It's really appreciated. Diana is fabulous in <b>Mahogany</b> and I'm really looking forward to seeing the film presented in widescreen. I've only seen it on TV so I'm sure the DVD will be a huge improvement. I had no idea that Diana was considered for the role of Solitaire in <b>Live and Let Die</b>, but she would have been fantastic in that! I do like Jane Seymore a lot though, but I'm not sure if Bond was a good fit for her. Thanks again! Thanks so much for the nice comment Jeremy! It’s really appreciated.

I can't wait to see this film again in all of its over the top glory. I absolutely love Diana Ross in this film (and in the seventies, her recordings were just incredible). It's funny I just watched re-watched "Live and Let Die" and it is mentioned several times in the documentaries and commentaries that they originally wanted Ross for the part of Solitaire (eventually played by Jane Seymore). I kept thinking how incredible that would have been. Great review, this blows "Dreamgirls" off this planet. Kimberly,

I'm sure you're right about the reasons that Paramount delayed their <b>Mahogany</b> DVD release. I really enjoy your own blog as well as the joint one (Popcorn &amp; Sticky Floors) you contribute to. Thanks for the comment Jesse!

I was disappointed at the time because I couldn't wait to score a copy. This blog is my kind of blog.
