David-Keith Movie Reviews

A discombobulated cowboy comedy in which an aging (over-the-hillish) Jimmy Stewart locks horns and then falls in love with an eccentric, headstrong English woman, who is determined to introduce Hereford cattle into Texas. The livestock angle dominates the plot (yawn -- who cares?) and the most likeable character turns out to be her prize bull, Vindicator. I thought this was kind of a snoozer, with a somewhat brittle feel overall. Kind of a dud.

I'm still in shock at just how truly bad this one really is. I should have known better, thought this one fell through the cracks or something and it did...for good reason.

Weak story is dragged down even further due to almost the entire film being shot in a studio. Some of it is comical, but not quite as comical as Brian Keith's wildman bagpipe playing Scot cattle baron. Hoot mon! You've been warned.

THE RARE BREED is a film about the delivery of a white-faced Hereford bull from England to the Texas range for breeding purposes. The man responsible for the task is James Stewart. The women who own the bull are Maureen O'Hara and her daughter played by Juliet Mills. THE RARE BREED is a fairly good Western with strong performances by Stewart and O'Hara. A fine supporting cast includes Brian Keith, Don Galloway and David Brian.

Andrew V. McLaglen directed many other good movies such as MCLINTOCK and SHENANDOAH.

Like most Star Trek stories the underlying messages are good. The big problem was the time limit to the films, too much has been cut out leaving the story thin and somewhat uninspiring. I recommend to all trekkies collect the series but also buy the books

"Bem" Was not a good episode, Commander Bem himself is dumb and foolish, and the end is not a good one. Kirk disregards the alien enity's warning to leave and then she (the enity) is Ok with it, get real! "Albatross" was a pretty good episode for the most part.

In these next to the last shows of the Star Trek animated series; BEM is the story of a new alien comander whose race has recently joined the Federation, but his actions threaten the lives of not only the landing party but the development of a new reptoid race being guided by a super intelligence of some kind. Albatross is the story of The Federation planet member, Dramia putting Dr. McCoy under arrest for his medical program that they claim wiped out millions of lives on planet Dramia Two some 19 years ago and Jim and Spock must find out the exact cause and clear Bones's name. Episodes written by David Gerrold and Dario Finelli. Directed by Hal Sutherland. Excutive Consultent; Gene Roddenberry.

I honestly thought that this was going to be a very entertaining movie when I came across it. Joan Cusack and Martha Plimpton are two of the best comedic actresses of our time. Laurie Metcalf excels at dry humor. Mix in the talented acting of Daniel Day-Lewis, Harry Dean Stanton, Glenne Headly & Deirdre O'Connell and it is all but a guaranteed success, right? Sadly, the answer is "No".

One of the key problems is that this movie completely centers around Daniel Day-Lewis. He actually does a fine job playing Henderson, an appraiser who works for a New York art dealer. The trouble is that this film isn't quite sure how to use the rest of the cast. Literally all of the other roles are relatively minor. I didn't time it, but I would be stunned if anyone else in the cast was actually onscreen for more than 20 minutes of the entire movie. When you have a cast of this caliber, that can be considered nothing short of criminal.

The basic plot revolves around Henderson having to travel to Georgia. The purpose of his trip is to inspect a painting which is believed to be worth around $10 million. While there, he has to deal with the members of an eccentric family. Of course, things don't go smoothly. Henderson encounters the usual silly problems that you find in many '80s comedies. The film is quite uninspired.

For those of you who lust after Daniel Day-Lewis, I would highly recommend seeking this movie out. He was only about 30 when he starred in this picture and he has an extended nude scene after he is forced to strip by some second rate hoods. "Stars And Bars" is a watchable film but I can only imagine how it would've turned out with a better script and tighter directing. Unfortunately...I'll never know.

