Notorious sexual provocateur James Toback (FINGERS, THE PICK-UP ARTIST) delivers another ferocious jolt to the senses with WHEN WILL I BE LOVED, a racy drama that features an eye-opening--and bodily revealing--performance from Neve Campbell. As in Toback`s BLACK AND WHITE, the film takes place on the harsh streets of New York City, where everybody is out to make a buck and morality appears to have been left behind somewhere in the 20th Century. Campbell is Vera, a spoiled Manhattanite who is dating Ford (Frederick Weller), a shady hustler. It becomes quite clear, however, that Vera is no monogamist, as she flirts with every cute guy that she passes, and also keeps a female lover on the side. When Ford is confronted by Italian billionaire Count Tommaso (Dominic Chianese) and offered $100,000 to spend time with Vera, the cunning vamp takes over and both men learn a very painful lesson about messing with a modern female.

Toback`s film is another abrasive work that addresses topics most people would rather sweep under the rug. The soundtrack jarringly shifts between hip-hop and classical music, and features cameos from Mike Tyson, Lori Singer, Damon Dash, and Michael Mailer. Shot by acclaimed Steadicam operator Larry McConkey, WHEN WILL I BE LOVED is certain to polarize audiences.

In John G. Avildsen's ROCKY V, times are different for boxing champion Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone). A lifetime of taking shots has terminated his career, and a crooked accountant has left him bankrupt. In this final chapter of the ROCKY series, the Balboa family is forced to return to their gritty beginnings in the old neighborhood, attempting to start their lives anew. Life in Philadelphia means a lot of adjustment for the once-wealthy Balboa family--Adrian (Talia Shire) has to return to her job at the pet store, Rocky Jr. (Sage Stallone) struggles to endure a punishingly tough high school, and Rocky is forced to face that his championship career is finally over. Soon, though, Rocky returns to what he knows best--boxing. He becomes a manager for Tommy Gunn (Tommy Morrison), an up-and-coming boxer, teaching him all of the tricks of the trade. Inspired by the memory of his own trainer, Mickey (Burgess Meredith), Rocky is able to find glory in training. However, Tommy leaves his tutelage for George W. Duke (Richard Gant), a flashy Don King-like promoter, and Rocky's rage and sense of betrayal inspire him to fight one final grudge match. Young Tommy and Rocky duke it out in a bloody streetfight that recalls the brutal glory and hard-knocks finale of the original ROCKY.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85
