The Coastal Command Flying Boats at War

The Coastal Command Flying Boats at War Review



While air battles raged over the European continent, a different kind of war was fought over the Atlantic Ocean and North Sea by the aircraft of Britain's Coastal Command.

Giant Sunderland and Catalina flying boats conducted constant patrols against enemy surface raiders, submarines and aircraft.

Across the globe in the Pacific, U.S. Navy Catalinas took on another role. Painted black, the planes flew nighttime bomb raids against Japanese shipping, harbors and shore installations. These Black Cats proved an effective, if unlikely, weapon.

Featured on this DVD is The Coastal Command, a British documentary with narrative flair produced in 1942. The film presents an account of the Shorts Sunderland and PBY Catalina flying boats. The film includes an attack on a major enemy ship by Hudson and Halifax bombers based in Iceland. Later, the film depicts a routine sea patrol, in which a Sunderland flying boat flies over a convoy and bombs a German U-boat. The movie was made under the supervision of writer/producer Ian Dalrymple, with the full cooperation of the Royal Air Force and the Royal Navy. The participants of the movie were active RAF officers, NCOs and aircrew, and RN officers, and included pilot Roger Hunter and Flight Sergeant Charles Norman Lewis; both were later killed in World War II. Coastal Command is also notable for its famous score by Ralph Vaughan Williams. Long out of release, the film is presented here on DVD for the first time.

Also included is The Story of the Black Cats, a U.S. Navy film about America s top secret weapon: the Catalina raiders. The Navy's long range flying boats, "Cats," play the lead in this authentic film combat report from the South Pacific. From the same harbors where Pan Am Clipper flying boats flew passengers on their way from San Francisco to Tokyo, the Navy's Catalinas embark on missions of death and destruction.

Boogie Nights

Boogie Nights Review



Even if the notorious 1970s porn-filmmaking milieu doesn'texactly turn you on, don't let it turn you off to this movie's extraordinary virtues, either. Boogie Nights is one of the key movies of the 1990s, and among the most ambitious and exuberantly alive American movies in years. It's also the breakthrough for an amazing new director, whose dazzling kaleidoscopic style here recalls the Robert Altman of Nashville and the Martin Scorsese of GoodFellas. Although loosely based on the sleazy life and times of real-life porn legend John Holmes, at heart it's a classic Hollywood rise-and-fall fable: a naive, good-looking young busboy is discovered in a San Fernando Valley disco by a famous motion picture producer, becomes a hotshot movie star, lives the high life, and then loses everything when he gets too big for his britches, succumbs to insobriety, and is left behind by new times and new technology. Of course, it ain't exactly A Star Is Born or Singin' in the Rain. Writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson (in only his second feature!) puts his own affectionately sardonic twist on the old showbiz biopic formula: the ambitious upstart changes his name and achieves stardom in porno films as "Dirk Diggler." Instead of drinking to excess, he snorts cocaine (the classic drug of '70s hedonism); and it's the coming of home video (rather than talkies) that helps to dash his big-screen dreams. As for the britches ... well, the controversial "money shot" explains everything. And the cast is one of the great ensembles of the '90s, including Oscar nominees Burt Reynolds and Julianne Moore, Mark Wahlberg (who really can act--from the waist up, too!), Heather Graham (as Rollergirl), William H. Macy, John C. Reilly, and Ricky Jay. --Jim Emerson

Evolutionary anthropologist, Lauren Holmes, designed Leadering to bypass cultural interferences to merge us back into nature's creative evolutionary machinery. By extending our capabilities with those of nature and surrounding systems, we can achieve beyond our potential to break through new frontiers for humanity. Even non-creatives and change-phobics can become innovators and world-changers.
Lauren predicts that ''the functionality of the human race will upgrade significantly when we prevent our cultures from yanking our children out of their integration into nature's creative evolutionary flow into which we are all born. The upgrade will begin when adults use this Leadering video program to re-integrate themselves into the evolutionary flow and are transformed by nature's system maximizing mechanisms. The same machinery that keeps our bodies maximized can maximize our existence if we know how to use it.''

Remember Pearl Harbor - Prelude to Pearl Harbor (Vol. 3)

Remember Pearl Harbor - Prelude to Pearl Harbor (Vol. 3) Review



This documentary about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor is not so much about the events on the morning of December 7, 1941, as it is about the long series of events that brought America and Japan to open conflict. The rise of Japan as both industrial and naval power is contrasted with what the documentary openly declares to have been racist attitudes toward Asian nations exhibited by many Americans of the day. The outbreak of hostilities in Europe, the "America First" movement of isolationists, and the Roosevelt administration's support of Britain's struggle against Nazi aggression is discussed. Japan's naval genius, Admiral Yamamoto, is profiled, and Japanese plans to attack an unprepared base at Pearl Harbor are described. The attack itself is portrayed through use of archival footage. This film does an adequate job of presenting Pearl Harbor in a historical context, but it is somewhat upstaged by a separate documentary included in this package. The great director John Ford produced documentaries for the U.S. government during World War II, and his classic film December 7, 1941, which won the Oscar® for Best Documentary in 1943, appears on a second disc. Ford mixed footage of the actual attack with shots of model ships to portray the attack, and what it may lack in special-effects wizardry it more than makes up for in its immediacy and passion. Two other Ford documentaries, The Battle of Midway and an hour-long film about the aircraft carrier USS Yorktown, are also provided, and while the quality of the picture suffers at times (the transfer appears to have been made from a worn print), the documentaries themselves are well worth seeing. --Robert J. McNamara

Donnie Darko (Widescreen Edition)

Donnie Darko (Widescreen Edition) Review



In the tradition of Urban Legends and Final Destination, Donnie Darko is an edgy, psychological thriller about a suburban teen coming face-to-face wit his dark destiny. Jake Gyllenhaal leads a star-filled cast (including Drew Barrymore, Noah Wyle, Jena Malone, Patrick Swayze and Mary McDonnell) as a delusional high-school student visited by a demonic rabbit with eerie visions of the past - and deadly predictions for the future. This "excitingly original" (Entertainment Weekly) nail-biter will keep you on the edge of your seat until the mind-bending climax.

Monty Python's The Meaning Of Life (Special Edition) [VHS]

Monty Python's The Meaning Of Life (Special Edition) [VHS] Review



Perhaps only the collective brilliant minds of the Monty Python film and television troupe are up to the task of tackling a subject as weighty as the Meaning of Life. Sure, Kierkegaard, Wittgenstein, and their ilk have tried their hands at this puzzler, but only Python has attempted to do so within the commercial motion picture medium. Happily for us all, Monty Python's the Meaning of Life truly explains everything one conceivably needs to know about the perplexities of human existence, from the mysteries of Catholic doctrine to the miracle of reproduction to why one should avoid the salmon mousse to the critical importance of the machine that goes ping! Using fish as a linking device (and what marvelous links those aquatic creatures make), The Meaning of Life is presented as a series of sketches: a musical production number about why seed is sacred; a look at dining in the afterlife; the quest for a missing fish (there they are again); a visit from Mr. Death; the cautionary tale of Mr. Creosote and his rather gluttonous appetite; an unflinching examination of the harsh realities of organ donation, and so on. Sadly, this was the last original Python film, but it's a beaut. You'll laugh. You'll cry (probably because you're laughing so hard). You may even learn something about the Meaning of Life. Or at least about how fish fit into the grand scheme of things. --Jim Emerson
