"Marilyn at her best but more rugged" - By Mountain Climber
I especially love this film for the scenery and songs Marilyn performs. Typical of the times it was made in, one scene in particular a bit forced and unnecessary. She and Robert Mitchum look great together, love his characters son as well. I've watched it several times over the years and keep coming back for more.(493) -

Price: $14.99 "If you like film noir movies you will like this four movie ..." - By paulg
If you like film noir movies you will like this four movie set that includes two great ones. Out Of The Past was my favorite of the two film noir ones and was worth the cost alone.(63) -

"but that's part of what makes it so great. That" - By Mark L. Pessoni (St. Louis, Missouri United States)
Confusing as all get-out, but that's part of what makes it so great. That, and the awesome Bogart quips and the Bogey and Bacall interplay. This movie is pure joy.
Embrace the intricate plot. Soak in the humor. Feel the heat from Bogey and Bacall.
This is one of the all-time great movies...(650) -

"Funny, heart-warming, thought-provoking, and inspiring...a great Christmas story!" - By Beemerguy53 (Bel Air, Maryland)
I first saw Holiday Affair more than 30 years ago, in pre-cable days, as a late-late-late show movie. I've had it on VHS for years, but it's been unavailable on DVD until now. Watching Holiday Affair has become a Christmas tradition in my home, and I'm very pleased to see it released at last on DVD. If you've never seen this little gem, you're in for a pleasant surprise!
Set in New York in the aftermath of World War II, Robert Mitchum is at his manly, take-charge best as a recently-discharged soldier trying to make his career dreams come true. Janet Leigh is beautiful, vulnerable, and very appealing as a young war widow, with a little boy to support, who is being courted by a successful attorney (Wendell Corey) she likes but doesn't love.
Mitchum and Leigh's lives intersect at the department store where he ... full review(188) -

Enemy Below, TheDVD ~ Robert Mitchum- In Stock.
List Price: $14.98 Price: $9.99 You Save: $4.99 (33%) "The Enemy Below Review.... below." - By Paul Farmer (Roseburg, Oregon, USA)
The seminal battle between the veteran warriors tired of a pointless war, you will see it's legacy in many "cat and mouse" dramas where the two protagonists are trying to out think (out guess?) each other. There is a homage (french for ripoff?) to the movie in a Star Trek episode involving Kirk and a Romulan commander in a shielded Warbird. An interesting aside is that one of the co-stars was a young David Hedison who found some fame later on TV as another submarine 1st officer in "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea". The interestingest piece of that is that he apparently went by Al Hedison in his early career. Great movie... enjoy!(1,151) -

"Jet-Propelled Action !" - By peterfromkanata (Kanata, Ontario Canada)
"The Hunters" is a well-made, exciting Korean war drama, with the accent on aviation. It has an above-average plot for this type of film, and the whole movie, particularly the aerial sequences, is expertly directed by Dick Powell. If you are interested in combat aircraft, there are many scenes of F-86 Sabre Jets engaging MIGs in dogfight battles to the death.
While the planes are great to watch, this film is primarily about human beings caught up in war. It stars Robert Mitchum, and he is terrific--his fighter pilot character is a born leader, yet he also suspects there is something important missing in his life. He enters into a guilt-ridden relationship with the wife of another pilot, played by lovely May Britt. When there's a war on though, the feelings of two people aren't worth--as someone once said--"a hill of beans". Mr. Mitchum's main job is to lead a ... full review(192) -

"and it turns into a very good move about people at war" - By Higgins
No, it's not historically accurate... and there was the weird choice of a soulless lounge singer song to start the movie, which was a big wtf? The lyrics were appropriate but the style... you'd think Eric Idle was the producer. But get past the inaccuracies, get past the lounge singer, and it turns into a very good move about people at war. If you're expecting to learn much about what happened at Anzio, you won't find it here. The movie is mostly fiction, but in that context it is a good movie.(144) -

"I Love Robert Mitchum!" - By patricia c. (Wisconsin)
I have loved this movie since I first saw it as a youngster - it is still one of the best - I have always loved Robert Mitchum - what female doesn't? - I love the sweetness of the relationship between him and Deborah Kerr's character - I love that he wanted to marry her, take care of her - in my own version, she doesn't take her final vows, and actually DOES end up with him! - but I do that all the time if a movie doesn't end the way I want it to! - this is a great movie which had stood the test of time - anyone who has never seen it ought to get it - you'll not be disappointed!(465)
