Adventures in Paradise (1959–1962)
9/10
Make it available to everyone
26 January 2007
My life was changed by this series of Adventures. Like the amicable Captain of the Tiki III My life became one of adventure in the South Pacific. Traveling through the Micronesean Islands, Yap, Ulithi, Enewetok, Anguar Palau, Kwajalein, Wake, Kure, always brought me back to the days when I first watched this series on Television, never to miss an episode, I was able to recreate the adventures to some degree in my own life. It is true that one can achieve the vast number of friends throughout the islands in a short few years especially when sailing the speed of a Schooner in the Tropics. The interesting item is that on many of the islands I visited in the early 1960's I found the natives living the same as they depicted in the Series. The true grass skirts, kimonos, mumus, the grass huts and bamboo framing of the native houses. How idillic to have all my dreams proved to be fact. The memories will live with me forever. Now I beg the copyright owners to provide the entire series in sequential DVD's or VHS to allow the younger generation to know the facts that they too can follow in the adventures in the South Pacific. Live the life that you desire through the adventures of this series. I did it and so can you. James A. Mitchner's writings came from experience, and need to be shared with the world in boxed sets. Lets all put forth the effort to have these series and other old series made available to everyone.

Angel (1983)
10/10
Donna proves her acting abilities
27 July 2006
I've had this movie in my library for many years and view it often since it is extremely hard for a twenty year old to play the part of a fifteen year old high school student. Donna excels in her Role as Angel, especially her acting ability as a teen playing an adult. This movie does not get enough showing due to the nudity, however the content and storyline should give teens a closer view of what abandoned teens are forced to struggle with in our dangerous society. Kudos to the entire cast for a job well done, and special credits to Donna for her outstanding performance. You need to update her bio, with photos, and provide her latest work. Thanks.
