Starring screen favorite Miranda Richardson (SLEEPY HOLLOW, THE CRYING GAME) Robert Louis Stevenson's ST. IVES is a witty, romantic comedy in the spirited style of EMMA and AN IDEAL HUSBAND. During the Napoleonic Wars, a handsome French officer, Captain Jacques St. Ives (Jean-Marc Barr -- DANCER IN THE DARK), is captured in battle and brought to a prisoner of war camp in Scotland. Once there, adventure and daring await when he meets and falls in love with a beautiful local woman (Anna Friel -- ROGUE TRADER), befriends the prison camp's British Major (Richard E. Grant -- SPICE WORLD), and discovers his long-lost grandfather living just down the road.

St. Ives video
 $13.15 
As one of the pioneers in Tex-Mex music, Doug Sahm fused rock & roll, R&B, conjunto, and country. This posthumous release, containing some of the last recordings made before his death, finds Sahm focusing on the country part of that equation. As this disc makes plain, country music was a major part of Sahm's life and music, and these tracks are pure, dyed-in-the-wool honky-tonk in the grand old style. Most are original tunes, and "Oh No! Not Another One" shows Sahm's feelings about country by humorously expressing his dismay at the way pop posers have taken over the country music scene. "Texas Me" is an old Sahm staple, but it's given new life in this context.
Of the two cover tunes, Bob Dylan's "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" gets a fresher coat of paint than most of the Dylan homages cluttering up tribute albums. Leon Payne's "They'll Never Take Her Love from Me" is a lovingly rendered piece of honky-tonk history followed by a spoken aside from Sahm, who takes pains to reiterate Payne's importance. What might be a cheesy moment in another context rings completely sincere when tucked into this honky-tonk love letter.
Doug Sahm's musical legend lives on as 'Wayne Douglas', one of his stage names as a solo country-western singer. He was also known as a founding member of both the Sir Douglas Quintet and The Texas Tornados. Upset with today's current country crap-o-rama, as he sings in 'Not Another One', Doug returns to his country roots to show us all that great musiccan transcend any genre. Sadly, he died shortly after this recording's completion.
Recorded at Cherry Ridge Studios, Floresville, Texas. Includes liner notes by James "Big Boy" Medlin.
Personnel: Doug Sahm (vocals, acoustic, electric & 12-string guitars); Tommy Detamore (acoustic & steel guitars); Clay Baker (acoustic guitar, background vocals); Bill Kirchen (electric guitar); Bobby Flores (fiddle, background vocals); Augie Meyer (piano, organ); Ronnie Huckaby (piano); David Carroll (upright bass); Dan

Catherine Morland is a young woman addicted to gothic romance novels. Her family sends her to live in the decadent society of Bath, where she meets with the unusual Tilney family in their estate, Northanger Abbey. Based on the 1818 novel by Jane Austen.
A tale of intrigue, adventure and romance, this enchanting dramatisation captures the spirit and wit of Austen's classic novel. The setting is eighteenth- century Bath, a society of decadence and deceit, into which Catherine Morland arrives bursting with freshness, integrity and a passion for macabre Gothic novels. In a time when materialism, not love, governs marriage, Catherine's head is full of fantasy and fiction, of maidens being abducted to sinister castles and heroes riding to the rescue on white horses. When romantic Henry Tilney invites her to his ancestral home, Northanger Abbey, a dark mystery starts to unfold that makes her blood run cold.

St. Ives review
$15.29
A classic Mexican comedy starring one film history's most beloved funnymen, Mario "Cantinflas" Moreno. A hilarious romp through slapstick mayhem, this film was actually the first time Cantinflas and comedian Carlos "Don Catarino" Orellana appeared together in a production. Also featured is a young Sara Garcia in one of her earliest roles.
An early and intriguing Cantinflas film for the fact that his character is still in the making, this story tells the tale of Don Boni, who is diagnosed with a deadly disease and decides to spend his last days doing something good. He frees himself from his wife, helps down and out guys, fixes a fight and pays cab fares for strangers. Somewhere along the way he gets drunk, buys a lottery ticket and falls asleep, only to wake up realizing he has won a large sum of money, and learns that the docutor who diagnosed him has been jailed for fraud.

$14.29
This documentary, produced by Julian Lennon, explores the connection between whales and a tribe. The aborigines he features center their culture--as well as their creation myth--on whales, even though both the tribe and the whales are slowly disappearing. WHALEDREAMERS features narration by Australian actor Jack Thompson (DECEMBER BOYS) and appearances from John Hurt, Pierce Brosnan, and Geoffrey Rush.
Whaledreamers - the title alone evokes hypnotic visions of these most magnificent and ancient creatures. This visually stunning film offers an incredible glimpse into a rarely seen and scarcely understood tribal culture whose entire story of creation revolves around whales and has endured for centuries. The film passionately explores the connection between the subtle elegance of these mothers of the sea and ancient civilizations around the world whose culture and very existence is based on whales. Intertwining incredible underwater footage with ancient legend, this film examines the complex past and the possibly dire future of human civilization.
