Classic Literature: Thomas Hardy

Classic Literature: Thomas Hardy

Wild heaths, picturesque villages and dramatic coastlines are the backdrop for this intriguing tale celebrating the life and work of the novelist and poet Thomas Hardy. From the cosy thatched cottage of his childhood to the bustling streets of London, this program will take you on a journey of discovery, and give you the opportunity to tread in the footsteps of the great man himself, revealing how an architect’s apprentice rose to dizzying heights as an author of world renown.

His novels Far from the Madding Crowd, The Return of the Native and The Mayor of Casterbridge, among many others, have delighted and enthralled readers for well over a century, with their enchanting images of rural England as the backdrop for atmospheric tales of romance and tragedy. Nevertheless, Thomas Hardy generated his fair share of controversy in his day, as the harsh reality of the class system was portrayed in his later novels Tess of the D’Urbevilles and Jude the Obscure, proving too much for Victorian readers; Hardy made his mark as a man well ahead of his time. By delving deep into the writer’s past, see the real Thomas Hardy, the troubles that inspired his darkest tragedies, the difficulties that marked his first marriage and the love that stirred him to write his most beautiful poetry. This is a tale which will captivate devoted readers and newcomers alike, as it uncovers the extraordinary history of one of our most beloved writers.

Britain boasts a rich heritage of great writers whose works have earned global fame and continue to remain firm favorites for readers worldwide. This wonderful collection of programs explores the lives and times of these authors, to find out what inspired them to bring us such classic works. This collection will provide fresh insights into the motivation and character of your favorite writer, and will let you experience a new way of looking at their work.

Mission Impossible – Ultimate Missions Collection (Mission Impossible / Mission Impossible II / Mission Impossible III) [Blu-ray]

Mission Impossible – Ultimate Missions Collection (Mission Impossible / Mission Impossible II / Mission Impossible III) [Blu-ray]

No Description Available.
Genre: Feature Film-Action/Adventure
Rating: PG13
Release Date: 30-OCT-2006
Media Type: Blu-RayMission Impossible
A flashy, splashy summer-movie blockbuster that’s fun and exciting without being mindless? That’s the impossible mission accomplished by director Brian De Palma, star-coproducer Tom Cruise, and the crack team of Mission: Impossible. Based on the ’60s TV show and an almost impenetrably complex (but nonetheless thrilling) original story by David Koepp (Jurassic Park) and Steven Zaillian (Schindler’s List), with a screenplay by Koepp and Robert Towne (Chinatown, Shampoo), Mission: Impossible begins with veteran agent Jim Phelps (Jon Voight) and his expert crew embarking on a mission that goes horribly, horribly wrong. But nothing is what it seems. The nail-biting set piece–always a signature of director De Palma (Carrie, The Untouchables)–in which Cruise is lowered from the ceiling to retrieve information from a computer in a high-security vault–is an instant classic. But perhaps even more impressive, at least in retrospect, is a flashback sequence in which two characters attempt to reconstruct a series of events from multiple points of view. It’s pretty daring and sophisticated stuff for a big-budget spy movie, but brains were always what put the Mission: Impossible team ahead of the competition, anyway, no? –Jim Emerson

Mission Impossible II
Visually stunning, and a likely must for John Woo aficionados, the second Mission: Impossible outing from megastar Tom Cruise suffers from an inconsistent tone and tired plot devices–not only recycled from other films, but repeated throughout the film. Despite remarkable cinematography and awe-inspiring, trademark Woo photography, the movie offers a tepid story from legendary screenwriter-director Robert Towne (Chinatown, Without Limits) and a host of other writers, most uncredited.

It is, regrettably, as forgettable as the first big-budget, big box-office MI in 1996, and it’s clear (as Towne confirms) that the plot was developed around Woo- and Cruise-written action sequences. The film combines equal elements of romance and action, and is best when it features the stunning allure of Thandie Newton as Nyah, a master thief recruited by the sinewy charms of Ethan Hunt (a fit Cruise). Deeply in love after a passionate night, the couple must then combat MI nemesis (and Nyah’s former lover) Sean Ambrose (Ever After‘s Dougray Scott). Ambrose holds hostage a virus and its cure, and offers them to the highest bidder.

