"15 men on the dead mans chest.. yo ho ho and a bottle of rum.." Nothing sings pirate more than this song that can be traced back over 100 years. "Dead Man's Chest" (also known as Fifteen Men On A Dead Man's Chest or Derelict) is a fictional sailor's work song from the novel Treasure Island(1883), and a later expanded poem by Young E. Allison (1891). . Some researchers believe Stevenson based the shanty on an actual song.With several Jolly Roger's (pirate flags) to choose from we chose the flag of Calico Jack, he was an English pirate captain during the early 18th century. Why? well look at it - its seriously bad ass :)

(Give It To The Venus Boys!)

(A Great Companion to the album and tour)
I was tempted to give this e.p. a few less stars due to the fact I got a speeding ticket while listening to it yesterday, but that would be unfair to Robyn&the boys wouldn't it (it was during "Queen Of Eyes", one of my favorites, I guess I got a little too excited).

Anyway, this is a cool companion to "Ole! Tarantula", it contains the title track (same as the album version) and six live songs from the tour with The Venus 3 as his backing band. Amazing sound quality and performances throughout, I'd love to hear a recording of a full set from this tour, as they didn't come to my town (Robyn did, however, come through on a solo tour shortly after this and it was spectacular!)

Most surprising are a couple of Soft Boys tunes reworked here, "Queen Of Eyes" and "Give It To The Soft Boys", both awesome versions. If you dig Robyn Hitchcock and his oddball style of psych pop/rock don't hesitate on this one.

I bought this Cd for two reasons: Peter Buck of REM was on it, and Hitchcock was coming to my town to perform and I planned on going. I had not bought anything of his since Perspex Island (1991), but I enjoy a casual listen. This CD is excellent! The live cuts are well produced; so much so, if you didn't hear crowd applause after and before, you'd think it was a live studio recording. Hitchcock's backing band (REM's Buck, Scott McCoughey and Bill Reiflin from REM's touring band and The Minus 5) is superb and well-suited for this album's brand of power pop, and this CD includes songs fom the "Ole' Tarantuala" CD as well as some older Soft Boys songs. Standouts here are "(A Man's Got To Know His Limitations) Briggs", "Queen of Eyes", and "Ole Tarantula", the only studio song here.

Incidentally, the show was fabulous. Hitchcock is charmingly quirky onstage, and his band, The Venus 3, were having a blast. It was a bit surreal seeing Peter Buck perform in a club one week after seeing him get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of fame, but it was obvious that these guys were having an immensely good time, and the songs and performance proved it. The show was so good that I feel like I have missed out on some great music by not having invested in more Robyn Hitchcock before this. Afterwards, the entire band stuck around to talk to the crowd and sign autographs. Please go check them out if you can!

Sex, Food, Death and Tarantulasis the new EP from Robyn Hitchcock, the auteur of the highly-acclaimed albumOlé! Tarantula. It contains six live unreleased tracks including the Soft Boys classic "Give It to the Soft Boys," Hitchcock solo gems like "Sometimes a Blonde," and the Venus 3's "(A Man's Got to Know His Limitations) Briggs." Also included are two videos for "Adventure Rocket Ship" fromOlé! Tarantula--one live-action video and a wistful stop-motion animation rendering. In addition to the these extras overflowing from theOlé! Tarantulasessions and tour, keep an eye out for a documentary profiling the psych-popster to air on the Sundance channel which will debut at the SXSW film festival.

(More Sex Than Spanking)
I was hoping for something between instruction and porn. This is definitely skewed toward porn, with far more time spent on non-spanking foreplay and intercourse than on "Spanking 101". I would've preferred several couples demonstrating different techniques and talking about their reactions. Nina's interview (how she got her nickname: "Spanky", which role she prefers, etc.) was FAR more interesting than watching non-spanking lesbian action.

