ONVIDEO'S WEEKLY GUIDE TO HOME VIDEO RELEASES
FOR Tuesday, February 27 -- MONDAY, March 5
GOOD YEAR, A
London-based investment expert Max Skinner (Russell Crowe) moves
to Provence to sell a small vineyard he has inherited from his
late uncle. Max reluctantly settles into what ultimately becomes
an intoxicating new chapter in his life, as he comes to realize
that life is meant to be savored. Confident and cocky, headstrong
and handsome, Max Skinner is a successful London banker who
specializes in trading bonds. A financial barracuda on the banks
of the Thames, Max devours the competition in his efforts to
conquer the European market. His latest conquest has netted a
tidy seven-figure profit, much to the chagrin of his Saville Row-
draped rivals. Max's triumph is in perfect keeping with his
philosophy: winning isn't everything, it's the only thing! But
then Max receives word from France alerting him to sad news: his
elderly Uncle Henry has passed away. Max, Henry's closest blood
relative, is the sole beneficiary of his estate, which includes a
Provencal chateau and vineyard, La Siroque, where Henry
cultivated grapes for more than 30 years. Max reluctantly begins
settling into life at the chateau. He reunites with the chateau's
longtime vigneron, Francis Duflot (still tending the vines after
three decades), whom Max remembers from his boyhood visits. Max's
memories and the passage of time bring forth emotions and
feelings he thought were long lost, and afford him a new
appreciation of his late Uncle Henry's philosophy on life -- and
on life in Provence: "There's nowhere else in the world where one
can keep busy doing so little, yet enjoy it so much!" Vitals:
Director: Ridley Scott. Stars: Albert Finney, Russell Crowe,
Freddie Highmore, Rafe Spall, Archie Panjabi. 2006, CC, MPAA
rating: PG-13, 114 min., Comedy Drama, Box office gross: $7.392
million, Fox. 3 stars
RETURN, THE
Joanna Mills (Sarah Michelle Gellar) is a tough young
Midwesterner determined to learn the truth behind the
increasingly terrifying supernatural visions that have been
haunting her. Joanna has made a successful career for herself as
a sales representative for a trucking company. But her private
life has been difficult; estranged from her father (Sam Shepard),
stalked by an obsessed ex-boyfriend (Adam Scott), and with few
friends, Joanna fears that she is losing control. She sees and
feels the brutal murder of a young woman she's never met, at the
hands of a heartless killer -- a man who appears to be making
Joanna his next target. Determined to fight back, Joanna is
guided by her nightmares to the murdered woman's hometown of La
Salle, Texas. Once there, she is drawn to an outsider, Terry
(Peter O'Brien), and discovers that some secrets can't be buried;
some spirits never die; and that the murder she is trying to
solve may be her own. Vitals: Director: Asif Kapadia. Stars:
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kate Beahan, Peter O Brien, Adam Scott,
Sam Shepard. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 85 min., Horror, Box
office gross: $7.744 million, Universal. 2 stars
STRANGER THAN FICTION
Wonderful oddball comedy that pushes the envelope of movie
storytelling has Will Ferrell star as Harold Crick, an IRS Agent
whose world is turned upside-down when he begins to hear his life
being chronicled by a narrator only he can hear. The Narrator,
Kay Eiffel (Emma Thompson), a nearly forgotten author of tragic
novels, is struggling to complete her latest book, unaware that
her protagonist is alive and uncontrollably guided by her words.
Fiction and reality collide when the bewildered and hilariously
resistant Harold hears the Narrator say that events have been set
in motion that will lead to his imminent death.
One morning, a seemingly average and generally solitary IRS agent
Crick begins to hear a female voice narrating his every action,
thought and feeling in alarmingly precise detail. Harold's
carefully controlled life is turned upside down by this narration
only he can hear, and when the voice declares that Harold Crick
is facing imminent death, he realizes he must find out who is
writing his story and persuade her to change the ending. The
voice in Harold's head turns out to be the once celebrated, but
now nearly forgotten, novelist Karen "Kay" Eiffel, who is
struggling to find an ending for what might be her best book. Her
only remaining challenge is to figure out a way to kill her main
character, but little does she know that Harold Crick is alive
and well and inexplicably aware of her words and her plans for
him. To make matters worse, Kay's publisher has dispatched a
hard-nosed "assistant," Penny Escher (Queen Latifah), to force
Kay to finish her novel and finish off Crick. Desperate to take
control of his destiny and avoid an untimely demise, Harold seeks
help from literary professor Jules Hilbert (Dustin Hoffman), who
suggests that Harold might be able to change his fate by turning
his story from a tragedy into a comedy. Professor Hilbert
suggests that Harold try to follow one of comedy's most elemental
formulas: a love story between two people who hate each other.
