Paris, the city of light and love, plays host to this romantic comedy of unexpected complexity and a pervading humanity, which examines the damage that too much kindness can sometimes cause. Pierre Salvadori directs an outstanding cast, with two-time Cesar winner Daniel Auteuil (THE CLOSET, GIRL ON THE BRIDGE) as Antoine, a maitre d` at an upscale brasserie where he quietly runs the show. His altruism doesn`t end at work, however, and on his way through the park to meet his girlfriend, Antoine encounters a man about to take his own life. Poised at the end of a rope and perched on a suitcase, Louis (Jose Garcia, TROUBLE EVERYDAY, JET SET) is suicidal over the loss of his girlfriend Blanche (Sandrine Kiberlain). Antoine steps in and saves the man`s life, and both will live to regret it, as Antoine is unexpectedly guilty for preventing this tortured man`s demise. Antoine is determined to make his charge happy again, but finding him a place to live, a job, and friendship is not enough to put the life back into Louis, so Antoine seeks out the one woman who could end Louis`s heartache. Things get complicated as an attraction grows between Blanche and Antoine, and Louis comes to see Antoine as his rival.APRES VOUS contains some uproarious slapstick moments, such as a distressed Louis`s disastrous run-in with a waiter mid-flambi, and a dissolute Antoine, drunk on the job and punctuating his sentences with a live lobster he`s holding. But it`s the universal themes of love and friendship that make the film resonate, with Auteuil`s hangdog likability and Garcia`s wide-eyed, perpetually lost look generating a chemistry that drives both the humor and the emotion of the action. Kiberlain rounds out the cast, possessed of an ethereal beauty and playing Blanche with understated, wry sensibility.

Shy Kenji is a Japanese librarian in Bangkok who lives within a neatly organized world and fantasizes about committing suicide, but gets interrupted every time he attempts to end his life. While at work, he becomes obsessed with a beautiful girl he spots through the bookshelves. Later, while attempting to jump off a bridge, he watches her die when she is hit by a car. Kenji attempts to comfort the girl's sister, Noi, but eventually returns home, where he is visited by his loutish brother and a Yakuza-linked associate. A scuffle between these visitors results in their deaths. Scared and confused, Kenji retreats to Noi's messy home, which he systematically cleans while they get to know each other and help each other through painful issues in their lives.Tragic and blackly comic with elements of gangster cinema and toilet humor, LAST LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE is a touching work that refuses easy categorization. Pen-ek Ratanaruang's film boldly takes its time to unfold, allowing viewers to savor Christopher Doyles's (IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE) lush visuals. With Kenji, Asano Tadanobu has created a protagonist who says more with his silences than most characters do with dialogue. Japanese film fans will also enjoy director Takashi Miike's raucous cameo as a Yakuza boss.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Surround Sound 5.1 EnglishAdditional Release Material: Commentary Interviews with Cast and Crew Behind the Scenes Theatrical Trailer PreviewsDVD Rom Features: Weblinks

Long heralded as one of the most repulsively violent film series ever created, Satoru Ogura's controversial, extreme GUINEA PIG films were created to push graphic horror fans to the very limit of their tolerance for gore. This DVD contains two tales. In MERMAID IN A MANHOLE, an artist who has recently lost his wife finds a diseased and dying mermaid in a sewer. He brings her home and tries to help her. Though he is only able to watch her slowly die, she encourages him to use her body in the creation of his art. Based on an actual Tokyo police case, HE NEVER DIES looks at an investigation into a case of extreme suicide, in which a man appears to have survived an extraordinarily long time into the destruction of his own body. Be warned--GUINEA PIG contains much stronger violence than the average view is accustomed to...DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull ScreenAudio: Dolby Digital Stereo - JapaneseInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection

Seijun Suzuki, the legendary Japanese director probably best known for the cult hit BRANDED TO KILL, returns with this movie about a league of killers of hire. Something of a sequel to BRANDED TO KILL, the film stars Makiko Esumi as a killer named Miyuki Minazuki but known as Stray Cat the number three assassin in Japan's professional killer guild. As in its predecessor, number three is contacted by the guild and ordered to kill number one. Knowing that if she succeeds she will become number one, Miyuki embarks on a difficult and dangerous mission to kill the elusive number one. Told in Suzuki's trademark style that blends a fractured narrative with lurid and heavily stylized action sequences, PISTOL OPERA is another brilliant work from a great director.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus
