About this product:
I made the mistake of reading the book before watching this movie. I believe I am one of Maya Angelou's biggest fans; however, this movie failed to touch the main "senses" of her writing.

About this product:
Are animals closer to humans on an emotional level than generally has been believed? The many scientists, researchers, wildlife photographers, and other animal experts interviewed in this Discovery Channel video answer with a resounding yes. They make their case in this 93-minute documentary, narrated by actress Sigourney Weaver, with stories of despondent dogs, grieving chimps, and lab rats who laugh when tickled. The first half focuses on happy bonds between mother and child, siblings, and animals and humans. The second half delves into the darker subjects of sadness and grief, offering astounding assertions such as elephants secrete a tearlike substance when upset and search dogs finding only corpses in the Oklahoma City bombing case needed treatment for depression. While the focus is on mammals, mollusks get some air time in the form of octopuses that appear to change color according to their situation. Backing up observations with brain imaging and genetic testing, the scientists--and this film--make a compelling view for any animal lover. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Peanuts: Why, Charlie Brown, Why? [VHS]
$19.98

About this product:
Charles Schultz and his animators were always interested in take Charlie Brown characters and put them in storylines that could be taken seriously or deal with serious subjects. This was one of them, and one of the most succesful. It deals with cancer and leukemia, and never gets too dark or too cartoony. The end result is something both children and adults can learn from.

I remember when this first came out - I was probably 10 years old, and my grandfather was diagnosed with cancer. It was a scary moment for me, and I could probably see some of myself in Linus when he goes to visit Janis in the hospital. I also remember Linus' words to Charlie Brown nearly echoed what was ringing in my heart: "Why?"

I also have to say Linus gets some decent character development in this. Usually the nerdy one with the blanket firmly in hand and thumb genetically planted in mouth, the boy gets a coming-of-age epiphany throug Janis' leukemia. He not only seems to dump the blanket after he gets closer to Janis, but he stands up for her when she is picked on by a school bully.

If you're a Charlie Brown fan or you want more than goofball cartoons for your kids to watch, this is a good animated feature for your family...or even for yourself.

DVD
Band of Brothers
$43.99

About this product:
An impressively rigorous, unsentimental, and harrowing look at combat during World War II, Band of Brothers follows a company of airborne infantry--Easy Company--from boot camp through the end of the war. The brutality of training takes the audience by increments to the even greater brutality of the war; Easy Company took part in some of the most difficult battles, including the D-Day invasion of Normandy, the failed invasion of Holland, and the Battle of the Bulge, as well as the liberation of a concentration camp and the capture of Hitler's Eagle's Nest. But what makes these episodes work is not their historical sweep but their emphasis on riveting details (such as the rattle of a plane as the paratroopers wait to leap, or a flower in the buttonhole of a German soldier) and procedures (from military tactics to the workings of bureaucratic hierarchies). The scope of this miniseries (10 episodes, plus an actual documentary filled with interviews with surviving veterans) allows not only a thoroughness impossible in a two-hour movie, but also captures the wide range of responses to the stress and trauma of war--fear, cynicism, cruelty, compassion, and all-encompassing confusion. The result is a realism that makes both simplistic judgments and jingoistic enthusiasm impossible; the things these soldiers had to do are both terrible and understandable, and the psychological price they paid is made clear. The writing, directing, and acting are superb throughout. The cast is largely unknown, emphasizing the team of actors as a whole unit, much like the regiment; Damian Lewis and Ron Livingston play the central roles of two officers with grit and intelligence. Band of Brothers turns a vast historical event into a series of potent personal experiences; it's a deeply engrossing and affecting accomplishment. --Bret Fetzer
