This is the film that brought Bette Davis to fame and secured her future roles as a tough domineering woman. Fine acting by the entire cast with Davis an absolute knock-out.

• KYTV - Series 3 | DVD | (29/01/2007) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  The final series of this brilliant comedy satire saw the return of the satellite TV station with all-too-many Mikes and Annas and a selection of low-budget tragically-presented slightly familiar shows. The KYTV team was brimming with comedy talent: Angus Deayton was great as Mike Channel the station's ""imploding"" personality; Geoffrey Perkins played the smarmy Mike Flex; Michael Fenton Stevens was the inept Martin Brown and Helen Atkinson Wood splendidly irritated as the Anneka Rice-like Anna Daptor - these performances were capped by Philip Pope's brilliantly parodied pop hits. The third series produced many of the show's memorable moments including a documentary about the making of the play David Chizzlenut (loosely based on an idea by Charles Dickens); a journey back to the sexciting Sixties with the help of Kenneth Wolstenholme and the Fabulous Fourpenny Ones; Fly on the Walls where the team goes to Gravesend to live with an ordinary family (the Walls) for a year and the memorable holiday parody Get Away with You!

• The Grapes Of Wrath - Book & DVD | DVD | (08/08/2005) from £27.99   |  Saving you £-12.00 (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  John Ford's memorable screen version of John Steinbeck's epic novel of the Great Depression--often regarded as the director's best film--stars Henry Fonda as Tom Joad. After having served a brief prison sentence for manslaughter Joad arrives at his family's Oklahoma farm only to find it abandoned. Muley (John Qualen) a neighbor now nearly mad with grief tells Tom of the drought that has transformed the farmland of Oklahoma into a desert and of the preying land agents who have plowed under the shacks of the sharecroppers. Joined by former hellfire preacher Casy (John Carradine) Tom finds his extended family including Pa (Charles Grapewin) and his indomitable Ma (Jane Darwell) packing their ramshackle truck to seek work in the fields of California. As the family treks across the country their dissolution begins with the deaths of Tom's grandparents at close intervals. When they arrive in California the Joads find only an abundance of poverty-stricken migrants like themselves and little in the way of potential work. Yet ever resilient they maintain their dignity hoping for the best. Among the talented cast Fonda does perhaps the best work of his career as does Qualen in the film's most haunting sequence. Director of photography Gregg Toland captures the suffering and the weathered luminous nobility of the Joads and the other uprooted drifting families creating striking images equal to the best work of Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans. In a stirring film that stands as a microcosm of the depression experience of millions Ford gives poverty a human face in a way that was rare then and even rarer in the decades to follow as Hollywood films with a sense of class consciousness dwindled like a species nearing extinction.