(Good Loving Guide)

(A great companion to Volume 1.)
This video is quite nice. I bought this for my sweetheart and I. This is the first time I ever bought something like this, so if you are like me, I think you will find it impressive. The video seems to break you in gently and then WOW! There were three loving couples, but there was one particular couple that I thought had the most passion and I gather that is why they put them toward the end. They were also in the bonus track: from Volume One, of which I think I will purchase. I enjoyed listening to the views of people on lovemaking and the sense of humor they had with it. All in all, I did like this video and it's wonderful to have a tasteful video on Black loving couples.
Both DVDs in this series feature attractive, loving AA couples telling and showing what makes sex great for them. The sex scenes are steamy and explicit, but tasteful. My partner and I both enjoyed it very much. It sparked an open conversation for is on what our genuine likes and dislikes are, and inspired us to reveal fantasies we could share with each other. It's true that better communication leads to better sex!
ADVANCED SEXUAL SECRETS OF BLACK LOVERS From the Alexander Institute's Loving Sex series, ranked "Best" by Men's Health Magazine. Here, at last, is an explicit, uninhibited and comprehensive video that celebrates black love in all its erotic beauty. Based on the book, "SoulMates: An Illustrated Guide to Black Love, Sex, and Romance" this video travels deep into zones of sexual pleasure. Volume Two includes explicit segments about sex outside the bedroom, outdoors and in public places, exhilarating role-playing, S/M, sexual fantasies about threesomes and more. Real women and men talk candidly about their experiences and sexual desires. Bursting with hot scenes and practical advice, "SoulMates" is a program both for those who have yet to meet the love of their life, and for those who want to preserve and celebrate the love they already share. -Seduction techniques that work -Creative role playing -Sex outdoors -Sexual fantasies -Sex in public places -Experimenting with S/M

(Wrong movie, you idiots)

(It`s so true!)

(RUN NOW!)

(Serious Spackled With Comedy)

(You knew it before you see it.)
The movie your are reviewing is not the one this refers to. This one is about a woman who falls for the much younger roommate of an author whose book she is editing. She is obsessively in love with the young man and ruins her career and most likely her marriage and life, but that is for the movie to tell you.

If you are in a marriage or have been in an affair and worked it through or having trouble with your marriage... do not watch this. It can bring up a lot of troubling aspects of married life. I heartily recommend it to those who want to see what a train wreck looks like up close.

So, this is not set in Rio and is not stupid. Review the right movies.

AFTER SEX is a funny movie about contemporary relationships. Kate (Brooke Shields), divorced, and three girlfriends go to Palm Springs to spend the weekend. In the hotel bar, after many, many, many drinks, they meet new guys and... Well, when the girls come back home, they have to deal with their own feelings and their relationships. The first time I watched AFTER SEX, I thought to myself: "It's so true!" Now, I watch this charming movie time and time again and I'm quite sure they stole my story! (I`m kidding!) The performers are very natural and real. The soundtrack is lovely (specially the song KISS ME) and it goes so well with the action, that really moves me. In this crazy world we live, where things change so fast and everything seems to be "one way", the movie challenges and, more than this, it makes me feel like finding out what comes... after sex. Marcia Vieira, from Rio de Janeiro/ Brazil.
Save your money and invest in a Pet Rock. You'd get amusement from it than you will from this dreadful film. I picked it up at a Blockbuster previously viewed movie sale. Thank god it was only 1.99. And now I know why. IT'S AWFUL. I honestly tried to watch this movie, but I had to fast forward through most of it because of the insipid dialogue and trite premise. It tries to come off as a serio-comic romance, but it's boring, predictable and trite. If you come across it, lie very still and it may just sniff you and leave you alone. If it doesn't, may God take mercy on your mortal soul.
I actually really enjoyed this movie--a lot. I throw this movie into the category of the successor to those relationship movies such as About Last Night and St. Elmo's Fire, but with a somewhat lighter tone. I thought the ending was well done. The characters and their situations felt real. I don't want to give parts of this movie away, but there are a few interactions with the guys that I found hilarious.

I wish the DVD had more features--actually, any features. Apparently, they did not want to spend a lot of time to put any of those special DVD perks before they shipped it out.
I know everyone who watched this movie wouldn't like to comment on it because of the title of this movie. But I'd like to take the plunge and be the first person to review it.

I accidentaly knew this movie from an ad on a portal site of South Korea, which was Brooke Shields with a cigar. She is famous and popular in my country, so I wanted to watch this for a try.

This movie is for mature audiences, but not so-called an adult movie. You can't expect a stuff except a slight upper-body one. That's usually good for most viewers.

For the content? It's just what men and women are all about for the ages in this movie. You knew it before you will see this. If you'd like to know it, you don't have to know it.

If you have time and nothing to do, it would be an option to watch this movie. But it would be better for you to watch other better movies, if you'd choose to watch a DVD/VHS.

Just watching your familiar actresses will be fine and that's all. I don't know how familiar they are because I can't watch U.S. TV series except very famous ones in my country.

It's up to you how you spend your leisure time.

