Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg, Tony Goldwyn - Dir:Jerry Zucker A murdered man has a final chance, as a ghost, to discover his murderer and say goodbye to his wife with the help of a phony pyschic.

Shortly after moving into a new Manhattan apartment, a pair of lovers are separated by a street thug's bullet. Communicating through a frazzled false medium, the man's ghost tries to avenge his death and protect his girlfriend. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Picture, Best Original Score. Academy Awards: 2, including Best (Original) Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress--Whoopi Goldberg.

After renovating their expensive loft in the TriBeCa section of Manhattan, Molly (Demi Moore) and Sam (Patrick Swayze), a young successful yuppie couple, are walking home one evening when Sam is tragically gunned down by a street mugger. Molly goes into a deep depression, but, unknown to her, Sam has come back as a ghost in order to protect her from danger--although he isn't yet aware who or what means her harm, and he has a lot of learning to do in order to make himself known to her. He teams up with an unwilling psychic, Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg), and together they try to convince a very skeptical Molly that Sam was actually murdered and has returned spectrally to complete some unfinished business. Moore and Swayze and are excellent as the couple, and Goldberg won an Oscar for her portrayal of the wild and wacky psychic. GHOST is considered by many to be one of the most romantic films of the 1990s.

Theatrical release: July 13, 1990. Shot in Technicolor. Despite mixed reviews, "Ghost" was the runaway hit of 1990 and was near the top of the list for box office grosses for that year. Director Jerry Zucker is better known as part of the slapstick comedy team of Zucker, David Zucker, and Jim Abrahams who made "Airplane!" "Ruthless People," "The Naked Gun," and "Hot Shots." This is his first foray into films with a more "serious" subject matter. Whoopi Goldberg's Academy Award for her performance in this film made her the second black woman in history to win an Academy Award. Film was shown at the Deauville Film Festival in France, September 1990, and at the Valladolid Film Festival in Spain, October 1990. Estimated budget: $20 million. The film grossed more than $215 million at the domestic box office and more than $500 million worldwide. "Good Spirits & Dark Spirits" visual effects supervisors (John Van Vliet and Kathy Kean) "Since I Fell for You" written by Buddy Johnson. "No Hiding Place" performed by Dorothy Love Coates and The Original Gospel Harmonettes "Kyrie Opening" by David Hykes and performed by David Hykes and Harmonic Choir "I'm Henry VIII I Am" by Fred Murray and R.P. Weston. Available to buy in the UK (widescreen version).

3 stars Fast Delivery, VHS Quality
First, loved the delivery time and email notification. It took just 2 days regular mail. The DVD I purchased has a VHS view, just a tiny bit grainy. The DVD view is not as crisp as I'm used to seeing, but for the price it's pretty good. I'll definetly order more DVDs from CD Universe in the future.

3 stars Not a Scary Movie
This is not a scary movie but a kind of romantic adventure involving the ghost of the deceased husband( Swayze ). The storyline is predictable and the screen writer tried to make the movie interesting by infusing some humor, mostly surrounding the psychic( Goldberg ). Reasonable performances from the cast but Goldberg stole the limelight.

5 stars I cry every time~!
This is a GREAT love story- and there's something for everyone: murder mystery, action, a little comedy and a lot of romance. I cry at the end of the movie every time I watch it not just because it is a sad, yet gratifying ending but also because it makes you more aware of the things and people we take for granted in our daily lives. Excellent flick, definitely one of my favorites of all time!

Director Bryan Singer's labyrinthine crime drama centers on five career criminals (played by Gabriel Byrne, Kevin Spacey, Benicio Del Toro, Kevin Pollak, and Stephen Baldwin) who meet after being rounded up for a standard police line-up. Upon their release, the men band together to pull off an intricate heist involving $3 million worth of emeralds. Their success brings them to the attention of the enigmatic Keyser Soze, an unseen, nefarious, and mythic underworld crime figure who coerces them into pulling off an important and highly dangerous job. The scenes that follow make THE USUAL SUSPECTS one of the most fascinating crime thrillers in cinema history. Working from the Oscar-winning screenplay by Christopher McQuarrie, Singer adroitly tells the complex story through flashbacks, cross-cutting, and voice-over narration. Such nimble handling of the intricacies of the nonlinear narrative adds to the suspense, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats until the clever, satisfying finale. Singer's expertise in the technical aspects of filmmaking--his use of a dioptic filter to keep two close-up faces in focus, as well as his inventive use of six-frame step printing--helped him earn his reputation as a visually impressive and stylish director. Filled with excellent performances from veteran actors (Kevin Spacey won his first Academy Award for his breakthrough role as Verbal Kint), THE USUAL SUSPECTS placed Singer squarely on the cinematic map. Benicio Del Toro, Chazz Palminteri, Dan Hedaya, Gabriel Byrne, Giancarlo Esposito, Kevin Pollak, Kevin Spacey, Paul Bartel, Pete Postlethwaite, Steven Baldwin, Suzy Amis - Director: Bryan Singer. Who Is Keyser Soze? To know him is to fear him. He murders his enemies, slaughtered his family. He is the most ruthless, brutal killer the world has ever known. Mastermind behind a $91 million dollar drug heist with no drugs, no money and 29 dead bodies floating in the harbor. Who is Keyser Soze? "If you can figure out before th

NTSC/Region 0. The classic 1949 film produced and directed by Cecil B. DeMille and starring Victor Mature and Hedy Lamarr in the title roles. Samson is the legendary strongman in this story from the Bible who is first seduced and later betrayed by the beautiful Delilah. Samson is known as muscular and fearless in his barehanded battle with a lion, his single-handed assault on 1,000 philistine soldiers, his struggle with a giant and the spectacular climax where he pulls the pagan temple. But even Samson's strength has its weakness as there isn't a man in the world who won't share his secrets with some woman. Most men have been trapped by smiles rather than by ropes. Castaways.

Bringing John Berendt's international best-selling novel, MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL, to the screen must have been a challenge. The book is essentially an anecdotal travelogue of the fascinating city of Savannah, Georgia. The filmmakers decided to add a character, John Kelso (well played by John Cusack), a writer from New York, who's meant to represent Berendt's point of view. They also put most of the focus of the narrative on the murder trial of local millionaire socialite Jim Williams (the redoubtable Kevin Spacey). This is slightly problematic in that Kelso, a mere observer, now becomes the central character of the film. But director Clint Eastwood (straying from his usual milieu, and, atypically, not appearing the film) and writer John Lee Hancock still manage to capture the quirky spirit of the book. They're greatly aided in this regard by the lush images of cinematographer Jack N. Green and the detailed work of production designer Henry Bumstead, who create just the right atmosphere for the small city and its environs. The strong cast, including actual Savannah residents such as sparkplug transsexual the Lady Chablis, makes the film an enjoyable idyll in a strange yet welcoming place. DVD. Feature film. 155 min.
