Rating: - Fine but no need for M*A*S*H again
I love Robert Altman movies and here are three rare ones, finally getting their due. But why is M*A*S*H included, when it was afforded a big two disc set treatment only a couple of year's previously? It would have been a far better idea to have added HEALTH, a really obscure Altman film, that barely got released. MASH was included to make sure their was a popular title in the mix, but to attract fans of the sitcom, not the movie. The Altman devotees, which this composite says is its target audience, ...

Rating:  - not such a bargain
Ive always been a big fan of robert altmans, and two of these films are certainly marvellous, the classic mash, unsurpassed, and a wedding, which is clever and funny, but the other two, quintet a perfect couple, are a little embarassing for an altman fan, as they really are pretty atrocious.But if youre a movie buff and altman can do no wrong, Im sure youll find some enjoyment even in those disasters.

There are a lot of divergent opinions about A WEDDING, QUINTET and A PERFECT COUPLE and, in the end, it probably ... Read More
Rating:  - A Perfect Couple Makes this a Necessity
A Perfect Couple - hadn't even heard of this endearing film until Alman's death and this is the only way to get it. It is worth the cost of the collection - of course the other titles don't hurt.
Rating: - ROBERT ALTMAN (FEBRUARY 20, 1925 - NOVEMBER 20, 2006)
Bob's Mini-Bio from Amazon's own IMDB:
Robert Altman was born on February 20th, 1925 in Kansas City, Missouri, to B.C. (an insurance salesman) and Helen Altman. He entered St. Peters Catholic school at the age six, and spent a short time at a Catholic high school.
