DVD Reviews of Same Time, Next Year
DVD Review: SENTIMENTAL POTPOURRI
Summary: 5 Stars
When this movie came out, I loved it! In fact, I listened to the music from Johnny Mathis ("The Last Time I Felt Like This") over and over.
In this movie, the premise seems trite. A couple meets, spends a weekend together, and that's it. But it isn't, and this particular couple, played by Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn, decides to meet again the "same time next year." And then, over the next couple of decades, we see the two of them connect again and again. We watch them as they grow and change--sometimes she grows more than he, and sometimes vice versa.
We're kind of rooting for them to get together, but we also know, on some level, that if this relationship were to become permanent, it would change...irrevocably.
I love the pairing of these two actors, and the theme music from Johnny Mathis evokes so many emotions in me...from that time. It transports me back to what was happening in my own life.
A memorable movie that touches on emotions and reminds us that it's the moments in life that are most memorable.
DVD Review: Good movie, poor dvd

this was the first time i've ever watched a movie the day i got it in the mail.
it is as it was described. I got it about two weeks ago possibly three and it's a wonderful movie and I always exp[ect great service from [...] as i plan to order from them again in the future.
I ordered this move because my mother recommended it and I agree it;s a wonderful movie and anyone who loves ALan Alda's work on ER, MASH and 30 Rock will love this movie because it shows how great an actor Alan Alda is.
DVD Review: The chemistry between Alda and Burstyn make this a true gem!
Summary: 5 Stars
Based on the 1975 Bernard Slade play of the same name, this screen adaptation stars Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn as a pair of married lovers, who meet once each year for 26 years. Though a movie about marital infidelity may not be one's cup of tea, this movie works because it doesn't focus so much on the lust-driven aspect of the affair, but more about two people who find themselves in a circumstance where they really care for each other, yet are strongly committed to their marriages. Alan Alda plays George, a married accountant with three kids, while Ellen Burstyn plays Doris, a California housewife.
The pair's relationship evolves over the course of 26 years, as each time they meet [in the movie, it kind of jumps every couple of years or so, beginning with 1951, then on to 1956...1961 etc], viewers get to see how George and Doris have 'grown' as individuals, and also how the years have shaped their relationship. They develop an intimacy that goes beyond physical closeness, sharing pieces of each other's lives, and confiding their innermost desires and worries. I truly came to care about both of these characters.
This is a movie that I first watched a few years ago, never knowing of its existence until I saw it on Netflix. And since then, I've watched it numerous times - drawn in part to the great comic chemistry shared between Burstyn and Alda, and also the wonderful soundtrack and archival footage of historical events through the years 1951-1977. This is one that will have you laughing and crying!

Bernard Slade's smart, funny, and touching play about an adulterous couple who meet one weekend a year for 26 years is nicely adapted for the screen by Robert Mulligan (To Kill a Mockingbird) in this 1978 film. The two-person story stars Alan Alda and Ellen Burstyn, both of whom are outstanding at conveying a rainbow of emotions over a quarter-century as life gives and takes away, and the world convulses with change. Mulligan brings taste and honesty to the film, and Alda and Burstyn give full, living performances. --Tom Keogh
