Description
A teacher with a paranormal gift and a dark past, is forced to her limits when she becomes the target of a gang of teenagers.

Amazon.com essential video

This strange, 1985 experiment by Ridley Scott (Blade Runner) starred the up-and-coming Tom Cruise in a fairy-tale world of dwarfs and unicorns and demons. After the horn of a unicorn is broken, darkness and winter descend upon the world. Cruise's character, helped along by a magic sprite played by David Bennent (The Tin Drum), descends into hell to save paradise. This movie is almost a classic case of art direction gone amok. The somewhat amorphous Cruise doesn't lend much dramatic focus or artistic definition, but the drama between Tim Curry's satanic majesty and Mia Sara's character, who becomes a sort of princess of the netherworld, is pretty captivating. A mixed experience all around that makes one wish it had been more successful. --Tom Keogh

1 out of 5 stars Jerry Goldsmith's soundtrack stinks.......2007-07-04

Want to know why 73% of people who bought this DVD bought the Ultimate version next? Its becasue they (like me) didn't know they were getting the version with the Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack. His soundtrack STINKS! It ruined the entire movie. Not only that but this version has edited out the really cool scenes of Tim Curry in the black light---gone. Don't waste your money on this piece of garbage get the version with the great soundtrack from tangerine dream.

1 out of 5 stars The Music was not the same as original........2007-05-29

The main reason I bought the movie was because of the original music that was in it. They have re-edited the whole movie with another soundtrack making it a totally different movie. It is just not as good a movie as my VHS tape of the original theatrical release. What happened to it?

4 out of 5 stars A Classic Fairy Tale for All.......2007-05-21

Legend comes to DVD in this 2-disk set.The first disk being the director's cut,and the second disk being the U.S theatrical release.This is one of those "pick your poison" things were you either like the original theatrical release or prefer the film the way it was ment to be seen by the director or perhaps you like both?Personally,I despise the U.S theatrical release.The films are more or less the same but the directors cut is a bit longer.What kills the U.S release is the deplorable soundtrack.Its way too 80's and is a real annoyance,I depised it deeply.I prefer the directors cut.The original music score by far fits Legend much better,as do the additional extended scenes.Rob Botton who is noted for making some of the most realistic and best prostectic/mechanical effects really delivers as you can almost believe what you are seeing on screen.The over all art and design is as much a feast for the eyes as is the story line which was written almost as perfect as it could be. This is your "basic" fairy tale formula where good vs. evil and our hero(a very young Tom Cruise before he really was begining to get noticed)is sent on a quest to bring the world of light and dark back into balance instead of letting evil rule the land.Jack is sent to save the last Unicorn and to save the princess (Mia Sara) from eternal doom and damnation.I have always liked this film,even when the U.S release was that was available,but this 2-disk set is a real treat.I only wish that the sound was digitally re-mastered,but we can't have everything wee want,now can we?This is a DVD well worth owning,you do get two films in one plus some good featuretts about the making of the film and how it evolved to what we all see now.Legend is a classic,and there aren't too many films out there that can really claim such status.I highly reccomend this DVD over just the U.S release,good for the whole family(some intense scenes) but nothing too horribly graphic.Make Legend a part of your DVD collection,you can't go wrong.

5 out of 5 stars Love The Goldsmith Score.......2007-05-09

The man was a GENIUS and I much prfer the director's cut version.

3 out of 5 stars Nice trip into the past.......2007-05-08

I had never seen any history behind this overly artistic film, but always enjoyed it for what it was. It was nice to get some insight into the original story ideas, and some of the making of the film. The "deleted scenes" were just that, it didn't help progress the film, in my opinion.

It's just a good fantasy story, with the villian taking the spotlight, though this villian didn't like light at all...