(Tasteful and Educational)
This is one of the most tasteful and educational video about the history of sex that you can ever have! And its really all that you need if you are interested in the fun and flambouyant and ever changing viewpoints of sex from ancient times to present. It's not only educational, but it's very tasteful as well.
From medieval talking penises and naughty priests to sexuality as transcendence in theKama Sutra, the History Channel's five-partHistory of Sexdebunks the myth of history's innocence. InAncient Civilizations, Mesopotamian men considered women property and believed that divine masturbation created Egypt, that there were no virgins, and that some mummies had erect phalluses. In classical Greece, husbands had their pick of sexual partners and proper wives went dildo shopping.The Eastern Worldconsiders the spirituality and teaching of sex, including Chinese pillow books.The Middle Agesexamines both denigration of the body and lusty, bawdy frivolity as well as the fashionable art of codpiece stuffing. The political extremes of repression and excess continue inFrom Don Juan to Queen Victoriawith the pilgrims, the Marquis de Sade, frigid Victorian wives, and the golden age of prostitution and pornography. Finally, the20th Centurydiscusses the impact of motion pictures, automobiles, Stonewall, the pill, AIDS, and the Internet on sex. The series relies on upper-class men's historical records and therefore underrepresents women and homosexuals. However, the commentary from a diverse and insightful panel of academics and the rich selection of historic images make this a tasteful, informative history of sex.--Tara Chace

An abusive sexual relationship between a white schoolteacher and a young black janitor complicates the schoolteacher's struggle to come to grips with her sexuality and emotions. Sexual guilt weights heavy on Miss Evelyn Wyckoff. At 35, she is torn between losing her mind or losing her virginity. Anne Heywood stars as Evelyn Wyckoff, a 1950s Kansas high school teacher. Shes a lonely 35-year-old virgin. Donald Pleasence plays her therapist. One day after school, she gets assaulted by a black janitor named Rafe. However, she submits to Rafe's dominance and, in a peculiarly odd twist that is so poorly explained in movies of this generation, Miss Wyckoff appears to enjoy the experience! However, the relationship is flawed from the start. Rafe demonstrates that the quality of a relationship is not improved by being a roguish abuser which he proves to be. Secrets such as this are beyond the collective understanding of 1956 Kansas.Once the students and townspeople find out about it, Miss Wyyckoff becomes the object of their scorn. In retrospect, THE SHAMING is both a brilliant and bothersome period piece unraveling a well-written and sensitive story, but also revealing disturbing aspects of how much has changed in terms of society's overall view of the many themes involved in THE SHAMING dealing with sexuality, race, assault, gender, education and behavior in general.

(ONE OF WOODY'S BEST, BUT THE DVD HAS SOME PROBLEMS!)

(The Most Interesting Part Is Seeing 1970's New York)

(Manhattan review)

(Modern Cinematic Masterpiece)

(THE ISLAND THE SPECTACULAR STAR ON THE BIG SCREEN; A THOUGHTFUL MEDITATION ON LIFE AND MORALITY UPON THE SMALL FLAT SCREEN)
I have always thought 'Manhattan' was one of Woody Allen's best films. Filmed in glorious black and white with many of Woody's staple players and a great performance by young Mariel Hemingway. The DVD has a good transfer, but I noticed that there is a slight pause between chapter breaks which is a little distracting! Too bad, it deserves a better treatment and these kinds of glitches are really inexcusable.
Let the diatribe begin...again...

Is it any wonder the 1970's was once termed the era of the Me Generation? Not only are the characters in this film prime examples of that selfish bevy but I can't see Manhattan appealing to anyone other than those who either make up that mindset or else wish to study it. Let's be honest, most people are sheep, and if they're told something is masterpiece of art or literature or cinema, they believe it and cling to that belief with mastiff-like tenacity. I suspect that explains much about Woody Allen's alleged magnum opus, Manhattan.

I guess I'm having trouble seeing this film as a masterpiece. It was all right, I don't regret investing the time to see it, but a masterpiece? Many people cite the brilliance of its opening few minutes, but why does Woody Allen get credit for that when George Gershwin wrote the music, and the skyline of Manhattan was created by other people? Yes, adoring Woody Allen fans, I'm saying it: the filming of the scenery set to Rhapsody in Blue could as easily have been done by an educated media arts student. As for the plot, well, it was thin and seemed badly dated to my twenty-something sensibilities. Pampered pseudo-intellectuals "tawking" endlessly about how convoluted their amoral lives are? Sorry, that's been done and done and done, and for that matter, done better. And then there's the ethics of it all wherein a man teetering on the brink of post-middle age serially commits the statutory rape of a high school girl. Oh, I forgot, that's somehow avant-garde. Gee, I bet his lawyers loved that storyline back when the accusations of child molestation were flying, huh?

