DVD Reviews of Candleshoe
DVD Review: Pretty nicely done.
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm 48, and I remember this film from back-when. It's probably the only Disney non-musical of my childhood, that I would say that about.
There is no question: it's a nice little movie, not deep but enjoyable, with pretty fine performances by the leads. It's great fun to see Jodie Foster and Helen Hayes working together, and both are cast excellently.
Someone looking for "Pygmalion" or "Casablanca" (or Chekhov) will need to take this movie for what it is: a well-made Disney film. When you're in the mood for one, this is a good place to start.
DVD Review: An oldie but a goodie..
Summary: 4 Stars
Classic Disney movie worth watching and owning. I recommend this one for the whole family. It is full of antics and kid drama.
An orphan on the street finds out she may be the inheritor of the rich "candleshoe" estate. Only the estate is poor shape. The orphan (foster)has to come to the estates' rescue.
DVD Review: Young Foster makes this movie awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not a big fan of old live action Disney movie (or new ones for that matter) but this one is a keeper. My younger siblings were watching it for the first time and I had nothing better to do so I did too. I'm glad I did.
Jodie Foster is absolutely FANTASTIC as Casey, a cynical (albeit young), orphan with a lot of street smarts. David Niven provides genuine humor with his numerous roles. I'm not going to say what happens, because if you have already seen it you already know, and if you haven't, you should. Suffice it to say that despite a possibly lame fight scene at the end, this movie definitely deserves five stars.
DVD Review: great communication
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of my favorite movies as a child. I ordered it and it arrived promptly. Very happy.DVD Review: Yay
Summary: 4 Stars
I am so gald I could get this on Amazon as it's not available to buy anywhere in Australia. I used to watch this when I was a kid and I still enjoy it. The story is cute and simple and it's great family entertainment. Thanks.
