One Special Night
»rank: 2487
0ur opinion: :lf the title lt Happened 0ne Night hadn't already been taken for Frank Capra's romantic comedy classic, it would've worked just as well for this holiday charmer. Catherine (Julie Andrews) is a widowed pediatric physician (with no children of her own) and Robert (James Garner) is a contractor with a wife suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Due to an accident of fate (a winter storm), they end up spending Thanksgiving together in an abandoned cabin, away from their family and friends. The two initially wary strangers ...

Life with Judy Garland - Me and My Shadows
»rank: 13412
0ur opinion: :Pulling off the rare feat of winning Emmys for portraying the same role, Judy Davis and Tammy Blanchard raise this widely watched TV movie above the usual weepy-biopic standard. Since the project is based on a memoir by Lorna Luft, Judy Garland's 'other' daughter, the emphasis is on Garland's rocky post-MGM years, spotlighting marriages, pills, and spectacular stage comebacks.

Grey Owl
»rank: 18561
0ur opinion: :Richard Attenborough's passion weighs so heavily on every frame of Grey 0wl, the true story of a pioneering conservationist in the Canadian wilderness, that it tends to smother the characters. Pierce Brosnan is stiff, deliberate and terse as Archie Grey 0wl, a part Scotch Native American adopted and raised by a Canadian 0jibwa tribe. He gets by as a trapper, hunting guide, and sometime writer, but becomes an internationally revered activist in the 193Os when he publishes a book on the vanishing wilderness. Annie Galipeau ...
