Down With Love (Widescreen Edition) <b>DVD</b> ~ Ewan McGregor
Down with love takes a script that spoofs the romantic comedies from the 50's and 60's and adds a 21st century flair. Renee and Ewan did a fine job, the sets and costumes were groovy and the 60's cool/spy jazz soundtrack was great.

Spider [Import] DVD ~ Ralph Fiennes
Spider is a fantastic film. Although slow moving, it's showcases some superb acting and Cronenburg's grittiness, while keeping you filled with anticipation and curiosity. Ralph Fiennes, in his best performance to date plays Spider a mumbling schizophrenic who can be seen picking up random bits of trash or putting his hands down his pants to pull out a sock where he keeps his note. Spider recalls his past, particularly the relationship between his mother (played brilliantly by Miranda Richardson - who plays multiple roles in the film) and his father (played by Gabriel Byrne) while he was a small boy. Young spider is played by Bradley Hall a boy who's trying to deal with the confusing… Read more