Robin Williams and Annabella Sciorra star in this visually stunning metaphysical tale of life after death. Neurologist Chris and artist Annie had the perfect life until they lost their children in an auto accident; they're just starting to recover when Chris meets an untimely death himself. He's met by a messenger named Albert (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and taken to his own personal afterlife--a freshly drawn world reminiscent of Annie's own artwork, still dripping and wet with paint. Meanwhile a depressed Annie takes her own life, compelling Chris to traverse heaven and hell to save Annie from an eternity of despair.

The multitextured visuals seem to have been created from a lost fairy tale. Heaven recalls the landscape paintings of Thomas Cole and Renaissance architecture complete with floating cherubs, while hell is a massive shipwreck, an upside-down cathedral overgrown with thorns and a sea of groaning faces popping out of the ground (one of those faces is German director Werner Herzog). Williams is the perfect actor to play against the imaginative computer-generated imagery--he himself is a human special effect. But the lack of chemistry between Williams and Sciorra is painfully apparent, and the flashback plot structure flattens the story's impact despite its deeply felt examinations of the heart and the spirit. Still, there's no denying Eugenio Zanetti's triumphant production design and the Oscar-winning special effects, which create a fully formed universe that is at once beautiful, eerie, and a unique example of movie magic. --Shannon Gee

5 out of 5 stars me please.......2007-06-27

Found the item to be in condition that was said Thank you for your prompt delivery.

1 out of 5 stars flat, unoriginal, and over-done.......2007-06-13

This is pretty bad: a guy dies and lives on in some bizarre afterworld, where he rights certain wrongs and gets an idiotically sentimental philosophical perspective on his life and love. Then, of course, he takes a dare and changes the destiny of his great love, etc.

The film totally failed to sweep me into some believable fastasy, but just came off as pretentious and emotionally flaccid. It is a total bore and there is nothing new whatsoever.

It seems that this is not a general opinion, given the other reviews, but this is how I saw iy and I cannot change that if I want to be honest. Not recommended.

5 out of 5 stars One of the Films ever made!.......2007-06-04

This film opens the mind and heart to explore life after death and the very meaning of love. It is totally out of the box and is like nothing else that has been done about life after death. The messages are there and so is the love. This is a film that should be seen at least once - perhaps, several times. It has some worthy issues to think about and may be an enlightening resource to some people.

Robin Williams is at his best with a great script and wonderful and inspiring filming!

5 out of 5 stars Great way.......2007-05-19

Two reliable genres--submarine adventure and the threat of World War III--come together in director (and co-writer) Samuel Fuller's Hell and High Water, a 1954 film that remains surprisingly relevant more than half a century later. When an enormous nuclear explosion is traced to somewhere between the tip of northern Japan and the Arctic Circle, followed by the disappearance of a prominent French atomic scientist (Victor Francen), it's clear that something's up. Did the prof defect to the dark (actually, the Red) side? Was he abducted? As it turns out, he's actually part of a group of scientists, businessmen, and other distinguished gentlemen planning to send a sub to check out the scene and determine the extent of the threat. Enter Capt. Adam Jones (the redoubtable Richard Widmark), who agrees to helm the private, very secret mission for a hefty cash reward; enter also the professor's "assistant" (Bella Darvi), herself a skilled scientist who goes along for the ride, thereby quickening the pulse of every able-bodied sailor on board the sub, especially the captain's.

Hell and High Water was filmed in Technicolor and CinemaScope, as studios tried to induce audiences to abandon their TVs in favor of movie theaters; it also earned an Oscar nomination for its special effects, and considering the relatively primitive state of that art at the time, they're not bad. Fuller does a nice job of depicting the cramped, funky confines of our heroes' craft, a vessel of dubious seaworthiness captured from the Japanese during World War II. The plot, involving the Chinese's dastardly plan to incite a nuclear conflagration and blame the U.S., is preposterous; yet if you substitute North Korea or Iran for China, the notion of a rogue nation with atomic capabilities is no less timely now than then. Fuller largely avoids political flag-waving; his main point lies in a speech delivered (more than once) by the French professor: "Each man has his own reason for living… and his own price for dying." Extras include an interesting biography of Widmark from the A&E show of that same name. --Sam Graham

