• Muppet Treasure Island | DVD | (03/02/2003) from £5.99   |  Saving you £12.00 (200.33%)   |  RRP £17.99

• Everything - The Real Thing Story | DVD | (26/10/2020) from £9.45   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £N/A

  The national press dubbed them The Black Beatles , four working class boys from one of Liverpool s toughest neighbourhoods who became Britain s most enduring black soul and funk act ever. With a string of hits, they dominated the international charts throughout the 1970s with iconic songs like You to Me Are Everything, Can t Get By Without You and Can You Feel the Force. But The Real Thing s meteoric success was also tempered with personal tragedy, drug addiction and racial prejudice. Simon Sheridan s widely acclaimed documentary tells the incredible true story of Britain s first black music revolution, and features illuminating interviews with the band, plus Billy Ocean, Kim Wilde, David Essex, Trevor Nelson, Paul Barber, Denise Pearson and Louis Emerick. Narrated by Jacob Anderson (from TV s Game of Thrones).

• Waking The Dead | DVD | (04/04/2005) from £12.45   |  Saving you £-6.46 (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Waking the Dead, like director-writer Keith Gordon's earlier films (The Chocolate War, A Midnight Clear, Mother Night), is based on a well-regarded modern novel (by Scott Spencer) and has a great many quiet virtues: a genuine engagement with near-contemporary America, complicated characters well-played by a cast of perfectly selected not-quite-star performers and a questioning approach that sits ill with the too-easy answers of most contemporary films. The complex story opens in 1974 with the death in a car bomb explosion of Sarah Williams (Jennifer Connelly), a radical working with a faction of left-wing Catholics to rescue dissidents from Chile. This has a devastating effect on her straighter boyfriend, Fielding Pierce (Billy Crudup), who is working within the system with an eye on rising in the Democratic Party through the patronage of a senior figure (Hal Holbrook), the man who is eventually to become the President. We flash back to 1972 and Fielding's intense relationship with Sarah, marked by romantic and political differences that feel far more real than the contrived oppositional arguments in most political movies. Then skip 10 years forward to find a sleeker, hollow-faced Fielding running for Congress, tormented not only by memories of Sarah but her actual or phantasmal appearances. Another film might play this as a paranoid mystery thriller, but this goes for psychology, and Crudup delivers an intense portrait of a man cracking up by the loss of his ideals as much as his life's love--climaxing in a terrific restaurant outburst to his needy, congratulatory family. Unreleased theatrically in the UK, this outstanding film has award-quality performances from Crudup and Connelly, both doing their best screen work to date. On the DVD: The picture is presented in 1.85.1 anamorphic widescreen, with Dolby Digital sound. You get the usual trailer, filmographies and puff piece featurette, but also three superb extras: a commentary from Gordon that passionately and intelligently addresses the thematic material and production circumstances of the film; a package of deleted scenes that goes well beyond the usual irrelevant snippets--everything here offers additional insights into the plot and character; tracks from the composers Tomandandy which play over the menus--a rare feature that's liable to become more common. --Kim Newman

• Queen Of Hearts / Look Up And Laugh | DVD | (24/01/2011) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

A riotous musical comedy made at the absolute height of Fields' popularity Queen Of Hearts once again pairs Fields with leading man John Loder (Sing As We Go Love Life and Laughter). The film was directed by Monty Banks - who would later go on to be Gracie Fields' second husband - and its story apes Fields' own path from working-class girl to megastar. A feel-good gem. Look Up And Laugh: In what is widely regarded as her finest performance Gracie Fields plays Gracie Pearson - a singer-comedienne who is determined to save her local market from being demolished to make way for a department store. As time runs out Gracie rallies the stall-keepers together through a series of ever-more-hilarious schemes to save their livelihoods. Like Sing As You Go Look Up And Laugh was written by renowned novelist J. B. Priestley and directed by Basil Dean.

Packed with gags songs and showstopping set-pieces Look Up And Laugh is Gracie Fields at her very best.
