| Fallen Idol (Criterion) The Fallen Idol was the first of three masterpieces to result from the legendary meeting of director Carol Reed and writer Graham Greene, who together would also create The Third Man and Our Man in Havana. Elegantly balancing suspense and farce, this tale of the fraught relationship between a boy and the beloved butler he suspects of murder is a delightfully macabre thriller of the first order and a visually and verbally dazzling knockout. |

| Stalker (Tarkovsky/1976) I've heard nothing but amazing things about this film. Near a gray and unnamed city is the Zone, an alien place guarded by barbed wire and soldiers. Over his wife's numerous objections, a man rises in the dead of night: he's a stalker, one of a handful who have the mental gifts (and who risk imprisonment) to lead people into the Zone to the Room, a place where one's secret hopes come true. That night, he takes two people into the Zone: a popular writer who is burned out, cynical, and questioning his genius; and a quiet scientist more concerned about his knapsack than the journey. In the deserted Zone, the approach to the Room must be indirect. As they draw near, the rules seem to change and the stalker faces a crisis. |

| Azumi We've had this film for something like 2 years. American viewers rarely get the overseas films when their actually in their prime. That's why we try to offer the films when they become available in region 1 editions. You never know if they'll come out over here. Finally, this is being released stateside. This is a great film with plenty of choreography and action, highly recommended. |

| The Da Vinci Code Tom Hanks and Amelie try to crack a code. Like "national treasure" for literate people, which is still somewhere below average. Any movie that angers alot of people must be worth something. |

| Wassup Rockers A change of pace for Larry Clark whose other films Kids, and the never released extremely disturbing Ken Park are normally known for being extreme and in your face. Another set of 'kids', but now from the "ghetto" of LA. Clark balances the social commentary with a self-aware use of stereotypes and exaggerations to both dramatic and comedic effect. |

| Double Life of Veronique (Criterion/Kieslowski) Krzysztof Kieslowski's international breakthrough remains one of his most beloved films, a ravishing, mysterious rumination on identity, love, and human intuition. Ir�ne Jacob is incandescent as both Weronika, a Polish choir soprano, and her double, V�ronique, a French music teacher. Though unknown to each other, the two women share an enigmatic, purely emotional bond, which Kieslowski details in gorgeous reflections, colors, and movements. Aided by Slawomir Idziak's shimmering cinematography and Zbigniew Preisner's haunting, operatic score, Kieslowski creates one of cinema's most purely metaphysical works. The Double Life of Veronique is an unforgettable symphony of feeling. |

| Pandora's Box (Criterion) One of the masters of early German cinema, G. W. Pabst had an innate talent for discovering actresses (including Greta Garbo). And perhaps none of his female stars shone brighter than Kansas native and onetime Ziegfeld girl Louise Brooks, whose legendary persona was defined by Pabst's lurid, controversial melodrama Pandora's Box. Sensationally modern, the film follows the downward spiral of the fiery, brash, yet innocent showgirl Lulu, whose sexual vivacity has a devastating effect on everyone she comes in contact with. Daring and stylish, Pandora's Box is one of silent cinema's great masterworks and a testament to Brooks's dazzling individuality. |