4 out of 5 stars A fine early cold war submarine movie........2007-05-31

Despite the expected cold war anti-commie propaganda, this is one fine submarine movie. After the end of WWII an American ex-navy submarine commander takes on the task of transporting scientists by submarine up near arctic waters to spy on what the Chinese communists are up to (no good). Of course, the sub is an old surplus Japanese I-Boat (a "sewer pipe" according to the captain) and the crew is a bunch of old hands and misfits. There is a fair amount of action, as the commies don't like the sub's presence, and the movie has an interesting ending. Overall, very enjoyable, but don't expect Run Silent, Run Deep.

    Barney and his pals take a trip to Grandpa's farm and find that a magical egg--which is due to hatch any moment--is missing. As opposed to the studio-bound television show, this feature film has a lot more visual diversity and is a bright, good-looking production. Barney fans will appreciate the broader production scale--even if they don't realize it. --Tom Keogh

    4 out of 5 stars Barney movie is ok.......2007-06-30

    Well I like the show better then the movie. Though if you are really a fan of Barney then you should watch his original such as this one.....Good Day Good Night W/ Pals

    5 out of 5 stars Barney is a blast.......2007-01-03

    Great movie and it came in from Amazon early with no damage. I highly recommend this movie to those young Barney fans.

    5 out of 5 stars Alright for Barney, A kiddie movie worth watching.......2006-07-18

    Barney the Dinosaur. I grew up watching this purple pal and lately as I grow much older than I was, I tend to get relatively disinterested in much of the other PBS broadcasting. But I picked up Barney's Great Adventure on DVD at the Wal-Mart I work in, and discovered that you can still be a big kid, and enjoy the movie with the littler ones you love.

    The story follows three children. Abby and Marcella, two girls rich in imagination and dreams, who love Barney and play with the doll constantly, and Cody, a cynical young boy who is trying to be cool and doesnt automatically believe in Barney.

    During a game of keep away started by Cody, Barney comes to large life thereby starting a chain of events that sends Cody reeling for the adventure he always dreamed of. Cody of course is stalwart in his disbelief of Barney, warning this may upset younger viewers because of the rude things said to Barney.

    A night time conversation between Cody and Barney reveal Cody's need for adventure and the "cool" things. Trying to sway Cody to the perks of imagination, Barney encourages Cody to wish on a star. Well that star turns out to be a Dream Maker egg and it sends Barney and Friends on a wild egg hunt trying to find out what's inside it, as well as rescue it before too late.

    With appearances by BJ and Baby Bop, the movie goes into more of it's more hilarious antics. Finally, when Twinken the Dream Maker hatches from his egg, Abby gets to see her dream more clearly, and Cody apologizes to Barney with an admission that the Purple Dinosaur is cool after all.

    My opinion? Well, the movie is not entirely big budget, and nothing that could contend with Superman Returns or Ice Age 2, or Pixar's Cars. But kids of ALL ages, should appreciate the heart, and the intent of what the movie tries to say to us all. Will I ever continue to watch the show? Maybe, maybe not. But I will watch the movie over and over again.

    And maybe, just maybe, through our own imaginations and determination, we all might make our own dreams come true. That message is what Barney and Friends put forth in the movie. Goes the same for kids and adults. I cant say for sure that every kid will like this movie. I did. And I recommend it for anybody who still believes that they can sing and dance and for one day if nothing else, hang with Barney. I think he's cool.

    As an afterthought. Keep an eye out for performances by two of todays young actors. You might recognize Kyla Pratt from Dr. Dolittle and The Proud Family. And Trevor Morgan can be seen in the Spielberg dino movie(coming full circle are we?) Jurassic Park 3. George Hearn, of Annie fame, is the kids' grandpa.

