User Submitted Auntie Mame Reviews October 28, 2008 An oldie but goodie What can I say...It is a classic and the DVD itself is of great quality
September 19, 2008 Another grrrreat movie! I loved this movie and I was thrilled to get it. It was in perfect condition and arrived before the estimated delivery date! Thanks!
September 18, 2008 The true Auntie Mame! Mame Dennis takes her orphaned nephew on the ride of a lifetime in this often touching and always hilarious film! As the single uncle of an entire clan of (biological & non-biological) nephews & nieces, Auntie Mame is a great role model for Uncle Craigie! I try to teach my minions to "Live, Live, Live! Life's a Banquet and most poor suckers are starving to death!"
September 17, 2008 Great family movie (kids 9+) Even though this movie is old, it is a classic containing love, warmth, friendship, and humor. Rosilind Russell is wonderful!
September 3, 2008 Live! Live! Live! This is one of my all-time favorite movies and a far superior movie to its musical counterpart MAME with Lucille Ball. It's a great movie for anyone who likes to veer off the mainstream. Rosalind Russell is wonderful as Auntie Mame who is always living life to the fullest no matter what difficult circumstances she may find herself in. That she is able to pass this positive attitude on to her nephew and her secretary is her great acheivement. This funny, touching movie is one I can and have watched over and over when I'm feeling a little down in order to lift my spirits.
August 26, 2008 Dah-link...what HAVE you got on???? OK...this is a near perfect film. By all means don't miss it.
But, as a costume designer, I must complain about the costumes. They are outrageous and lov-er-ly, but this film was made in 1958 and all the clothes are 1958....which would be OK if the actual story didn't take place from 1929 - 1941. Since the passage of time is so very important in this film, why did the designer ignore period styles? (They didn't in the dreary musical version) I don't care if it is super accurate or not, but to just make it all MODERN clothes? (for 1958) This show is a designer's dream: wealthy society types, north and south, for 3 decades running? Sign me up! I deduct one star for ignoring the period.
But the rest is perfect (even the clothes that are there are "right" in feel, just not in style) so buy it and watch it over and over.
August 15, 2008 Auntie Mame Great film that has a wonderful cast headed by Rosalind Russell. Makes you want to view the world as a stage and enjoy all of the amazing cast and scenes as your own personal production. Enjoyed sharing it with my 67 your old mother as much as my 8 year old niece- both loved it! If only life were as simple as enjoying the gifts it has to offer while riding out the rough spots with a positive attitude and class. A film like "It's a Wonderful Life" that should be watched (at least) once a year!!!
July 30, 2008 I LOVE AUNTIE MAME !!!!!!! THIS MOVIE IS ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITES. IT IS A CLASSIC THAT CAN BE ENJOYED BY THE ENTIRE FAMILY.
July 11, 2008 great movie Love this movie. I got it for my sisters grandchildren because she takes them on trips all over and I told them she is just like Auntie Mame and they didn't know who that was. They go to Hawaii and are planning to go to Costa Rica. They are 12 and 14 and should relate to Patrick and Auntie Mame.
June 27, 2008 Life's a banquet a timeless touching and funny story- you'll be quoting it for years to come...it's top drawer, just top drawer...
