Lies My Father Told Me (1975)
I saw this movie more than 20 years ago; it's beautiful.

Back in the 1970s, I played this movie at the Main Street Theatre, Flushing NY; which I was managing at the time. It did exceptional business in this predominantly jewish neighborhood, it also did well at other locations in the city. I loved it.

Imitation of Life (1934)
An excellent film; perhaps better than the re-make. I love it!

This has long been one of my favorite movies. Although the remake is in color, (and excellently done, I might add), this one has special attractions for me. For one thing, it has the incomparable Claudette Colbert at her peak, and a heart-rending performance by Louise Beavers. Of course it is a bit of a tear jerker, but it is a wonderful movie. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would not hesitate to give it an 8.
