• Blonde | DVD | (25/10/2010) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Based on the best selling novel by Joyce Carol Oates this provocative miniseries delivers a seductive portrait of the captivating star that became America's most enduring sex symbol. The stunning saga of Marilyn Monroe's life begins with her traumatic upbringing as Norma Jean: the damage inflicted by a psychotic mother the absence of any father the devastation of four years in an orphanage and betrayal in a foster home. On the young Monroe's rocky road to stardom she performs sexual favour for studio chiefs who underestimate her talent and intelligence while reaping millions from her movies. Her vulnerability is often camouflaged by volatile behaviour. At times self-absorbed and frightened Monroe could also be tough outspoken and vulgar. Her notorious perfectionism is her shield against the ridicule and failure she continually fears. Monroe's stormy marriages to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller reveal her insatiable need for security and love. She is doomed by an unimaginable combination of Hollywood exploitation dependence on drugs and flawed choices of lovers and mates. JFK's cruel manipulation and shadowy intervention is the final blow to her fragile existence. Blonde draws a sharp-eyed picture of the movie business during the 1940s and 50s and conveys a nation's fascination with a legendary cultural icon. Starring Poppy Montgomery (Without A Trace Law & Order) as Norma Jean with Patrick Dempsey (Grey's Anatomy Transformers 3 Enchanted) Griffin Dunne (Law & Order Frasier) Patricia Richardson (The West Wing Home Improvement) and Kirstie Alley (Cheers Look Who's Talking).

• 101 & 102 Dalmatians (Double Pack) | DVD | (10/09/2001) from £22.98   |  Saving you £10.00 (50.03%)   |  RRP £29.99

  It's hard to know who thought it would be a good idea to make a live-action version of Disney's animated classic, 101 Dalmatians (and originally Dodie Smith's classic children's story). The one bright notion anyone had was casting Glenn Close as Disney Übervillainess Cruella de Vil; her flashing eyes and angular features are a perfect match and do credit to what is one of the most indelible animated characters Disney has ever created. The story remains essentially the same, focusing on Cruella's plot to kidnap the puppies of a young married couple (Jeff Daniels and Joely Richardson) and make them into a coat. But the dreaded John Hughes, who wrote this script, fills it with sadistic slapstick and far too few genuine laughs. The human actors work hard, but to little avail; thankfully, there's a posse of puppies to regularly steal scenes when the going gets dreary--although there are only so many laughs to be had from inappropriate dog puddles. --Marshall Fine, Amazon.com Don't be fooled by the title, there are four reasons to like 102 Dalmatians, the sequel to the successful live-action remake of Disney's 101 Dalmatians. There are the 101 spotted pooches, Glenn Close back in fine form as Cruella DeVil, Oddball--the spotless Dalmatian pup--and Waddlesworth, a parrot who thinks he's a rottweiler (and is voiced by Monty Python's Eric Idle). There are just as many reasons to be disappointed: like most sequels, the story line is virtually a rewrite of t he first; the secondary casting isn't as interesting; the dialogue merely serves to move the plot along; and the third act substitutes mean-spiritedness for comedy. After a period of rehabilitation, Cruella has returned to her old tricks. Once again, she simply must have a spotted coat and will go to any lengths to get hold of the 102 Dalmatians needed to make one with a hood. She sets her sights on the pups owned by her probation officer, Chloe (Alice Evans), and the owner of a local animal shelter, Kevin (Ioan Gruffudd). Her servant Alonso (Tim McInnerny) and flamboyant furrier Monsieur Le Pelt (Gerard Depardieu, in one ridiculous outfit after another) are drafted to aid in her quest. It should come as no surprise that Chloe and Kevin fall in love, Oddball helps to save the day and Cruella is defeated. Children should enjoy the animal high jinks, but adults are less likely to be enamoured by this perfectly competent, but relatively charmless affair. --Kathleen C Fennessy, Amazon.com.
