Breakfast At Tiffanys (Widescreen) - (VHS) A truly winning romance gleaned from Truman Capote’s innocent story of Holly Golightly a young woman determined to marry a millionaire. George Peppard and Audrey Hepburn are delightful as two fortune-seekers sharing the same building - it’s easy to see that if one of them were already rich they’d be perfect for each other. The chemistry says it all. However there are ambitions to be dealt with before the happy ending. Hepburn is captivating as the heroine playing Holly with the distinctive manner that has defied imitation. Both Peppard and Hepburn appear too delicious to be real; and that is precisely what we love about the film. For romance with style look no further. The names Audrey Hepburn and Holly Golightly have become synonymous since this dazzling romantic comedy was translated to screen from Truman Capote’s best-selling novella. Holly is a deliciously eccentric New York City playgirl determined to marry a Brazillian millionaire. George Peppard plays her next-door neighbour a writer who is ‘sponsored’ by wealthy Patricia Neal. Guessing who’s the right man for Holly is easy. Seeing just how that romance blossoms is one of the enduring delights of this gem-like treat. Running Time: 110 mins approx Certificate: 15 ... Gladiator (VHS) Epic drama. A loyal Roman General refuses to pledge allegiance to the ruthless new Emperor. Escaping execution himself he discovers that his family was not so lucky. Reduced to slavery and forced into gladiatorial combat he discovers he might be able to get close enough to his enemy to exact revenge. Russell Crowe stars. Proof for those who doubted it that they can indeed make them like they used to. Ridley Scott’s Gladiator is a big film in every respect. Filling the screen with it’s spectacular visuals its heroic (and indeed villainous) characters and its pounding score. Epic is a word that has been so often misused since Hollywood’s penchant for big brash (often biblical) cinema floundered and died in the early sixties. However it is a word which fits Gladiator like a glove. The epic has returned and it appears it was sorely missed. In a performance that easily hoisted him into the Hollywood A-List Russell Crowe is excellent as the titular Roman. Maximus is a decent chap – a general adored by his troops and feared by his enemies. He is in fact the polar opposite of Commodus (Joaquin Pheonix) the son of ageing Emperor Marcus Aurelius (Richard Harris). Commodus is as weak and amoral as Maximus is tough and decent. Knowing he’ll be dead soon Aurelius favours Maximus as his successor which does not please his son at all leading to the old man’s (slightly) premature demise. As Commodus crowns himself Emperor Maximus finds that both he and his family are in serious danger. The resulting plot is not particularly surprising. The good guys are good the bad guys are most certainly not. Performances here of course are crucial and with Crowe’s charisma and Pheonix’s smarm they make surprisingly well matched opponents. The action scenes – of which there are plenty – are brilliantly handled especially once the story moves into the (convincingly awesome) Coliseum itself. The film looks and sounds fantastic thanks to some excellent special effects and a striking soundtrack from Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerard. Armed with all the right ingredients Gladiator works a treat. At one point Maximus standing knee deep in defeated foes yells to the baying crowd “Are you not entertained?”. Damn right we are. ... CUBE (DVD) - (WS) Six strangers wake up to find themselves trapped in a deadly maze without knowing who put them there or why. Effective sci-fi thriller made on a shoestring budget. ...

Treasured One The second brilliant book in a brand new fantasy series set in an entirely new world from bestselling authors David and Leigh Eddings. They are called the Dreamers. They look like sleeping children. They are in fact Gods. Despite the literally earth-shattering climax of The Elder Gods Dahlaine still does not regret having brought the Dreamers into the world of the Elder Gods. He only wishes he'd thought harder about the consequences. His sister Aracia fears the whole world will collapse in on itself if the Dreamers should all wake up and realize where they are. It's bad enough with them dreaming the future but at least it's a future. Dahlain is pretty sure he's safe from an 'I-told-you-so' from Aracia. The Dreamers give the Elder Gods a chance in the battle against the vicious Ruler of the Wasteland. Then spies of very short stature start cropping up in Veltan's bucolic and peaceful domain. They look like people or maybe they all look like the same person but they are more sinister than that. Fortunately Dahlaine is soon on the scene riding his thunderbolt. This second story of the sibling Gods is the story of the first god Dahlaine and his child Yaltar who is so dangerous ... .
