 Get the movie you want January 31, 2009

When I think of a movie I haven't seen in a while, Amazon's got it. I love that I can see/own the movie I want! I ordered three movies to watch for the holidays. They came just in time to watch for Christmas. "Stella" is one of my favorite tear jerkers. Thanks Amazon for making my holiday great!
Excellent movie with painless delivery January 18, 2009

Great movie...a followup to the original which stared Barbara Stanwyck. Every bit as good. Just a few difference's in the plot, but in whole stayed on track. Get out your tissue's with this one. Even my husband had tears at the end of both of the movies. Seriously, you need to purchase both if you can. I rate both as a 5 star and amazon made it easily as promised with the delivery date as promised.

Bette Midler shines in "Stella". This is one of her great performances. It is very heartwarming and anyone can relate to it.The entire cast is excellent! Kudos!

Writing this review was something I wanted to do after I got done seeing "Stella" with Bette Midler (DVD rental). I didn't expect much because even though I like Bette she has never moved me as others have like Barbra Streisand but I was surprised how much I liked the movie. I think the acting was wonderful and everyone was good in his or her roles. Finding someone to play Bette Midler's daughter probably was not easy but the casting department hit a home run with Trini Alvarado.
This movie could have been better if it were treated more importantly. While watching the movie I kept thinking that with the right cinematography (more close ups of Bette, especially when she is trying to make her daughter believe that she doesn't want her anymore...she is at the sink in the kitchen and she has to turn around and let her have it...you could tell Stella was thinking "okay, here it goes, this better be good) and to dim the lights in the bar...too much light...didn't look realistic). A strong director and better editor could have polished this movie up to a high gloss shine.
Some of the story did not ring true and could have been more consistent...like Stella going down to Florida and dressing and acting outrageously, while during the rest of the film her appearance was not so extreme.
Sorry the DVD did not have extras...it also was not treated very importantly.
All in all very entertaining...thank you, Miss Bette, you are divine!
ANOTHER STELLAR PERFORMANCE FROM THE DIVINE MISS M! February 16, 2007

This movie was Bette's best performance since "The Rose". Definitely worth seeing and having for your DVD library. The pain she went through when she decided she wanted to give her daughter up to a better life was just amazingly unselfish. I would have given it a 10 if there were 10 stars! I only wish the Divine Miss M would make more movies like this!
