Film 1: ‘A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy’
Alison Krauss & Union Station Live DVD
Recorded in Louisville on two nights in the spring of 2002, finds bluegrass's most celebrated crossover band at the top of its game. Krauss's warm, feathery vocals, capable of conveying complex emotions in a single note, appear more full-bodied than in studio recordings, yet lose none of their sensual appeal or dramatic tension. The ensemble deftly blends bluegrass with jazz, rock, and folk. (quotes from Alanna Nashon Amazon.com)

Film 1: ‘A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy’
A Midsummer Night's Sex Comedy DVD
Amazing, a Woody Allen film set in a rural setting. Actually, the film was mostly shot about 27 miles north and east of New York City in a lovely natural setting. Music is credited to Felix Mendelssohn (Felix Mendelssohn is regarded by classical music aficionados and critics alike, as one of the most prolific and gifted composers the world has ever known. Even those who could not name any of his works have heard it, as his "Wedding March" from "A Midsummer Night's Dream", which has accompanied many a bride and groom down the aisle in the recessional). Director Woody Allen actually has deer bounding in time to Mendelssohn! The plot is loosely borrowed from Ingmar Bergman's 'Smiles of a Summer Night' (who probably adapted the plot from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream") and is about 3 couples spending a weekend together in an idyllic setting and all being emotionally and sexually entangled with each other. A lovely light comedy.

2:‘The World's Fastest Indian’
The World's Fastest Indian HD-DVD.
Sir Anthony Hopkins considers this his finest performance. Based on the true story of New Zealander Burt Munro's lifelong quest to go fast on a 1920 Indian Scout Motorcycle. Burt Munro still holds the record for the fastest speed ever on a motorcyle of less than 1,000 ccs displacement. A wonderful film, a wonderful performance by Hopkins and truly exceptional video quality on this film.
