• Beyond the Valley of the Dolls + The Seven Minutes | Blu Ray | (18/01/2016) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £29.99

  When Easy Rider rewrote the box-office rulebook in 1969, Hollywood scrambled to catch up and 20th Century Fox noticed that one particular independent filmmaker was seeing impressive returns from tiny investments. So what would happen if he was given a decent budget and the run of a Hollywood studio and told to make the ultimate Russ Meyer film? Well, this is the result: an initially X-rated cult camp classic about an all-female rock band trying to parlay Midwestern success into a Hollywood contract with the aid of a hefty inheritance. But will they be able to maintain their trademark apple-pie wholesomeness under their new manager, the notorious Ronnie ˜Z-Man' Barzell? Take a wild guess. Co-scripted by film critic Roger Ebert, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is a merciless satire of Hollywood and the music business, a no-holds-barred psychedelic thrill-ride that gleefully stirs sex, drugs, rock'n'roll, fashion, lesbianism, transvestism and Nazis into one of the most riotously unhinged mainstream films ever made. This special edition also includes the rarely-seen The Seven Minutes (1971), Russ Meyer's Hollywood swansong, an adaptation of Irving Wallace's polemical novel about the absurdities of American obscenity laws. Includes Limited Edition Content: Limited Edition collection of both of Russ Meyer's Hollywood films (3000 copies) High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation of Beyond the Valley of the Dolls Standard Definition DVD presentation of The Seven Minutes Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for both films Original mono audio (uncompressed PCM on the Blu-ray) Two commentaries on Beyond the Valley of the Dolls by co-screenwriter Roger Ebert and actors Erica Gavin, John LaZar, Cynthia Myers, Harrison Page and Dolly Read Introduction to Beyond the Valley of the Dolls by John LaZar Above, Beneath and Beyond the Valley: The Making of a Musical-Horror-Sex-Comedy Look On Up at the Bottom, with composer Stu Phillips and three members of the Carrie Nations discussing the film's music The Best of Beyond, favourite moments selected by cast and crew members Sex, Drugs, Music & Murder: Signs of the Time, Baby!, a look at the late 1960s culture that spawned Beyond the Valley of the Dolls Casey & Roxanne: The Love Scene, discussed by participants Erica Gavin and Cynthia Myers Screen tests for Michael Blodgett, Cynthia Myers, Harrison Page, Marcia McBroom High Definition photo galleries Multiple trailers Reversible sleeve featuring two original artworks Booklet featuring new writing on the film by critic Kat Ellinger

• Girls - Complete HBO Season 1 | Blu Ray | (04/02/2013) from £8.69   |  Saving you £21.30 (71.00%)   |  RRP £29.99

  A devoted focus on an enigmatic, dynamic, yet seriously damaged female lead is the absorbing narrative focus of Enlightened. Laura Dern plays Amy Jellicoe, a high-powered executive at a soulless high-tech consumer products corporation who has a high-end freak-out at work after the dissolution of a disastrous affair with her married boss. The title and premise reveal themselves in nifty short order after this jarring prologue as Amy retreats to a specialized rehab facility in Hawaii, where she finds peace, tranquility, and a spiritual center that she brings back to her corporate world and the many stressors that are the result of Amy being Amy. The premiere episode packs a lot into 30 minutes, as does each subsequent installment by doling out backstory details about Amy's life pre- and post-meltdown. One of the triumphs of the absorbing mix of comedy and seriousness in Enlightened is the fact that its satirical core remains separate from its genuinely affecting character details and too-close-for-comfort observations about modern life. Though she appears to have made an honest change in her spiritual world, Amy is still deeply screwed up. The interactions that unfold with her family and coworkers continually try her newfound sense of well-being, illustrating that everyone's grasp of reality is always tenuous and subjective regardless of any sense of personal enlightenment. Amy's snippets of narration play like a self-help regimen aimed directly at the viewers; her affirmations are not just for her own benefit, they're also meant to bring us into the fold on her ongoing quest for illumination. "You can change," she says to herself, "and you can be an agent of change." Are you listening? Enlightened was developed (along with Dern) and written by Mike White, who also plays one of Amy's coworkers, Tyler, a marginally creepy, socially challenged misfit she gets stuck with in the bowels of a corporate IT hellhole. White has created a number of intriguing pieces of work as a writer, director, and actor (The Good Girl, Chuck and Buck, School of Rock, and episodes of Freaks and Geeks among them). His off-kilter sensibility is at its peak in Enlightened, which is restricted and enhanced by the concision of its format and the pithy fine points of plot that are simultaneously amusing, disturbing, and spot-on in their observational tone. The cast also includes Diane Ladd as Helen, Amy's mother (Dern's too), who's bewildered and more than a little exasperated when Amy moves in with her ready to heal something that Helen wants to stay broken. Luke Wilson plays Amy's ex-husband Levi, a man-child in love with drugs who Amy also wants to help by providing healing that he doesn't really want. All of these people and the many other characters in Amy's life that the show deftly introduces and weaves into its dramatic structure mostly keep their own counsel---just like people in the real world do. But when they talk it's important to listen closely. The 10 brisk episodes continue to reveal more about them all as the web of Amy's connections and the roots of her psychic vision quest unravels. Enlightened is the kind of show that requires active viewing and demands that attention be paid in order to get up to speed with its conceptual centre. But once hooked, nirvana in the form of a half-hour TV show is not far behind. --Ted Fry

