• Mosquito Squadron | DVD | (05/05/2003) from £8.50   |  Saving you £4.49 (52.82%)   |  RRP £12.99

  World War II aviation buffs may quibble with the details of Mosquito Squadron, but they'll love it just the same. It's an average war movie, capably directed by Boris Sagal, who thrived in television before he was tragically killed by a helicopter rotor in 1981. At the peak of his post-Man from UNCLE success, David McCallum plays a melancholy RAF ace, leading his squadron of De Havilland "Mosquito" bombers on low-altitude strikes over Nazi strongholds in Germany and France. His ground-based dilemma involves the grieving wife of his best friend, a fellow pilot presumed dead but later discovered alive with other POWs held at a French chalet where the Nazis are developing advanced V-class bombers. The RAF employs bouncing "highballs" capable of penetrating difficult targets, and the rousing climax doubles as a rescue mission and treacherous bombing run. Explosive action compensates for predictable melodrama, and Rocky Horror fans will enjoy seeing Charles ("the Criminologist") Gray as a stuffy RAF Commodore. --Jeff Shannon

• Mark Morris Dance Group - Mark Morris - The Hard Nut | DVD | (20/10/2008) from £20.23   |  Saving you £-5.24 (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Ballet in two acts from the Th''atre Royal de la Monnaie Brussels. Based on Nutcracker and Mouse King by E.T.A. Hoffmann. For his witty and audacious Nutcracker award-winning choreographer Mark Morris uses Tchaikovsky''s original score but his story is closer to E.T.A. Hoffmann''s more grisly original Nutcracker and Mouse King than the cosier traditional versions of the ballet. It was filmed at the Th''''tre Royal de la Monnaie Brussels in 1992 and American cartoonist Charles Burns'' pop art set provides the backdrop. As in Hoffmann''s story there is a party at the Stahlbaum''s but this one is set in 60s America with vicious sibling rivalry a stifling marriage and clashing agendas of the campest bunch of guests in town. The Dance of the Snowflakes is a highlight and a Morris masterpiece with men and women in tutus spraying handfuls of snow and sweeping up on pointes. The national dances are funny and inventive with Morris as an Arabic woman in flowing robes. This is Morris at his most entertaining. The Symphony Orchestra and Chorus of the Th''''tre Royal de la Monnaie is conducted by the theatre''s Musical Director Sylvain Cambreling.

• Zulu Dawn | DVD | (05/01/2004) from £9.99   |  Saving you £4.00 (40.04%)   |  RRP £13.99

  Cy Endfield cowrote the epic prequel Zulu Dawn 15 years after his enormously popular Zulu. Set in 1879, this film depicts the catastrophic Battle of Isandhlwana, which remains the worst defeat of the British army by natives--the British contingent was outnumbered 16-to-1 by the Zulu tribesmen. The film's opinion of events is made immediately clear in its title sequence: ebullient African village life presided over by King Cetshwayo is contrasted with aristocratic artifice under the arrogant eye of General Lord Chelmsford (Peter O'Toole). Chelmsford is at the heart of all that goes wrong, initiating the catastrophic battle with an ultimatum made seemingly for the sake of giving his troops something to do. His detached manner leads to one mistake after another and this is wryly illustrated in a moment when neither he nor his officers can be bothered to pronounce the name of the land they're in. That it's a beautiful land none the less is made clear by the superb cinematography, which drinks in the massive open spaces that shrink the British army to a line of red ants. Splendidly stiff-upper-lipped support comes from a heroic Burt Lancaster and a fluffy, yet gruff, Bob Hoskins. Although the story is less focused and inevitably more diffuse than the concentrated events of Rorke's Drift that followed soon after, Zulu Dawn is an unflinchingly honest depiction of British Imperial diplomacy. --Paul Tonks
