• The Legend of Marilyn Monroe | DVD | (22/08/2005) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  In this excellent documentary the legendary Marilyn Monroe is brought to life in an expos of one of the screen's most iconic stars. Ever since her untimely death the whole case has been shrouded in mystery and this DVD seeks to unlock some of the secrets of the real Marilyn. With interviews from Dean Martin Shelley Winters and many more we try to understand what her innermost feelings were in the time leading up to her sad demise. From the dysfunctional life she suffered throughout her early years to the blossoming of the young Norma Jean who recognised her stunning good looks were beginning to turn heads; in particular when she posed for the famous nude calendar. Suddenly the gates of the major Hollywood studios were flung open. Her future seemed assured but her life would be turbulent with failed marriages miscarriages and a growing danger from the effects of pill popping. In hindsight it seems a prophetic statement when at President Kennedy's birthday party she was introduced as the `late' Marilyn Monroe - tragically shortly afterwards the unintended pun proved to be the heartbreaking fact!

• The Postman Always Rings Twice | DVD | (06/12/1999) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  In The Postman Always Rings Twice, Jack Nicholson teamed up again with his Five Easy Pieces and King of Marvin Gardens director Bob Rafelson for this 1981 version of James M. Cain's hardboiled novel of lust and murder. This version takes a much grittier (and sexually explicit) approach to the material than the slick 1946 MGM version starring John Garfield and Lana Turner. Nicholson plays Frank Chambers, a drifter who happens upon a roadside diner run by Cora Papadakis (Jessica Lange) and her swarthy Greek husband, Nick (John Colicos). Sparks fly, and before you can say l'amour fou, Frank and Cora are making the beast with two backs on the kitchen table. One thing leads to another and they conspire to murder Nick. The movie is still a little too cold and distant to fully convey a hot-blooded passion that leads to murder, but it is a strangely haunting and disturbing film nevertheless. The screenplay is by David Mamet, the photography is by the great Sven Nykvist (Ingmar Bergman's cinematographer), and watch for Anjelica Huston in a supporting role. --Jim Emerson