    5 out of 5 stars Barney is my pal.......2006-07-08

    Barney the purple dinosaur wants you to go placidly amid the noise and waste, And remember what comfort there may be in owning a piece thereof. Avoid quiet and passive persons unless you are in need of sleep. Rotate your tires. Speak glowingly of those greater than yourself, And heed well their advice, even though they be turkeys. Know what to kiss and when. Consider that two wrongs never make a right, But that three lefts do. Wherever possible put people on "HOLD". Be comforted that in the face of all aridity and disillusionment, And despite the changing fortunes of time, There is always a big future in computer maintenance. Remember the Pueblo. Strive at all times to bend, fold, spindle and mutilate. Know yourself. If you need help, call the FBI. Exercise caution in your daily affairs, Especially with those persons closest to you; That lemon on your left for instance. Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls, Would scarcely get your feet wet. Fall not in love therefore; it will stick to your face. Carefully surrender the things of youth: birds, clean air, tuna, Taiwan, And let not the sands of time get in your lunch. For a good time, call 606-4311. Take heart amid the deepening gloom that your dog is finally getting enough cheese; And reflect that whatever fortunes may be your lot, It could only be worse in Sioux City. You are a fluke of the Universe. You have no right to be here, and whether you can hear it or not, The Universe is laughing behind your back. Therefore make peace with your God whatever you conceive him to be, Hairy Thunderer or Cosmic Muffin. With all its hopes, dreams, promises, and urban renewal, The world continues to deteriorate. Give up... but before you do, buy the Barney dvd!

    5 out of 5 stars Good, for Barney!.......2006-04-19

    I am twelve, so it is rather weird for me to say that I really enjoyed this movie! Last autumn my parents got it from the library for my little brother, who is two. I was sure it would be a normal boring Barney movie, so I didn't watch it. Then I took a peek at the movie in the middle, just after they lost the egg, and wathced until the end. The next day I watched from the beginning until where I left off. It is better than anything Barney has done so far! I especially liked it because I was rather depressed at the time, and the themes of the movie were to use your imagination and never give up.

    The movie starts when Abagail, a girl of about eight, her older brother Cody, and Abagail's best friend Marcella, all take a trip to Grandma and Grandpa's farm. Cody is a pessimist and is not looking forward to the trip, so when the two girls try to get him to play pretend with them, he steals their Barney doll and hides it in the shower. Then Barney comes to life! Cody keeps trying to get rid of him or at least show him to their grandparents to prove that he is not real, but nithing works. That night Cody is encouraged by Barney to wish upon a star, so Cody bursts out, "I wish we could have a real adventure this summer! Do things no one else has done before. That would be cool."

    Cody's wish came true in an unexpected way when the star he wishes upon falls from the sky and turns into an egg that Cody finds in his barn the next day. The three kids and Barney take the egg to Mrs. Goldfinch, an eccentric lady who loves birds. After a lot of research, she tells them that it is a Dream Maker and that when all five rings change color they must take it back to the place where Cody first found it, the barn. Just then the egg falls out the window, and the adventure that follows includes a parade, a fancy French restaraunt, a circus, and a balloon launching. In the end Cody learns that imagination is a great thing to have.

    The movie has some wonderful songs, including "Barney's world of imagination," "Imagine," "What's inside it?," "We're gonna find a way," and "You can do anything (from the credits)." For once, the Barney kids were not goody-goody, and did not seem to be reciting their lines in the boring monotone that is on the TV show, but with real expression. Probably the dumbest scene was when the man was driving and cooking at the same time. It is a great movie that people of all ages will enjoy, and it also teaches the lessons of perseverance and imagination without rubbing in morals. Everyone in my family, my little brother, me, even my parents, thought it was really good.

