Honest Jeff Advantages: Shows One Man Can Make A Difference Disadvantages: But Only In The Movies Jefferson Smith (Jimmy Stewart; It's A Wonderful Life, Vertigo) is a regular guy from rural Montana who believes in democracy, liberty and the ideals encapsulated by American politics. After the death of the senator representing his state, he is chosen by the powers that be to go to Washington to replace him. Seen as an innocent, naive and completely under the thumb yet extremely patriotic yokel; the fat cats that have decided his fate feel comfortable ... ...heads to the capital to take his place in the U.S senate, he encounters a world far removed from Abraham Lincoln's vision of government of the people, by the people, for the people. Indeed the cynicism and corruptness of the system and the betrayl by Senator Paine (Claude Rains; Casablanca, Lawrence of Arabia), a close friend of Smith's father, regarding the building of an unneccesary dam, leads him to a jaded state in which he questions the true ...

Life Is Wonderful Advantages: Strong story, strong cast, strong message Disadvantages: None - unless you have a heart of stone After the second world war, some strange things happened - things which should have been dead certs didn't always reach the winning post. Winston Churchill couldn't win the 1945 election such was the mood for change in this country. Harry Truman wasn't expected to win the US presidential election in 1948 and one newspaper even printed an edition proclaiming victory for his opponent - which the victorious Truman posed with the next day. And Frank ... ...only to see it flop at the box office in 1946. Time however has been kind to this movie, and "It's a Wonderful Life" has become the classic Christmas film, particularly in the United States, where it is impossible to miss on TV over the holiday season. I first saw "It's a Wonderful Life" on TV when I was a teenager and classic Hollywood movies were still shown pretty regularly. I had enjoyed previous Capra movies, particularly those he had made before ... rosebud2001 20.12.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of It's A Wonderful Life (DVD)	Did you enjoy it?

Devdas DVD - AMAZING SETS, BEAUTIFUL COSTUMES AND A GREAT CAST Advantages: good cast, great cinematography Disadvantages: its a little too coey for the guys ...The love triangle of Paro, Devdas and Chandramukhi. Chanrumukhi is the most interesting character to me because she is perceived by society as a strong 'iron maiden' type figure who can stand up to anyone. However it is she who ultimately sacrifices more than Paro as she devotes her life to serve and love Devdas. In my view this film definitely leaves the viewer entertained from start to finish ... meghna 24.12.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Devdas (DVD)	Did you enjoy it?

Twilight - Not Just For Teenagers!!! Advantages: Quirky vampire -human - romance - fab music Disadvantages: The main character Bella lacks depth - poor special effects Twilight I have to admit that I avoided seeing this film, being vaguely aware that it was the new 'teen movie'. My daughter saw the dvd at a friends house and nagged me to rent it which I did. We sat down to watch it and I must admit I did not give it my full attention the first time round - I was on my laptop at the same time. Then slowly as the film came towards the end, I began to become interested. I decided to watch it properly alone and ... ...film is at heart a romance and yet even though it is about teenagers in love, it is a captivating story for all ages if you have any romantic bone in your body.
