Business is Business (DVD)
Dutch auteur Paul Verhoeven first major feature, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS, is a casual look into the lurid lives of two Amsterdam prostitutes, Greta and Nell. Greta is the proverbial hooker with a heart of gold, and Nell is her buxom partner, and together the two turn tricks and perform kinky stunts for the kooks who have enough money. However, the two are tiring of their lives, and a chance to begin anew presents itself when Nell finally takes Greta`s advice to leave her abusive husband. Soon, both Greta and Nell are dating men who provide a respite from the chaos of their profession. Based on the writings of Albert Mol, Verhoeven`s film certainly has no shortage of sex, but its bawdy humor and unexpected warmth are what sets it apart from the director`s 1990s output.NR"

Nosferatu - The Vampyre (DVD)
Approaching the legendary German classic 1922 film NOSFERATU: EIN SYMPHONIE DES GRAUENS by F.W. Murnau with his own unique sensibilities, Werner Herzog establishes a link between himself and the classic days of German cinema and in the process crafts a lush adaptation as well as a classic in its own right. Stark, symbolic cinematography and intensely stylized performances create what Herzog refers to as a different plane of reality, injecting the age-old tale of Count Dracula with a modern sense of mysticism, desire, and wonder.
Frequent Herzog collaborator Klaus Kinski portrays the Dracula character with a silent intensity, tingeing the vampires inhuman monstrosity with a deep sense of pathos and longing. Completing a stellar international cast are Bruno Ganz (a regular in the films of Wim Wenders) and French film star Isabelle Adjani, both giving subtle yet compelling performances as the formerly happy couple who fall prey to Draculas lust for life and love. From the opening image of rows of openmouthed mummies and the repeated motif of a bat in slow-motion flight to beautiful scenic shots of European mountains and beaches, NOSFERATU is a visually stunning film, presenting visual tableaus taken directly from the original as well as those of Herzogs invention. The extreme stylization of the film recalls Herzogs similarly hypnotic and haunting film HEART OF GLASS--creating a wholly original film, that despite its differences maintains a strict and loving faithfulness to the original.PG"
