Set in a small town in upstate New York, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME looks at a brother and sister who grew up together as orphans but now face life with very different perspectives. Sammy (Laura Linney) works at the local bank. Most of her attention goes into raising her 8-year-old son, Rudy (Rory Culkin), and drifting in a tepid romance with Bob (Jon Tenney). The first disruption to her dutiful routine arrives in the form of new bank manager Brian (Matthew Broderick), intent on whipping his employees into shape. Then Sammy's wayward brother, Terry (Mark Ruffalo) shows up after a long absence, and her happiness quickly turns sour when she realizes he has only come to ask for money--again. But with all the elements for a backwater soap opera in place, the story instead becomes a subtle portrait of good intentions and fractured relationships.

| | Sandy Posey Born To Be Hurt: The Anthology 1966-1982 CD (2004) (Import) Australia
Forever review
 $20.09
Features four smash 60s Billboard pp hits, "Born A Woman", "Single Girl", "What A Woman In Love Won't Do" and "I Take It Back". Includes all her hits as well as such rare pop and country charting singles as "Bring Him Safely Home To Me", "Born To Be With You", "Love, Love, Love/Chapel Of Love", "Love Is Sometimes Easy" and "Can't Get Used To Sleeping Without You".
At 29 tracks on a single CD, Raven's 2004 release Born to Be Hurt: The Anthology 1966-1982 is by far the biggest Sandy Posey collection yet released, and it's also the most comprehensive, being the first collection to cover all of her major labels. Prior to this, the two main Posey CDs, Collectables' 1996 release The Best of Sandy Posey and RPM's 2002 disc A Single Girl: The Very Best of the MGM Recordings, covered only her MGM recordings, which admittedly were her most popular work, containing the hit singles "Born a Woman," "Single Girl," "I Take It Back," and "What a Woman in Love Won't Do." However, her story did not end there. After leaving MGM in 1968, she turned toward country, signed with Columbia, and went through several labels during the '70s -- Monument, Warner, and, finally, Audiograph in the early '80s -- before leaving the music business, and Born to Be Hurt is the first time any of this material has been released on CD. Over half of the CD is still devoted to the MGM recordings, but only ten of those tracks overlap with RPM's collection (and only six overlap with the Collectables release, including "Silly Girl, Silly Boy," which doesn't appear on A Single ...
| | Fly CD (2004)
Forever DVD
$13.79  
If your ears are starved for innovative jazz that blends punchy sax lines and dense, wild, worldbeat-flavored bass and drum rhythms, let this newly formed trio with an amazing pedigree fill the bill. Mark Turner was a sax star in the late '90s who was looking for a new situation, which he stumbled upon while working on a Chick Corea project called Originations, which included old friends Larry Grenadier (bassist for Pat Metheny and Joshua Redman) and drummer Jeff Ballard (Corea, Redman, Danilo Perez). If the swinging bass and percussion patterns weren't so tight and Turner's sax wasn't this melodic and precise, Fly might seem like it was three pals just having fun, as the exotic opening track, "Child's Play," might indicate. Essentially, the concept seems to be the trio listening and responding to each other in a frolicsome manner. On "Fly Mr. Freakjar," Turner is more eloquent and restrained as his cohorts rumble happily around him, as if trying to get him to loosen up (he does after a few minutes). ...
| | Carli Munoz Maverick CD (2005) (Import)
Forever movie DVD
$16.25
The defiant album title and the sternly antiwar liner notes might lead you to expect a program of dull and earnest musical sermonizing, or of vapid free-form noodling. That is, if you don't know pianist and composer Carli Munoz, whose work seems always to be so suffused with joy. Not the fierce, manic joy of a Bud Powell or the serene joy of Bill Evans on a good night, but just plain joy -- with every note he plays you get the impression that he's thrilled to be playing and feels blessed to be where he is. On Maverick he's supported by bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Jack DeJohnette, a rhythm section that any pianist would give his eyeteeth for, and there are guest appearances by saxophonist David Sanchez and clarinetist Don Byron as well. The program is a nice combination of standards and Munoz originals, among which the most exciting is the title track, a long piece with a written structure that recalls "On Green Dolphin Street." But his "Yellow Moon Tune," which closes the album on a sweetly quiet note, is drop-dead gorgeous as well, and features an unusually attractive part for arco bass. Other highlights include beautiful renditions of "You Don't Know What Love Is" and Keith Jarrett's lovely "Margot." Don Byron's solo on "Three Little Steps to Heaven" isn't spectacular, but it's not bad either, and the fact that it's about as close as this album gets to anything ...
| | Nik Bartsch's Ronin Stoa CD (2006)
Forever video
$13.79
He may call it "Zen Funk," but the real question is, what the hell is this? Swiss pianist and composer Nik Bartsch's Ronin have issued their ECM debut, Stoa, the label well-known for its icy sounding, spacious jazz. ECM has been pushing the envelope for nearly 40 years, but with Ronin, they've pushed it beyond the pale into God knows what. This is not a bad thing, however. Ronin was a group created with the idea of playing live. And over the course of three previous records issued only in Europe, the band -- birthed in 2001 when Bartsch was 30 -- plays a highly disciplined style of music that relies on interlocking rhythm, groove, and groups of tight, short melodic statements all stacked on top of one another. There are those who will immediately think of Steve Reich's minimalist discipline, but there are no equations to be solved here. It's math music to be sure, but its also got the good foot, the deep bass, and the drum ostinatos of James Brown & His Famous Flames or the JB's, or even the deep soul tight backbeat toughness of the best Stax rhythm sections. Bartsch has listened to everything from Reich and Terry Riley to techno and the Necks (there is a beautiful nod to them at the beginning of the opener "Modul 36"). Bartsch's melodic ideas are trance-like and hypnotic. They come across more as rhythmic statements than actual melodic ideas. There are Eastern aesthetics at work here in the ...

In sci-fi thriller BABYLON A.D., Vin Diesel's Toorop is an antihero who quotes the best of cinema's bad boys from films such as THE GODFATHER and SCARFACE. But all the tattooed muscleman really wants to do is leave poverty- and violence-ridden Russia and return to his family's home in upstate New York. However, he has been banned from his native America, so when a Russian mobster (a prosthetic-enhanced Gérard Depardieu) offers him a job and a forged passport that will take him back home, he agrees, even though the mission seems close to suicide. He takes a strangely gifted orphan named Aurora (Melanie Thierry) from a Mongolian convent to Harlem, his only help being a nun--though it is a nun played by action star Michelle Yeoh. Thugs attack them on every leg of their journey, following them as they take car, train, sub, and snowmobile to ensure Aurora's safety.
BABYLON A.D works best when it's revealing facets of its futuristic world, from the refugee-camp look of Russia to the high-tech gloss of a 22-million-people-strong New York City. Production designers Sonja Klaus and Paul Cross, as well as director Mathieu Kassovitz (GOTHIKA), deserve praise for creating settings that evoke memories of dystopian films from BLADE RUNNER to CHILDREN OF MEN. Kassovitz, who is most ...
