A landmark in film history, EASY RIDER blew the studio doors open for more young directors than any film before or since, helping to create the wide-open climate that would lead to the production of many outstanding films in the 1970s. As its director, Dennis Hopper is usually given the lion's share of credit for the film's success, but the revelations of time suggest that the contributions of the late Terry Southern and, to some degree, Jack Nicholson have endowed the film with much of its residual power.
Starring Peter Fonda as Wyatt (alias Captain America) and Hopper as Billy, it traces the hippie duo's adventures as they mount their seriously chopped hogs on a journey to find the real America en route to Mardi Gras. In Arizona, they visit a commune whose members are having a tough time, and in a small Texas town they're jailed for joining a parade. But they're quickly sprung by an ACLU lawyer, the quirky, hard-drinking George Hanson (Jack Nicholson), who accepts their offer to join them on the trip to New Orleans, eager to visit the best whorehouse in the South. EASY RIDER accurately reflects the tensions and hostilities of the period, Laszlo Kovacs's photography is superb, Nicholson is exceptional in his breakthrough role--and the startling, ...

Avengers DVD
$13.55
CHOKE's protagonist, Victor Mancini, shouldn't be a likable character. He's an unrepentant sex addict who has sex with the woman he's supposed to be sponsoring. He purposely chokes in restaurants so that rich patrons will save him and send him money. And he sometimes wishes that his mother, who suffers from dementia, would just get it over with and die. But because Victor is played--and played quite well--by Sam Rockwell (THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY), it's hard not to have a little sympathy for him. He spends his days working at a colonial tourist attraction with his best friend, Denny (Brad William Henke), incurring the wrath of his authenticity-craving boss (Clark Gregg, who also directed and wrote the film). His evenings are spent visiting his mother (Oscar winner Anjelica Huston) in a private hospital, but she mistakes her son for men in her past and wonders when Victor will visit. But young, pretty Dr. Paige Marshall (NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN's Kelly Macdonald) has a radical idea about treatment that may bring his mother's mind back, and Victor's devotion to his mother--and a desire to sleep with Dr. Marshall--makes him eager to try.
CHOKE rivals some soft-core porn with its abundance of sex, nudity, and adult toys, but there's more here than just the shocking and the steamy. This dark comedy is based on a novel by Chuck Palahniuk, most famous for writing the book FIGHT CLUB. Like the adaptation of that novel, CHOKE is a surefire cult favorite that meditates on the themes of culture, religion, fathers, sexuality, and identity. It's a mean, misanthropic film at times, but similar to its protagonist, it's hard not to like. Gregg has made an assured directorial debut, and his script retains the blackly humorous tone of the novel.
In this limited-release film, a sex addict (Sam Rockwell) pays for ...

| | Gunnin' For That #1 Spot DVDs (2008) Widescreen; Enhanced CD
Avengers movie DVD
$19.99
Boasting a hip-hop aesthetic and a devotion to music ranging from the 1970s to the new millennium, GUNNIN' FOR THAT #1 SPOT reveals its director's roots as a member of the Beastie Boys. Adam Yauch (AWESOME! I... SHOT THAT), the creative force behind many of the rap trio's videos, turns his attention to a basketball game in his native New York. The historic event was 2006's "Elite 24" match-up, an all-star game that drew the country's top high school talent to its most famous outdoor court, Harlem's Rucker Park. Ranging in age from 15 to 18, these players come from all over the country to demonstrate their skill. GUNNIN' FOR THAT #1 SPOT spends the first two-thirds of its running time as an energetic warm-up, introducing the gifted and hardworking players and their backgrounds. The film concludes with the actual game, which is full of enough dunks and jaw-dropping moves to impress even the most seasoned basketball fan.
While most sports films focus on underdogs, GUNNIN' FOR THAT # 1 SPOT centers on eight players who are almost assured of places in history. In fact, several of the players were picked in the 2008 NBA draft, and it's not hard to see why after watching this documentary. During several especially impressive plays, Yauch slows the camera down so the audience can see every movement. His work with music videos shows in this film's style, and GUNNIN' FOR THAT #1 SPOT has a stellar soundtrack that is exactly as good as one expects from Yauch. Funk from the 1970s, old-school rap from the '90s, and even the genre-bending sounds of M.I.A. are perfect background music for the physical feats that Yauch was able to capture.
At 155th and Frederick Douglas Boulevard in Harlem lies Rucker Park. The concrete pavement, anchored on one side by its run down slab bleachers, is no different than any other basketball court in the city, but this is the place where nicknames are indelibly branded, and legends are born. On September 1, 2006, the top 24 high school basketball players in the nation stepped out on this court, that once saw the likes of Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Dr. J to compete in the first annual Elite 24 all-star game. This film follows 8 of these players as they prepare to showcase their skills ...
