Fritz Lang - Epic Collection (DVD)
SPIES follows the machinations of a wheelchair-bound master criminal, the great Haghi, as he dictates orders to his minions from his headquarters deep in the belly of the city. When Haghi sends forth agent Sonja to seduce and trick secret agent 236, Tremaine, the two unexpectedly fall in love. Haghi is enraged that they are endangering his plot to take over the world, while his minions square off against police and secret service, and attempt to steal a secret treaty. Many of the standard conventions of spy thrillers find their genesis in SPIES, including femme fatales, the crippled arch criminal and a last minute countdown to destruction.WOMAN IN THE MOON: Lang used a scenario by his then wife Thea von Harbou about a trip to the moon to continue his early investigations into science and technology. When scientist Manfeldt finally gets the chance to go to the moon and prove his theory of the existence of lunar gold deposits, he is disappointed to discover that he must travel with various strangers. They include Frieda and Hans--a newly wed couple, a scheming financier named Turner, Wolf Helius--the engineer in charge of the expedition, and Gustav--a young castaway. When the crew actually discovers gold in the lunar caverns, the greedy Turner faces off against the bewildered professor, and violence ensues. The human struggles with
greed, jealousy and idealism are played out against a stunning backdrop of rockets and white lunar landscapes, and the tender moments between the protagonists are some of the most touching in any of Lang's oeuvre.DIE NIBELUNGEN SAGA: Collected here are both parts of Fritz Lang's spectacular and groundbreaking film version of the Nibelungenlied, the Norse and German myth, that are known separately as SIEGFRIED and KRIEMHILD'S REVENGE. Complete with never before seen footage, re-translated intertitles, the original 1924 score, and a total of 135 minutes added to both films, due in part to the correction of the film's projecti

Edison - The Invention of the Movies (DVD)
Truly an event to be celebrated by cinephiles, this collection of early silent film, dating from 1891 and 1918, provides a look at the origins of cinema that is unparalleled in its comprehensiveness. During this time, the Edison Company was responsible for both technological advancements in cinematic equipment, and for creative innovation within the medium; directors working under Edison's auspices were responsible for many early advancements in the filmic language. Thus, included in this selection of over 140 films, is Edwin S. Porter's THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY (1903, 10 min.), which displays the first use of parallel editing and the first pan shot. Other films by Porter are a wealth of information and insight into how and why film developed as it did. Porter's work paved the way for D.W. Griffith's revolutionary BIRTH OF A NATION, also present in the collection. The vast array of films included, presented in chronological order, exemplify many milestones of cinema that have been unavailable or rarely seen until now. This includes some early stop motion animation, outrageous special effects, and a hand-painted 1906 film (THREE AMERICAN BEAUTIES). The shorts span a wide variety of genres, from comedy (HOW A FRENCH NOBLEMAN FOUND A WIFE...) to educational films (THE WONDERS OF MAGNETISM); fantasy (JACK AND THE BEANSTALK) to documentary (THE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE CARE OF INFANTS); and westerns (AT BEAR TRACK GULCH) to crime drama (THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY). Commentary from scholars of silent film and Edison himself is interspersed among the films, providing insightful historical context and artistic exposition. The experts include Charles Musser, Yale University Professor of Film and American Studies and the world's leading expert on Edison films; Eileen Bowser, Curator Emerita at The Museum of Modern Art; and Paul Israel, Director and editor of the Edison Papers; among many others.

An American family adjusts to social change in this two-time Emmy winning series. Amidst a backdrop of American Bandstand, 1960s era pop music, and other cultural icons, the characters in this story grapple with many issues of the day, including the death of a president, Civil Rights, and women's emancipation.
