SHEAR MAGIC DVD: This programme features Alan Shearer in brilliant goal scoring mood for his first top club Southampton, where he is seen linking up to form a lethal combination with Matt Le Tissier.

    VIKINGS - JOURNEY TO THE NEW WORLD DVD: They came from the North and soon legends said that they did not know fear. They sailed icy oceans and narrow rivers, striking far inland, without warning, without mercy. For hundreds of years, they were another name for terror. However, the truth about the Vikings is far more complex. Much of Europe s traditions, technology and institutions come to us from these fierce men of the North. Shot on location in Iceland, Greenland, and Newfoundland, this breathtaking IMAX film joins the Viking warriors, explorers and settlers as they set out in search of new lands. The North Atlantic Sagas come to life as we follow Eric the Red and his son Leif Ericsson, first to Greenland and then on to North America. State-of-the-art digital graphics dramatically illustrate the unique shipbuilding techniques that were the key to propelling the Vikings across the Atlantic and into history. LITTLE BOOK OF VIKINGS: The Vikings were savage raiders and ruthless adventurers whose grip of terror on much of western Europe endured from the eighth to the 11th centuries. Or were they? They brought pillage, rape and wanton destruction to every shore their dreaded longboats could reach. Or did they? It s true that these seafaring peoples from Norway, Sweden and Denmark spread out from their homelands in search of new societies with which to trade and new places to settle. It s true that Vikings raided many a terrified community and left a fearsome reputation in their wake. It s true that the phrase going on a viking came to mean taking part in a piratical expedition. But there is much more to the Vikings than the popular image portrays. They ventured much further than is usually thought, establishing trade connections as far from Scandinavia as Istanbul and Newfoundland, perhaps even the Far East. They took with them new ways of life and new aspects of culture. Vikings well known to British readers include King Cnut and even William the Conqueror.

    LOST IN EVEREST'S DEATH ZONE DVD: At noon on 13th May 1999, 22-year-old Michael Matthews became the youngest Briton to climb Everest. Four hours later, he was alone, lost in the most dangerous place on Earth. Bewildered and running out of oxygen, Michael would have known he was soon to die. His body has never been found. Michael became the 162nd person to die on Everest. To some he was another inexperienced climber caught out of his depth. But the other climbers in Michael s team tell a different story. They feel the expedition was a shambles and his death could easily have been avoided. They talk about the serious oxygen problems and their professional guide s violent temper and they claim the expedition was an accident waiting to happen. High quality film shot during the 1999 expedition makes the viewer feel they too are witnesses to what happened. A combination of dramatic reconstructions, actual expedition footage and interviews with those who were there make a dramatic, powerful, and compelling story of how a young man came to be alone in Everest s Death Zone.

  • Michael Nyman's Man With A Movie Camera [1929]Michael Nyman's Man With A Movie Camera | DVD | (22/07/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

    As you might guess from the rather impertinent possessive in the title, Michael Nyman's Man with a Movie Camera is a re-release of Dziga Vertov's 1929 experimentalist classic provided with a score by Michael Nyman. Those who know and love Nyman's music--and come to that, those who know and dislike it--will know pretty well what to expect: fluent orchestral minimalism turned out by the yard. The mood and the tempo scarcely vary, no matter what Vertov's showing us or how fast or slow the rhythm of his cutting. The effect is to tone down the excitement and audacity of Vertov's ideas and render them safe and even a touch bland. If you're a Nyman fan, this is definitely for you. Otherwise, the earlier BFI release of the same film has not one but two alternative scores: a pounding, heroic, forward-with-the-Soviets affair from the Alloy Orchestra, closely based on Vertov's own notes of the kind of orchestral accompaniment he wanted for his film; and a second from the progressive group In the Nursery, gentler and more expressionist, drawing on state-of-the-art music technology. (As a third option, the BFI release includes a well-informed voice-over commentary from film historian Yuri Tsivian.) On the DVD: Michael Nyman's Man with a Movie Camera comes to DVD packed in a hinged square metal tin reminiscent of the ones that hold small Dutch cigars. There are printed biogs of Vertov and Nyman, the latter rather cloyingly fulsome ("a man of impeccable musical credentials"). The transfer is excellent and pretty well complete; a few minor blemishes where the original nitrate stock had deteriorated scarcely detract. --Philip Kemp
