Mame (DVD, 2007)

Luciel Ball is splendid in this movie! I enjoyed it verry much bea arthur was a smash as her best back stabbing buddy.this movie will make you smile it has humor and tender moments it also reminds us to have some fun while were here! I recomend it highly!

Lucille Ball gives a memorable perfomance as the eccentric Auntie Mame, Mame is an underrated musical with a great cast and production value. Mame is a highly enjoyable musical , even though Lucille Ball's vocal aren't the greatest it is still fun to watch. When Mame was released in the mid 70s (1974) Broadway musicals had fallen out of fashion with the audience of that era, and were considered old fashion. Critics were brutal and unfair to this movie because many critics were upset that Angela Lansbury who originated the part on Broadway in 1966 did not recreate the title role in the movie version . To Sum it all up fairly Lucille Ball was great as Mame for the movie version and Angela Lansbury was great on Broadway

O.K., This has been critically smeared since the day it came out. Lucile Ball was said to have been, "Perfect for the role, 15 years ago". To Hell with critics!
I must say I was pleasantly surprised by this delightful film. Granted, Lucy does not hold a tune as well as the former Broadway actors who played Mame previously, but she sure has heck can act as well as or better than her predecessors.
Who wouldn't enjoy seeing a film with Bea Arthur as an alcoholic in denial, and Lucy exiting a department store with roller skates after being fired. There are lines that will bring you to tears just because of the Stars who are saying them!
The film quality is impressive, great cinematography, and flashy dance sequences make this film not just an old movie to be passed up by the eye at a glance. I would compare the film quality to Cabaret. It isn't grainy and choppy and full of obvious mistakes like some older musicals.
Mame is a great musical that has withheld the test of time, and the film version gives the stage production justice. Any Lucy or Golden Girls fan would love to own this Gem of a film. A must see for musical lovers of all ages!

I have a friend with Lung Cancer and one of his wishes was to watch this movie, hence I bought the movie to grant him one of his wishes.

I liked the original "Mame" and was told by a friend to see if I could get "Mame" through Ebay, sure enough I was able to find it. I enjoyed it very much and had my friends over my house to see and they enjoyed also.

i really love this movie it a real old classical movie and i love to watch it over and over again.
lucille ball is such a funny lady how can you not love this movie with her in it.
my husand had never seen this movie and also loves it now.
not alot of action and adventure but thats what i like about the movie (lots of song and dance though),thats what makes the movie.
a must for a classic movie collection.
its also been colorized and it adds to the movie.

I bought this movie because I enjoyed it as a kid. I received this movie within a week of ordering it.

I collect Lucille Ball stuff, and I have found a lot of her stuff on ebay I find ther is a lot of stuff that I didn;t have that I could buy , on ebay and some of it is very reasonable .

THIS MOVIE IS LOADS OF FUN AND SOME TEARS, THIS MOVIE WAS MY GUIDE LINE ON THE TYPE OF UNCLE I WANTED TO BE FOR MY NIECE WHEN SHE CAME ALONG AND I WAS JUFT THAT SCOOPING HER UP EVERY SATURDAY AND GOING OUT FOR FUN AND SHE LOVED IT.
YOU MUST WATCH THIS MOVIE IN DVD AND CRT TV WILL NEVER SHOW THE DETAIL OF THE COSTUMES LIKE A FLAT SCREEN TV OR COMPUTER, I ALWAYS CRY AT THE END, THIS IS A GREAT MOVIE, MY NIECE IS NOW GOING ON 17 AND I STILL MAKE MAGIC LIKE MAME.

This is an excellent movie. There were other versions of "Mame" out on DVD for awhile with others stars in them but if you like Lucielle Ball this is the movie you should own. Mame is a wonderful movie you can watch over and over again!!!

Despite all the negative press this film received, MAME starring Lucille Ball, Bea Arthur and Robert Preston is a gem. Broadway purists bemoan the fact that Angela Lansbury was passed over for Lucy in the title role ... and granted, Lansbury can sing circles around Miss Ball. But Lucy's charm and comedy savvy make this very watchable, especially presented in widescreen for the first time on home video. The color, choreography and costumes are knockouts. The musical version dates far less than the wonderful Rosalind Russell non-musical AUNTIE MAME. Let's face it ... Roz was born to play the role, as was Angela on Broadway. But Lucy is Lucy and no fan should shun this release because of negative reviews. I've found that a whole new generation of viewers have been far more kind to this version than 1970s audiences.
If you love Lucy, you'll love MAME!

I bought this item because it is my wife's favorite movie. She had been looking for this title for many years. Most people didn't even know what movie she was talking about, let alone, where to purchase it. I wanted to give her this as a surprise gift for Christmas. I found it on e-bay, NEW . I knew I had to buy it for her. I was really surprised that it shipped as quickly as it did and was here in plenty of time for Christmas. This movie was by far her favorite gift, not just because she finally had it, but because I remembered that she had once mentioned it.

The product was in good condition , just like they said "new" and still in its wrapping. It arrived on good time and I have really enjoyed the heck out of this DVD-great music great story line and I love Lucille Ball!!
Thanks So Much buyer from Texas
