Customer Reviews of The Best of Victor Borge Act One and Two
Borge DVD scores with critic Not only were Ron Pataky and Victor Borge long-time friends, Ron, as a critic, had reviewed Borge's performance numerous times over a 25-year period. Both of the men were steeped in the best of wholesome humor available on the national and international scene. He was, says the critic, the absolute king of his genre! <

>Along this line, Ron's new books, including "HELP! I'M BEING HELD A PRISONER IN A RANSOM NOTE FACTORY!" are now available by ordering online from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, etc. Another book is about to be released as well (11-06). Much like the first in the series, its title is: SECOND NOTICE! (If you ignored the desperate plea, "Help! I'm Being Held A Prisoner," etc., what better and more logical follow-up than "Second Notice"?). <

Great routines, but truncated recording disappointing
Victor Borge is as funny as ever in this 90-minute live performance. He is thoroughly engaged, very lively, and manages to deliver even his most common routines with such energy and humor that you feel as if you're seeing them for the first time.

>That said, the recording has some flaws. The first you will notice is that the video quality, though not distracting, is nevertheless poor. It's painfully obvious that this DVD was mde from a VHS cassette. The one that most disappointed me most, though, is that "The Best of Victor Borge Acts I and II" is just that--the best of them, not the whole thing. Seven years ago, I purchased a videocassette of this same concert. Since the tape has gotten worn to the point of being unusable, I purchased this DVD expecting to have all of Acts I and II. Sadly, several routines are fully removed, including Borge's birthday sketches and his performance of the Moonlight Sonata. His performance of "Clear the Saloon" and several other pieces have also been cut from the recording. For this reason, although I don't outright regret the purchase, I'm profoundly disappointed with it.
Humor At It's Very Best
Always wanted to see Victor Borge perform in person but never had the chance. His timing and ability to communicate with the audience is remarkable. The real musical talent of Mr. Borge on the piano is woven into his performance for all to enjoy. He simply was one of the very best entertainers of his time.
