The Wreck of the Mary Deare - Authentic Region 1 DVD from Warner Brothers sta...
By:
List Price:
Amazon Price: $4.61

CUSTOMER REVIEW:
Excellent adventure
Extras: Scene Index (not full motion)

Nice sea noir film with strong performances by Cooper and Heston. Captain Patch on the stand during the inquiry hearing is somewhat reminiscent of Captain Queeg in the Caine Mutiny... we don't know what to think about his motives or testimony. Is he insane, a liar, misunderstood? The difference, of course, is that we are still unsure about Queeg at the end of Caine, but we know who Patch is by the end of Deare.

It's an action movie... not necessarily high art, but entertaining and well done.

Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake (Matthew Bourne)
By:
List Price: $29.98
Amazon Price: $20.95

Description
Matthew Bourne, director and choreographer of Adventures in Motion Pictures--a maverick new modern dance company based in London--brings a new twist to an old classic with this production of "Swan Lake." Taking advantage of the public's preoccupation with the ups and downs of the royal family, Bourne has set his story in the modern era and has cast all the swans--including the Odette/Odile role--as males. Boutne's creation brings great ballet to an audience it has never before reached, and for cognoscenti offers a new view of the breadth of possibilty in Tchaikovsky's well-loved score. "Swan Lake" enjoyed a sold-out run in London and a subsequent critically acclaimed and public-adored Broadway stint.
 
Hard Eight (Special Edition)
By:
List Price: $14.94
Amazon Price: $8.49

Amazon.com
Before hitting the big time with his second film Boogie Nights, young filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson impressed critics with this deftly conceived, low-budget film noir chamber piece. With its minimalist plot, deliberate pacing, and brief, but shocking bursts of violence, Hard Eight won't please everyone, but Anderson and his first-rate cast were clearly working on the same authentic wavelength. It's a mystery at first why a solemn professional gambler (Philip Baker Hall in a captivating performance) cares for a down-and-out loser (John C. Reilly) and a dimwit, Reno cocktail waitress (Gwyneth Paltrow). But his motivations become clear--and the movie packs a quietly effective punch--when the gambler faces blackmail by a small-time crook (Samuel L. Jackson). This unheralded film seemed like a closely kept secret itself, until it showed up on the 1997 top-10 lists of several prominent critics. In tandem with Boogie Nights, it marked the arrival of a new filmmaker whose talent is as impressive as that of that other '90s hotshot, Quentin Tarantino. --Jeff Shannon

This is Anderson Cooper from AC360 When I hear the word "firecracker" I think of a cheer we did in elementary school. Firecracker, firecracker boom, boom, boom!

(h/t Nicole Belle at Crooks & Liars) Ed was on Anderson Cooper 360 and rightfully took offense at Cliff May's assertion that some on the Left want us to lose in Iraq.

Posted by Brad Jacobson On the heels of news that millions of American flags are actually imported from China, Republican presidential nominee John McCain addressed the issue this Fourth of July morning outside a flag factory in Fredericksburg, Virginia. "All options must be on the table to deal with China's infiltration of our flag market," McCain said to a cheering and U.S.-made flag-waving crowd. "If we find that China manufactured and sold us these millions of American flags intentionall
