Rating:  - One Touch of Venus
I just watched my newly acquired black and white VHS of "One Touch of Venus," a movie I first saw while in grammar school years ago and never forgot. The entire cast is wonderful and perfectly matched and, of course, there could never be another Venus like Ava Gardner - a role made for her.

At the end, when Zeus calls Venus home, and then when she comes back as "Venus Jones," I still cry when she meets Robert Walker in the department store. I own the video but why is this fabuluous not on DVD?

It's a fun time - 90 minutes or so of losing yourself in a far out comedic ... Read More
Rating: - Wonderful Comedy!
A delightful romantic fantasy made even more so by Eve Arden as the wise-cracking secretary. This was, seemingly, the "inspiration" for the so-so 1987 movie, MANNEQUIN. Stick with the original! You won't be disappointed.
