Glass: The Perfect American [Blu-ray] Product Description The last days of the American icon Walt Disney form a powerful and poignant subject for Philip Glass's latest opera; which was filmed at its first performances in Madrid in January 2013. Phelim McDermott's spectacular production is worthy of Disney's own visual imagination and its definitive influence on American culture; while in the pit is the conductor Dennis Russell Davies; an experienced and authoritative champion of the composer's hypnotically beautiful music; which gives wings to Rudy Wurlitzer's operatic transformation of Peter Stephan Jungk's novel; using both fact and fiction to peer into Disney's troubled psyche as illness forces him to confront his mortality. Press Reviews"... one of the crowning events of the past year's globe-trotting celebration of Mr. Glass's 75th birthday. The subtle; moody score; at war between its propulsive and serene impulses; felt more than equal in quality to the festive occasion. While criticisms of Mr. Glass's music as cookie-cutter have always been misguided; "The Perfect American" finds him in especially unpredictable form; experimenting with sonorities; textures and pacing. Led by the Glass veteran Dennis Russell Davies with careful attention to both its underlying pulse and its twists of temperament; the opera opens with an ominous; low murmur punctuated by sharp; syncopated percussion snaps. The sound gradually expands through the orchestra and warms into something that; under Mr. Davies; has more gentle swing than the relentless forward motion generally associated with Mr. Glass. " (The New York Times) "Baritone Christopher Purves has captured in Disney the charisma; arrogance and humanity of the man; and it's already a candidate for one of the most important opera performances of the year. He makes racist or anti-Semitic remarks sound not like tirades but like attitudes that were all too common at the time; especially around Los Angeles. One of the points of ""The Perfect American"" is to show us how much times have changed. The rest of the mostly excellent large cast includes David Pittsinger as Roy Disney; Donald Kaasch as Dantine; Janis Kelly as Disney's nurse Hazel George; Marie McLaughlin as his wife; Lillian; and John Easterlin as Warhol. Rosie Lomas made a strong impression in the high-lying parts of the owl-girl Lucy and Josh; the boy in the hospital. And Zachary James had a touch of Daniel Day-Lewis in his Lincoln. Dennis Russell Davies; who has led the premieres of most of Glass' operas and symphonies; once more made sure of tone and detail." (Los Angeles Times) "The score is pleasant; easy to listen to; and masterfully orchestrated. There are plenty outstanding passages which perfectly meets one's expectations… it is one of Glass' very best operas. Phelim McDermott's production... is excellent. Dennis Russell Davies... gave a wholly convincing interpretation...The orchestra of the Teatro Real played along excellently and the performance from the chorus was top notch."

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 15 - 20 working days Based on Irish writer Roddy Doyle's novel and lovingly directed with admirable restraint by the sometimes bombastic Alan Parker, this quirky 1991 tribute to the enduring and universal power of American R&B took some cynical criticism for its reliance on Baby Boomer-era classics such as "Mustang Sally," "Take Me to the River," and "In the Midnight Hour." But that sword cuts two ways: by casting a motley crew of real musicians, including the guts 'n' gravel-voiced young vocalist Andrew Strong, Parker didn't have to do much coaxing to reveal the obvious respect and affection his players have for this music. The material may not be fresh, but the love with which it's played is timeless. --Jerry McCulley Features Summary Based on Irish writer Roddy Doyle's novel and lovingly directed with admirable restraint by the sometimes bombastic Alan Parker, this quirky 1991 tribute to the enduring and universal power of American R&B took some cynical criticism for its reliance on Baby Boomer-era classics such as "Mustang Sally...

An American principal cast lends classic film noir appeal to this stylish, cleverly plotted thriller adapted from a story (and earlier television serial) by Francis Durbridge one of Britain's most successful crime writers and creator of legendary sleuth Paul Temple. Jointly adapted by Ken Hughes and Oscar winner Guy Green, Portrait of Alison is presented here in a brand-new transfer from the original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio. Investigative journalist Lewis Forrester and his female passenger are killed when their car plunges over a cliff in Italy; Lewis leaves behind two brothers portraitist Tim, and pilot Dave. Although the case is closed, Inspector Colby of Scotland Yard does not believe Lewis s death was accidental. And as Tim is hired by the dead girl's father to paint her portrait from a photograph, a chain of mysterious events is set in motion which, for Colby, appear to confirm that Tim himself is a murderer...    

Director Wes Anderson's follow-up to the acclaimed BOTTLE ROCKET is a funny, warmhearted, and extremely sharp American response to the English Angry Young Man films of the 1960s, right down to its British Invasion soundtrack. Newcomer Jason Schwartzman creates a classic protagonist in Max Fischer, a sophomore at Rushmore Academy. He excels at every extracurricular activity in school, from theater to beekeeping. Gradewise, however, he's failing. He has few friends outside school save for wealthy but depressed industrialist Herman Blume (Bill Murray), father of obnoxious twin boys who also attend Rushmore. Enter Rosemary Cross (Olivia Williams), a beautiful young widowed teacher at Rushmore Elementary. While Max is immediately smitten with Miss Cross, she finds comfort in the company of the emotionally frazzled Blume. But Max won't let Blume have Miss Cross without a fight. Anderson and cowriter Owen Wilson have created a script brimming with oddball humor at the surface, but at its core lies just enough realistic pain and disappointment to create an all-too-rare bittersweet edge, striking a subtle balance that few films ever achieve, and finally giving national treasure Bill Murray the chance to shine like never before. As director, Anderson displays his exceptional talents with careful choices in color palette, effective use of slow motion to comedic effect, and, most important, a brilliant selection of offbeat songs that are integral to the story. Easily one of the finest comedies since THE GRADUATE, RUSHMORE is a monument to brilliant filmmaking.
