Buy Short - International Release #2 (DVD)

Volume 2 in the spectacular DVD series SHORT - INTERNATIONAL RELEASE continues brings us various short films featuring New Zealand, Irish, Chinese, Welsh, and Indian subjects. The program starts off with an hour-long documentary detailing director Jane Campion's efforts at making the feature period film, PORTRAIT OF A LADY. Following this is another documentary with entertainers as subjects, Irish Actors: Brosnan and Byrne. Through intimately honest interviews, movie stars Pierce Brosnan (a.k.a. James Bond) and Gabriel Byrne discuss the hardships of being Irish in Hollywood. Two more documentaries concerning very different artistic talents -- one on Chinese architect I.M. Pei and the other on bizarre Welsh band Gorky's Zygotic Mynci -- are also included. The three fictional short films that are on the compilation are also very divergent pieces of art. Kaal is a moving story of a poor Bombay shoemaker, Gabriel concerns a boy who believes that he's an angel, and finally, Kite is an innovatively stylish animated piece with combines 3-D and traditional animation.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.75Full Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - OnKaal andKite Additional Audio Track -Kite - Description of Animation ProcessText/Photo Galleries: Production Notes

25th Hour (DVD) 25th Hour (DVD) » 25th Hour (DVD)

Spike Lee's bracing adaptation of David Benioff's novel is a vibrant, vital motion picture. Edward Norton plays Monty Brogan, a harmless drug dealer who has 24 hours of freedom before serving a seven-year jail sentence. Nervous, confused, and terrified, Monty turns to his closest friends for support: Frank Slattery (Barry Pepper), a cocky stock broker who resents Monty for throwing his life away; Jakob Elinsky (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a hapless high school teacher who is attracted to one of his students (Anna Paquin); and Monty's heartbroken father (Brian Cox), who blames himself for Monty's demise. And then there is Naturelle (Rosario Dawson), Monty's beautiful girlfriend, who may or may not be guilty of ratting Monty out to the cops. Monty spends his last day trying to ignore the inevitability of time, but everyone and everything only reminds him of the bleak, unpromising days that lay ahead.With 25TH HOUR, Spike Lee revisits the fiery territory of 1989's DO THE RIGHT THING. Frustrated by Hollywood's cold shoulder toward the tragedy of September 11th, Lee attacks the subject with fervor, resulting in a film that brilliantly captures the mood and atmosphere in New York City in the months following the attack. The film features stellar contributions from composer Terence Blanchard, cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto, and Lee's ensemble cast.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 2.35Audio: THX Certified Audio Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 5.1 - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Deleted Scenes Audio Commentary - 1.

Lumumba (DVD) Lumumba (DVD) » Lumumba (DVD)

Haitian-born director Raoul Peck exorcises the demons of his adopted Congolese homeland in his erudite retelling of the tragically ended life of Patrice Lumumba, the Congo's first and last popularly elected prime minister. Spinning off from his 1992 documentary LUMUMBA: DEATH OF A PROPHET, Peck, with the benefit of recently uncovered information, unfurls the frenetic life of Lumumba, jumping backwards through his erratic and surprising rise to power from his brutal murder. Eriq Ebouaney portrays Lumumba's unique mix of antagonistic energy and chaotic charisma with breathtaking momentum; from his days as a beer salesman to his imprisonment for insurrection, to his attendance of the meetings instrumental in helping the Congo gain independence. The doomed leader's trajectory takes on Shakespearean proportions of betrayal and epic tragedy when his friend and companion Joseph Mobutu (played icily by Claire Denis regular Alex Descas) capitulates to the powerful forces of greed and international political maneuvering.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side - Single LayerFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Documentaries - 1.
