Mansfield Park DVD
$14.99 BECOMING JANE is based on an incident in the life of the beloved writer Jane Austen, and follows the real-life romance that inspired her classic novels. Like many of her heroines, Jane (Anne Hathaway, THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA) is bright, strong-willed, and unwilling to marry merely for money, even though her family is struggling financially. Though many of her friends wish her to pair up with the nephew of a rich woman (Maggie Smith, HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX), Jane wants something more. When she meets the Irish rogue Tom Lefroy (James McAvoy, THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND), she initially can't stand him, but their romance blooms, serving as the inspiration for PRIDE AND PREJUDICE.
Director Julian Jarrold (KINKY BOOTS) is no stranger to literary fare. Though BECOMING JANE is only his second feature film, he directed several productions for British television, including GREAT EXPECTATIONS, CRIME AND PUNISHMENT, and WHITE TEETH. At times, BECOMING JANE feels exactly as it should: a long-lost Austen novel that's just been rediscovered. The themes and characters here seem familiar, as they've appeared in Austen's work many times. There's the devoted father, difficult mother, loving sister, and, of course, the charming young man with whom the protagonist initially clashes but later falls for. As Tom, McAvoy proves he deserves the attention he received for roles in THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND and STARTER FOR TEN. He's the perfect choice for a romantic lead in an Austen film, taking his place next to Matthew McFadyen in PRIDE AND PREJUDICE and Hugh Grant in SENSE AND SENSIBILITY. As Austen, Hathaway exudes intelligence and energy, playing exactly the sort of woman who appeared in the writer's work. For ...

Mansfield Park movie DVD
$10.29 Life imitates art in this adaptation of Karen Joy Fowler's bestselling novel about a book group reading the work of Jane Austen. Each of the people in the group is at a different stage of life: there's Sylvia (Amy Brenneman), whose husband has just left her for another woman, and her daughter Allegra (Maggie Grace), who's looking for a woman herself. Bernadette (Kathy Baker) has six marriages under her belt, while Jocelyn's (Maria Bello) most significant relationship is with her dog. New to the group of friends are Prudie (Emily Blunt), a teacher who is unhappy with her marriage, and Grigg (Hugh Dancy), the group's only man--a sci-fi fan invited by Jocelyn to take Sylvia's mind off her failed marriage. As they make their way through Austen's novels, they discover that the writer's work is just as relevant in the 21st century as it was in the 19th. The group has its own Emma, and a sparring would-be couple bears striking resemblance to Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy.
THE JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB succeeds largely thanks to the strength of its cast. Bello is better known for dramatic roles in films such as THE COOLER and THE HISTORY OF VIOLENCE, but she does an excellent job with this film's lighter tone. As know-it-all Prudie, Blunt steals just as many scenes as she did in THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA. Though it might seem like a clubhouse with a "No Boys Allowed" sign, the men in the movie hold their own with the female cast. Jimmy Smits, Marc Blucas, and Kevin Zegers play supporting roles, but it's Dancy who deserves the most praise. As Griggs struggles to woo one of the women in the group, Dancy easily ...

$32.59 A distinct departure from the saccharine fare of most sitcom families, the Bundys are a dysfunctional bunch of malcontents, who struggle to get along with each other and stay afloat in the world. Their patriarch, Al (Ed O'Neil), had his glory days back in high school as the star of the football team, and now makes his living as a shoe salesman. He spends his spare time watching way too much television, impervious to the amorous advances of his wife Peg (Katey Sagal), a former cheerleader and Al's high school sweetheart. Their daughter Kelly (Christina Applegate) is a blonde bimbo, and their son Bud (David Faustino) is a sexually frustrated misfit; Marcy D'Arcy (Amanda Bearce) is their meddlesome neighbor. In the third season, Elvis fans see the image of the King in a sweat stain on Al's shirt; Al and Peg dine and dash; Kelly must tap dance for an audience of nerds; and Peg endeavors to be Prom Queen at her high school reunion, no matter what it takes. Episodes include: "He Thought ...

$20.29 Playing the pub circuit under the name of Rockslide in the days leading up to punk rock, the Drones were among the first to take up the emerging genre and embrace it wholeheartedly. In 1976 they emerged at the forefront of the Manchester punk scene, as talented musicians who captured the energy and the raw power of the movement. With singles like "Temptations of a White Collar Worker," "Bone Idol," and "Just Wanna Be Myself," they developed a hard-driving, speed-laced sound that garnered them quite a following; this led to sharing the stage with the likes of The Stranglers and XTC. Disbanding in 1980, the group came together again in the mid-1990s to record a new album. Collected here are highlights from their 1996 UK tour, including shows at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool, and the Pavilion in Bath. ...
