  This is a powerful comedy drama about four women who discover untapped strength within themselves when they finally let go of what divides them. In the blink of an eye the happily married Rebecca Lott becomes a widow or as she puts it 'the w word'. She is not alone for long however when her eccentric friend Sylvia neurotic younger sister Lucy and controlling ex-stepmother Alberta move in with a lot of baggage - both emotional and literal! But when Alberta hires a sexy house painter to raise Rebecca's spirits he inspires unforseen passion - and unexpected compassion - within each of the women as they learn to let down their defences and let go of their innermost fears. Both poetically poignant and fall-down funny Moonlight and Valentino will make its way into your heart.

• The Fall Of The Romanoff Dynasty | DVD | (22/04/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  No revolution has been portrayed on screen more vividly than St Petersburg (Petrograd) in October 1917, and if what we see in Soviet films of the 1920s is not exactly the truth as it happened, The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty confirms that even fact can be reinterpreted. Esfir Shub’s 1927 documentary uses a wealth of archive footage--beginning with Romanov tercentennial celebrations in 1913, and ending with the Bolshevik takeover four years on. Here truth really is fashioned into myth: it’s good to have Oleg Donskikh's introduction and continuous commentary as to what actually happened, pointing out economies with the actualité on a scene-by-scene basis. The musical score consists of a medley of Russian favourites, pounded out on an electric piano, making for a rather limited, though not inappropriate, soundtrack. On the DVD: the additional documentary essay is a useful overview, worth consulting beforehand; the on-screen Romanov photo collection reproduces well and is a valuable bonus. The documentary has been digitally remastered, the 4:3 aspect ratio having excellent clarity. Stylishly packaged, this is a period piece of considerable historical and cultural importance. --Richard Whitehouse

  The Liberation of Auschwitz Etched deeply into the pages of history, Auschwitz conjures up images of death, torture and unimaginable human suffering. At the time of release only 18 minutes of the footage contained within this DVD had been seen in the west; despite it being used as damning prosecution evidence at the Nuremburg Trials. Recorded from January to February 1945 by a Soviet film crew attached to the 1st Ukrainian Front, the programme tells the story of the liberation of the Auschwitz camp. Dachau & Sachsenhausen Whilst Hitler sought the answers to his “Jewish problem”, more and more centres of containment sprung up throughout Nazi occupied Europe. Two such camps were Dachau and Sachsenhausen, and although perhaps not such recognisable names as Auschwitz, they were no less crucial in the persecution and extermination ofthe European Jews. Ghetto Theresienstatd Between 1941 and 1945 the small fortress town of Theresienstadt in Czechoslovakia became a transit point to the death camps in the east for thousands of Czech, German, Austrian and Dutch Jews. All those deported to Theresienstadt were led to believe it was an “end camp” from which they would travel no further. They were promised a comfortable and peaceful life in the “Reich home for the aged” and were hoodwinked into signing over to the S.S. all of their properties and assets. The Yellow Star - The Persecution of the Jews in Europe 1933-1945 This Oscar™ nominated documentary serves not only as a remembrance but a lesson and a warning for the future. It follows the plight of Europe’s Jews during the terrifying period from 1933 until the final defeat of the Third Reich in 1945. Never before had the world seen such contempt for human life on such a grand scale with the murder of an estimated 6 million Jews with countless others persecuted. Ravensbruck & Buchenwald Ravensbruck: Women from more than 20 countries were incarcerated between 1939 and 1945 in the Ravensbruck concentration camp in Germany. They were subjected to gross maltreatment, humiliation and some were tortured to death all in the name of the Third Reich.Buchenwald: After being established in the German town of Weimar in the summer of 1937, Buchenwald developed into one of the largest concentration camps in Germany, with approximately 250,000 inmates fromsome 35 different countries. More than 50,000 were to die during the reign of terror by torture, deliberate starvation and systematic culling. Majdanek This rare and stark documentary graphically portrays the methodical murder, starvation and torture of an estimated 2 million innocent victims and demonstrates the frightening efficiency of the German death camp. Also captured here on film are rare scenes from a Russian post-war tribunal, where survivors are seen giving evidence against captured SS officers and camp officials, this evidence was often to result in the conviction and execution of those standing accused.
