Amazon.com is holding a sales on classic Fox movies, each selling for $10, which is a healthy if not spectacular 33% off. Better, if you buy $25 dollars worth of stuff total, the shipping is free. And Amazon, unlike many Internet DVD venders now, does not charge sales tax. So the deal is better than it looks.
The top film by my lights is the fantabulous Mark of Zorro with Tyrone Power, but other winners include The Grapes of Wrath, All About Eve, The Day the Earth Stood Still (definately a must buy disc), My Darling Clementine, The Diary of Anne Frank, The Ghost & Mrs. Muir, The Three Faces of Eve and many, many more.
Moreover, lovers of classic chick flicks and/or camp devotees will purr in delight at the long list of four-hanky soapers: An Affair to Remember, A Letter to Three Wives, Leave Her to Heaven, Love is a Many-Spendored Thing, Peyton Place and Return to Peyton Place.
The complete list of films is here.
Those looking to hit the free shipping mark with something a little cheesier might look to the surprisingly decent Frankenfish, which Amazon is selling for $14, a hefty 43% off.
