Third World Cop | DVD | (11/09/2000)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP Shot on the streets of Kingston and set to a rich reggae score by Sly and Robbie, the highest grossing film in Jamaican cinema (according to the producers) is a simple cops-and-gangsters thriller that drops the usual two-fisted cop clichés into the slums of a developing nation. Charismatic Paul Campbell (who starred in the previous Jamaican hit Dancehall Queen) is Capone, a Jamaican Dirty Harry who wades into shoot-outs with both guns blazing. His maverick reputation lands him in Kingston, his hometown, where he tracks a gun-smuggling scheme to his boyhood friend Ratty (Mark Danvers), now the ambitious right-hand man to the local kingpin. It's a familiar story and the timid script always chooses action over drama. Capone's violent methods are never questioned, even when he's faced with old friends instead of faceless hoods, and he is given unimaginable leeway to shoot his way through the criminal population. Shot on digital video and released to theatres in a smeary-looking transfer, the video release is mastered from the digital source and looks infinitely better than its theatrical incarnation: crisp, bright and vivid. The energetic style helps the picture overcome some of its generic cop-movie clichés, but the real draw is the street grit of clapboard houses, corrugated metal fences and concrete brick homes: the matter-of-fact poverty of Kingston's slums. --Sean Axmaker

| RRP Northfork: Northfork is a mythical tale of loss and resurrection continuing The Polish Brothers' cinematic obsession with the American heartland and the country's shifting dreams and visions. It is 1955 and the barren town of Northfork is quite literally about to be 'dammed'. Plans for a new hydro-electric plant in the area mean that the plains on which the town stands are soon to be flooded. With most of the townsfolk already evacuated several stoic citizens remain among them a lustful young couple a modern-day Noah who has built an ark for his two wives and a frail orphan boy who dreams he is the lost member of a host of wandering angels. Charged with removing the last of the residents is an Evacuation Committee comprising of six trench-coated agents some of whom will discover their own lives profoundly changed before the deluge is over. (Dir. Michael Polish 2003) Twin Falls Idaho: A different kind of love story. The minute he wakes up and the minute before sleep - for two minutes each day Blake Falls feels alone. He tries to grab those minutes before they vanish. They are enough to remind him who he is. Francis Falls understands that if it weren't for Blake he wouldn't be able to make it. His conjoined twin's heart is very strong. Blake he knows could live without him. The brothers live quietly in an eccentric hotel peopled with odd characters talking in a shorthand formed over 25 years. They dress impeccably in a custom-tailored suit adjusting each other's ties; they dine on cotton candy and on their birthday their only meal is their trademark chocolate cake; they blow out two candles one at a time. They can keep straight faces while telling outrageous tales from their earlier days in show business. When Francis becomes ill Blake holds him through the night the way he always has. Together they feel complete. When Penny (Michele Hicks) a beautiful young woman enters their lives for the first time someone sees the brothers' world from the inside. She makes them think of possibilities when they're certain there aren't any. They start to wonder how it would be to feel complete in new ways. ""Maybe I'll call you when I'm single "" Blake quips. They imagine living not as medical anomalies but as individuals who can breathe walk and dream on their own. (Dir. Michael Polish 1999)
