This program collects four classic films in the Francis the Talking Mule franchise: FRANCIS THE TALKING MULE, FRANCIS GOES TO THE RACES, FRANCIS GOES TO WEST POINT, and FRANCIS COVERS THE BIG TOWN. Please see individual titles for complete information.
an era of cinema lost The Francis movies had the same pace and humor as the Miracle on 34th Street and It's a Wonderful Life. Donald O'Connor is wonderful as the somewhat bumbling human that Francis chooses to communicate with. The dialogue for the mule is quite good and the voice of Chill Wills was perfect. I regret that these movies did not have a lasting effect on the public and most younger folks have not been present to the magic of Donald O'Connor and Francis. Future stars such as Tony Curtis and David Janssen appear in peripheral roles in some of these movies. Submitted by tmanos ("Orlando, FL, USA") Was This Review Helpful? YesNo

Memories fulfilled The movies were very entertaining when seen as a kid. They move fast and have a lot of humor. The running gags are neat and Francis captivates. Submitted by philately (Diamond Bar, CA, USA) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo

$6.55 A mysterious man (Kevin Spacey) shows up in Grand Central Station claiming to be an alien, and is promptly taken to a mental institution. When he doesn't respond to medication, he begins seeing a psychiatrist (Jeff Bridges) who is fascinated by him. The man calls himself Prot (rhymes with "boat"), and tells the doctor about life on his home planet, K-PAX. When he learns of Prot's ability to see ultraviolet light, and his savant-like knowledge of astronomy, the psychiatrist, despite his skepticism, begins to believe. But his continuing obsession with the man begins to bring out deeper issues, and Bridges' character is compelled to question whether his patient is a visitor from another world, or simply a deeply disturbed man. Based on the novel of the same title by Gene Brewer, the film is directed by Iain Softley. More than a science-fiction tale, K-PAX is a reflection on the way we live our lives, the things we think we know, and the connection of one human being to another. Spacey gives his usual believable, complex performance, and Bridges is exceptional in the role of a man torn by what he knows and what he wants to believe.
