4 out of 5 stars Cheesy and awful, yet riveting..........2007-07-01

For some strange reason, this is one of those 'b' movies that I am compelled to sit and watch every time I come across it on cable. I don't know why. I just find it highly entertaining, and somehow riveting, even though it's cheesy and awful. It's like junk food. You know you could do a whole lot better... but you once you've opened the bag of chips, you're in it for the long haul.

4 out of 5 stars A great overlooked film.......2007-01-09

Why this movie bombed is beyond me. Maybe cause people were expecting to see the Rosanne they saw on the t.v. show. For a comedian turned actress, and early in her career, I thought Rosanne was awesome. So was the rest of the cast.

1 out of 5 stars FAT!.......2006-11-28

Why did Ed Bagel Jr. marry Roseanne Candy Barr in the first place? hahaha. He should have gone after attractive women like Ms. Streep his whole life and not fat slobs. Rosie almost gets to the point of sitting on Eddie Bagel, but luckily it doesn't come to that. Perhaps, if she did it could have cut a lot of wasted time off this crappy movie lol.

5 out of 5 stars My favorite movie.......2006-07-14

I kept watching this movie over the years. First time around, I bought VHS cassette, and today, I ordered DVD.

My first marriage was similar to Ruth's, but over time I was able to achieve an "ultimate revenge" of creating a loving second family, getting my degrees (including Graduate Degree), and becoming very successful in my career. This is why I experience such delight while watching this movie.

For all under-appreciated wives and mothers out there, this movie is a definite "confidence booster"! I keep recommending it to all my friends.

4 out of 5 stars MERYL'S SHOW.......2006-05-16

SHE DEVIL works mainly because of the hysterically wonderful performance of Meryl Streep. Not a real fan of Roseanne Barr, I must admit she pulls off her role quite well too, but it's Meryl who makes the movie as much fun as it is. Seeing this incomparable dramatic actress put so much into her role as Mary Fisher, the hoity toity author of bestselling romance novels while she's really as anti-romantic in her personal life is pure delight. Streep manages to whisk Roseanne's philandering husband (a good Ed Begley Jr.) away from her, but Barr has her own plans of revenge and achieves them. Sylvia Miles is delightful as Streep's saucy mother and there are a lot of great confrontations. Streep is the star though and she makes the She Devil devilishly fun.

Product Description

DESCRIPTION: The Hyde Park Free Concerts are legendary, and none more so than when the Rolling Stones performed there two days after the death of former bandmate Brian Jones back in 1969. What was always planned as a major show turned into a memorial with 500,000 people in attendance. Mick Jagger opens reading an excerpt from Shelley's poem Adonais as a dedication to Jones and releases thousands of butterflies. The film sees the Stones at their most raw and emotional. TRACKS: 1) Midnight Rambler; 2) Satisfaction; 3) I'm Free; 4) I'm Yours, She's Mine; 5) Jumping Jack Flash; 6) Honky Tonk Woman; 7) Love In Vain; 8) Sympathy For The Devil. ++++ DVD FEATURES: This officially licensed release from South Korea is All-Region NTSC Code 0 (plays worldwide) with Full Screen display (in color) and Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound in ENGLISH (includes optional English subtitles).

5 out of 5 stars "Satisfaction" is easy with this historic event!.......2007-06-15

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various recordings from the 60's and 70's.

July 5, 1969 is one of the most historic days in rock and roll. The Stones concert in London's Hyde Park would pay homage to the late Brian Jones and usher in the new and extraordinary era of Mick Taylor (1969-74).

For those that have looked to fault every possible second of the event and judge the release on only the musical portion and not include "The Event" it is only right equal time is given to counter the unneccesary critisism the gig received.

The typical complaint about any music DVD not recorded with a 34 billion dollar budget to the sound snob is the fidelity doesn't meet the quality standard. In 1969 you were not dealing with digital technology and preserving the moment is worth more stars than how the mix is.

It has been discussed that newcomer Mick Taylor looks nervous. That is earth shattering news. He had less than 48 hours notice the permits were in place and they could perform. If your first show was in front of over 100,000 people and your bandmates lost somebody that they had often spent more time with than their own families, if there weren't butterflies he wouldn't have a heart or soul.

