• Lost Highway | DVD | (06/02/2006) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Lost Highway has been described by its director as a 21st century film noir a graphic investigation into parallel identity crises a world where time is dangerously out of control and finally a terrifying ride down the lost highway. With typically Lynchian dreamlike quality Lost Highway expands the horizons of the medium taking its audience on a journey through the unknown and the unknowable. It is not only about the human psyche it seems to take place inside it. Set in a city of Lynch's imagination Lost Highway focuses on two separate but intersecting stories. One about musician Fred Madison (Bill Pullman) tortured by the notion that his wife Renee (Patricia Arquette) is having an affair who suddenly finds himself accused of her murder. The other concerns a young mechanic (Balthazar Getty) drawn into a web of deceit by a temptress who is cheating on her gangster boyfriend (Robert Loggia). The tales are connected by a mind-blowing turn of events that calls into question the protagonists' very identities. It all makes for a classic Lynchian nightmare.

• Riders To The Sea | DVD | (22/09/2008) from £13.48   |  Saving you £-3.49 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  They are all gone now and there is nothing more the sea can do to me Riders to the Sea is Vaughan Williams' most successful operatic achievement. It is short but the music is written on a grand scale and it is emotionally powerful. He based his opera on J.M. Synge's great tragic one-act play about Aran fisherfolk. The Irish dramatist spent several summers on the stormy West Coast of Ireland and the primitive life of the islanders whose existence depended almost entirely on the sea provided him with the material for his play. Vaughan Williams was inspired by the theme of human endurance in the face of the natural elements and his opera is absolutely faithful to Synge's original play almost word for word. The tautly structured music is integrated perfectly with Synge's dialogue and at the end it opens out into a great dignified lament sometimes compared to the lament from Dido and Aeneas. This film made in the studio in 1988 by the Irish broadcaster Radio Telefis ''‰ireann is unique because it is the only audio-visual representation of any of Vaughan Williams' operatic and stage works currently available. The opera stars Sarah Walker in the central role of the mother Maurya who has already lost six men in her family to the sea and fears for the safety of her two remaining sons. Her daughters Cathleen and Nora are played by Yvonne Brennan and Kathleen Tynan and her son Bartley is sung by Hugh Mackey. Martin Murphy portrays J.M. Synge. The Radio Telefis ''‰ireann Chamber Choir and Concert Orchestra is conducted by Bryden Thomson. It is produced and directed by Louis Lentin. A new production of Riders to the Sea is being staged at English National Opera this November to mark the 50th anniversary of Vaughan Williams' death.
