"Actor: Curd Jürgens"

• The Inn of the Sixth Happiness | DVD | (17/04/2019) from £8.99   |  Saving you £3.00 (42.92%)   |  RRP £9.99

  An epic and extraordinary true story--or, at least, an extraordinary story based on a novel (Alan Burgess's The Small Woman) based on a true story. Gladys Aylward (an improbably mesmerizing Ingrid Bergman) is a British would-be missionary with an obsession about China. As she has no experience, the Missionary Society won't let her go, but she goes anyway, alone, to a remote northern province. She is hated, then loved; finally she becomes both a significant political figure and the heroine of a miraculous escape in which she shepherds 100 children to safety across the mountains just ahead of a Japanese invasion. Curt Jurgens is suitably stony as Lin Nan, the half-Dutch, half-Chinese military officer who falls in love with her, and a visibly ailing Robert Donat (who died before this, his final film, was released) is the wily local mandarin who sees and makes use of her extraordinary abilities. Directed by Mark Robson, The Inn of the Sixth Happiness is a sweeping, stirring tearjerker, a big tale told in a big landscape with acres of orchestrated strings by Malcolm Arnold. A beautiful and beautifully made film that's a classic of the "everyone said I couldn't but I did it anyway" genre. --Richard Farr

• The Spy Who Loved Me | Blu Ray | (04/02/2013) from £12.99   |  Saving you £7.00 (53.89%)   |  RRP £19.99

  The best of the James Bond adventures starring Roger Moore as tuxedoed Agent 007, this globe-trotting thriller introduced the steel-toothed Jaws (played by seven-foot-two-inch-tall actor Richard Kiel) as one of the most memorable and indestructible Bond villains. Jaws is so tenacious, in fact, that Moore looks genuinely frightened, and that adds to the abundant fun. This time Bond teams up with yet another lovely Russian agent (Barbara Bach) to track a pair of nuclear submarines that the nefarious Stromberg (Curt Jürgens) plans to use in his plot to start World War III. Featuring lavish sets designed by the great Ken Adam (Dr. Strangelove), The Spy Who Loved Me is a galaxy away from the suave Sean Connery exploits of the 1960s, but the film works perfectly as grandiose entertainment. From cavernous undersea lairs to the vast horizons of Egypt, this Bond thriller keeps its tongue firmly in cheek with a plot tailor-made for daredevil escapism. --Jeff Shannon

Short of options, Mitch and Janet agree she'll spend the night in his spare room. Mitch has chosen early retirement from theatrical life in the face of competition from a new tribe of wannabe Brandos: This is the age of dirty T-shirts and motorcycle jackets... If you don't know Method and how to mumble, slouch, and pick your nose, you haven't got a chance. But his worldy-wise on-off girlfriend Nita Holloway (Alexis Smith) is determined to drag him back onto the stage. Janet, now desperate for work, accepts a role as Mitch's secretary, and begins a playful flirtation with the older man, who in turn is seduced by her girlish charms. But Bill, right next door, is also smitten: cue a four-way tug-of-love between youth and experience, hope and wisdom from which all or none may emerge as victors. Adapted by Blake Edwards from the F. Hugh Herbert play For Love or Money, This Happy Feeling is a whimsical chronicle of romance, rivalry, true callings and contentment in art and life.
