Danielle Steel 2 DVD Collection (Palomino / Secrets / Star / The Promise)

Danielle Steel 2 DVD Collection (Palomino / Secrets / Star / The Promise) Review

After waiting so many years, The Promise is now on Danielle Steel's 2 DVD Collection. My wife and I watched this movie when it first came out in the 70's and loved it. It is a great love story and Stephen Collins and Kathleen Quinlan have wonderful chemistry together.

We have not seen the other 3 movies in this set yet as we just got the DVD, but for the price you pay on Amazon for this 2 disc set, The Promise alone is worth every cent paid!

My wife and I are 60 and this movie brings back so many wonderful memories for us.

For the new generation, watch it. We're sure you will love it as much as we did and still do. After all, love is universal and transcends generations.

Danielle Steel 2 DVD Collection (Palomino / Secrets / Star / The Promise) Specifications

Girls, this is just what the doctor ordered: A cozy, romantic boxed set of some of Danielle Steel's best escapist films--like the best of Lifetime Movie Network condensed into two fabulous discs. The set contains four films, including the little-seen but deeply involving The Promise, starring a lovely young Kathleen Quinlan and Stephen Collins, pre-7th Heaven--even pre-Sisters. The two play college sweethearts whom fate brings together in a jarring, violent way--forcing them to make a chain of decisions that will affect their lives forever. Quinlan and Collins have believable chemistry and their longing is palpable. Bonus: the production values are extremely high, including a score by David Shire, and direction by Gil Cates (perhaps most famous as the director of the Academy Awards broadcasts). The other films include:

• Palomino, a tale of worldly city gal finding her inner ranch hand--and true love in the arms of a wrangler--in rugged California horse country. Lindsay Frost and Peter Bergman have palpable sexual tension, and the always-welcome Eva Marie Saint makes a memorable cameo.
• Secrets, starring Josie Bissett (an actress talented enough to lead her own TV series) as a soap star who finds the juice and intrigue off camera every bit as knotty as her show's plotlines.
• Star, with Jennie Garth and Craig Bierko as lovers for whom time, distance, and enormous difference of circumstance matter not when they unexpectedly reunite years later.

So heat up the tea and popcorn; this disc is a perfect girls' weekend, whether you have several girlfriends joining you or just your own sweet comfy self. --A.T. Hurley