Woo’s famed mythic filmmaking is far from subtle, with heroic Hunt frequently slow-motion walking through fire, smoke, or other similar devices, replete with a white dove among pigeons to signal his presence. The emphasis on romance is an attempt to develop character and a more human side to superspy Hunt, but still the dreary story proves a distraction from the exciting action sequences. John Polson (as an MI team member) is an Aussie talent to keep an eye on. –N.F. Mendoza

Mission Impossible III
At the time of its release, Mission: Impossible III‘s box office was plagued by the publicity backlash against couch-jumping star Tom Cruise. It’s too bad, because this third installment of the spy thriller franchise deserved a better reception than it got. First-time feature director J.J. Abrams (bigwig TV director/producer of Lost, Alias, & Felicity) proves more than able-bodied in creating a Mission: Impossible that’s leaner and less over-stylized than John Woo’s sequel and less confusing than Brian De Palma’s original. Plot is still a throwaway here (Cruise’s Ethan Hunt rescues his kidnapped former trainee and works to steal a device that… well, we don’t really know what it does, but it’s something about mass destruction that costs 0 million), but the action sequences, particularly one where Ethan faces down a helicopter on a bridge and gets flung hard against the side of a car, are particularly impressive since Cruise, at 44, is still doing most of his own stunts and shows no hint of the weathered look that’s struck his action-star peers. (Though no Mission: Impossible stunt will ever be quite as simultaneously nail-biting and funny as the first film’s wire-dangling break-in of CIA headquarters.)

Mission: Impossible III boasts a pedigreed cast, particularly Oscar® winner Philip Seymour Hoffman (Capote) as baddie arms dealer Owen Davian. Hoffman plays Owen all teeth-clenched and cool, especially when threatening to kill Ethan in front of his lovely new wife (Michelle Monaghan) who has no idea of his spy life. But in his first action-film lead role, Hoffman’s almost too calm and collected to really make a memorable villain, especially when the rest of the cast–Ving Rhames (the only other cast member to return for all three films), Asian film star Maggie Q, and an underused Jonathan Rhys-Meyers–are a highlight as Ethan’s IMF team. Mission: Impossible is still fun popcorn spy fare, and if Cruise chooses to end the franchise here, at least he goes out on a high note. –Ellen A. Kim

Hype!

Hype!

Traces the history of grunge music, and includes live concert performances and interviews with various bands.
Genre: BIOGRAPHY
Rating: NR
Release Date: 21-DEC-2004
Media Type: DVDThis hip look at the Seattle music scene of the past decade treats the hype with bemused humor but treats the music with respect. Packed with witty interviews with band members, record execs, and Seattle music aficionados, much of the film places a welcome spotlight on the bands that didn’t become part of the national “grunge” phenomenon and scores of live clips and rare recordings show that “the Seattle Sound” didn’t begin with Nirvana or end with Soundgarden. You don’t have to be a fan to enjoy this ebullient rockumentary, and if you’re not careful, director Doug Pray’s infectious love of the music may even make you one. This video features performances by Blood Circus, Coffin Break, Crackerbash, Dead Moon, Fastbacks, Flop, Gas Huffer, The Gits, Hammerbox, Love Battery, The Melvins, The Mono Men, Mudhoney, Nirvana, The Posies, Seaweed, 7 Year Bitch, Some Velvet Sidewalk, Soundgarden, Supersuckers, Young Fresh Fellows, and Zipgun, and includes Nirvana’s first live performance of the grunge anthem “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” –Sean Axmaker

My Bloody Valentine (Special Edition) [Blu-ray]

MY BLOODY VALENTINE – Blu-Ray MovieThis bizarre little horror movie is set in the mining town of Valentine Bluffs, which may be in Canada, though the odd, indeterminate accents of the cast are perhaps meant to suggest that it is truly a regionless everyland. In a cruel twist of fate, the Bluffers have not celebrated Valentine’s Day in 20 years due to a terrible mining accident. This year is to be the first return of the Valentine’s Dance–repeatedly described by adults as the biggest event of the year–but someone (or something?) is trying to put a stop to the fun by delivering heart-shaped candy boxes with real hearts in them. The dance is called off in the name of public safety, the young (well, youngish) people decide to hold a party inside the mine instead, and if you think we’re getting out of this one without someone getting a pickax through the chest, you have no business watching slasher movies. –Ali Davis
