5 out of 5 stars Should Be CHRISTMAS TRADITION!   May 12, 2008

I watched this enchanting video about 15 yrs ago on PBS and was enthralled. I think watching it would be a great tradition (like reading "The Night Before Christmas"). Tasha Tudor reflects a joy of life that is so uplifting. I have been trying to find this for my own artistic grandchildren to inspire them.

The first video tape I received from Amazon was defective and would not work in my VCR. Amazon has exceptional customer service and immediately followed through with sending me a new copy, simultaneously when I sent the defective one back. I am completely satisfied with the quality of the replacement video. If you like Tasha Tudor this is a 48 minute look into her life when she was around 80 years old. Very quaint and biographical and a very nicely done video. Would recommend AMAZON and this video.


5 out of 5 stars Old Fashioned Peace and tranquility   May 7, 2007
Karen Hartnagle
I really liked this video. Tasha is amazing in her strength and the way she lives. It is very comforting to watch how she takes care of herself and her love of animals. In all that she does in daily life she always finds time for her art. This video is a rare treat in this world of today.


5 out of 5 stars a wonderful trip from home   August 6, 2002

Tasha Tudor claims that her "whole life has been a vacation". Watching this video is like taking a trip with her to a different place and time and coming back with a renewed spirit. While I also enjoy "Take Peace" - especially during the Christmas holiday season - "Take Joy" is a wonder for it's aesthetic qualities and insight into the private life of a noted illlustrator as well as a valuable reference tool for the gardener. It mirrors the same tone set in the three "coffee table" books about Tasha Tudor done by Tovah Martin, Richard W. Brown, and Tasha Tudor. This short video is artistically crafted, giving the viewer a glimpse into her private life: her kitchen, her gardens, her dollhouse and marionettes, her books and illustrations, her family history through photographs and some vintage film clips, her sense of humor, her steadfastness and her self-sufficiency.

While I have enjoyed my own copy, I have also given this video as gifts to appreciative friends. Take Joy is, indeed, a joy.


5 out of 5 stars Tasha - True Artist, True Child   September 24, 2000

If you need to be refreshed, this is the video for you. Tasha Tudor is child inside artist and she succeeds in introducing a charming world to the viewer. Her garden, her art, her life philosophy is fresh and reminds us all what life is made of. It really refreshs the spirit. Oh that we all were as young and new as Ms.Tudor. If you want to give a really great gift, give this video. It is true gold.
