Steven Soderbergh followed up his critical and commercial smash ERIN BROCKOVICH with this wildly exhilarating exploration of the complex, multilayered international drug problem. The film tells three seemingly disparate stories that loosely intersect and overlap, unfurling at a frantic, relentless pace. In the first, a well-intentioned Mexican police officer, Javier Rodriguez Rodriguez (Benicio Del Toro), comes face-to-face with the hypocrisy and hopelessness of his situation after he learns that his superior, General Salazar (Tomas Milian), isn`t the law-abiding officer he claims to be. In the second, Robert Wakefield (Michael Douglas), a conservative Supreme Court judge from Ohio, takes a position as the president`s new drug czar. What he doesn`t realize is that his teenage daughter, Caroline (Erika Christensen), is falling prey to the dangerous narcotics that he has been hired to eradicate. In the third section, federal agents Montel Gordon (Don Cheadle) and Ray Castro (Luis Guzman) are baby-sitting Eduardo Ruiz (Miguel Ferrer), a drug smuggler who is about to testify against the wealthy Carlos Ayala (Steven Bauer). When Ayala`s pregnant wife, Helena (Catherine Zeta-Jones), learns of her husband`s illegal activities, she takes her family`s future into her own hands. Soderbergh`s bold decision to photograph the film using three strikingly different visual schemes adds even greater punch to TRAFFIC, which stands firmly as one of 2000`s most stirring motion picture events.

Adapted from his own play, Tony Piccirillo's video feature tells the story of Tom (Scott Speedman), a married man who allows himself to be picked up by gay filmmaker Dan (James Marsden). Tom acts shy, claiming that he has only slept with a man one other time, years ago. But soon, he makes it known that Tom was that one man. Unfortunately, 24 days ago, Tom discovered that he has AIDS--which he believes was contracted through his encounter with Tom. Dan swears that he has repeatedly tested negative, but Tom, eager to blame someone, will not relent. This leads to a brutal game of cat-and-mouse that plays out in Tom's small apartment.DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.78Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo 2.1 - EnglishText/Photo Galleries: Filmographies

Carly Norris (Sharon Stone), a demure divorcie and book editor, moves in to New York City s tall, elegant Sliver building. Unbeknownst to Carly, though, fatal mysteries enshroud her new accommodations. Soon the center of attention, Carly is befriended by Gus Hale (Keene Curtis), left gifts by a secret admirer, and pursued by two handsome men--Zeke Hawkins (William Baldwin) and Jack Lansford (Tom Berenger). However, someone is using a very sophisticated surveillance system to watch the intimate lives of these tenants--including Carly. SLIVER is based on a novel by Ira Levin (ROSEMARY S BABY), although the script shares striking similarities with writer Joe Eszterhas`s earlier BASIC INSTINCT screenplay. Phillip Noyce directs efficiently, and Polly Walker is striking as a Londoner out of her element in the coke-addled world of upscale Manhattan.
