Into the circus of Bollywood is trust an unsuspecting Pat Stomare (Pat Cusick) an out-of-luck American B-movie star. This is the work of Subramaniam (Om Puri) Subra for short-a producer who concocts the first pairing of an American hero with the legendary Manu Kapoor (Navin Nishol) an ageing Indian star.

Bollywood Calling is an honest no holds-barred look at the world of Indian film-making as we follow Pat through his evolution from uncertain actor to competent Bollywood hero. Through his re Manu Subra and the beautiful Kajal we take this journey with Pat and experience with him the color the confusion and the passion of Bollywood all from an outsider-turned-insider's point of view.

• Tinto Brass - The Key / Cheeky / All Ladies Do It (Subtitled | DVD | (24/03/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £24.99

  With its stars bottom looming large on the cover, erotic adventure All Ladies Do It is clearly the work of Italian director Tinto Brass. It is another tale of a young woman and her quest to fulfil her sexual desires, in this case Claudia Kolls Diane, who embarks on a series of casual affairs much to the interest of husband Paul who, assuming that her tales are merely the product of an active imagination, finds himself aroused by their content. In the meantime, Diane is increasing her circle of lovers before a trip to Venice threatens to bring her dual life crashing down. The plot is frankly secondary to Brass appreciation of the female form (absolutely no opportunity is missed to focus on Kolls behind) and it all becomes a little ludicrous. The original Italian title ("Cosi fan tutte") is derived from Mozarts comic opera but, unlike the operas convoluted sexual politics, here there is only a rather confused attempt at expressing a quasi-feminist message about female independence. All Ladies Do It is best viewed as a piece of glossy titillation and nothing more. On the DVD: Brass certainly knows how to make the best of a location and there are some exceptionally beautiful shots of Venice to be found among the carnal adventures. The extras include a filmography and photo gallery as well as a low quality but telling interview with the director, during which he expounds on a rather strange theory regarding womens bottoms and the fact that, unlike their faces, they cannot lie. --Phil Udell
