• The Pope Of Greenwich Village | DVD | (06/05/2002) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £12.99

  Set among the Italian-American community of Manhattan and adapted by Vincent Patrick from his own novel, 1984's The Pope of Greenwich Village just about gets by on its charm. It stars Mickey Rourke as Charlie, a small-time grafter who is on the point of making his big move and breakaway. Unfortunately, the pull of family ties means that he's hampered by his cousin Paulie (Eric Roberts), an ambitious and excitable idiot who manages to cock up absolutely everything he turns his hand to, bringing down Charlie with him every time. After he gets the pair of them sacked from a restaurant, Paulie helps set up a safecracking deal with older hand Kenneth MacMillan. Trouble is, they’re robbing the local mafia boss. Rourke and Roberts' relationship is modelled closely on that of Harvey Keitel and Robert DeNiro in Scorcese's Mean Streets, only without quite the same harrowing consequences. This being the 1980s there's much De Niro-esque methodology, which generally consists of repeating lines at least twice ("Fix your tie! Fix your tie!"). The element of improv sees the film veer off course occasionally, while Darryl Hannah is her usual oddly semi-detached self in the role of Rourke's girlfriend. However, it's Roberts' performance as the exasperating and energetic Paulie which carries the film, with solid support from numerous Goodfellas and Sopranos regulars. On the DVD: The Pope of Greenwich Village arrives on disc in a decent enough but hardly pristine print. The sole extra is the original trailer, which means the only real benefit of acquiring this on DVD is storage convenience. --David Stubbs

• Humperkinck: Hansel and Gretel | DVD | (15/09/2008) from £13.48   |  Saving you £-1.49 (N/A%)   |  RRP £11.99

  Christine Sch''fer Alice Coote and Vladimir Jurowski triumph in Humperdinck's first and most successful opera - filmed live at the Metropolitan Opera in Hi-Definition. This irresistibly delicious new English-language production of Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel is the first 'Metropolitan Opera : Live in High-Definition series' release following EMI Classic's recent collaboration with the Met. The Brothers Grimm fairy tale a timeless children's favourite features a sophisticated score and this intriguing new staging will appeal to audiences of all ages. Alice Coote and Christine Sch''fer are charming as Hansel and Gretel. The role of the Witch written for a mezzo-soprano is sometimes sung by a tenor - as is the case in this production - with Philip Langridge in the role. Vladimir Jurowski one of the world's most sought-after conductors leads Germany's dearest opera with a sensitive account of Humperdinck's enchanting score. Hansel and Gretel is considered by many as the salvation of German opera bringing relief from the murky Wagnerian depths of Teutonic myth and initiating a return to the shimmering world of the fairy tale. In 1923 Hansel and Gretel became the first complete opera to be broadcast on radio from Covent Garden ; Eight years later it was the first to be broadcast from the New York Met. It is significant therefore that this is one of the eight operas chosen to be in this season's Met HD transmissions. Beautifully staged by Richard Jones and moodily designed by John Macfarlane this dark and eccentric production is tough and dark sparse and savage an exploration of deprivation cruelty and gluttony in a contemporary always-always-land.
