A good but slightly ineffectual man tries to off himself after an error that really wasn't his fault. In Christmas Carol fashion, his crusty-but-lovable guardian angel shows up to give him a tour of the world without his presence, and it isn't a pretty place. Moral courage, small-town American life, civic cooperation, and family love are glorified; corporate greed and self-involvement are vilified; at the climax, a blanket of snow like spun sugar makes everything pure and clean like redemption itself.

IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE was added to the Library of Congress National Film Registry in 1990. Academy Award Nominations: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (James Stewart), Best Editing, Best Sound.

3 stars Traditions
I started a tradition with my children (now adults) in which I'd set the VHS and let It's a Wonderful Life play on one television all Christmas Day. With the advent of DVD's I've stepped up my game and now have (2) DVD's (1) color and (1) black and white of our traditional Christmas movie. They whined a bit when they were younger, but look forward to it now that they're grown. The movie will play on (2) televisions Now.

4 stars Capra at his best
This is one of my holiday traditions. It was originially not a hit, but the story being a universal one has lasted anyway. The whole concept is that when you care about people they remember. Then when you need help they will do what they can to share what they have. Watch it once and you will be hooked.

Arthur Bishop (Charles Bronson) is a "mechanic"--a hired killer. And he's the best at what he does, for he exterminates his targets in uniquely violent ways. But the 50ish Bishop is about to retire, so he takes on a young apprentice named Steve McKenna (Jan Michael Vincent). However, the mechanic finds himself caught between a rock and a hard place when he's hired to kill Steve's father. MECHANIC is a pivotal film that brought together the talents of Charles Bronson and director Michael Winner. Had they not met here, there is a good chance they would not have gone on together to produce the three wonderful DEATH WISH films. Add to the combination of Michael Winner and Charles Bronson the excellent Jan Michael Vincent, and the result is an explosive, essential example of action entertainment at its best. Stars Charles Bronson, Jan Michael Vincent, Jill Ireland, Keenan Wynn, Linda Ridgeway - Director: Michael Winner In a role that powered him to stardom, Charles Bronson is an underworld executioner who turns murder into an art form in this ultimate crime chiller that co-stars Jan-Michael Vincent and Jill Ireland.

Francis Ford Coppola's Vietnam epic, loosely based on the novel HEART OF DARKNESS by Joseph Conrad, tells the story of Captain Willard (Martin Sheen), a special agent sent into Cambodia to assassinate an errant American colonel (Marlon Brando). Willard is assigned to a navy patrol boat operated by Chief (Albert Hall) and three hapless soldiers (Frederic Forrest, Sam Bottoms, and Larry Fishburne). They are escorted on part of their journey by an air cavalry unit led by Lt. Colonel Kilgore (Robert Duvall), a gung-ho commander with a love of Wagner, surfing, and napalm. After witnessing a surreal USO show featuring Playboy playmates, and an anarchic battle with the Viet Cong at a bridge, Willard reaches Colonel Kurtz's compound. A crazed photojournalist and Kurtz groupie (Dennis Hopper) welcomes the crew, and Willard begins to question his orders to "terminate the colonel's command." The grueling production and Coppola's insistence on authenticity led to vast budget overruns and physical and emotional breakdowns. Considered to be one of the best war movies of all time, APOCALYPSE NOW features skilled performances and beautifully chaotic visuals that make it a powerful, unforgettable work. This collection presents both the 1979 original and the 2001 restored and updated version, with 49 minutes of never-before-seen footage, a Technicolor enhancement, and a six-channel soundtrack. This 2 DVD set includes the film and Apocalypse Redux. Extras include commentary by Francis Ford Coppola, additional and expanded scenes, featurettes, post-production, and making of footage.

In the spirit of SAW and HOSTEL, this indie horror flick pits captives against a sadistic mad man with a thirst for blood. When a local marijuana grower leaves town for awhile, two enterprising criminals decide to sneak onto his land and steal a small stash. Unfortunately, they’re caught by the man himself, and soon learn that illegal drugs aren’t his only vice. Blood, crime, drugs and moonshine prove a lethal combination in this wicked back-roads nightmare called STASH. Bud's a heavy-set, bearded, Marijuana grower from the hills of Eastern Kentucky. While Bud has a growing operation, this is not his only secret. Down in his damp, dark, blood-soaked basement is a darker and more sinister one. When two local crooks hear that Bud's leaving town for a few days, they hatch a plan to relieve him of 20 pounds of homegrown. But before they make out with the stash, Bud catches them red-handed and forces them into a bloody game or life or death. A game where drugs, kidnapping, torture and rape are only the beginning.
Story Of A Junkie
Story Of A Junkie DVD  (1987)

It's A Wonderful Life review
DVD $13.49
In STORY OF A JUNKIE director Lech Kowalski documents the drug scene that permeated throughout the lower east side of Manhattan during the early 1980s. Kowalski's subject is an addict named John Spacely who is known on the street as Gringo. Gringo travels around lower Manhattan and brings the camera with him as he fraternizes with drug dealers and abusers. Spacely roams with purpose as he desperately feeds his obsession with heroin. STORY OF A JUNKIE breaks new ground, and challenges the viewer to face portrayals almost too real. John Spacely is your tour guide through the terror ridden streets of New York's East Village. Known as Alphabet City, it was the drug supermarket of the modern world. Growing up in California, John Spacely had everything going for him...or did he? He arrived in the Big Apple as a young man hoping to make his fortune and find his identity. What he found was the dark and desperate world of drugs.
