Chancer - Series 2 DVD Acorn Media announces the January 29, 2008 DVD debut of Chancer, Series 2, offering the final seven episodes of movie star Clive Owen's (Children of Men, Inside Man, Closer, Croupier) breakthrough role.
In the early 1990s television role that made him a huge star in Britain, Owen is positively magnetic as con man Derek Love, a.k.a. Stephen Crane, an irresistible rogue who makes up in moxie what he lacks in morals. Series 2 finds Derek released from prison and scheming to save not only the estate of his former romantic rival, but also the orphaned child of his late love. Packed with devilish plot twists and double crosses galore, Chancer's complete second series features returning faces from Series 1 as well as a new romantic interest played by Louise Lombard (The House of Eliott, CSI), a woman on the run from her own dodgy past.
In a plot packed with double crosses of the heart and the wallet, Chancer propels powerfully toward its surprising, devastating conclusion.
A ratings smash on British TV from 1990-91, Chancer has been compared to Dallas, Dynasty, and Twin Peaks. Grammy-winner Jan Hammer (Miami Vice) provides the terrific original music.

After PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and ATONEMENT, Keira Knightley continues her reign as the queen of the period film with this 18th-century costume drama. The corset-clad actress stars as Georgiana Spenser, the Duchess of Devonshire. With her marriage to the duke (Ralph Fiennes), Georgiana achieves an impressive level of fame as Britons follow both her clothing style and her political advice. But even celebrity and wealth can't act as a salve in her marriage to the boring, boorish duke. When he begins to flaunt his affairs, Georgiana is tempted to return to a teenage crush, Charles Grey (Dominic Cooper of THE HISTORY BOYS), to the anger of her husband and her mother (Charlotte Rampling, SWIMMING POOL).
Fiennes's portrayal of the duke ranks roughly with his Lord Voldemort on a scale of beastly behavior, but the acclaimed actor manages to give him a level of humanity that far surpasses what he deserves. THE DUCHESS focuses on the lack of power possessed by Georgiana and, in fact, all women of her time, and the duke is the primary agent of her suppression. As she has done with other period films from the PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN series to KING ARTHUR, Knightley brings spirit to the role, as well as a regal carriage that perfectly ...

Chancer - Series 2 film

The official soundtrack to the 2009 hit comic book movie is not your typical collection of hard-and-heavy rock anthems and hip-hop party songs. With the exception of My Chemical Romance's amped-up cover of Bob Dylan's "Desolation Row," it is a sobering blend of standards from days past. Complementing the somber mood and flashback sequences throughout the film, songs like Dylan's "The Times They Are A'Changin'" and Billie Holiday's "You're My Thrill" recall several eras' worth of simpler values and/or affairs. Nat King Cole's classic "Unforgettable" juxtaposes that song's soulful sentiment with a ...