Yes, I know, I'm being a little mean here. Woody Allen is a witty soul who has given us a number of fine movies (about one film in six he's made) and since movie appreciation isn't the inarguable exactitude of mathematics, then appreciation others believe they have for this movie is valid in their own minds. I just can't see it...

Okay, fire away. I've got on my Kevlar dress...

I am always very pleased with everything that I order from Amazon. DVD was great and it arrived on time and in good condition. Thanks
Woody Allen said in an Interview once that 'Manhattan', was never the film he intended to write, the end result turning out infact completely different to the intial vision he had, and that he was actually very surprised at the popularity and accolades it earned by audiences and critics alike. Yet this supposedly unintentional fluke, became the definitive 'Woody Allen' film to many, and a modern cinematic masterpiece that paid reverent hommage to Allen's home town of 'New York City'. A city which Allen's main character 'Issac', admits to 'romantacizing out of all proportion'. I admit it was partly Allen's films over the years that led to my fascination and long distance love affair with New York. A melting pot of artists, writers, intellectuals, Jazz, Gershwin, smokey bars and cosy restaurants, quirky bookshops and delis. And of course the highly strung Manhattan neurotic, never without their 'shrink', or analyst. It's all here in this 70's cinema classic. Woody Allen could not have captured the magic and poetry of his beloved city more sublimely; magnificently filmed in black and white 'Panavision', with an exquisite musical score, cinematography, and all round cast ensemble. Most of my favourite of Allen's films are his collaborations with Diane Keaton, they had such a wonderful chemistry.
The charm of Allen's films lie largley in his clever, witty, satirical and often sadonic observations of human nature, foibles and weaknesses. The fragility of life and fickleness of relationships. Allen's movies often present like a modern take on Brechtian theatre, with the central character acting partly as narrator, and detatched observer or commentator as well as participant. Pondering lifes deeper questions, puzzlements and moral dilemmas. Presented always with his wry Jewish American, intellectual brand of humour. Manhattan, along with 'Hannah and her Sisters', and 'Crimes and Misdemeanours', in my view probably display this "wry observation" the most stylishly and successfully. His films (particularly the earlier ones) are also full of mocking self parody, where by he is really often just playing himself or at the very least aspects of himself. There are some hilarious moments and memorable vintage 'Woody' lines here.
"She's 17 and I'm 42..". Says Issac to his friends about his young girlfriend Tracey (Mariel Hemmingway)."I'm older than her Father... I'm dating a girl where in I can beat up her Father, that phenomenon never occurred before". And on relationships: " I'm old fashioned I believe people should mate for life like pigeons.. or Catholics". But my favourite, in conversation with his ex wife( the divine Meryl Streep)who left him for another woman:
"Well you knew my history when you married me".
" Yeah my analyst warned me, but you were so beautiful that I got another analyst".
The characters in Manhattan are very 'New York' yet ones that audiences recognize within themselves and own lives, or society at large. With all their petty adult problems of extra marital affairs, and flitting from one relationship to the next. Perhaps a subconscious distraction to avoid dealing with life's more deeper issues, such as death. A subject never far from Allen's thoughts.
Allen and Keaton are great as always but I think Mariel Hemmingway really steals the show here, she's just perfectly gorgeous as Allen (Issac's) young love interest, who despite her youth has a wisdom beyond her years, enabling her to teach him ultimately as much as he's taught her, especially in the beautifully ironic twist at the end.
Manhattan really is a timeless visual piece of cinematic art, and most quintessential 'New York' movie. It most definitely would not have worked as well in colour. As one reviewer eloquently put it, the city itself is as much a star of this movie as the actors, if not more so.
Last year I was finally lucky enough to have my dream of visiting New York City become a reality, and I was not disappointed. Every so often as I strolled through Central Park, or Greenwich village, I half expected to catch a glimpse of Woody in the street, hearing Gershwin and Cole Porter tunes as I gazed at the Brooklyn Bridge or the Russian Tea room. New York is certainly very much his 'Town'.