    This strange, 1985 experiment by Ridley Scott (Blade Runner) starred the up-and-coming Tom Cruise in a fairy-tale world of dwarfs and unicorns and demons. After the horn of a unicorn is broken, darkness and winter descend upon the world. Cruise's character, helped along by a magic sprite played by David Bennent (The Tin Drum), descends into hell to save paradise. This movie is almost a classic case of art direction gone amok. The somewhat amorphous Cruise doesn't lend much dramatic focus or artistic definition, but the drama between Tim Curry's satanic majesty and Mia Sara's character, who becomes a sort of princess of the netherworld, is pretty captivating. A mixed experience all around that makes one wish it had been more successful. --Tom Keogh

    Want to know why 73% of people who bought this DVD bought the Ultimate version next? Its becasue they (like me) didn't know they were getting the version with the Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack. His soundtrack STINKS! It ruined the entire movie. Not only that but this version has edited out the really cool scenes of Tim Curry in the black light---gone. Don't waste your money on this piece of garbage get the version with the great soundtrack from tangerine dream.

    The main reason I bought the movie was because of the original music that was in it. They have re-edited the whole movie with another soundtrack making it a totally different movie. It is just not as good a movie as my VHS tape of the original theatrical release. What happened to it?

    Legend comes to DVD in this 2-disk set.The first disk being the director's cut,and the second disk being the U.S theatrical release.This is one of those "pick your poison" things were you either like the original theatrical release or prefer the film the way it was ment to be seen by the director or perhaps you like both?Personally,I despise the U.S theatrical release.The films are more or less the same but the directors cut is a bit longer.What kills the U.S release is the deplorable soundtrack.Its way too 80's and is a real annoyance,I depised it deeply.I prefer the directors cut.The original music score by far fits Legend much better,as do the additional extended scenes.Rob Botton who is noted for making some of the most realistic and best prostectic/mechanical effects really delivers as you can almost believe what you are seeing on screen.The over all art and design is as much a feast for the eyes as is the story line which was written almost as perfect as it could be. This is your "basic" fairy tale formula where good vs. evil and our hero(a very young Tom Cruise before he really was begining to get noticed)is sent on a quest to bring the world of light and dark back into balance instead of letting evil rule the land.Jack is sent to save the last Unicorn and to save the princess (Mia Sara) from eternal doom and damnation.I have always liked this film,even when the U.S release was that was available,but this 2-disk set is a real treat.I only wish that the sound was digitally re-mastered,but we can't have everything wee want,now can we?This is a DVD well worth owning,you do get two films in one plus some good featuretts about the making of the film and how it evolved to what we all see now.Legend is a classic,and there aren't too many films out there that can really claim such status.I highly reccomend this DVD over just the U.S release,good for the whole family(some intense scenes) but nothing too horribly graphic.Make Legend a part of your DVD collection,you can't go wrong.

    5 out of 5 stars Love The Goldsmith Score.......2007-05-09

    The man was a GENIUS and I much prfer the director's cut version.

    3 out of 5 stars Nice trip into the past.......2007-05-08

    I had never seen any history behind this overly artistic film, but always enjoyed it for what it was. It was nice to get some insight into the original story ideas, and some of the making of the film. The "deleted scenes" were just that, it didn't help progress the film, in my opinion.

    It's just a good fantasy story, with the villian taking the spotlight, though this villian didn't like light at all...

    Robin Williams and Annabella Sciorra star in this visually stunning metaphysical tale of life after death. Neurologist Chris and artist Annie had the perfect life until they lost their children in an auto accident; they're just starting to recover when Chris meets an untimely death himself. He's met by a messenger named Albert (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and taken to his own personal afterlife--a freshly drawn world reminiscent of Annie's own artwork, still dripping and wet with paint. Meanwhile a depressed Annie takes her own life, compelling Chris to traverse heaven and hell to save Annie from an eternity of despair.

