Joan Plowright DVD

101 Dalmatians

Glenn Close, Jeff Daniels, Hugh Laurie, Joan Plowright, Joely Richardson
John Hughes' ("Sixteen Candles", "The Breakfast Club," "Ferris Bueller's Day Off") live-action remake (directed by Stephen Herek) of this beloved Disney animated classic is long on slapstick and other types of physical humor. It's easy to see Glenn Close's portrayal of evil dog-napping Cruella De Vil as a Disney variation of her manipulative, scary (and best-remembered) roles in "Fatal Attraction" and "Dangerous Liaisons." Glenn Close keeps Cruella close to her original cartoon origins, going deliciously and delightfully over the top.

I truly enjoyed this movie. Joan Plowright is a lovely lady and a wonderful actress. She has style of her own that is yet plain and simple but yet elegant. She showed being ederly, you still can have style and elegance. Rupert Friend, his character was a perfect gentlemen as helping elderly people. It was nice to see a movie where people aren't taking advantage of elderly people. But on another note, it was sad regarding her own family not there for her when she wanted them to.

Tea With Mussolini

Cher, Judi Dench, Joan Plowright, Maggie Smith, Lily Tomlin
Tea with Mussolini is loosely based on a biography of film maker Franco Zeffrelli. It's the story of several English women, referred to as the Scorpioni who live in Florence, Italy. They are all in love with Italy and happily take advantage of the great art and beauty of Florence. It's home to them!

The ladies have a small close community and a few of them become involved with Luca, who is the illegitimate son of a local man. After his mother dies, he's placed in an orphanage. The ladies are Mary (Joan Plowright), Arabella (Judi Dench) and Hester ( Maggie Smith), and all help to care for the boy in some way.

Avalon

Aidan Quinn, Elizabeth Perkins, Leo Fuchs, Eve Gordon, Lou Jacobi
On paper, writer-director Barry Levinson's semi-autobiographical Avalon, which begins with the arrival of Polish Jew Sam Krichinsky (Armin Mueller- Stahl) in the Avalon area of Baltimore, Md., on July 4, 1914, and ends when he is in his dotage on another July 4 sometime in the sixties, is an intellectually crystalline epic about the demise of the extended family, the erosion of traditional American and European values, the growth of alienated suburban culture (organized around television) and the hegemony of materialism.
