Seven Brides For Seven Brothers (1954): When rugged frontiersman Adam sweeps local beauty Milly off her feet the whole town is turned upside-down. But no one's more shocked than Milly who discovers that she's now expected to cook and clean not only for Adam but for his six rowdy brothers too!

• Mark Morris Dance Group - Mark Morris - The Hard Nut | DVD | (20/10/2008) from £20.23   |  Saving you £-5.24 (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Ballet in two acts from the Th''atre Royal de la Monnaie Brussels. Based on Nutcracker and Mouse King by E.T.A. Hoffmann. For his witty and audacious Nutcracker award-winning choreographer Mark Morris uses Tchaikovsky''s original score but his story is closer to E.T.A. Hoffmann''s more grisly original Nutcracker and Mouse King than the cosier traditional versions of the ballet. It was filmed at the Th''''tre Royal de la Monnaie Brussels in 1992 and American cartoonist Charles Burns'' pop art set provides the backdrop. As in Hoffmann''s story there is a party at the Stahlbaum''s but this one is set in 60s America with vicious sibling rivalry a stifling marriage and clashing agendas of the campest bunch of guests in town. The Dance of the Snowflakes is a highlight and a Morris masterpiece with men and women in tutus spraying handfuls of snow and sweeping up on pointes. The national dances are funny and inventive with Morris as an Arabic woman in flowing robes. This is Morris at his most entertaining. The Symphony Orchestra and Chorus of the Th''''tre Royal de la Monnaie is conducted by the theatre''s Musical Director Sylvain Cambreling.

• Maybe Tomorrow | DVD | (21/07/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £2.99

• The Work Of Director Michel Gondry | DVD | (01/12/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £17.99

  The Work of Director Michel Gondry invites the lucky viewer into a wonderland of childlike imagination. Before the Versailles-born Gondry turned his creative ingenuity to feature films (beginning with the underrated Human Nature and the 2004 Jim Carrey comedy Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), these 27 music videos and assorted "stories and things" formed a legacy of supreme cleverness, suggesting a creative lineage from the pioneering film magic of Georges Méliès to the groundbreaking experimental films of Norman McLaren. It's perfectly fitting that the accompanying 75-minute documentary is titled "I've Been 12 Forever," because Gondry (b.1964) never lost the sense of wonder and inventiveness that children display when their minds are allowed to flourish in a creative environment. No wonder he's best known for his dazzling collaborations with Icelandic pop star Björk, resulting in music videos (seven included here) that redefined the magical potential of the medium. Each, in its own way, is a masterpiece of the fantastic. What's also remarkable about Gondry's work is its technical progression, from the homemade crudeness of his earliest videos for the French band Oui Oui, to the technical wizardry of Kylie Minogue's "Come Into My World", in which the Australian pop star is seamlessly multiplied as she strolls around a busy Parisian intersection; like many of Gondry's videos, it's a stunning "how-did-they-do-that?" work of art, reminiscent of Zbigniew Rybcynski's prize-winning 1982 short "Tango". From the hilarious dreamworld of the Foo Fighters' most popular video "Everlong" to the painstaking pixilation of Gondry's videos for the White Stripes (one made entirely of animated Lego blocks), this DVD is packed with Gondry's tireless pursuit of perfection; he'll do whatever's necessary, no matter how simple or complex, to achieve perfect harmony between song, artist, and visual concept. All the while, he's drawing from a seemingly endless well of inspiration, as evident in the delightful 52-page booklet of stories, drawings, photos, and interviews that chronicle the eternal sunshine of a brilliant mind. --Jeff Shannon

• Kate Rusby - Live From Leeds | DVD | (24/11/2003) from £17.53   |  Saving you £-4.54 (-34.90%)   |  RRP £12.99

  South Yorkshire folk singer-songwriter Kate Rusby celebrates a decade-plus as a recording artist and performer with this live concert, mostly adapted from her popular studio albums and replete with her typically evocative, emotional immediacy singing ancient ballads, sea shanties, and lullabies. Highlights include the infectious waltz, "Polly," the sprightly, hopeful "I Courted a Sailor," and Rusby's crystalline vocal on "The White Cockade." Backed by her outstanding, all-acoustic band, Rusby's celebrated talent for making an old sound feel new again drives the delicate plaint "Who Will Sing Me Lullabies," the pop-like "The Cobbler's Daughter," and the sad "Withered and Died," which sounds very much like the passage of heartbreaking events into memory. Newcomers to Rusby may wonder if those songs in her repertoire having to do with dragons, knights, and fair maidens (such as this set's "Sir Eglamore") are terribly precious, but they actually prove as personally expressive as anything else she does. --Tom Keogh

• Luciano Pavarotti - Legends in Concert | DVD | (28/03/2005) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £11.99

  On 12 October 1935 in Modena Italy Luciano Pavarotti a legend in the making was born. The son of a baker and amateur tenor singing was clearly in his blood but it was football that first brought him into the limelight when he showed considerable talent playing for his local club. But soccer was to be a lasting passion rather than a direction in life and a passion he still follows with undimmed enthusiasm.His baptism into the world of music came about when performing with his father in the Modena Chorus winning first prize in an international competition. This produced a spark bright enough to ignite a flame in his heart that was and still is filling every auditorium in which he appears.This exclusive DVD gives an opportunity to see and listen to a compilation from his performance in Barcelona singing lesser known arias and sonnets to a spellbound audience.

• David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust The Motion Picture | DVD | (24/03/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  The quintessential moment in glam-rock history 'Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars' is David Bowie at his best. This film of the 1973 concert (released 10 years later) documents the hallucinogenic collage of kitsch Warhol/Pop irony and flamboyant excess that was the Bowie phenomenon: his trademark synthetic androgyny is a musical symbiosis of feminine passion and masculine dominance that define his funky gender-bending art and ultimately the glam-rock genre as a whole.

• Johnny Winter | DVD | (03/12/2018) from £14.29   |  Saving you £-0.30 (N/A%)   |  RRP £13.99

  Blues artist Johnny Winter is a familiar name to anybody that appreciates slash-and-burn guitar and Winter aficionados seem to be equally split between the musician's 1970s-era blues-n-roots-rock material on Blue Sky Records and his later house-rockin' recordings for the Alligator and Point Blank labels during the 1980s and '90s. Fans of the former will rejoice when our friends at Music Video Distributors release Winter's Live Through The '70s DVD. Live Through The '70s collects official archival video of a number of classic Winter performances from disparate sources such as a 1970 appearance on Danish TV and a Royal Albert Hall performance in London that same year. The 111-minute DVD also includes a 1973 broadcast of Winter from Don Kirshner's Rock Concert; a 1974 Winter performance from the Blues Summit in Chicago; a 1974 performance at Musikladen in Bremen Germany; and a 1979 appearance on Rockpalast in Germany. Among the songs captured on tape are Winter faves like Johnny B. Goode Rock & Roll Hootchie Koo and Mean Town Blues. Live Through The '70s deserves a place next to the television for any Johnny Winter fan or even for those that appreciate lively and electric blues-rock guitar.
