  • RainRain | DVD | (22/05/2006) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

    Rain is the second film version of Somerset Maugham's oft-filmed story Miss Thompson a shocking tale by period standards and a melodrama well-served by director Lewis Milestone's expressionistic style. The film stars the young Joan Crawford as Sadie Thompson a San Francisco prostitute hoping to start a new life in the South Seas. While on the island of Pago Pago she becomes involved with a group of soldiers and falls in love with one of them Sgt. Tim O'Hara (William Gargan). This puts her at odds with Rev. Alfred Davidson (Walter Huston) a hellfire and brimstone religious reformer who has already converted the native people to Christianity and who intends to protect the purity of the soldiers. The minister has O'Hara confined to quarters and threatens Sadie with deportation having learned that she was indicted for a crime although unaware she was framed. Davidson becomes strangely obssessed with reforming the prostitute and harangues her relentlessly about renouncing her evil ways until Sadie gradually is filled with the spirit of repentance. But for the minister the power of beauty trumps the power of the Lord with surprising consequences. Beautiful yet unusual camera work by Oliver Marsh adds to the film's unique character.

  • The Last Emperor [DVD]The Last Emperor | DVD | (04/10/2004) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

    Bernardo Bertolucci does the nearly impossible with this sweeping, grand epic that tells a very personal tale. The story is a dramatic history of Pu Yi, the last of the emperors of China. It follows his life from its elite beginnings in the Forbidden City, where he was crowned at age three and worshipped by half a billion people. He was later forced to abdicate and, unable to fend for himself in the outside world, became a dissolute and exploited shell of a man. He died in obscurity, living as a peasant in the People's Republic. We never really warm up to John Lone in the title role, but The Last Emperor focuses more on visuals than characterisation anyway. Filmed in the Forbidden City, it is spectacularly beautiful, filling the screen with saturated colours and exquisite detail. It won nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. --Rochelle O'Gorman
