Danielle Steel The Promise Views

General Goods

Secrets sports a pretty decent cast acting out a drama-packed, silly, phoney Hollywood tell-naught story. Plummer clearly has the acting chops to know when to downplay, which he admirably does here. Despite my little dig above, Beacham and Collins are just fine here, and Linda Purl, as always, is excellent. Always on the verge of bigger things, Purl (for whatever reasons) never really crossed over, but she's worked steadily, and in Hollywood, that can be even more important than hitting it big. As with all of the Danielle Steel adaptations, gloss is king, and Secrets has a dark, burnished look to it that eases over some of the more unfortunate scenes (Plummer's ridiculous plea on behalf of actors on the witness stand). Cruise this one at 1:00 in the morning, and trust me, it will not harsh your Bud Light buzz.

The oddball of the lot here in the Danielle Steel: 2 DVD Collection, The Promise was actually a theatrical release from 1979, starring Kathleen Quinlan and Stephen Collins. And believe it or not, when I was a kid, I was dragged into a theater with my Mom and Grandmother to see it (God, don't ask. Please.). So, after the initial, terrifying memories of that afternoon subsided (here's a hint: my Gammy brought Werther's Originals -- the hard ones), I settled down for this tearjerker extraordinaire.

I am not a fan of the author nor i read love story novels but i do watch romantic movies and i am particular in looking for this movie entitled the promise based on the novel by danielle steel. It is an old movie in the seventies or eighties and i want to watch it again. so, do any one of you have any idea how i can get hold of it? i have asked and search in the net but to no avail that is why i thought of a long shot question here on mylot.thanks.
