  Abbott & Costello Classic Comedies three-disc collector's set consists of oddments from the latter days of their career that have fallen into public domain; which means you don't get their best routines or classiest productions, and indeed find the double act doing fairly tired schtick as Costello is chubbily chicken-hearted and Abbott grumpily money-grubbing. Africa Screams is a 1949 safari parody, with Costello running away yelping from sundry alligators, gorillas (including a Kong-sized giant), cannibals ("Chief have sweet tooth for little fat man") and lions amid backlot jungles as Abbott competes with stock villains for a fortune in diamonds. Jack and the Beanstalk, from 1952, finds the duo attempting to sell themselves as children's entertainers in a Wizard of Oz-influenced fairytale book-ended by sepia modern-day segments. The magical story unfolds in wonderfully gruesome cheap colour with some of the worst musical numbers ever committed to film ("he's perpendicular-la-la") as Jack the Clod (Costello) and Mr Dinkelpuss the Butcher (Abbott) climb the beanstalk and plod around the Giant's lair until the story runs out. Possibly the most interesting item is the third disc, which offers an episode of the Colgate Comedy Hour (aka The Abbott and Costello Show) from the 1950s. It shows the pair doing live routines closer to their original vaudeville act than their film roles (including an amazingly cruel bit in which Abbott slaps Costello every time he says the word "tin"). A loose plot about Latin American intrigue, with Lou hired to stand in for an assassination target "El Presidente", makes room for speciality guest stars ranging from child xylophonist Baby Mistin to four starlets (including Jane Russell and Rhonda Fleming) harmonising on a "Happy Easter" medley. Best of all, and now funnier than the comedy, are original hard-sell ads for household products like "Ajax, the foaming action cleanser" and "Halo, the shampoo that glorifies your hair". --Kim Newman

  So you think you're funny do you? Well unfortunately so do these guys... For some unknown reason the Diamond and Hutz Talent Agency is sending deluded stand-up comics to venues all over New Jersey: bar-mitzvahs baby showers corporate team building days and well farms. Fortunately for us journalists from one of the nation's leading papers were assigned to document the Diamond and Hutz world of stand-up comedy in its natural habitat... Whether or not you're a fan of stand-up you'll love this brainchild of Glenn Rockowitz. Much like 'This Is Spinal Tap' and 'Best In Show' 'Hacks' is an hysterical mockumentary with killer performances that leave you wondering just how far from the truth this may actually be!

• The Best Of Marilyn Collection - Gentlemen Prefer Blondes/Seven Year Itch/How To Marry A Millionaire | DVD | (14/05/2007) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £24.99

  How To Marry A Millionaire: Three screen goddesses - Betty Grable Lauren Bacall and Marilyn Monroe - star as golddigging models blessed with fabulous looks but limited brain power. The three blondes pool their resources and conspire to nab millionaire husbands renting an expensive penthouse to lure in their likely prey. But with Rory Calhoun Cameron Mitchell David Wayne Fred Clark Alex D'Arcy and William Powell playing the desired millionaires the ladies are pushed to the end of their wits as they try to decide whom to wed.... 'How To Marry A Millionaire' was the first movie to be filmed in CinemaScope but 'The Robe' (1953 directed by Henry Koster) beat it to the cinemas. The Seven Year Itch: Marilyn Monroe proves that no man can resist her - especially a married man - in this sexy romp directed by Billy Wilder and heralded as one of the quintessential comedies of all time! When a seductive starlet (Monroe) moves in upstairs a married man (Tom Ewell) has his fidelity put to the test. Keeping his marriage vows in the face of her flirtations proves hilariously tough when challenged by the notorious ""Seven Year Itch."" Gentlemen Prefer Blondes: Lorelei Lee (Marilyn Monroe) and her friend Dorothy Shaw (Jane Russell) are a pair of showgirls Dorothy the sassy one looking for true love Lorelei the blonde hoping to marry a millionaire with her sights set on Gus Esmond a wealthy nerd stuck under his father's thumb. When Lorelei and Dorothy take a transatlantic cruise to Paris an undercover detective follows to find out if Lorelei is really a gold-digging schemer. Unfortunately the irrepressible Lorelei is a born flirt and soon finds herself in a compromising position with Sir Francis Beekman (Charles Coburn) owner of a diamond mine. The girls have to use all their wits to get out of trouble and still find love and marriage. Thanks to the talents of the luminous stars and director Howard Hawks plus stunning technicolor cinematography 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' emerges as one of the most charming entertaining musicals of the 1950s. Marilyn Monroe never more luminous sings her legendary musical number ""Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend"" (which later inspired Madonna's 'Material Girl' video). 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' is based on the hit Broadway musical which was adapted from the book by Anita Loos.
