Movie Reviews

Pleasure to watch and listen to...
W. C. Johnson | 09/20/2007

"Nothing really technical to say about these movies. If you love old films with their simple plot, and the sensational singing voice of Mario Lanza, then don't think twice about getting these rare collectibles. The film is exceptionally restored with vivid colors and crisp sound. If you like it, buy it!"
Mario acts as well as sings

"These movies were so great. I remember seeing "Toast of New Orleans" when I was a very small girl. I fell in love with that handsome face and smile of Mario Lanza and I tried to sing like Kathryn Grayson for years. I hope to get all the Lanza movies. I will enjoy these for years to come."
It was about time to have Mario Lanza on DVD

"This DVD is simply wonderful. I really hope we have the chance to buy the other Mario Lanza films."
That Midnight Kiss, and The Toast of New Orleans

"That Midnight Kiss and The Toast of New Orleans take us back to a time in the history of film making that has never been equalled. Everything about these films seems to work. The stars were superb, and the costumes and sets were magnificent. The stories were light and frothy, and there were no real attempts to create "real" stories. The audiences happily suspended their disbelief, and were contnent to be carried away by the beauty and purity of the music. Kathryn Grayson and Mario Lanza were magnificent singers and were perhaps at their best in opera and operatic inspired music, a regular feature of films starring these two singers. We may well have been seeing the beginning od "crossover" music here. These films represent the best in production values of their day, and were made in 1949 and 1950 when the world was still expressing the joys of the early Post-War period. Definitely 5 star."
