The Women Of Brewster Place is a gripping and loving group portrait of seven women whose backs are literally against the wall: a surrounding wall whose brick facade has turned the address of Brewster Place into both a real and symbolic dead end. It is a street overflowing with tales of courage and anguish. For the women who call this home (played by Oprah Winfrey Robin Givens and Cicely Tyson among others) Brewster Place is a source of conflicts amid the dark and overcrowded tenements. Despite their different backgrounds these women are ultimately united in a single act of courage against the walls of racism sexism and violence in a stirring climax.
The Thames provides a backdrop to the high-spirited clowning of rubber-faced vaudevillian Leslie Fuller in this breezy nautical comedy co-scripted by BAFTA nominee Val Valentine and Fuller's regular collaborator Syd Courtenay. Direction comes from silent-era and Hal Roach/Laurel & Hardy veteran Ralph Ceder. Made at the height of his fame in 1935 Captain Bill features Fuller in the hugely popular role of the dim-witted Cockney – this time as a luckless bargee who unwittingly gets himself involved with a gang of gun-runners! Also starring Fuller's stalwart sidekick Hal Gordon this classic comedy feature is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Essentially an R&B soap opera complete with the sets lighting convoluted plotlines and scandalous secrets of daytime TV Trapped In The Closet features its star and a cast of characters very literally acting out the actions the song describes. The plot involves numerous infidelities a homosexual affair a gun and as this is an R. Kelly piece of work at least one steamy sex scene. The attention to detail is astounding hilarious and typical of Kelly as he describes everything from the fear he experiences while hiding from his lover's husband to the leg cramp he gets while having sex with his wife. Kelly's smooth vocals give voice to everything even as the different characters mouth the lyrics. Though the project recalls the cheating themes of old blues songs evokes the look of daytime drama and contains the controlled raunchiness of vintage Kelly it's safe to say that Trapped In The Closet represents a new direction in R&B and is like nothing else audiences have ever seen before. This audacious collection presents the first 22 episodes of the ""Hip-Hopera.""
