• Glass Dolls | DVD | (25/08/2008) from £8.99   |  Saving you £6.00 (85.84%)   |  RRP £12.99

  The mists that wreathe the eerie city of Venice become the hunting ground for a faceless child killer that seemingly cannot be stopped in the taut and brilliant thriller Who Saw Her Die? directed by Aldo Lado (Night Train Murders). When Franco (in a career-best performance by George Lazenby) loses his daughter to this shadowy elusive murderer he sets off on an unnerving journey of retribution that will bring him to the very edge of his sanity and quite possibly his life too. Rigid with tense atmospheric style this film bears an uncanny resemblance in mood to the classic Dont Look Now but was actually made a year before. Boasting starkly evocative cinematography by Franco Di Giacomo (Il Postino) and a score by Ennio Morricone Who Say Her Die haunts the mind long after viewing it.

• BIRTH OF A NATION, THE (Masters of Cinema) (DVD) | DVD | (29/07/2013) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £17.99

  One of the most artistically significant and controversial motion pictures ever made D. W. Griffith's silent epic The Birth of a Nation was a massive commercial success at the time of its release owing to its dynamic storytelling and its breakthrough developments in cinema language that have become common traits of practically every film that has since followed. However the picture's legacy is one that continues to elicit outrage over its vulgar depictions of African-Americans and its deceptive historiography of the United States in the second half of the nineteenth century. The Birth of a Nation begins depicting the amiable relationship between two families Northern and Southern and the way in which the impending Civil War intensifies the conflict of their worldviews. Following the end of the war and the assassination of President Lincoln a lawless chaos courses throughout the Reconstruction South and the Ku Klux Klan is formed to take on a rising black militia and impose a vengeful vigilante justice across their land and birthright. It's a film that's deeply divisive even to the senses of a single viewer: images of painterly beauty in composition and tonal quality often exhibit a contemptuous inflammatory coarseness with regard to subject matter; just as frequently long tracts evince an innocent terrifically lyrical grandeur. Griffith would attempt to make amends for the moral schism of this schizophrenic epic in his next film Intolerance but The Birth of a Nation cannot - and should not - remain unseen or undiscussed: it is a great and terrible masterpiece. The Masters of Cinema Series releases Griffith's three-hour epic including a series of the director's Civil War shorts for the first time on Blu-ray in the UK.
