Standard Screen; Soundtrack English; Sensor Matic Adapted from A.B. Guthrie Jr.'s Pulitzer prize-winning novel, a sprawling Western adventure about a wagon train of pioneers making the overland journey to Oregon. The party is led by Senator William J. Tadlock, a visionary of almost fanatical strictness whose unyielding ways don't sit well with an ill-tempered fellow pioneer or his less-than-enthusiastic trail scout. As the group struggles to survive the arduous trek, their many hardships are compounded by interpersonal conflict. Kirk Douglas leads a wagon train of stars to a better life in the untamed Wild West. Sally Field made her screen debut with "The Way West."
Katherine Justice, who plays Mrs. Mack, also made her screen debut in this film.
Color by DeLuxe; shot in Panavision.
Released theatrically in the USA May 24, 1967.
Additional cast: Michael Witney (Johnnie Mack), Michael McGreevey (Brownie Evans), Connie Sawyer (Mrs. McBee), Anne Barton (Mrs. Moynihan), and Paul Lukather (Mr. Turley).
Additional credits: Leonid Raab (orchestrations)

The title refers to the night when three men, Randy (Matt Dillon), his cousin Carl (Paul Reiser) and Detective Dehling (John Goodman), all meet Jewel Valentine (Liv Tyler) at a bar called McCool's. Actually, they don't so much meet her as fall under her spell when they first lay eyes on her. In her clinging red dress she looks like a cross between a beautiful damsel in distress and the Lady In Red looking for John Dillinger. The story begins with Randy, desperate to be rid of Jewel, hiring a sleazy hitman, played by Michael Douglas in an outré toupee. His story of how Jewel led him to ruin, filmed in a stylized flashback bathed in blue, is mirrored by Carl talking to his therapist--played with ...

Blake Edwards's return to the male-in-meltdown territory he explored in 10 and THAT'S LIFE stars John Ritter as unemployed writer Zach, who is not only suffering from writer's block, but his drinking is out of control, as is his obsessive womanizing, and, not surprisingly, his wife wants to end their marriage. To add to his problems, his house has just burned down, and his agent is knocking at death's door. But since this is a Blake Edwards comedy, Zach has enough charm and relative affluence to continue his pursuits, which the director regards with a bemused deatchment. One of his girlfriends sets his piano on fire, and another gets him to wear a glow-in-the-dark ...

| | Pineapple Express DVD (2009) Unrated Single Disc Version
Way West DVD
$13.55
While it might sound outlandish to speak of THE PINEAPPLE EXPRESS in the same sentence as CITIZEN KANE, in its own little neck of the cinematic woods the Judd Apatow/Seth Rogen comedy is perhaps just as groundbreaking. In fact, it's nearly impossible to think of another film that blends so seamlessly pitch-perfect stoner babble with high-octane action sequences.
Dale Denton (Rogen), a process server with a weed fixation, witnesses a murder and turns to his dealer, Saul (James Franco), for support. The murderer is actually Saul's main drug supplier, and because of Saul's access to some extremely rare high-grade pot (called Pineapple Express) the two are quickly tracked down and put on the run. Like all Apatow/Rogen vehicles, the movie deals with the theme of men succumbing to adulthood and all the adjustments they are forced to make in the process. However, unlike KNOCKED UP and THE 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN, PINEAPPLE EXPRESS is just too wacky to offer any lessons. Still, there's more going on here than giggles and the munchies. Indie director David Gordon Green (SNOW ANGELS) brings a subtle auteur's touch to the proceedings, approaching the smoking scenes with his distinctively loose feel and giving the action sequences a wonderfully dated sheen that makes them look more like a fight from KNIGHT RIDER than the empty flash of 21st-century blow-‘em-ups. It is Franco, however, who truly steals this movie--he ...
