Product Description Palomino: Photographer Samantha Taylor finds inspiration in a California ranch and the arms of rugged ranch hand Tate Jordan, but will old demons stop their passion in its tracks? Starring: Lindsay Frost, Eva Marie Saint, and Peter Bergman Secrets: After the TV cameras stop rolling, the cast of a popular new soap opera discover that the intrigue in their own lives is just as sensational as what is on screen. Starring: Christopher Plummer, Josie Bissett, and Nicole Eggert Star: Years after their first fateful meeting, fame, fortune and circumstance threaten to destroy a second chance at love for a beautiful singer and a Vietnam veteran. Starring: Jennie Garth and Craig Bierko Bonus Movie - The Promise: Two college students find their love changed forever when a dangerous accident forces them to choose between their hearts and their futures. Starring: Kathleen Quinlan and Stephen Collins desertcart.com 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.

AH, SPENDING A COZY AFTERNOON WATCHING DANIELLE STEEL MOVIES!!!
This collection of movies from Danielle Steel is quite a treat, including the movie The Promise starring, Stephen Collins bka "Dan Broderick" from the famous A Woman Scorned, and a very young and stunning Kathleen Quinlan. PALOMINO: After seeing this one I wanted to inherit a ranch and fall in love with a handsome farm hand!!! Secrets: Reminds me of the days when prime-time soaps ruled! I truly enjoyed the fantastic ensemble cast, which includes a very handsome Christopher Plummer! That man has aged so well!!! Star: Eventhough this love-triangle roots for the main character played by Jennie Garth, I really liked and felt sorry for the second choice wife, played by the very beautiful Terry Farrell. I remember her from the tv movie and short-lived series Paper Dolls. The Promise: This is a bonus movie included that's well worth watching, about a young couple very much in love, but a horrible accident tempts their fate. This dvd set is a must for any Danielle Steel fan or if you just enjoy watching great tv movies minus the long commercials. I rarely watch Lifetime network anymore because their commericals are so long (5 minutes or more, I counted). I'd rather buy the movies on dvd! I just wish some other classic tv movies would get released on dvd in the US like Lace, starring Phoebe Cates, Deceptions, starring Stefanie Powers, and Mistral's Daughter!!!

great soap for a sunday afternoon
I have always been a closet Steel fan, and enjoyed the translation of her books and novellas (she wrote the movie novella The Promise. The stars in her Tv films have always been well cast and the film versions of her books hold up very well. Rather than review each film in this set, let me dote on The Promise. Kathleen Quinlan as Nancy/Marie was an incomparable beauty in this film, a simple tale of two lovers Nancy and Michael Hillyard (played by Stephen Collins)torn apart by a horrific car accident and a devious mother, well played by Beatrice Straight. Nancy undergoes extensive plastic surgery after being disfigured ( at the expense of Michael's mother-with the proviso that she gives up Michael). She does so, believing that Michael will seek her out, not knowing he has been told that Nancy "died". A tale of true love, though incredibly sappy, good scenery of San Francisco, fine performances and a good score serve the film and the story well. I once ran into Stephen Collins and talked with him about his career and he advised that he got more positive feedback about his role as the bereft and mourning Michael Hillyard than any other role. Interesting, hmmmmm? Anyway, the price point of this set for the four Steel films, with The Pomise included as a special attraction makes it one of the real bargains out there. Have your hankies ready! Now if the studio would only release the miniseries "The Ring"!

The Promise
I'll probably be asked for more reviews. I think you can evaluate them better if you could consider them in the persective of my tastes, character and personality. In view of this may I introduce myself to you, to Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de? I am a Maltese Maths teacher nearing retirement. I always made maximum effort not to suffer from a conservative mentality and I don't get along bad with people of any generation. My favourite challenge is trying to understand people's feelings, and empathise them. I do my best to discourage marriage separation and divorce with people in marriage crisis and strive towards reconciliation. It is perhaps the reason why I hold in limelight of my collection Erich Kastner's film "Das doppelte Lottchen" (The Parent Trap). I enjoy practically all types of films including hard pornos, nudity and hard sex, so long as they have good scenery and a convincing plot. I cherish in such films with a good, sentimentally musical background. However, I hate and really hate films that dwell on violence and bloodshed. The Promise. I rated this film very good because it brings out the spiritual power of love between two persons. The lady was disfigured after a terrible accident and had to submit to plastic surgery which completely changed her face. Although her former fiancee had no idea now who she was, he felt himself mysteriously attracted to her. This mystery puts one aware of a life reality which one rarely even thinks about but which one "treasures" once one is made conscious of it. Along with a somewhat rich scenery and musical background this film gives the positive message that love survives even through impossible situations. The acting was good and it is a film that one sees over and over again.

Worth it for Jennie Garth, Linda Purl, and Eva Marie Saint
Jennie Garth gives an emotional early performance as a rising singer and actress in Star. The beautiful Linda Purl from Happy Days does the same in Secrets, with co star Brenda Bakke from LA Confidential. Also enjoyed seeing Golden Age Beauty Eva Marie Saint from On The Waterfront in Palomino, with Rod Taylor from The Birds. These are quality transfers from Universal Studios with good color and clarity. All are in the older TV format with black bars on the sides of the picture. Enjoy!!!!

I have looked for 'The Promise' on DVD for so long as I am a big fan and I have most of Danielle Steele's other DVD's but could never find 'The promise', which is my favourite book by Danielle Steele, and got really excited when I saw this DVD and couldn't wait to receive it but, when I did, I found it would not play on my DVD player, I did not know that 'Region 1' was for American play only ...... I was gutted!!! My fault, I suppose, for not knowing that! Should there not be a note on the Adverts (when purchased by someone in the UK), for people like me who do not know these technical things?

I ordered this for just 1 of the movies! Star!! The others are great!!
