ISBN-13: 978-0-7921-6308-4, ISBN: 0-7921-6308-7

"Auf Grund der Tatsache, dass Frank McCourts Pulitzer-Preis-gekrönter Bestseller Die Asche meiner Mutter von Millionen von Lesern begeistert aufgenommen wurde, war es vielleicht unvermeidlich, dass sich Alan Parkers Filmversion als ein wenig enttäuschend erweisen würde. McCourts Buch war mit sprachlichen Finessen und detailreichen Beobachtungen gesegnet, die sich nicht unbedingt für eine Interpretation auf der Leinwand eigneten. Parkers ..."

"The year is 1932 and Tony and Brenda Last (James Wilby and Kristin Scott Thomas), a devoted and attractive couple with one son, John Andrew, appear to live an idyllic life in the huge Victorian Gothic house which is the symbol of Tony's family pride. One weekend they inadvertently play host to John Beaver (Rupert Graves), an idle young socialite. It is the chance arrival of this penniless scrounger which irrevocably shatters the gentle ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-7928-5507-1, ISBN: 0-7928-5507-8

"After the release of Withnail & I, British writer-director Bruce Robinson continued his satirical assault on British culture with this fiendishly funny rant, the title of which can be taken figuratively and literally as an object lesson in the art of consumer manipulation. Nobody dupes consumers better than Dennis Bagley (Richard E. Grant); his genius in crafting seductive ad campaigns has earned him a country estate, countless awards, ..."






Withnail and I
(The Criterion Collection)
by Richard E. Grant, Richard Griffiths, Ralph Brown, Michael Elphick, Paul Mcgann, Peter Hannan, Bruce Robinson, David Wimbury, Denis O'brien, George Harrison, Lawrence Kirstein, Paul M. Heller, Daragh O'malley, directed by Bruce Robinson

"The finest cult film known to humanity! Camden Town, the end of the sixties. Two struggling, unemployed actors decide some respite is in order and so depart their miserable flat for a week in the Lake District one that will involve rain, booze, minimal supplies, a randy bull and an even randier Uncle Monty. Based on the real-life experiences of former actor turned writer/director Bruce Robinson, WITHNAIL and I has become one of Britis ..."






Angela's Ashes
[VHS]
by Emily Watson, Robert Carlyle, Joe Breen, Ciaran Owens, Michael Legge, Adam Schroeder, David Brown, David Wimbury, Frank Mccourt, Laura Jones, Alan Parker, directed by Alan Parker
Vhs Tape, Published 2000 by Paramount
Color, Dolby, Special Edition, Ntsc
ISBN-13: 978-0-7921-6970-3, ISBN: 0-7921-6970-0

"Because Frank McCourt's bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela's Ashes was dearly embraced by millions of readers, it was perhaps inevitable that Alan Parker's film version would prove somewhat disappointing. McCourt's book is blessed with subtleties of language and detailed observation that do not easily lend themselves to screen interpretation, and Parker's film suffers from an overly literal, reverently somber approach tha ..."






Jennifer 8

ISBN-13: 978-0-7921-6475-3, ISBN: 0-7921-6475-X

"Written and directed by Bruce Robinson (Withnail and I), this fast-moving potboiler finds its creator getting about as far from Withnail's fine wines and London and Lake District settings as it's possible to get, and into the world of bloody homicides, narrative red herrings and emotionally damaged policemen. John Berlin (Andy Garcia) is a big-city cop and, yes, that means he drinks a lot of coffee and has a terrible personal life (in t ..."

"A second look reveals some exit-wound-size holes in the plot, but there's nothing second-rate about the performances or the pacing of this serial-killer whodunit written and directed by Bruce Robinson (Withnail and I, The Killing Fields). Andy Garcia plays a cop whose failed marriage and recent spell with the bottle has brought him upstate from L.A to live near his half-sister (Kathy Baker) and one-time partner (Lance Henriksen). But h ..."

"Kevin Spacey (American Beauty) plays David Gale, a brilliant but hard-drinking anti-death penalty crusader on death row for a rape and murder that he claims he didn't commit. The victim of the crime is Gale's close friend and anti-death penalty colleague (Laura Linney, You Can Count On Me), so Gale argues that he's been set up to discredit the cause. Committed journalist Bitsey Bloom (Kate Winslet, Titanic) takes it upon herself to ..."

"Kevin Spacey (American Beauty) spielt David Gale, einen brillianten, wenn auch schwer trinkenden Aktivisten, der sich dem Kampf gegen die Todesstrafe verschrieben hat und wegen angeblicher Vergewaltigung und Mord im Gefängnis seine Hinrichtung erwartet. Da das Opfer des Verbrechens Gales enge Freundin und Mitstreiterin (Laura Linney, You Can Count On Me) ist, scheint für ihn der Fall klar: jemand hat ihn hereingelegt, um die gemeinsame ..."

"An irresistible, comic drama from director Alan Parker (Evita, Mississippi Burning), overflowing and alive with passion, humor, and music, The Commitments showcases some old R&B standards in a new light.

ISBN-13: , ISBN: 

"As enjoyable now as it was when it was originally released at the start of the 90s, Alan Parker’s The Commitments is the tale of an Irish soul band, from start through to very messy finish. There are several reasons why it works so well. The first is a corking script by Roddy Doyle (who wrote the book the film is based on) in conjunction with British sitcom legends Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais (Dad’s Army, among many other credits). ..."

ISBN-13: , ISBN: 

"A corrosively funny, semiautobiographical account by writer-director Bruce Robinson (How to Get Ahead in Advertising) about a couple of destitute roommates, young actors living in drunken squalor in 1969, the twilight days of swingin' London. Withnail (the astounding Richard E. Grant in a definitive performance) is a kind of depraved, modern-day Oscar Wilde, but without the money or the manners. The "I" of the title is the younger and m ..."