Keith's guitar is out of tune during "Satisfaction." There is a first. No musician has ever had this before. It is amazing that any of the Stones could get through the day knowing Brian's departure is now in a permanent sense.

The band isn't inspired. Then why did they play the longest version of "Sympathy For The Devil" (19:00) ever performed? If you look at the complete list of songs regardless if they are included or not, they could have easily made the show a hit factory. There are a myriad of tunes that only a hardcore Stones aficionado would be able to name correctly.

The only knock that is justifable (Surprisingly it is the one thing the Skeptic's hadn't been thrilled to inform every Amazon review reader) the playing time of the DVD does not encompass the entire set. I have listed the songs and next to the ones that aren't found on the DVD will be the letters NF (Not Found).

To Brian Jones thank you for your incredible contribution to the Stones and to Mick Taylor there wasn't a better man for the job.

4 out of 5 stars Two Highballs.......2006-04-16

I received my copy of the Stones in the Park Friday night and it was great. I played it four times in a row and I was delighted by both the picture quality and the audio. My copy is Korean( I am Told ) and Iv'e been waiting 40 years for this one. The Stones are out of tune on "Satisfaction" and I didn't mind a bit, especially, after two or six Highballs.

3 out of 5 stars Get a glimpse into the tumultuous times of the 60s.......2006-01-14

For historical purposes this film rates as a classic. Typical of a late 60s rock show, though, we have Keith's guitar terribly out of tunes at times; especially on "Satisfaction." These documents stand as more than just a record of a concert, they give us a small glimpse back at the culture of the late 60s. Very nice dress Mick!

    5 out of 5 stars The better version.......2007-04-08

    This is the better version of this story. The later, short version with Roseanne Barr and Meryl Streep isn't as interesting despite Streep.
    This original was shown on American TV through either PBS or A & E. It was many episodes. It enravelled very gradually but much more realistically than the American version. I can't believe it hasn't been rendered to the North American format. This format nonsense is a real nuisance!

        Description

        THE CONFEDERATE SHE-DEVIL

        This is the tragic tale of a seventeen-year-old orphan named Marcelus Jerome Clarke and the infamous female outlaw Sue Mundy. The story is set against the backdrop of the guerrilla war on the border between the Union and the Confederacy. It is a bitter struggle fought under the black flag where the rules are simple, no quarter given and none expected. It is a harsh tale of violence, reprisal, corruption and deception. And it is also a story of loyalty, courage, duty and love.

        The story of Jerome Clarke is also the story of Kentucky, and the events that affected the state long after the war ended. Learn about the actions of a bitter newspaper editor, a corrupt military governor and a ruthless general looking for a scapegoat.

        Meet an unusual assortment of individuals in a world where truth is stranger than fiction. People like “Stovepipe Johnson” who perpetrated one of the most audacious deceptions of the Civil War. The Berry family, including John “One Arm” Berry the one-armed horseman and guerrilla fighter whose grandfather who at 76 was one of the oldest soldiers in the civil war. And Henry Magruder, who in spite of being only five feet tall, was a brutal and vicious killer. And of coarse the infamous female outlaw Sue Mundy.

        “SUE MUNDY, THE TIGRESS, SEEMS WHOLLY ABANDONED; LOST TO EVERY KIND, WOMANLY FEELINGS AND EXULING IN SCENES OF BLOOD LEADS HER DESPERATE FOLLOWERS ON TO THE PERPETRATION OF THE MOST DAMNABLE OUTRAGES.”

        LOUISVILLE JOURNAL 1864

        “SUE MUNDAY IS REPORTED TO SAY THAT SHE WON’T MARRY ANY MAN. WE GUESS SHE IS RESERVING HERSELF TO MARRY SATAN. THE POOR DEVIL WILL HAVE A HARD TIME OF IT. SHE WILL BROIL HIM ON HIS OWN GRIDIRON, BUTTER HIM ON HIS OWN BRIMSTONE AND TURN HIM ON HIS OWN PITCHFORK.”