Warning:
This is 1979.
Writers use typewriters, and paper, with no digital memory.
Their only electromagnetic device is a Sony cassette recorder replacing the dictaphone of an earlier cinematic era. In fact the cassette deck is so extraordinary a tool at the time that it overflows the big screen, as does the bridge, as it does ten years later in The Thin Blue Line, in a dramatic, fascinating diagonal shot which overwhelms the material.

Warning:
This is 1979.
People were still influenced by early imprintings of Bogey and Bacall, and drinking and smoking tobacco cigarettes was still considered romantic by the older generation, as mocked in the first scene. Indoor smoking was not yet a crime in New York City.

Warning:
This is 1979.
People are not yet epidemically overweight.
A 42 year old man might conceivably however improbably have a seventeen year old girlfriend, with only a laughing reference to the police. In fact this is the most improbable (and repugnant) device of the film, which closes with the young girl counseling her elder, she the wiser now.

Warning:
This movie best seen upon the big screen for the awe-inspiring visuals backed by the Gershwin score. The dialogue and characters only echo the emptiness of the times, the "negative capabilities."

It is a love story for the island itself of its day, never to be so dramatically depicted again, never before since Kong scaled the Empire State, despite the other New York films from this auteur.

Warning: The story line here might best be described as Mr. Allen still in the grips of Bergman, not yet fully finding his own voice. This script may best be described as practice for writing, or a first draft for writing, the overlooked yet remarkable Alice, in which Mia Farrow plays the Woody Allen role. Get that instead; it stands up far better on the small flat screen, and includes an intriguing glimpse of Catholic theology and morality. Here Catholics are only noted in passing for their alleged life-long commitment.

This movie is highly recommended to those who need to see Manhattan once more, as it was thirty years ago, as it was inhabited by an empty headed intellectual elite, who fight over a woman with screams of intellectual angst and empty universal philosophical principles.

As always the best scene is the cameo with Mr. Wallace Shawn, he of My Dinner with Andre of his moving monologue The Fever and his loveable yet tyrannic appearance in Toy Story (10th Anniversary Edition).

Get it. The best bit is the accurate send up of US televised "comedy" which Allen's character truly lambastes for the horror which it is, saying something like "You guys are all on drugs; no wonder you find it funny." Their response: "It must have substance; we're fighting the censors all of the time."

Manhattan, Woody Allen's follow-up to Oscar-winningAnnie Hall, is a film of many distinctions: its glorious all-Gershwin score, its breathtakingly elegant black-and-white, widescreen cinematography by Gordon Willis (best-known for shooting theGodfathermovies); its deeply shaded performances; its witty screenplay that marked a new level in Allen's artistic maturity; and its catalog of Things that Make Life Worth Living. ButManhattanis also distinguished in the realm of home video as the first motion picture to be releasedonlyin a widescreen version. You wouldn't want to see it any other way. Allen's "Rhapsody in Gray" concerns, as his own character puts it, "people in Manhattan who are constantly creating these real, unnecessary, neurotic problems for themselves, because it keeps them from dealing with more unsolvable, terrifying problems about the universe." It's a romantic comedy about infidelity and betrayal, the rules of love and friendship, young girls (a radiant and sweet Mariel Hemingway) and older men (Allen), innocence, and sophistication. (a favorite phrase is used to describe a piece of sculpture at the Guggenheim: "It has a marvelous kind of negative capability.") The movie's themes can be summed up in two key lines: "I can't believe you met somebody you like better than me," and "It's very important to have some kind of personal integrity." OK, so they may not sound like such sparkling snatches of brilliant dialogue, butManhattanputs those ideas across with such emotion that you feel an ache in your heart.--Jim Emerson

(Among the five best-ever baseball movies)

(Super fast shipping, excellent price. Thanks!!)

(A Masterpiece)

(One of the best Baseball Movies!)

(Bull Durham)
To my mind, Bull Durham is one of the five best-ever baseball movies. Costner and Sarandon play their roles brilliantly.
I can't believe this movie is 20 years old!! It is truly timeless. One of my all time favorites.
The best movie about baseball ever made. And not so bad on the sexy score either. Great writing, great acting. A pleasure to watch. It is, however, a bbit racier than I remembered, so I'd give it a PG13 or maybe even an R rating.
NOT for young people...but for adults it is one of the best baseball movies of all time... I highly recommend!
This was an excellent movie. I had never seen it before but I had heard if was excellent, so thought it about time to buy it. Very informative but comical at times. Love Kevin Costner and Susan Sarandon.
