2. 101 Things I Wish I Knew When I Got Married: Simple Lessons to Make Love Last
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: With the divorce rate spiking at a dizzying 60 percent, it's safe to assume that young couples and experienced partners alike may lack the skills and understanding necessary to sustain a committed relationship. Psychotherapists Linda and Charlie Bloom present 101 techniques delivering practical guidance and make it clear that, regardless of past experience, anyone can develop the basic strengths, skills, and capacities needed for a great relationship. Each lesson is presented as a simple, one-line thought followed by an explanation using real life examples from the authors' own experiences in sustaining their marriage of 31 years to those of the thousands of couples they've professionally counseled or who have taken the Blooms' life relationship seminars. This book demonstrates how anyone can find ways out of a painful relationship, and how couples can enrich their own relationships through working through love's challenges.
3. The Prophet
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the
moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses
nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the
man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's gift to us, as well, for Gibran's
prophet is rivaled in his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great
religions. On the most basic topics--marriage, children, friendship, work,
pleasure--his words have a power and lucidity that in another era would surely
have provoked the description "divinely inspired." Free of dogma, free of
power structures and metaphysics, consider these poetic, moving aphorisms a
20th-century supplement to all sacred traditions--as millions of other readers
already have.
1. Love Songs Original Release Date: 1996
Avg. Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com:
Culled
from the Columbia Records reissue packages, variously released under the
multivolume Quintessential Billie Holiday umbrella, this package goes straight
for the love songs, the heart of Holiday. Ranging from such playful lyrics as
"Let's Do It" and "Them There Eyes" to such essential Holiday as "You Go to My
Head," "The Very Thought of You," and "Easy Living," this set is guaranteed to
keep the home fires burning brightly. Lay this one on your lover next
Valentine's Day. As was so frequently the case with Holiday, the ensemble
support is impeccable, including many of the swingers from Columbia's
Greatest Hits package. The bonus here is
Count Basie on piano, leading his swinging big band on "They Can't Take That
Away from Me."
2. The Romantic Moods of Jackie Gleason [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED] Original Release Date: 1996
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: Jackie Gleason was one of the entertainment world's renaissance men. He was an accomplished comedian, actor, arranger, and composer. His music will forever serve as his living legacy. His works set the standard for many of the great musicians who followed, including Mantovani, Mauriat, and others. Romantic Moods eloquently captures the soft, sultry, and seductive sounds from an era that was Jackie's alone. Jackie could not read a note of music, yet he composed and arranged some the of finest music ever recorded in America. He was a gifted artist who could blend the sounds from a crystal-clear coronet, with a simmering sax, soaring strings, and a deep, resonant bass to create an ambiance for romance, reflection, and rapture. From his signature work "Melancholy Serenade" to contemporary classics like "Ruby" and "Misty," the music flows like vintage wine...
3. Love Songs Original Release Date: 1998
Avg. Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: There was a time, before Karen Carpenter was born, when most American female popular singers, even the black ones, sounded a lot like the way she would one day sound. The music of singer-drummer Carpenter and her piano-playing brother Richard came to be called soft rock, but it's really just good, straight American pop. This CD, released in March 1998, is a collection of greatest hits, with a special emphasis on romance. Paul Williams, Burt Bacharach, Sam Lewis, and Victor Young provide lovely melodies, and Carpenter's expressive voice makes each song genuinely affecting.
(1989) ~ DVD
Avg. Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: Nora Ephron wrote the brisk screenplay for this 1989 romantic comedy, director Rob Reiner made a nicely glossy New York story (very much in a Woody Allen vein) out of it, and Billy Crystal's unstoppable charm made it something really special. Crystal and Meg Ryan play longtime platonic friends who keep dancing around their deeper feelings for one another, and Bruno Kirby and Carrie Fisher are their respective pals who fall in love and get married. Ryan doesn't get a lot of funny material, but her performance is typically alive and intuitive, and she more than holds her own with Crystal's comic motor mouth and sweet sentimentality.
(2001) ~ DVD
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: It's easy to be skeptical when a couple of well-connected actors throw a script together, start shooting their fabulous friends with digital cameras, and call it a movie. But Jennifer Jason Leigh and Alan Cumming, who bonded in Cabaret on Broadway, have crafted a rough little gem in The Anniversary Party. Influenced by Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and The Player, it's a devastating portrait of a fragile marriage and a perceptive look at life in Hollywood. The characters are based--to an eerie degree--on their Hollywood counterparts: Kevin Kline and Phoebe Cates are a Shakespeare-quoting actor and his retired actress wife; Gwyneth Paltrow is a rising young starlet; etc. Leigh is an actress on the way down, and Cumming, a best-selling author and up-and-coming director, is the sexually ambiguous husband with whom she has recently reconciled. The titular party is to celebrate their sixth anniversary, and revelations about the characters accumulate as the evening progresses from a tense session of charades to an ecstasy-pill-fueled blowout by the pool. The screenplay combines brittle humor with melodrama and consists of more talk than action (as in the Dogme films that inspired it), but the proceedings are rarely less than compelling even if the characters, for the most part, aren't exactly the most likable bunch. As a result, Jennifer Beals ends up stealing the show from the bigger names in the cast simply by emerging as the most genuinely human character--the one who actually showed up to honor her friends' commitment rather than to advance her career.
(1992) ~ DVD
Avg.
Customer Rating:
From Amazon.com: In 1992, Woody Allen and Mia Farrow--heretofore the Lunt and Fontanne of Hollywood on the Hudson--went public with a media-saturated battle over Allen's affair with Farrow's adopted daughter. Only a few months later, Allen released this film, starring himself and Farrow acting out a virtually identical plot line: an unhappy marriage begins to crumble when the husband strays with a much younger woman (in this case, one of his students, played by Juliette Lewis). It turned out to be one of Allen's most lacerating comedies, a story about the fragility of relationships and the foolishness of older men seeking to recapture their youth with younger women. It features strong performances by Judy Davis, Liam Neeson, and director Sydney Pollack, as a friend of Allen's who chucks his longtime wife for an aerobics instructor, thus planting seeds of marital dissolution in all of his friends' heads. Husbands and Wives provided an uncanny peek into Allen's image of himself and his personal life, despite all of his protestations to the contrary. | ||||||||
