| | 2. |  | Triumph of the Will
from Meridan Video Corp
Customer Review:
This propaganda film of Hitler is worth watching, not because Hitler was good, but because he was evil. Evil can be packaged in such a way to appeal to many, and for that reason, this is a great history lesson. What makes this edition the best is the running commentary throughout the movie,... more info

| | 3. |  | Mein Krieg
from Kino Video
Customer Review:
I believe that McNamara is wrong about what the gentlemen is describing. McNamara states that the old soldier is describing the journey to the front before the invasion of Poland. My take on it is that the old soldier is describing the move to the front through Poland and to the assembly positions... more info

| | 4. |  | Un Chien Andalou / Land Without Bread
from Kino Video
Customer Review:
This tape includes two very different pieces from Buñuel (directed at not too distant time from each other, the late 1920s and the early 1930s). The first is Un Chien Andalou, which is credited as being codirected by Salvador Dali. This surreal short must have been terribly shocking when it... more info

| | 5. |  | The Clowns
from Henstooth Video
Customer Review:
How lucky we are to have this wonder available, as copyright problems have kept it out of European cimenas for decades. If there has ever been a better film, I haven't seen it. It rings as true now as when I saw it as a student in Paris in the seventies. Yes, the pathos is milked for all it is... more info

| | 7. |  | Kinski: My Best Fiend
from Starz / Anchor Bay
Customer Review:
Werner Herzog, one of the greatest directors of our time, and Klaus Kinski, one of its greatest actors, collaborated with one another in five films. Both were geniuses, both stubbornly protective of their artistic integrity, and both slightly egomaniac (actually, more than "slightly"). This... more info

| | 8. |  | Hidden Korea
from Pbs (Direct)
Customer Review:
Using cuisine as a sort of touchstone, this documentary explores many aspects of traditional Korean culture, including herbal medicine, Confucian and Buddhist rituals, and celadon pottery making. After a few scenes of crowded Seoul at the beginning, the film leaves modern Korea behind and goes out... more info

| | 9. |  | Ernesto Che Guevara, The Bolivian Diary
from Fox Lorber
Customer Review:
The American public is a sucker for an underdog story. Truth be told, Che was not much more than a literate, terrorist thug. Much like Osama bin Laden, except not as charismatic. He's no different than the insurgents we see in videos coming out of Iraq. Che executed a great number of prisoners, with... more info

| | 10. |  | Deadly Currents
from New Yorker Video
Customer Review:
I saw this film many years ago (ten+) at university. I have thought about it a few times a year since then and this morning I woke up wondering if I could find it. It seems I have.
The film humanises both sides of this issue and shows there is no monopoly on craziness or goodness. Didn't leave... more info
