"HEAVEN AND HELL: NORTH AND SOUTH BOOK III" (1994) - EPISODE ONE Commentary

If there is one chapter in John Jakes' NORTH AND SOUTH saga that is reviled por the fans, it the televisão adaptation of the third one, set after the American Civil War. First of all, the theme of post-war Reconstruction has never been that popular with tales about the four-year war. mais importantly, fãs of Jakes' saga seemed to have a low opinion of "HEAVEN AND HELL: NORTH AND SOUTH BOOK III", the 1994 adaptation of Jakes' third North and South novel, published back in 1987.

My opinion of the 1994 miniseries slightly...

"THE PRISONER OF ZENDA" (1937) Review

I realize that many film critics and fãs would agree with my suspicion that the 1930s saw a great deal of action films released to theaters. In fact, I believe there were as high number of actions films released back then as they are now. Among the type of action films that flourished during that era were swashbucklers.

One of the most famous Hollywood swashbucklers released during the 1930s was "THE PRISONER OF ZENDA", producer David O. Selznick's 1937 adaptation of Anthony Hope's 1894 novel. This tale of middle European political intrigue and identity...

"THE THREE MUSKETEERS" (1948) Review

There are times when I find myself amazed at the longevity of Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel, "The Three Musketeers". The novel has been in circulation for nearly 170 years. Hollywood and other film industries have been adapting the novel for the filmes or televisão for nearly a century. One adaptation I recently viewed was the Hollywood movie produced and released por MGM Studios in 1948.

We all know the story. A young Frenchman from Gascon sets out for Paris in the early 17th century to cadastrar-se the King's Musketeers. During this journey, he meets a beautiful,...

Episode Four ended with Ross Poldark, a Cornish landowner and mine owner,...

"CALIFORNIA" (1947) Review

I am a history nut. And one of my favorito historical periods that I amor to study is the Antebellum Era of the United States. One of my favorito topics from this period is the California Gold Rush. I also amor movies. But despite this love, I have been constantly disappointed por Hollywood's inability to create a first-rate movie about Gold Rush.

I may have to take back my comment about Hollywood's inability to produce a first-rate movie or televisão production about the Gold Rush. There were at least three that managed to impress me. Unfortunately, the latest film...
