Crazy from the Heart [VHS]

A personal favorite of mine and my Grandma's. Have been searching for this VHS for awhile . As soon as It was delivered I watched with my Husband , quality was great

Just like the types of people Mike Rowe honors in his "Dirty Jobs" show.I saw this movie eons ago on Lifetime TV. I found it in a tape rental store at one point in time and watched it, but forgot it existed until I caught the tail end of it on a VCR tape I was using to record my soap operas during the week. Surfing the internet, I found that I could buy it and I did.Christine Lahti stars as the high school principal who is engaged to the track coach at the same high school. Rather than get married like she wants, the coach keeps putting her off, leading Charlotte (Lahti) to doubt her love for the coach. Enter in the janitor hired by the school district to fix Charlotte's leaky toilet. After blowing him off at first, she finally relents and goes on a date with him only to travel to Mexico on their first date. I won't say more than that to keep from spoiling it.Fantastic movie that is worth watching again and again.

Both of the male leads in the movie reminded me of my boyfriend of 10 years. He was Hispanic, very romantic, and I loved dancing with him. He still wouldn't get off his duff and marry me. We had broken up for over five years when I showed it to him and his mother. He, of course, identified himself with the Hispanic lead, without seeing how he lost the love he could have had with me. Afterwards, he said something like "See, this is what real love is like." I felt like shouting back at him... "SEE! This is what REAL LOVE is like!"I enjoyed every bit of it. The pyro father, Brent Spiner as the school administrator, the attraction of a nice pair of legs from the viewpoint of the toilet, the mother's consolation of "Who's ahead in the game?", and the young lovers, both of whose parents thought their child was too good for a teen pregnancy.One of my favorite movies, Ever.

First of all why do people give a movie a bad rating because they had a bad experience with the seller?? Use the feedback rating!! That's why it's there! Now getting back to the movie what can I say that others haven't? When I'm depressed I watch this movie because it makes me cry, smile, and leaves me with a feeling of happiness. My favorite part is when Christine Lahti goes on her first date with Reuben Blades and gets drunk. To me the scene is a classic. From being a stuffy prude to learning how much life has to offer and how wonderful it can be no matter what others think is the moral here. I love this movie and can watch it over and over again and never get tired of it. It truly is a gem that will leave with you a wonderful feeling all over. You won't be disappointed!

i loved this movie when i saw it on tv,however when i ordered the vhs tape the condition of the tape was terrible,constant lost of movie thru out the movie ,so bad youu could not understand any of the music in the background,like the tape had slimmage,not worth the expense of ordering this movie.i feel like i was cheated out of my money

I remember seeing this movie on television many years ago, on one of the Turner stations, and fell in love with it. I searched the planet for the video (that was before DVD) and when I finally found it I was bummed to see that the cost was right around $100. No matter, I paid because I just had to have it. I hope it comes out on DVD so that many more people will have the opportunity to see this wonderful movie. It was the first time I fell in love with Christine Lahti as an actor and I have never turned back.

My parents had seen this movie a long time ago & waited to buy it until it was relatively cheap. I ordered it for them & watched it with them. They loved it, & I liked it. I'm not much for the romance genre but this was okay. The humor was a bit too dry for me, but my parents got big laughs out of all the jokes & there were some very funny moments for me too. I would personally give it 4 stars but since my parents enjoyed it so much I'm going to give it 5 stars for them.

My husband and I often ask each other why our favorite movies are not very well known. "Crazy..." is one of these. I find that many of them have a common sensibility, namely a cross-cultural appeal. I don't even want to go there -- to that place that says such a gentle and loving movie as this cannot find its audience because of the determination of the American film culture to retain the old, "traditional" Euro-American bias. It's just too depressing.And where is William Russ these days? His "Dew-ey" is one of my favorite film characters of all time
