English Subtitles With FLAMENCO in 1995 and TANGO in 1998, director Carlos Saura painted pictures of two essential world-music styles. Now with FADOS, the filmmaker finishes his trilogy. This musical chronicles the Portuguese genre from its beginnings in the music of Africa and Brazil to its contemporary artists. FADOS features the talents of Mariza and Camané, and also boasts appearances from the rapping faudistas, including NBC, SP, and Wilson. Fados Reviews: "Much as he did in his 1990s documentaries SEVILLANAS and FLAMENCO, this veteran Spanish director has, in his latest, created both a tribute to an art form and a performance archive."-- Manohla Dargis, New York Times 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Spanish director Carlos Saura's celluloid songbook will speak to ethnomusicologists and cineastes alike."-- John P. McCarthy, Box Office "[Saura, who] specializes in elegantly composed performance films, celebrates the bluesy, soul-baring Portugese musical genre known as fado." -- Grade: B+-- Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly "[T]here's certainly unfettered passion flowing through each one of the nearly 20 musical numbers in FADOS..."Washington Post "Saura uses mirrors, scrims, silhouettes, layered images, back projection, overhead shots -- all highly theatrical devices -- yet places them always at the service of the music, singing and dancing; never is his film less than cinematic."-- Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times Fados | List Price | $29.95 (You save $9.96) | | Studio | Zeitgeist Films Ltd. | | Orig Year | 2007 | | DVD Encoding | Region 1 | | All Time Sales Rank |  60277  | | CD Universe Part number | 7871682 | | Catalog number | 1120 | | Discs | 1 | | Release Date | Oct 20, 2009 | | Rating | Not Rated | | Running Time | 92 Minutes | | Additional Info | Widescreen | | Movie Details | Color; Widescreen |

The love saga winds to a close as Belinda (Sarah Jones) takes on a new responsibility while accepting guidance from the place she least expected it. Female doctors are a rarity in the Old West, but Belinda has carved out an impressive niche for herself in a small, tight-knit Missouri community. Her best friend, Annie (Haylie Diff), is about to give birth, and Belinda has agreed to monitor her as she carries the baby to term. But for a woman who has always put science first, Annie's folksy mother-in-law, Mary (Patty Duke), isn't always the easiest person to deal with. Experienced nursemaid Mary would rather rely on homeopathic treatments that taking the advice of doctors, and before long the two women are hopelessly at odds over how to handle the pregnancy. Back at home, things aren't any easier--Belinda is having trouble getting pregnant, and it's beginning to have a negative affect on her relationship with her husband (Jordan Bridges). Perhaps if ...

Director Alan Parker's intense and fully realized film interpretation of the English band's classic album THE WALL melds whimsical fantasy with dark Shakespearean drama. The film makes innovative use of sets, costumes, and special effects to create a unique surrealistic strangeness worthy of Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dali's UN CHIEN ANDALOU. Both disturbing and bedazzling, PINK FLOYD: THE WALL is a must-see film for any music lover.
In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the release of Alan Parker's masterpiece film version of Pink Floyd's groundbreaking prog rock album "The Wall", Columbia has released this special limited-edition DVD of the film. Packaged in a deluxe DVD digi-pak designed to look like "The Wall" with debossed brick work and a clear O-card, the release features a photo montage of film shots and a fold-out reproduction of the original film promo poster.

Set in 1962; Produced and released in 1973.
AMERICAN GRAFFITI presents a powerful collage of youth on the brink of maturity just before the assassination of J.F.K.. Based on George Lucas's own teenage hot-rodding days in Modesto, California, this brilliant, bittersweet comedy inspired numerous other productions, including the long-running TV series HAPPY DAYS. Lucas's second feature film (following THX 1138), AMERICAN GRAFFITI contains an early screen appearance by Harrison Ford, who would figure heavily in the director's next movie, the sci-fi epic STAR WARS. The film follows one night in the lives of several recently graduated high school students. The genial Steve (Ron Howard) prepares to leave for college the next day, and Laurie (Cindy Williams), his girlfriend, is upset by his impending departure. Laurie's brother, Curt (Richard Dreyfuss), the class intellectual, is also slated for college, but he has serious doubts about his future. Also included here are the hopeless nerd (Charles Martin Smith) and the eternally cool drag racer, John (Paul LeMat), who feels pressure to live up to his reputation. A nostalgic feeling is evoked in seeing the teenagers cruising in their hot rods, eating at Mel's Diner, and listening to Wolfman Jack spin the latest hits, with the camera ...

In this German comedy, a depressed Adolf Hitler gets help from an unlikely source: a Jew. The year 1944 and the war are both nearing a close, and an indefatigable Goebbels wants the unmotivated Hitler to give a rallying speech to the Germans on New Year’s Day. To encourage Hitler, Goebbels rescues the leader’s old acting teacher, Adolph Grünbaum, from a concentration camp, along with his family, with only five days before the speech is scheduled.
The Third Reich is ready to fall, but don't mention that to ...
