie Hall followed in early 2003. Then, in late 2003, Dun took the project to its logical conclusion by bringing it to the Northern Gate of Fenghuang Ancient Town for a performance aided by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra. This release features the concert in its entirety, ...

The story of Loretta Lynn, COAL MINER'S DAUGHTER charts the rise of the queen of country music from her upbringing in backwoods Appalachia to stardom at the Grand Ole Opry. One of eight children, she married at age 13 and was a mother of four at age 20. Shy and naive, she was pushed into music by her husband, Doolittle, who gave her a guitar instead of a ring for their wedding, in what was to be a career that also tracked her complicated relationship with this man. His strengths helped her create numerous hit singles, but his weaknesses inspired such immortal songs as "You Ain't Woman Enough to Take My Man." Sissy Spacek won an Oscar for her virtuoso performance, mimicking Lynn's voice nearly perfectly, while Beverly D'Angelo ...
