Fielding Pierce (Billy Crudup) is a promising young congressional candidate who becomes obsessed with the idea that his dead lover, Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), is still alive.

Extreme Japanese filmmaker Takashi Ishii (GONIN, FREEZE ME) directs the modern remake of 1974's HANA TO HEBI (itself based on the eponymous novel by erotica author Dan Oniroku).

From his current post in Antarctica, British glaciologist Matt (Kieran O'Brien), recalls how he met Lisa (Margo Stilley), a 21-year-old American student. They were at a rock concert at London's Brixton Academy, and he took her back to his apartment for sex. This began a brief relationship, which is revealed as Matt remembers and comments on its milestones--mainly the other concerts they attended and their significant sexual experiences--before their initial sexual attraction waned and they were forced to part.
The titular nine songs are comprised of concert performances by 1) Primal Scream, 2) Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, 3) Elbow, 4) Michael Nyman, 5) Super Furry Animals, 6) The Dandy Warhols, 7) Von Bondies, 8) Black Rebel Motorcycle Club again, and 9) Franz Ferdinand. Shot on often-blurry, handheld digital video from an audience perspective, these scenes have a you-are-there effect. The sequences involving Matt and Lisa are intimate and realistic (be warned--the sex in the film is real and graphic), conveying everything one needs to know about their relationship with only the most rudimentary dialogue. With this brief, dreamlike work, director Michael Winterbottom (24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE) has theoretically created the ultimate music movie--one that is purely sex, drugs, and rock & roll. The result is akin to the feeling of listening to a great mix tape made by a former lover.

Directed by the German master G.W. Pabst (PANDORA'S BOX), THE LOVE OF JEANNE NEY is one of Pabst's most satisfying and haunting films, and one that has only been available in a truncated form for most of the 20th century. Here, Kino on Video presents the film in its longest available version, complete with a full orchestral score. Set in post WWI Europe, the film stars Uno Hemming as Andreas, a young Bolshevik who murders his lover's uncle for an act of treason. He advises Jeanne, his lover, to flee to Paris and live with her uncle. However, the cunning Khalibiev has set into motion a plot to kill her uncle, marry her cousin, and wrest the family fortune from its rightful heirs. When Khalibiev does kill the uncle, he successfully frames Andreas for the crime causing Jeanne to ask his help in proving Andreas' innocence. Mixing the style of a Hollywood blockbuster with that of ...
