Buy Brides of Christ (DVD)

This striking mini-series exposes a tentative time in the Catholic Church -- the reformation and relaxation of many church practices that occurred in the 1960s. Set in an Australian convent and religious school, BRIDES OF CHRIST follows several nuns and schoolgirls as they wrestle with their beliefs about religion and the Catholic Church -- ranging from changes in the nuns' dress code to divorce and abortion. This series delicately handles the issues raised by the transformation in the Church, and balances the views of reformers with those who believe in tradition. The program features outstanding talent, including Naomi Watts and Russell Crowe in early roles.

DAS BOOT: In the midst of World War II, as the tide turns against the Axis, a German U-boat crew is sent out to patrol the Atlantic and attack Allied ships bringing supplies to England. The submarine also carries a press correspondent, there to report from the front lines of naval warfare. Meanwhile, the crew`s captain (J rgen Prochnow) is becoming disillusioned with the Nazi regime and with war in general. What starts out as a routine mission is soon enlivened beyond the crew`s expectations when their boat`s surprise attack on a convoy is thwarted by a fast-moving destroyer. Battered by depth charges, the crew must pull together to survive the attacks of their unseen enemy.ANZIO: This film from director Edward Dmytryk (THE CAINE MUTINY) follows the Allied landing in Italy at the beaches of Anzio--one of the bloodiest battles of the war, thanks to an overly cautious general (Arthur Kennedy) whose delays gave the Germans time to erect the Caesar Line of defense around Rome. Robert Mitchum stars as Dick Ennis, an unarmed seen-it-all war correspondent who finds himself in the thick of the fray. Peter Falk is scrappy Corporal Rabinoff, a former shoe salesman who s grown addicted to the thrill of combat. Together they get stuck behind enemy lines and must fight their way back to warn the troops. THE CAINE MUTINY: In director Edward Dmytryk`s classic seafaring drama, privileged mama`s boy Ensign Keith (Robert Francis) gets assigned to the Caine, a rusty old minesweeper with a haggard, undisciplined crew, during the latter days of WWII. Soon the paranoid, strawberry-loving Captain Queeg (Humphrey Bogart) takes charge and tries to clean up the ship, arousing the hatred and suspicion of the other officers, especially a flippant lieutenant (Fred MacMurray). Eventually, the men stage a mutiny, and a dramatic trial follows, featuring a sharply intelligent military lawyer (Josi Ferrer). DEADMEN`S SECRETS: THE SECRETS OF SEAWOLVES: This documentary uses ar

Jimmy (Marc Warren) and his buddies meet up with Georgio (THE SOPRANOS' Al Sapienza), an heavy hitter in Al Capone's Windy City gang. He lures the trio in with promises to make a contender out of Jimmy, a hopeful prizefighter.

New Rose Hotel (DVD) New Rose Hotel (DVD) » New Rose Hotel (DVD)

Based on a short story by cyberpunk writer William Gibson (NEUROMANCER), this sleek film stars Willem Dafoe and Christopher Walken as freelance espionage agents looking for a way to make some money in a future ruled by warring corporations. They hit on a scheme to hire gorgeous Italian prostitute Sandii (Asia Argento) to seduce a brilliant chemical engineer (Yoshitaka Amano) into leaving his family and employers for a rival company. All goes well at first, but then it seems that X (Dafoe) and Sandii have fallen in love during her training, which may have somehow caused the whole deal to go haywire. Under the uncompromising eye of director Abel Ferrara, this weird new world seems beautiful, dangerous, and very sexy. Those looking for a conventional narrative may be stumped as portable video units and handheld camera-phones advance most of the plot, but for adventurous viewers willing to actively engage it, this unique mix of breathy eroticism and technological paranoia is highly seductive. Rap artist Schoolly D composed the moody electronic score. John Lurie, Victor Argo, and Ryuichi Sakamoto appear in cameos.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.85Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 2.0 - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.

Black Widow (DVD) Black Widow (DVD) » Black Widow (DVD)

The black widow spider mates to kill--and so does the femme fatale of this noir thriller. Catharine (Theresa Russell) makes quite a glamorous living by marrying well and then carefully murdering her devoted husbands after ensuring that her name's on the will. No one suspects that the beautiful and affluent widow is actually a killer, as she hides her tracks well, using undetectable poisons. But her luck turns when federal agent Alexandra Barnes (Debra Winger) takes a closer look into the case and suspects she's found a serial killer. Soon Barnes books a flight to Hawaii, where Catharine's doing her mourning in the sun, and discovers that the widow has already gotten her claws into a highly successful hotel tycoon. However, Barnes quickly becomes obsessed with both her alluring subject and with the sophisticated businessman--a situation Catharine is sure to exploit. Like THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE, director Bob Rafelson's BLACK WIDOW refers to an earlier noir film of the same name (directed by Nunnally Johnson in 1954), though similarities stop at the ruthless title character.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseDual SideAudio: Dolby Surround - English Mono - Spanish Stereo - FrenchSide One:WidescreenAdditional Release Material: Trailer Fox Flix: DON'T SAY A WORD, HIGH CRIMES, JOY RIDESide Two:Full Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Trailer 2 TV Spots Fox Flix: ONE HOUR PHOTO, SWIMFAN, UNFAITHFUL
