• Zane Grey - Box Set 2 | DVD | (22/10/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £24.99

  Zane Grey (1872-1939) was one of the most popular authors of western fiction ever, and 60 years after his death many of his 78 books, such as Riders of the Purple Sage, are still in print. In the silent era Hollywood filmed many of his stories with stars such as Tom Mix and Jack Holt. Grey knew the west well, particularly the deserts of Arizona and Utah, and demanded accurate locations for the films. Later, however, many of these films were remade, sometimes two or three times, without Grey's involvement, and the relation between novels and films grew much looser. The films are quintessential B-moveis: black and white, just over an hour, featuring minor stars and formulaic plots with some music and comedy thrown in. Committed fans of the western genre will not be disappointed, and others will derive pleasure from the delightful Jane Greer in Sunset Pass and Tim Holt, son of Jack, in the other three films. The location shooting, mostly in the Lone Pine area of California, has an authentic feel. Titles are: Under the Tonto Rim (1947); Thunder Mountain (1947); Sunset Pass (1946); Wild Horse Mesa(1947). On the DVD: This box set contains two DVDs, each of which include two movies deriving from Zane Grey novels. Print quality and sound is generally acceptable, though Under the Tonto Rim has poor definition and is a bit scratchy. Aspect ratio is 14:9. The DVDs contain no extras of any kind. --Ed Buscombe

• John Adams - A Portrait And Concert Of American Music | DVD | (18/10/2002) from £19.69   |  Saving you £1.56 (8.46%)   |  RRP £19.99

  In a format that ought to be widely emulated, this Composers of Our Time feature comprises a portrait of American composer John Adams, followed by a concert that places his music in a suitable context. Adams has come a long way from the Harvard graduate who travelled to San Francisco in the early 1970s, taking a number of menial jobs while he discovered his own idiom. Those years are vividly recalled by the composer, and the seven-part documentary also features extracts from three of his stageworks, all of which are controversial but relevant in their choice of topics and handling of issues. David Jeffcock's direction makes the most of some stunning West Coast scenery, and the only real drawback here is the plodding, clichéd narration. The concert portion was filmed live at the Chatelet in Paris, and features the Ensemble Intercontemporain and Jonathan Nott, currently their Music Director and a conductor with a future. André Trouttet is the scintillating soloist in Adams' stylish if vacuous clarinet concerto Gnarly Buttons, while the musically more substantial Chamber Symphony is given virtuoso treatment, as are Steve Reich's classic Eight Lines and arrangements of two Player Piano Studies by Conlon Nancarrow. On the DVD: Composers of Our Time: John Adams comes with options of PCM Stereo, Dolby Digital 5.0 or DTS 5.0, while the 16:9 picture format captures Bob Coles' perceptive direction in full. Subtitles are in English, French, German and Spanish, and there are three related Arthaus trailers. It all adds up to a stimulating and informative package. --Richard Whitehouse
