Dinah Shore, George Burns, John Denver, Paul Sorvino, Ralph Bellamy, Teri Garr - Director: Carl Reiner Suppose God personally recruited you to spread His word. That's what happens to supermarket manager John Denver in a graceful comedy classic blessed by the divine blend of three legendary icons of humor: George Burns, Director Carl Reiner and Screenwriter Larry Gelbart.

Jerry Landers (a terrifically surprising John Denver) is an average guy in every sense of the word. He lives a completely normal, dull life, working at the local supermarket (where everybody, of course, knows him and likes him) and never doing anything out of the ordinary. That's why no one is more surprised than he is when God chooses to make himself known to the world through Jerry by sending him a typewritten, misspelled note granting him an audience with the Supreme Being. Jerry doesn't believe his eyes when God turns out to be an old, scrawny man (who looks a lot like George Burns). First, God must convince Jerry that he really is whom he claims to be; as Jerry grow closer and closer to him, he starts growing apart from his family--his wife, played by Teri Garr, thinks he has lost all his marbles. As Jerry goes public with God's message, his faith is tested every step of the way, resulting in a very funny and meaningful trial scene. This wry, thoughtful comedy from Carl Reiner, based on the novel by Avery Corman, carries a serious message about religion, faith, and the way people care for the world they've been given. George Burns is delightful as the forthright, wisecracking God; his scenes with Denver are cinematic treasures.

OH, GOD was followed by two sequels: OH, GOD! BOOK 2 and OH, GOD! YOU DEVIL. Director Carl Reiner and screenwriter Larry Gelbart worked together on the classic 1950s comedy-sketch series YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS.

Oh, God! Quotes/Excerpts:

"Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"--court clerk "So help me me."--God (George Burns) being sworn in to testify in court

4 stars Classic 70's Comedy
This movie has been long overdue it's release on DVD, but it made the moment even sweeter when it eventually arrived. I rate this movie alongside other great 70's comedies such as "Fun With Dick And Jane", "The Out Of Towners" and "The Prisoner Of Second Avenue" (which are also overdue a DVD release). George Burns makes an excellent "God" and John Denver was just superb as the unbelieving Jerry Landers. I urge everybody to purchase this movie as it has to be one of the most underestimated movies of it's time. The only reason it didn't get a 5 star review was because the commentary track which I listen to on all the DVD's I buy was very unenlightening and boring. Apart from that a great movie and a great DVD.

5 stars A funny and a classic George Burns movie!
The movie was so funny and it had a good story as well. Where this supermarket employee worker played by country music legendary singer John Denver. Meets for the first time the almighty lord himself God! That's George Burns from a empty office business building room which he can hear God but can not see him at all. While shaving after having his shower in the bathroom God finally appears in front of him. And all of the sudden gives John Denver a quest to give the message that the almighty lord is alive and doing fine also.

Highlighted by the perennial "Christmas in Dixie," Alabama Christmas is a collection of holiday tunes counting among one of Alabama's strongest records, seasonal or otherwise; although at times the material is overly sappy. There's no mistaking the group's affection for the project, and cuts like "Happy Holidays," "Tennessee Christmas," and "A Candle in the Window" are all fine additions to the contemporary country Yuletide canon. ~ Jason Ankeny Live Recording

Run And Kill
Run And Kill DVD  (1993) Widescreen

Oh, God! review
DVD $10.15
Trouble arises when a psychotic hitman (the delightfully excessive Simon Yam) hired to kill a man's unfaithful wife asks for an exorbitant fee after the deal is made. When the buyer can't cough it up, the assassin begins to torture and murder all the other family members instead. Billy Tang's (RED TO KILL) film has garnered quite a reputation on the underground cinema circuit. Not merely a garden variety crime drama, RUN AND KILL takes extreme measures to drive home the horror of the violence depicted onscreen, and therefore is not for the faint of heart or the easily upset or offended.
