• Honour Of The Knights | DVD | (26/03/2008) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  There are no windmills only wind-and trees and grass and sunlight extinguishing the dawn-in writer-director Albert Serra's extraordinary minimalist/naturalist take on the Don Quixote story. Honour Of The Knights takes inspiration not just from Cervantes but also from an exhaustive litany of other literary and cinematic sources. It is most affecting however as a spare yet soulful study of two lone figures against an unspoiled landscape-the last refuge perhaps from a world that no longer resembles a bygone golden age of peace and prosperity. There is a whistful air to the film as the frail weather-beaten Quixote (Llu''-s Carb'') trudges forth in the company of the loyal Sancho (Llu''-s Serrat) pausing periodically to rest bask in a gentle stream or impart some terse morsel of wisdom.

• 100 Days Before The Command | DVD | (02/04/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  If it's high-action thrills and spills or an engaging plot line that you're after, then Hussein Erkenov's bleak art film 100 Days Before the Command may not be your first choice. However, students of the uniquely Russian school of filmmaking should make a point of seeing this stark, unhurried piece of work (the film's actual 67-minutes seems to last a lot longer). Detailing the experiences of a handful of young Russian soldiers, the various narrative strains barely tie together as a whole, leaving the viewer struggling to follow the action. But the plot would seem to be secondary to Erkenov's visuals, understandably low-tech given that the film was shot in 1990, a mere year after the fall of the Iron Curtain. Long, slow tracking shots abound and there are many periods of absolute silence and little action, although the film captures military brutality just as well as the likes of Full Metal Jacket. This is hard work but rewarding viewing. --Phil Udell