• More Than Honey | Blu Ray | (11/11/2013) from £8.99   |  Saving you £6.00 (66.74%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Einstein once said: 'If bees ever die out mankind will have only four years left to live'. In the past five years billions of honeybees simply vanished for reasons still obscure. If the bees keep dying it will have drastic effects for humans as well: more than one third of our food production depends on pollination by honeybees and their life and death are linked to ours. Life without the bee is unthinkable. But between pesticides antibiotics and monoculture the queens and their workers are losing their power. More Than Honey a new documentary by the Swiss filmmaker Marcus Imhoof is looking into the fascinating world of bees showing small family beekeepers (including the beekeeper of Erste Foundation beehive Heidrun Singer) and industrialized honey farms. More Than Honey is a film about the relationship between mankind and honeybees about nature and about our future. Honeybees show us that stability is just as unhealthy as unlimited growth that crises and disasters are triggering evolution. Special Features: Interview with Director Markus Imhoof Deleted Scenes Making of Featurette Original Theatrical Trailer UK Theatrical Trailer Two versions of the film (one in the original language and one featuring a narration by John Hurt) Booklet (featuring an interview with Markus Imhoof and the Friends of the Earth '20 things you need to know about bees')

• Matangi / Maya / M.I.A. | Blu Ray | (10/12/2018) from £4.99   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  Drawn from a cache of personal video recordings from the past 22 years, director Steve Loveridge s Sundance award winning MATANGI / MAYA / M.I.A. is a startlingly personal profile of the critically acclaimed artist, chronicling her remarkable journey from refugee immigrant to pop star. She began as Matangi. Daughter of the founder of Sri Lanka s armed Tamil resistance, she hid from the government in the face of a vicious and bloody civil war. When her family fled to the UK, she became Maya, a precocious and creative immigrant teenager in London. Finally, the world met her as M.I.A. when she emerged on the global stage, having created a mashup, cut-and-paste identity that pulled from every corner of her journey along the way; a sonic sketchbook that blended Tamil politics, art school punk, hip-hop beats and the unwavering, ultra-confident voice of a burgeoning multicultural youth. Never one to compromise on her vision, Maya kept her camera rolling throughout. MATANGI / MAYA / M.I.A. provides unparalleled, intimate access to the artist in her battles with the music industry and mainstream media as her success and fame explodes, becoming one of the most recognizable, outspoken and provocative voices in music today.

  A critically acclaimed film that won a total of seven 1970 Academy Awards (including) Best Picture Patton is a riveting portrait of one of the 20th century's greatest military geniuses.

Charismatic and flamboyant Patton designed his own uniforms sported ivory-handled six-shooters and believed he was a warrior in past lives.

But he was rebellious as well as brilliant and as Patton shows with insight and poignancy his own volatile personality was the one enemy he could never defeat.
