He masterfully balances the story between family life and the ugly business of crime in which they are engaged. Based on Mario Puzo's best-selling novel, this graphic and brilliant film garnered ten Academy Award nominations.

Zach loves his ex-wife. he loves her so much he's willing to do anything to get her back. Except give up women. Give up booze. Or go back to work. Blake Edwards (The Pink Panther series) scores another perfect 10 in this hilarious account of a middle-aged little boy's attempt to grow up. John Ritter (Hooperman, Three's Company) is a heartbreaker in both senses of the word as Zach, stumbling haplessly along a road to maturity strewn with banana peels and beautiful babes. Gag-packed and explosively funny, Skin Deep is highlighted by a glow-in-the-dark sequence that will go down in comedy history: Ii can't describe it to you, I can't show it to you, but this film has one of the biggest laughts at the movies."

Gene Shalit - "My favorite holiday story is "A Christmas Carol", written by Charles Dickens in 1843 and since then adapted for every known form of communication except Aztec smoke signals. There have been at least eight movie versions... but the single enduring version is the 1950 film starring Alastair Sim as Ebenezer Scrooge. The story flows with happiness and remorse; it teaches a lesson; it is a gripping ghost story; it spreads before us a vivid picture of 19th century London; and it's central character is all that drama can offer; a figure who undergoes a monumental change and fills us with good feelings. The spell cast by the spirits of Christmas Past, Christmas Present, and Christmas Yet To Come make "A Christmas Carol" an incomparable Christmas...present."

A lone hero battles for the future of mankind. In 1978, a young film director released his first commercial feature Mad Max - and the moviegoing world was astounded by an all-out cinema blitz that became an instant cult classic. Now, director George Miller has gone a dramatic step farther in conception and technique. The result is The Road Warrior, an epic of action and carnage that comes at you full speed, sweeping you into a dreamlike landscape where the post-nuclear future meets the mythological past. It's also one of the most mind-blowing stunt films ever to hit the screen. In his most popular movie role, Mel Gibson plays Max, who drives the roads of outback Australia in a never-ending search for gasoline. Lining up against him are the bizarre warriors of Lord Humungus, decked out in heavy-metal costumes heralding a new barbaian age. The battle is joined over a fueldepot encampment - and the results are savage and spectacular. Miller, who co-directed the equally spellbinding successor Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, credits as source material everything from Arthurian legends to comic books and Samurai movies, wherein the hero, Miller says, "is always a lone, fairly amoral seeker....There's no real hope for him but because of some particular talent he's got -like Max's skill on the highway - he's able to give a new order." With The Road Warrior, the new order is born. And it's a blast.
