George Harrison - The Quiet One (DVD, CD And Booklet)

Advantages: Excellent musical tribute concert
Disadvantages: absent friends

...Excellent Concert held in November 2002 one year after George Harrison's untimely death. Disc One is the complete concert featuring an all star band including Eric Clapton; Ravi & Anoushka Shankar; Billy Preston; Joe and Sam Brown; Jools Holland; fellow ex-Beatles Ringo Starr & Paul McCartney; Travelling Wilburys Jeff Lynne and Tom Petty and Dhani Harrison, looking very much like his father in the 1960s. The vast array of George Harrison's work is featured as well as a wonderfully funny comic interlude by members of Monty Python singing Sit on my Face and The Lumberjack Song. George Formby's I'll See you in my Dreams closes the show. The disc is easy to navigate allowing access to individual songs.

Advantages: Audrey, the story, the humour....
Disadvantages: None whatsoever

...and dignified lady as well. It is a long film (about three hours) but the time will fly by. It is a true classic, which I believe everybody should watch. It is romantic and funny and the music is wonderful. Musical highlites include I Could Have Danced All Night (my personal favourite) and On the Street Where You Live. The film won 8 Academy Awards (Oscars) of the 12 that it was nominated for, including best Actor (Rex Harrison), best Director (George Cukor) and best Music. The DVD includes the original trailer and a making of featurette. Go out and buy it!! CD WOW do it for £9.99 but you can probably get it cheaper at your local TESCO.... Read review

Advantages: Good Film
Disadvantages: Not many

...This is an interesting film and enjoyable film. There was some good acting and the story line was quite good. This is probably one of my most favourite films of last year. It has an intelligent screenplay and is skilfully edited to keep you on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what is happening or what will happen next. On deep reflection it is a film that I would recommend, especially if you like thriller movies. Craig plays a good part. Good film.