His suggestion leads Harold to initiate an unlikely romance with
a defiant audit subject, free-spirited baker Ana Pascal (Maggie
Gyllenhaal). As Harold experiences true love and true life for
the first time, he becomes convinced that he has escaped his
fate, as his story seems to be taking on all the trappings of a
comedy in which he will not, and cannot, die. But Harold is
unaware that in a Karen Eiffel tragedy, the lead characters
always die at exactly the moment when they have the most to live
for. Harold and Kay find themselves in unexplored territory as
each must weigh the value of a single human existence against
what might just be an immortal work of art: a novel about life
and death -- and taxes. Vitals: Director: Marc Forster. Stars:
Will Ferrell, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Dustin Hoffman, Queen Latifah,
Emma Thompson. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: PG-13, 113 min., Comedy,
Box office gross: $40.137 million, Sony. 4 stars
TENACIOUS D IN THE PICK OF DESTINY
Comedians/musicians Jack Black and Kyle Gass bring their infamous
rock duo Tenacious D to the big screen, telling the story of how
"The D" became the self-proclaimed greatest band on Earth.
Vitals: Director: Liam Lynch. Stars: Jack Black, Kyle Gass, JR
Reed, Roonie James Dio, Meatloaf, Ben Stiller, Tim Robbins, Amy
Adams, Dave Grohl, Amy Poehler, Colin Hanks, Paul F. Tompkins,
Troy Gentile. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: R, 93 min., Drama, Box
office gross: $8.319 million, New Line. 2 stars
TIDELAND
"Tideland" celebrates the resiliency of childhood and the power
of the imagination as only Terry Gilliam, one of our few truly
visionary filmmakers working today, could conceive it. Jeliza-
Rose (Jodelle Ferland) is a young girl in a very unusual
situation -- both of her parents are junkies and she is left to
her own devices for entertainment. When her mother dies, her
father (Jeff Bridges), a rock 'n' roll musician well past his
prime, takes her to a remote farm in the country, where she
escapes the vast loneliness of her new home by retreating into a
world that exists only in her mind. Here, fireflies have names,
bog-men awaken at dusk, and squirrels talk. And the heads of her
four dolls -- Mystique, Baby Blonde, Glitter Gal, and Sateen Lips
-- long since separated from their bodies, keep her company.
Optimistic and surreal, humorous and suspenseful, filled with
extraordinary, hallucinatory images that defy description ... in
other words, Terry Gilliam's mind laid bare on the screen.
Vitals: Director: Terry Gilliam. Stars: Jodelle Ferland, Brendan
Fletcher, Janet McTeer, Jeff Bridges, Jennifer Tilly. 2006, CC,
MPAA rating: R, 121 min., Fantasy, Box office gross:
$.061million, ThinkFilm.

NEWS
DVD COLLECTIBLES:
Finally, fans of Patrick McGoohan and the U.K.'s "Danger Man"
series can jump for joy: A&E Home Video will release this week
"Secret Agent (AKA: Danger Man) -- The Complete Collection," a
massive 18-disc set with all 86 episodes in their original
broadcast order, from the original season that aired only in the
U.K. to the two color episodes that provided the finale; $149.95.
McGoohan originally turned down James Bond and The Saint, but
couldn't say no to one of espionage fiction's greatest
characters: the principled, dashing John Drake. Undercover as a
travel agent, Drake pursued his globe-spanning missions for
England's super-secret M9 department. The show adhered to a
radical set of rules for the genre: no guns, no gimmicks, no love
scenes. Combined with McGoohan's charisma and talent, the result
was television magic, the most realistic and intensely dramatic
spy show of the sixties. Beloved by fans and critics, the series
ended when McGoohan sought to expand his creative role and
produced "The Prisoner." While the world gained a new television
favorite and continued to enjoy McGoohan's dashing presence on
the small screen, the loss of Secret Agent Man left a void in the
TV landscape that was never adequately filled. This collection
fills that void.
Also due this week is "Bob Dylan: Don't Look Back -- '65 Tour
Deluxe Edition" (1967), the ultimate look at Bob Dylan's concert
tour of England in the spring of 1965 -- one of the most intimate
profiles of an artist ever put to film. This definitive set
includes the remastered classic film by D.A. Pennebaker, a brand-
new, hour-long look at Dylan, and the original 168-page companion
book to the film. More than just a concert film, "Don't Look
Back" is a window into the spirit of the sixties, and one of the
poet-musicians whose words and songs defined it. A two-disc set
with commentaries by director D.A. Pennebaker and former tour
manager Bob Neuwirth, never-before-seen footage, more; $49.95
from Docurama.
"Another Sky" (1954) is the only film directed by screenwriter
and film critic Gavin Lambert ("I Never Promised You a Rose
Garden," "The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone"). Victoria Grayson,
Catherine Lacey, Lee Montague, Ahmed Ben Mahomed, Tayeb and Alan
Forbes star in a tale about a demure and prim governess who
arrives in Marrakesh to begin a new job as a paid companion to a
wealthy English expatriate and is seduced by the men, music, and
mystery of Morocco. Restored by Facets Video.
