Movie Reviews of Mahogany
Movie Review: Mahogany is not a musical, it's a drama...
Summary: 4 Stars
I generally read reviews for items I want, not items I own, but for some reason, I read some of the Mahogany reviews.
Someone referred to this movie as a musical, but it's not. It's an interesting drama. It is the "rags" to riches story. I put quotations around "rags" because, truly, Tracey Chambers was not in rags, she was just in the wrong line of work.
She did become a fashion model, but along the way, fell in love with a politician and the crux of the movie is the struggle for her to gain her own career and not become the silent supporter of her man's career.
In the end, she chose to come home and be with her man because she realized that "success means nothing if you have no one to share it with" which is what Brian, her man, says to her.
This is one of my favorite movies, but also a movie that pisses me off because Brian, the politician, spends a lot of time demeaning Tracey's choice of work and her career ambition, only to tell her that his job is more meaningful.
Movie Review: Mahogany,Fantastic 70s Film
Summary: 4 Stars
This is one classic movie from the 70s Terrific move.Dianna Ross & Cast are great.One thing though,for being such a great movie of the 70s why does Paramount put this Dvd out with not much thought?.I gave it 4 stars only because the least the studio could have done is re-master the sound in stereo.
I mean come on in this day and age is it that hard Paramount Studios? Extras would have been great too.Iwould have even paid a few extra bucks if even the sound would have been re-mastered.Great movie & story though & a piece of 70s History & Miss Ross.
Movie Review: I remember Mahogany
Summary: 4 Stars
When I found this movie on Amazon, I was thrilled. I had totally forgotten the movie until that fateful moment I saw it online. I purchased some other movies on Amazon that day and they all arrived quickly and were reasonably priced. I had not seen this movie since it came out back in the day. It's fun seeing what we wore back then and listening to Ms.Ross sing with her marvelous voice took me back... I love shopping on Amazon because there is such a variety and the prices are so reasonable!Movie Review: Love Beats All
Summary: 4 Stars
I've always loved this movie, mostly for the fashion and photography. It's a good story line about striving to achieve your dreams despite the odds and others trying to talk you out of pursuing your dream. Tracy Chambers (played by Diana Ross) reached her dream but gave it up for the love of "Billy Dee Williams" without flipping a coin.Movie Review: Mahogany
Summary: 4 Stars
The movie has a few flaws but once again Miss Ross shows us just how talented she is by designing all of the clothing for the movie. Plus having a number one hit song from the movie.It must be hard to be beautiful and talented.
