After several successful action-adventure films in Hong Kong, Ringo Lam made UNDECLARED WAR, his first film in English with an international cast. It stars Olivia Hussey (Franco Zeffirelli's ROMEO AND JULIET) as Rebecca, a member of the international terrorist group the World Liberation Army. Starting in Poland with the murder of an American diplomat and his family, the action quickly moves to Hong Kong, where CIA agent Gary Redner (Peter Lapis), the U.S. ambassador (David Hedison), and local policeman Inspector Bong (Danny Lee) team up to stop Rebecca and her partner, Hannibal (Vernon G. Wells). Although Redner and Bong take an instant dislike to each other in typical buddy film fashion,
they are great friends by the end. Lee had previously appeared on the other side of the law as a criminal gang member in Lam's CITY ON FIRE. Like that film, there is no lack of action, gunfire, and car chases as Bong and Redner try to stop the terrorists from their planned attack on an international business conference.DVD Features:Region 0 (All Regions)Keep CaseLetterboxedAudio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - Chinese/ Cantonese Dolby Digital 5.1 - Chinese/ MandarinAdditional Release Material: TrailersInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive MenusText/ Photo Galleries: Filmographies

Quitting (DVD) Quitting (DVD) » Quitting (DVD)

Zhang Yang, the award-winning director of 1999's SHOWER, recreates the powerful story of Chinese actor Jia Hongsheng in the fascinating and thought-provoking QUITTING. Jia was a modestly successful breakout Chinese star in the late 1980s and early 1990s, appearing in such films as SUMMER EXPECTATIONS and SILVER SNAKE MURDERS as well as the award-winning and controversial FROZEN. In 1992, Jia starred in a stage production of KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN, directed by Zhang, and was introduced to heroin--which he embraced wholeheartedly. The dementia that stemmed from his addiction resulted in a closed-off existence in which there was room only for the Beatles song Let It Be and little else.QUITTING is not a documentary; Zhang brings back all the principals, who play themselves. Thus, when Jia's parents retire early in order to move in with their son (and daughter) to take care of him, the pain and frustration is being relived for the screen scene by scene, making for an uncomfortable yet remarkable and original format in which to watch this family struggle to save a child yet again. This story of isolation and drugs is also a metaphor for what occurred during the cultural revolution in the 1980s and 1990s as Chinese youth experienced more of what the West has to offer, with all its bright high points and dark low valleys.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.78Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - ChineseAdditional Release Material: TrailersInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection

The Story of Women (DVD) The Story of Women (DVD) » The Story of Women (DVD)

Claude Chabrol traces the sordid and sad trajectory of Nazi-occupied France during World War II through the tragic, tumble-down journey of one woman. Isabelle Hupert plays Marie, a young woman with two children who has carved out a life for herself during her husbands absence, barely managing to feed her children, gleaning some happiness from jukeboxes and girlfriends, and by performing and occasional amateur abortion for her neighbors. When her shell-shocked husband returns from the labor camps, Marie takes matters into her own hands and turns her skills into a booming abortion business, boarding prostitute friends on the side and taking a collaborator for a lover. While Chabrol details Marie's descent into amorality with brutal honesty, he nonetheless contextualizes her sins and shows her truly as a victim of the chaos of France's confused response to Nazi occupation.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.66Audio: Mono - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.
