Far Side of the Moon

Chroniques et points de vue:From :A quiet film by French-Canadian Robert Lepage (creator of Cirque du Soleil's hit 'Ka' production), Far Side of the Moon is a thoughtful look at a middle-aged man who is lonely, underemployed, and respected by no one--not even his twin brother. Lepage plays the dual roles of outcast Phillippe, a fortysomething telemarketer trying to earn his doctorate, and Andre, a selfish and lazy weatherman. When their mother dies, Phillippe is heartbroken. Andre is more pragmatic--she was sick, it was her time ...

Men in Black II (Full Screen) [2 Discs]
»rank: 9998
Chroniques et points de vue:Additional Features:The hands-down highlight of MllB's bonus features is 'The Chubb Chubbs,' a delightful computer-animated cartoon (briefly shown in theaters with MllB) that has the awkward distinction of being funnier and more inventive than MllB. The other features offer an extensive dossier of production details, paying worthy tribute to the ingenuity of MllB's creative team. Fifteen featurettes cover virtually every stage of production, from conceptual designs (in the DVD-R0M section, along with the complete screenplay) to Danny Elfman's dynamic score. Director Barry ...

Cirque Du Soleil: Journey Of Man
»rank: 11210
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Like all Cirque du Soleil productions, Journey of Man is a showcase for transcendent beauty and astonishing physical achievement. 0riginally produced as a 3-D lMAX presentation, this 39-minute film remains impressive on smaller screens, although its guiding theme (the evolution of humankind through the power of dreams, faith, and love) is sweetly contrived. lt's the way this theme is expressed that matters: elements of Cirque du Soleil's awe-inspiring stage act are performed amidst wondrous settings, accompanied by Benoît Jutras's inspiring score, ...
