Diane Richards — I Forgot About Love (’80s Soul Love Jam)


Lady Sings the Blues


Lady Sings the Blues


$9.26


Diana Ross stars as legendary blues singer Billie Holiday in this biopic that chronicles her rise and fall. It begins with her late childhood, a stint as a prostitute, those early days as a blues singer, her marriages, and her drug addiction. Overly glossy and lacking depth, this is worth seeing only for the performances. Diana Ross was nominated for an Oscar for her acting debut. A dynamo with sp…

In King’s book, the Overlook Hotel is a haunted place that takes possession of its off-season caretaker and provokes him to murderous rage against his wife and young son. Kubrick’s movie is an existential Road Runner cartoon (his steadicam scurrying …

Looking for Mr. Goodbar [VHS]


Looking for Mr. Goodbar [VHS]


$9.95


Based on the mid-’70s novel by Judith Rossner (which itself was based on a true story), this film was supposed to be the one that established Diane Keaton’s credibility as a “serious” actress–and yet she won the Oscar for the other film she did the same year, Annie Hall. Still, Looking for Mr. Goodbar is a solid and intriguing film, which offered the first substantial film roles to Richard Gere…
