All About Eve
An unforgettable, acerbic look behind the scenes of New York theater, ALL ABOUT EVE depicts the glory days, even as it reveals it's denizens' naked ambition as they stand always-in-the-ready to topple the current talent and step into the limelight. Bette Davis mesmerizes as Margo Channing, leading dame of the New York stage until she is pushed aside by a fresh-faced fan who becomes her understudy, the duplicitous Eve (Anne Baxter). Eve's humble background and eager innocence fools all while she subtly digs in her claws, tearing Margo from her friends and colleagues as she desperately grasps her chance for stardom. Director Joseph L. Mankiewicz. Starring Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm, Marilyn Monroe and Gregory Ratoff. Special Features: 2-Disc Set, Pan & Scan 1.33, Audio: Mono - English, Spanish and French / Stereo - English. Run time: 138 minutes. Year of Release: 1950.- Shop: odax

Test
Set in the free-spirited San Francisco of 1985, Chris Mason Johnson's Test lovingly portrays this exciting and harrowing era as young Frankie (dancer Scott Marlowe in a breakout acting debut) confronts the challenges of being an understudy in a modern dance company where he's taunted to "dance like a man!" Frankie embarks on a budding relationship with hunky Todd (Matthew Risch, HBO's "Looking"), a veteran dancer in the same company and the bad boy to Frankie's naiveté. As Frankie and Todd's friendship deepens, they navigate a world of risk - it's the early years of the epidemic - but also a world of hope, humor, visual beauty and musical relief. The captivating dance sequences were especially choreographed for the film by acclaimed U.S. choreographer Sidra Bell. The film's vibrant soundtrack includes work by '80s icons Jimmy Somerville (Bronski Beat), Klaus Nomi, Romeo Void, Laurie Anderson, Martha and the Muffins, Cocteau Twins and Sylvester.- Shop: odax

Chiapaneca
KONETIUK - NAMMY Nominated poet/songwriter/producer Marco Capelli Frucht has played 40 states and two Provinces including AZ, Colo., NM, Ont., the Carolinas, Dakotas & of course closer to home in CT/NY/RI. This hunter/gatherer likes classical & folk mostly, but also digs on punk, pop & parody music. Used to play bass in a 3-piece Christian Metal band called Peace On Earth (POE) so the occasional weird influence you'll hear is probably just loose eardrums. 'If you think the music you hear here is eclectic, you should hear what I do when I'm playing out in the streets!' he once told someone in a mezzanine where he was playing classical guitar before nine showings of Phantom Of The Opera's Bus & Truck group. What he didn't know at the time was he was telling this to Sarah Brightman's Broadway understudy. She went on to lead both Broadway and touring productions. Marco currently plays full time in the summer at an amusement park, and hibernates every fall, winter and spring. The song 'Frybread' (Track 2, 2:39) has been nominated for a NAMMY (Native American Music Award) and is prenominated for an ISMA (Indian Summer Music Award). Marco and his career are nominated for a Whalie Award (New London, Konetiuk's local mini grammys) in the Best Solo Singer/Songwriter category. Shouts and Gr33tz to Snark Tuners, Zinky amps and the only new guitar purchases anymore are Navatone and Godin. Also, I wish to shout out the members of Sledge Grits Band, Keiko, Ella, Mimi and Bo-Pah!- Shop: odax

Zen Roses
Warren Kimmel always gives us something to think about. His music offers us a unique, intimate look into the heart and mind of a thoughtful, intelligent soul able to find the wisdom in our lighter moments and the humor in our darker ones. Warren is a New York based guitarist and singer-songwriter who has written and played music since he was 9 years old. He has played and written with a number of groups and artists including Verb, The Molly Magoonis Band, Bag One, and Lauren Echo. In 2003 he collaborated with David Spritzer to compose the soundtrack for 'The Understudy,' a short film produced by Aunt Agony Films for the Midnight Madness Film Festival. In March 2006, he released his highly anticipated debut album, Zen Roses. Zen Roses showcases Warren's signature blend of insightful lyrics and memorable melodies wonderfully joined with the full sound of a band of talented musicians. The album also represents his first experience with mixing and co-producing his own record. In his own words: 'I wanted this record to be a showcase for songs that I've written over the past several years but never performed with a band. As a solo performer I have to admit that I didn't enjoy banging out the songs on an acoustic guitar while being unable to reproduce all of the parts I heard in my head. It's really satisfying to hear songs with all of the parts I envisioned.' One thing that is so revitalizing about Warren as a musician and songwriter is his deep appreciation for music and what it can mean for people. 'The thing I enjoy most when performing is that I get a chance to bring people together and have them connect with each other. I believe that music is a communal and collaborative art, and it's very fulfilling to be able to share that art with other musicians and with an audience.' This is evident on Zen Roses and when seeing Kimmel's dynamic live performances. Zen Roses includes Ivan "Funkboy" Bodley on bass, Rich Mercurio on drums, Vito Pandolfo on percussion and backing vocals, and Billy Davis and Roger Ortega on backing vocals. Guest musician Michel Kunz plays lead guitar on "Hard Being Me."- Shop: odax