My father's from GA, my husband's from England & we've both lived in/near NYC. So this film hit us where we've lived. Having seen "In the name of the Father" & "Gangs of NY" we couldn't imagine Day-Lewis in a comedic role but he was brilliant. His physical shtick was prime: absurd canoe rowing at the Atlanta hotel & especially his nude escape from bad guys who were also after the priceless Renoir. Jogging down the NYC streets in a cardboard box, he was rippingly funny. The ever-wonderful Harry Dean Stanton was perfect as the "Big Daddy" of a completely dilapidated Southern Mansion. All the minor characters did great jobs of work, especially the trailer wife (not sure of actress's name). We could've done w/ more of Joan Cusak & her bright comedic heart but truly this film is FOUR & 1/2 Stars! ...

The critics chose to trash this movie but it kept us in stiches the whole time. Day-Lewis plays the perfect British flop and the rednecks cast in the movie are hilarious!

Expected more from this flick by reading reviews. Couldn't find a place to rent it so I bought it, I was beat out of 10 bucks. You won't miss a thing.

I just recently watched this film and found it very boring and extremely fake. The acting was basically non-existent and it seems that every bloke in this film is only out to get into the lead ladies pants. The only appealing feature of this film was the nude scenes.

The opening rape scene was particularly distasteful but really gets the viewer primed for the ultimate revenge by the Necromancer (Lois Masten). One of Elizabeth Kaitan's, (aka Cayton), less nude-filled roles. Filmed on the Pepperdine campus in Malibu this movie is a must see if you like horror flicks.

If you've looking for the best of British comedy, be assured that this is not it. This is crass, sexist and stupid. If you like that kind of thing, help yourself.

First of all lets get the bad news out of the way - this is not Benny's best tape, however, it does contain some truly hilarious material. Forget the ridiculous charges of sexism and offensiveness - there is non of that here. most of the criticism of Benny comes from a very small but vocal politically correct minority. The man is still vastly popular in over 100 countries and that simply would not happen if he wasn't funny. I would say this is great family entertainment - unlike many of today's comedians, Benny relies on clever word play, ingenious mime and hilarious songs as opposed to the witless profanity offered by so many of the alternative comedians. Admittedly this video isn't for everyone and if you're a die hard feminist or a member of the extreme political correctness brigade then give this a miss. For everyone else, give one of Benny's videos from the 1970s and 1980s a try. it can really brighten your day, put a smile on your face and make you realise that the world can be colourful and fun. If you don't have it already however try the Benny Hill's Greatest Hit tape first as it is better than this tape and EVERY sketch is hilarious. Genius like this may never come again.

W.I.P fans should know; always watch out for big name(or simi big) named actors/actress's. Most big names don't have to do shower seens. But David Keith's true style dose come through. I was disapointed, but a good intellegent action adventure is not what I was looking for.

This video is quite good but there are other videos of cartoons you would rather prefer.Eg-Casper a spirited begining or spiderman.

A man, probably calling women whose names are in the phone book, finds one who, just divorced, is in need of sexual validation. She learns his game and turns the tables.

This was absolute Garbage. Burns is an old pompous whinbag, who glorified himself throughout this entire film. What a discrace. And who wants to know about some idiot who drove across the country? Not Me. save your money. this is without a doubt, the worst film in the history of the world.

Horatio's Drive is not simply about one man's impulsive bet that he could become the first person to drive across the U.S. in an automobile. It is also about the dawn of a new form of transportation in the United States, one that would forever change way we travel.
The story, told mostly through the letters that Dr. Horatio Nelson Jackson writes to his wife as he slowly weaves his way across the continent, is about the first wave of the future passing through an American that had remained unchanged for many years. Jackson, ever the optimist, writes about how certain he is that he can make it even when faced with a hostile terrain, no road maps and an under powered car prone to breaking down at the worst possible time. As he passes through one small town after another, he and his mechanic become instant celebrities. As one newspaper account of the time read, it would have been no less of a story had a spaceship touched down in the middle of town.
I though the story was intriguing and a real history lesson. It's amazing to think of Nelson and his mechanic crossing the continent without a major highway or road, let alone in a car that needed near daily repair.
The film itself is well done and certainly worth watching. Old time car historians will enjoy the mention of models come and gone. History buffs get a glimpse at a changing America. And while Horatio's Drive may not have the depth of other Ken Burns works, this is a delightful 'light' version of an interesting time and a wonderful story.
