Collecting jewelry and gemstones has been my passion ever since childhood.

(12/12/05) Documentarian Thomas Riedelsheimer shows us Andy Goldsworthy as he creates art in natural settings using natural materials such as driftwood, ice, mud, leaves, and stones. Goldsworthy comments on his "earthworks" and occasionally responds to offscreen questions from Riedelsheimer while he painstakingly builds his outdoors sculptures. With some exceptions, such as a winding stone wall that he built in Mountainville, NY, Goldsworthy's creations are intentionally mutable works. We see how several of them fall apart, melt, or drift away due to exposure to the elements; we also see, for example, a complex structure of interconnected sticks collapse while Goldsworthy is still working on it. Riedelsheimer takes us to Goldsworthy's home in Penport, Scotland, and to a French museum, but the emphasis of the film is on observing Goldsworthy at work. ~ Todd Kristel, All Movie GuideSee less

(12/12/05) Just when it seemed zombie movies had been done to death, a stylish, intelligent jolt from director Danny Boyle springs the sub-genre back to life. 28 Days Later, based on Alex Garland's novel, employs the allegorical underpinnings of all the best zombie shockers. After an opening scene in which some misguided animal rights activists spring a dangerously infected primate from his lab cage, Boyle jumps four weeks ahead. A London bike messenger named Jim (Cillian Murphy) awakes from a coma to discover the city is virtually deserted, and he soon joins a few other survivors in a desperate fight against the "infected" -- people overtaken with a contagious, uncontrollable rage defined only by an imperative to infect. With due homage to George Romero's zombie classics, Boyle chooses to re-imagine rather than reinvent the genre: The infected, for instance, move with furious speed -- in stark contrast to Romero's lumbering undead. Inevitably, the story boils down to the genre's essential...See less

(12/12/05) Humankind's uncertain place in the modern world inspires epic cinematic poetry in the first two films of the so-called "Qatsi" trilogy from director Godfrey Reggio and composer Philip Glass. Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqquatsi are film portraits without words -- a remarkable fusion of Glass's hypnotic minimalist music with vivid imagery. In the more striking of the two films, 1983's Koyaanisqatsi (the title is a Hopi word that means "life out of balance"), Reggio collaborated with cinematographer Ron Fricke (Baraka) to contrast the awesome splendor of nature with the rhythms of automated urban life. This is accomplished through striking shifts of perspective, as fast- and slow-motion photography and wide-angle and telephoto lenses create a fuguelike intertwining of visual metaphors. Most arresting are the speeded-up scenes of traffic and crowds that reveal an urban environment pulsing and breathing like a huge organism. By contrast, 1988's Powaqqatsi (Hopi for "a way of life that consumes...See less

(12/12/05) Some people are born with good luck, but others try to attain it however they can -- and at any cost -- in this offbeat psychological thriller from Spain. Sam (Max Von Sydow) is an elderly man who lives beneath a gambling casino on an island off the Spanish coast. In Sam's world, good fortune is a commodity that can be acquired from others, and while would-be gambler Federico (Eusebio Poncela) has a genuine talent for taking good luck from those who have it, Sam's gift is even stronger, and after a long day of absorbing positive vibrations from winning gamblers, Sam steals the day's "take" from him, leaving Federico to plan his revenge. Federico becomes aware of Tomas (Leonardo Sbaraglia), a man who recently survived a plane crash, and is convinced he has even more luck than Sam can overcome; the two become partners, and Federico enters Tomas in an underground tournament designed to determine who Lady Luck smiles upon most sweetly. After Federico and Tomas win a handsome home from...See less

(12/12/05) We're not certain that each of the 14 movies compiled in this deluxe box set rates the "masterpiece" designation, but there's no arguing that the lion's share of them fall into that category. For example, Shadow of a Doubt (1942), starring Joseph Cotten as a murderer who hides from the police by staying with unsuspecting family members, has been consistently underrated. Rear Window (’54) never ceases to impress, and Hitchcock's ’56 remake of The Man Who Knew Too Much, starring James Stewart and Doris Day, is even better than the director's much-praised ’34 version. Although the gimmicky Rope (’48), shot in a series of ten-minute "takes," comes off today as overly theatrical and self-satisfied, it still commands respect for the ingenuity needed to pull it off. The Trouble with Harry (’56) continues to delight lovers of black comedy, a subgenre rarely explored -- but definitely appreciated -- by this gifted filmmaker. Psycho (’60) remains the definitive Hitchcock shocker for many fans,...See less

(12/12/05) Alfred Hitchcock was named by Entertainment Weekly as the Greatest Director of All Time. A solid case for this could be made with The Signature Collection, featuring nine classics from the Master of Suspense -- seven of which are available for the first time on DVD. The most anticipated of these is 1951's Strangers on a Train, starring Farley Granger as a champion tennis player who meets pushy playboy Robert Walker while en route to Washington, D.C. Both men have problems, and when Walker suggests they take care of each other's dirty work, a morbid chain of events is unleashed. The two-disc Strangers on a Train features the original theatrical release as well as an alternate "preview" version of the film, commentaries, featurettes, and more. Also included in The Signature Collection are Dial M for Murder (originally shown in 3-D); Foreign Correspondent, starring Joel McCrea; Henry Fonda in The Wrong Man; Marlene Dietrich and Jane Wyman in Stage Fright; Montgomery Clift and Karl Malden...See less

(12/12/05) Born Into Brothels is a documentary about the inspiring non-profit foundation Kids With Cameras, which teaches photography skills to children in marginalized communities. In 1998, New York-based photographer Zana Briski started photographing prostitutes in the red-light district of Calcutta. She eventually developed a relationship with their children, who were fascinated by her equipment. After several years of learning in workshops with Briski, the kids created their own photographs with point-and-shoot 35 mm cameras. Their images capture the intimacy and color of everyday life in the overpopulated sections of Calcutta. Proceeds from the sale of the children's photographs go to fund their future education. Directed by Briski and filmmaker Ross Kauffman, Born Into Brothels was shown at the Sundance Film Festival in 2004 as part of the documentary competition. Andrea LeVasseurSee less

(12/12/05) The classic Burt Reynolds football-behind-bars flick The Longest Yard crosses the pond and gets an appropriate British accent in the process in this rough-and-tumble mixture of sports and action-comedy. Danny Mehan (Vinnie Jones) was one of the biggest stars in British football (what Americans call soccer), until he was caught rigging a game during a championship tournament. In the wake of this scandal, Danny's career takes a nosedive and his life spins out of control, until he finally ends up in prison for three years on an assault and battery conviction. Danny discovers there are a number of football fans behind bars who still hate him for fixing the game, but Danny has one powerful fan in this prison. The warden (David Hemmings) is a devoted football supporter with a taste for gambling; he's been trying to assemble a semi-pro team comprised of the prison's guards, but Danny is just smart enough to know this would seal his fate with his fellow prisoners. Instead, he offers to put...See less
