  • The Simple Life - Season 1 [2003]The Simple Life - Season 1 | DVD | (19/04/2004) from £5.92   |  Saving you £10.07 (63.00%)   |  RRP £15.99

    The hook of The Simple Life is irresistible: two wealthy, pampered young women go from upper-crust Los Angeles to an Arkansas farm to prove that they can survive without their mobile phones and credit cards. As hotel heiress Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie (daughter of pop star Lionel) blithely move in with a farm family, the Ledings, the culture clash immediately becomes a train wreck; when asked to pluck chickens, Richie declares, "I'm not plucking anything but my eyebrows." They try to work a series of jobs (at a dairy farm, a fast-food joint and a livestock auction), but they possess not a jot of work ethic, nor any sense of the consequences of failure. Like the girls themselves, this 2003 reality show becomes fascinating and repellent, comic and horrifying. It's like watching alien beings trying to masquerade as people. --Bret Fetzer

    Triple bill of films produced by Hong Kong filmmaker Wong Kar-Wai. 'The Eagle Shooting Heroes' (1993) is an action comedy directed by Jeffrey Lau parodying the 'wuxia' genre of kung-fu films with a sprawling plot replete with big fight scenes ultra-complex love stories and goofy musical numbers. Major Hong Kong stars including Tony Leung Maggie Cheung Brigitte Lin Leslie Cheung and Jacky Cheung step up to the plate of self-parody with gusto in this crazy tale of treason treachery magic and martial arts. 'First Love - Litter On the Breeze' (1997) is a postmodern romance directed by Eric Kot which tells two interwining stories on the subject of first love interspersed with commentary by the director about how and why the film was made. In the first narrative strand Takeshi Kaneshiro stars as an emotionally damaged rubbish collector who befriends and falls in love with a teenage sleepwalker (Lee Wai-Wai). In the second a married grocer (Eric Kot) bumps into his first love (Karen Mok) a decade after jilting her at the altar an encounter that wreaks havoc on his domestic life. Christopher Doyle directs 'Away With Words' (1999) a drama about Asano (Tadanobu Asano) a man with mnemonic memory; for him words have tangible shapes tastes smells and colours and can never be forgotten once he has heard them. Travelling to Hong Kong he meets flamboyant bar owner Kevin (Kevin Sherlock) a man whose colourful past has been lost in a drink-fuddled haze and who cannot even remember the Cantonese name of the street where he lives. As the relationship between these two very different men unfolds it becomes clear that words only seem to stand in the way of their future together.
