La Forza Del Destino (DVD)
Verdi`s masterful opera is performed here at St.Petersburg`s Mariinsky Theatre, where it premiered in 1862. Staged in its original version, this LA FORZA DEL DESTINO is very special indeed, and gets suitably magnificent performances out of stars Galina Gorchakova and Nikolai Putilin.

Classic Albums: Lou Reed - Transformer (DVD)
Lou Reed`s TRANSFORMER, his second album after the breakup of the Velvet Underground, has garnered a reputation as one of the best albums of the 1970s, and for good reason. A cohesive album whose more obscure tracks such as Andy`s Chest and Goodnight Ladies hold up well against popular classics like Satellite of Love and Walk on the Wild Side, TRANSFORMER easily ranks with BERLIN and ROCK AND ROLL ANIMAL as one of Reed`s most impressive post-VU accomplishments. This documentary takes a track by track look at the making of the record with both Mr. Reed and his engineer Ken Scott poring over the original multi-tracks for the album. Additionally, there is archival footage of the Velvet Underground, an interview with the Eurythmics` Dave Stewart and a discussion with bassist Herbie Flowers about the origins of the famous bassline for Walk on the Wild Side.

Ron Howards epic tale tells the story of two Irish immigrants quest for land during the 1890s Oklahoma land rush. Tom Cruise stars as Joseph Donnelly, an ambitious young farmer in western Ireland. When a local protest against wealthy landlord Daniel Christie (Robert Prosky) results in the death of his father, Joseph seeks revenge. But his attempt at vengeance is thwarted by Shannon Christie (Nicole Kidman), the landlord`s high-spirited and headstrong daughter, who stabs Joseph with a pitchfork. While convalescing at the Christies` manor, Joseph is propositioned by Shannon, who asks him to travel with her to America--where she is determined to acquire some of the free land being given away in the Oklahoma Territory. Arriving in Boston, Joseph acts as protective brother to Shannon in the foreign city streets as they struggle to earn the money to travel out west.
