| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP Five of iconic film director Wim Wenders' key documentaries collected together in Wenders Classics box set packaging with new bonus features and an exclusive limited edition collector's booklet. A must-have for Wenders fans. Nick's Film: Lightning Over Water: In 1979 award-winning German filmmaker Wim Wenders travelled to New York City to make a movie with legendary American auteur Nicholas Ray as he lay dying of terminal cancer. Surrounded by family and friends the director of such Hollywood classics as Rebel Without a Cause Johnny Guitar and They Live By Night reflects on a career of triumphs and compromises as he faces his final days with hope humour and the fierce independent spirit that defined his greatest works. Together Ray and Wenders create a film that is more than a documentary telling an extraordinarily moving story about collaboration that goes beyond friendship and ultimately a life in cinema that transcends death itself. Room 666: The year is 1982. Filmmakers across the globe converge on the south of France for the Cannes Film Festival the industry's most prestigious annual event. One by one they are led in to the cramped confines of Room 666 at the Hotel Martinez and forced to answer a difficult and engaging question: What is the future of cinema? The directors become the subject when some of the film's greatest visionaries bare their souls and wax romantic about the fate of moviemaking. Steven Spielberg Michelangelo Antonioni Werner Herzog and Jean-Luc Godard headline an all-star cast of auteurs in this eclectic documentary by acclaimed director Wim Wenders. Tokyo-Ga: Oscar-nominated director Wim Wenders turns his camera toward the Far East in this captivating love letter to the world's most bustling metropolis. Using the films of director Yasujiro Ozu as a window into the Tokyo landscape Wenders examines the sociology of Tokyo in both the past and present in an effort to understand the evolution of Japan's national identity. Highlighted by an interview with fellow filmmaker Werner Herzog Tokyo-Ga is a fascinating amalgam of personal experience and global introspection that aims to question the meaning of nostalgia in a city that thrives on change. Notebook On Cities And Clothes: In 1989 the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris asked director Wim Wenders to create a film about the world of fashion. Initially resistant to the idea Wenders soon became fascinated by the craft and philosophy of Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto as he prepared his new season's collection. From the streets and studios of Tokyo to the boulevards and catwalks of Paris Wenders uncovers the essence of Yamamoto's work while exploring the enigma of style the language of images and the very nature of human identity. The result is an extraordinary examination of both fashion and cinema as a way of life carried along only by unique vision and vivid curiosity. A Trick Of The Light: Long fascinated with the ever-changing culture of world cinema exploratory director Wim Wenders pays a visit to his alma mater in an effort to recreate the magic and wonder of film in its most infantile state.

| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP Coming soon to a hotel pay channel near you, Stripshow, with its rednecks and top-heavy trailer-trash, is the American softcore equivalent of movies like Bridget Jones's Diary, which are more-or-less targeted at the kind of people who are in them. Tane McClure plays a stripper who acquires a suitcase full of money from an aged punter who expires during a show. She than attempts to track down an ex-lover, who eventually wanders off into the desert to die rather than risk appearing in the sequel. The end. Actually, there's rather a lot of wandering off into the desert in this movie. There's also some--but not much--of the usual faked bonking, but the closest thing to a genuinely erotic scene is the obligatory lipstick-lesbian encounter which takes place in a Native American teepee (although you can't help thinking that, somewhere off-camera, Fox Mulder is being distracted from communing with a shaman), and even that's a pretty truncated episode--after all, Billy-Bob, it just ain't natural. Anyone who'd like to see McClure in a real film may prefer to check out Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas instead. On the DVD: Stripshow has nothing extra on this 4:3 release other than a few cast biogs--not even subtitles, so listening to the dialogue is unfortunately compulsory. --Roger Thomas

Silent Running | Blu Ray | (14/11/2011)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP After creating many of the innovative special effects for 2001: A Space Odyssey, Douglas Trumbull tried his hand at directing, and 1971's Silent Running marked an impressive debut. (In addition to creating the visual effects for Close Encounters of the Third Kind and directing 1983's Brainstorm, Trumbull later turned to the creation of high-tech cinematic amusement park rides.) One of the best science-fiction films of the 1970s, Silent Running stars Bruce Dern as Freeman Lowell, a nature-loving crewmember aboard the Valley Forge, a gigantic spaceship in a small fleet that carries the last surviving forests of the Earth, which has fallen victim to overpopulation and ecological neglect.Freeman's name reflects his nonconformist philosophy, which runs counter to the prevailing recklessness of his three ill-fated crewmates, who are eager to jettison their precious payload and return to the bleakness of Earth. Before they can sabotage the forests, Freeman does what he must, and spends the remainder of his mission with three robotic "drones" as his only companions, struggling to maintain his sanity in the vastness of space. Dern is superb in this memorable role, representing the lost soul of humankind as well as the back-to-nature youth movement of the 1960s and the pre-Watergate era. (Appropriately, Joan Baez sings the film's theme song.) A rare science-fiction film that combines bold adventure with passionate social conscience, Silent Running will remain relevant as long as the Earth is threatened by the ravages of human carelessness. --Jeff Shannon, Amazon.com
