I`m All Right, Jack (DVD)
Though it may be distinguished by its virtuosic comedic performances from Terry-Thomas and Peter Sellers, I`M ALL RIGHT, JACK, John Boulting`s sly satire of class struggle in postwar England, is a comic gem in its own right. The film stars Ian Carmichael as Stanley Windrush, a recent Oxford graduate and old money aristocrat who decides to work for a living in early 1950s England. Deciding to keep his background a secret, Stanley takes a menial position at his uncle`s armaments factory, where his incompetence arouses the suspicion of his fellow laborers and the sympathy of the loony Works Committee boss (Sellers). Soon, the good-hearted Stanley finds himself in the middle of the complex class struggle between management and labor and the unwitting patsy in his uncle`s crooked scheme.NR"

25th Hour (DVD)
Spike Lee`s bracing adaptation of David Benioff`s novel is a vibrant, vital motion picture. Edward Norton plays Monty Brogan, a harmless drug dealer who has 24 hours of freedom before serving a seven-year jail sentence. Nervous, confused, and terrified, Monty turns to his closest friends for support: Frank Slattery (Barry Pepper), a cocky stock broker who resents Monty for throwing his life away; Jakob Elinsky (Philip Seymour Hoffman), a hapless high school teacher who is attracted to one of his students (Anna Paquin); and Monty`s heartbroken father (Brian Cox), who blames himself for Monty`s demise. And then there is Naturelle (Rosario Dawson), Monty`s beautiful girlfriend, who may or may not be guilty of ratting Monty out to the cops. Monty spends his last day trying to ignore the inevitability of time, but everyone and everything only reminds him of the bleak, unpromising days that lay ahead.
With 25TH HOUR, Spike Lee revisits the fiery territory of 1989`s DO THE RIGHT THING. Frustrated by Hollywood`s cold shoulder toward the tragedy of September 11th, Lee attacks the subject with fervor, resulting in a film that brilliantly captures the mood and atmosphere in New York City in the months following the attack. The film features stellar contributions from composer Terence Blanchard, cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto, and Lee`s ensemble cast.R"
