Starring Igor Fromchenko, Vladimir Zamansky
Director Andrei Tarkovsky
Screenwriter Andrei Konchalovsky, Andrei Tarkovsky
Available for the first time, this DVD features a brilliantly natural performance from the young Igor Fomchenko, in a film that is memorable and deeply affecting.

Andrei Tarkovsky became a major international figure in cinema when his breakthrough feature, MY NAME IS IVAN, was released in 1962. This short film was completed two years prior to the film that would begin Tarkovsky's major influence upon world cinema. This endearing short centers around the relationship between two distinctly different individuals, a young violinist and a gruff steamroller operator. Despite differences in age and representation of the male persona, the two forge a strong connection. This early Tarkovsky work showcases much of the experimental technique that would define his emotionally powerful later works and utilizes inventive uses of sound and split screen to tell this moving story. Co-scripted by Andrei Konchalovsky (SHY PEOPLE, TANGO & CASH).

Steamroller And The Violin review
CD $13.69  4.7 stars Audio Samples
During times of extreme political and social change, Stevie Wonder's voice and songwriting served as cultural and spiritual guideposts to many a listener, often lending insight and a barometer with which to measure the ways of the world. But that was largely during the golden phase of his career, generally regarded as being the late '60s through 1980's Hotter Than July. His work in the mid-'80s through the '90s was marginal in comparison, only hinting at glimpses of former brilliance, sugar-coated by over-polished production and radio-friendly content. So with a decade passing since his last full-length, 1995's Conversation Piece, people waited with bated breath for a sign of his return...and wondered which Wonder would show up: would it be the socially conscious genius who wrote anthems for a generation, or the R&B crooner who dominated quiet storm radio? Thankfully, it's a blend of both. For every forward-moving song with a theme, there's a gentle moment of tranquility to cancel it out. Many of these songs, save for their warm and polished digital production values, could ...

Canadian director David Cronenberg, whose impressive oeuvre includes such disparate works as THE DEAD ZONE, THE FLY, DEAD RINGERS, M. BUTTERFLY, and SPIDER, has made what might be the best film of his career with A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE. Loosely based on the graphic novel by John Wagner and Vince Locke, the movie stars Viggo Mortensen as Tom Stall, a quiet, easygoing family man who runs a diner in a small Indiana town. But when ...

Liner Note Author: Michael Heatley.
Recording information: The Greek Theater, Berkeley, CA (1986).
This strange concept for a retrospective--collecting the many times Van Morrison's music has been used in popular films--pairs obvious Morrison classics such as "Gloria" and "Wild Night" with lesser-known gems such as "Queen of the Slipstream" and "Irish Heartbeat." The question one has to wonder--given the availability of superior hits collections--is why?
Perhaps Martin Scorsese's use of "Comfortably Numb"--taken from a riveting performance with Roger Waters and the Band at the fall of the Berlin ...

DVD $14.39  5 stars
Hollywood studios are notorious for liberally borrowing ideas from each other, with the resulting clutch of similarly-themed films often bewildering the public as they try to decide which movie to go and see. In 2005 Bennett Miller directed CAPOTE, an Oscar-winning dramatization of Truman Capote's traumatic experiences writing the celebrated novel IN COLD BLOOD. In 2006 Douglas McGrath (COMPANY MAN) directed INFAMOUS, a movie that follows exactly the same premise. Although it's difficult to see why such a story would need to be immortalized in celluloid for a second time, McGrath does throw in a few tricks to help separate the two films. Talking head interviews with some of Capote's contemporaries, such as Gore Vidal and Babe Paley, are used, and the ...
