Keyword View: cameo PR Cheech & Chong's: Animated Movie on DVD Apr 23  The infamous stoner duo Cheech and Chong are back and animated in a new feature-length film.

PR A League of Their Own on 20th Anniversary Blu-ray Oct 20  This classic is based on the true story of the pioneering women who blazed the trail, both on the field and off, for generations of athletes to follow. The delightful sports tale, which taught America 'there's no crying in baseball,' was directed by Penny Marshall and stars Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Lori Petty, Rosie O'Donnell and Madonna. Sony Picture Home Entertainment Read More... DVD Review THE 39 STEPS (BLU-RAY)  Alfred Hitchcock was already a successful director when he adapted John Buchan's mystery thriller The Thirty-Nine Step, but this picture is where we see many of the staples of his later career come to fruition and gel in a way that few directors before or since have managed to accomplish. Criterion does this seminal movie proud in a loaded special edition that features a lovely and clean high-definition transfer of very difficult source material. Read More... PR That's My Boy on Blu-ray & DVD with UltraViolet Oct 16  While still in his teens, Donny (Adam Sandler) fathered a son, Todd (Andy Samberg), and raised him as a single parent until Todd's 18th birthday. Now, after not seeing each other for years, Todd's world comes crashing down on the eve of his wedding when an uninvited Donny suddenly shows up. Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Read More... Article Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp - It Sure Is.  There was a simpler time. There was a time gone by. Somewhere before the summer of 2008, most of us had blissfully only heard the name of Palin in the context of Michael of Monty Python fame. Now you can try as you might and you cannot avoid the juggernaut media domination that is Palin-nation. Her, him, them - all on TV. Help. Read More... PR Mary Pickford: Muse of the Movies on DVD Jun 19  In this documentary, through restored vintage audio recordings, Pickford narrates her own story along with actor Michael York. Classic film clips, rare home movies, and cameo interviews with Adolph Zukor (founder of Paramount Studios), famed aviator Amelia Earhart, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Lillian Gish, Buddy Rogers (Pickford's last husband), as well as the only interview ever given by Pickford's daughter, Roxanne Rogers Monroe, give the viewer an in-depth look into the early world of the American cinema.

PR Mac & Devin Go to High School on DVD & Blu-ray Jul 3  Laugh-out-loud comedy, Mac & Devin Go to High School, starring The Doggfather of Hip-Hop and the film's Executive Producer, Snoop Dogg, and 2011 Grammy-nominated rapper of the platinum hit 'Black And Yellow,' Wiz Khalifa. Directed by Dylan Brown - and following the release of the chart-topping soundtrack of the same name Read More... PR Web Therapy - The Complete First Season on DVD Jun 19  Fiona Wallice (Lisa Kudrow) is a therapist with little patience for her patients. Tired of hearing about people's problems for fifty long minutes, she devises an innovative new treatment -- the three-minute therapeutic video chat. In her estimation, the traditional version of therapy gives people too much leeway to talk about irrelevant things. By dramatically shortening session time, she hopes to get results more quickly. Read More... PR BBC's Original Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on Blu-ray Apr 24  This 1979 BBC miniseries garnered universal critical acclaim for its stellar ensemble cast, literate writing and intricate plots. The Blu-ray debut coincides with the home video release of the recent film adaptation starring Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight), which received Oscar(R) nominations for best screenplay and best actor. This Blu-ray 2-disc set includes six episodes, along with an exclusive 29-min. interview with director John Irvin, 27-min. interview with John le Carre, deleted scenes, subtitles, and more. Read More... PR The Sun Came Out: 7 Worlds Collide Again on DVD & Digital Download Apr 10  Watch as 20 musicians travel to New Zealand and create 10 songs in 3 weeks, a behind-the-scenes experience of the life time!

Read More... DVD Review TO CATCH A THIEF (BLU-RAY)  The latest in the recent wave of Alfred Hitchcock films to hit Blu-ray, this one simply has to be seen for the pairing of Cary Grant and Grace Kelly alone. Read More... PR Dark Shadows: The Complete Original Series on 131 Discs May 8  The vampire romance is one of today's hottest genres in movies, television and novels, from the Twilight and True Blood to The Vampire Diaries, Underworld and Interview With the Vampire, but it all started with Dark Shadows, the ABC daytime series that brought tormented hero Barnabas Collins into the homes of devoted fans every weekday for five years. Now, in an unprecedented event, the entire series - 1,225 episodes on 131 discs - will be released in a single deluxe set. On May 8, 2012, MPI will release Dark Shadows: The Complete Original Series in a custom coffin shaped box with bonus, in-depth interviews and other video extras, a commemorative booklet and more. The SRP for this collector's set is $599.98. Read More... DVD Review ANATOMY OF A MURDER  Preminger's Anatomy of a Murder is as entertaining as it is thoughtful about the limits of the law in grasping human nature. It feels fresh and mature even fifty years later, and stands as one of the best courtroom dramas in film history. Read More... PR Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on DVD Oct 25  Oscar winner Alec Guinness delivers the performance of a lifetime in his BAFTA-winning role as George Smiley, a retired spymaster recruited to find a mole in the British intelligence service. Hailed as one of the finest dramas ever made for television, this 1979 BBC miniseries garnered universal critical acclaim for its stellar ensemble cast, literate writing and intricate plots. This repackaged and discounted DVD 3-disc set includes six episodes, along with a 28-min. interview with John le Carre, cast filmographies, production notes, and more... Read More... DVD Review EXORCISMUS  For me exorcism flicks fall pretty low down on my list of preferred horror genre storylines. The premise has little room for variation, and is predestined to include certain obligatory elements. That's what we get in Exorcismus, though director Manuel Carballo tries his best to cover the material from a slightly different angle. But in the end it's another possession title. Read More... PR Buster Keaton - Short Films Collection: 1920 - 1923 on DVD & Blu-ray June 14  This marks the first time that these 19 classic short comedies, produced between 1920 and 1923, will be available in the Blu-ray format, as well as the first time that all of these films will be released in the US in a single package. These celebrated comedies come to Blu-ray and DVD in a splendid three-disc ultimate edition, with all 19 shorts remastered in HD from archival elements. Read More... DVD Review HEARTLESS  A weird, engaging, criminally underseen import, this is a great vehicle for Jim Sturgess. There are plenty of shocking twists and turns that take this story to some extremely dark places. Read More... DVD Review THE BLACK PIRATE (BLU-RAY)  A solid sea yarn from the silent era gets regal treatment from Kino on Blu-Ray, featuring an impressive transfer of the original two-strip Technicolor print and yet another film geek history lesson commentary from Rudy Behlmer.