    The multitextured visuals seem to have been created from a lost fairy tale. Heaven recalls the landscape paintings of Thomas Cole and Renaissance architecture complete with floating cherubs, while hell is a massive shipwreck, an upside-down cathedral overgrown with thorns and a sea of groaning faces popping out of the ground (one of those faces is German director Werner Herzog). Williams is the perfect actor to play against the imaginative computer-generated imagery--he himself is a human special effect. But the lack of chemistry between Williams and Sciorra is painfully apparent, and the flashback plot structure flattens the story's impact despite its deeply felt examinations of the heart and the spirit. Still, there's no denying Eugenio Zanetti's triumphant production design and the Oscar-winning special effects, which create a fully formed universe that is at once beautiful, eerie, and a unique example of movie magic. --Shannon Gee

    1 out of 5 stars flat, unoriginal, and over-done.......2007-06-13

    This is pretty bad: a guy dies and lives on in some bizarre afterworld, where he rights certain wrongs and gets an idiotically sentimental philosophical perspective on his life and love. Then, of course, he takes a dare and changes the destiny of his great love, etc.

    The film totally failed to sweep me into some believable fastasy, but just came off as pretentious and emotionally flaccid. It is a total bore and there is nothing new whatsoever.

    It seems that this is not a general opinion, given the other reviews, but this is how I saw iy and I cannot change that if I want to be honest. Not recommended.

    5 out of 5 stars One of the Films ever made!.......2007-06-04

    This film opens the mind and heart to explore life after death and the very meaning of love. It is totally out of the box and is like nothing else that has been done about life after death. The messages are there and so is the love. This is a film that should be seen at least once - perhaps, several times. It has some worthy issues to think about and may be an enlightening resource to some people.

    Robin Williams is at his best with a great script and wonderful and inspiring filming!

    "It works extremely well or it doesn't work at all," says Deep Purple drummer Ian Paice on this concert DVD, reflecting on DP's 25th anniversary reunion tour. This great-sounding disc (filmed in Birmingham, England, on November 9, 1993) finds the band working extremely well indeed. Legendary lead guitarist Ritchie Blackmore left the band after the tour's European leg, so the Birmingham concert has, in retrospect, the sense of capturing lightning in a bottle, providing (in keyboardist Jon Lord's words) "a wonderful combination of improvisation and discipline." Blackmore is conspicuously absent in the interview clips, but the remaining "Mark II" lineup (vocalist Ian Gillan, bassist Roger Glover, Paice, and Lord) speaks eloquently on the band's behalf, never masking their resentment toward Blackmore's sullen decision to quit. It's no wonder, because this is no withering nostalgia act. With Blackmore in top form (eyes down, emotionless, fully involved), the band is tight and mighty, and despite a few faltering moments (particularly in Gillan's otherwise laudable vocals), this DVD never disappoints.

    Lord's blues-rock wizardry is consistently astounding, and with a set list that spans the band's illustrious history, everyone gets a chance to shine. Gillan can't reach the highest highs like he did in the early '70s, but he never hits a sour note, either. Paice cuts loose with a "Space Truckin'" solo (don't you dare call these guys dinosaurs), and, surprisingly, the show's highlight turns the Rolling Stones' "Paint It Black" into a transcendent jam. So what of their post-Blackmore era with replacement axman Steve Morse? This DVD offers ample proof that DP would thrive, come hell or high water. --Jeff Shannon

    5 out of 5 stars Deep Purple "Come Hell or High Water".......2007-05-09

    Hi I'm 50 years old if your a true Deep Purple fan you will love this dvd even though richie is an nut case the music is A+++++++++++ the band is tight and never miss a lick.

    Daryl

    5 out of 5 stars This is the Deep Purple concert you have always wanted.......2007-03-27

    WOW! That is all I can say initially. Ritchie Blackmore and crew made this concert the best they ever did! If you have ever wanted to see Ritchie do his legendary riffs (he usually hid them from camera shot in the early years concerts) this is the DVD for you. All the guys excelled in this performance. They had it together.

    Interestingly, as this was a "reunion" concert. When the band left the stage, Ritchie exited on one side and the rest left on the other...

    Again, FANTASTIC CONCERT. I encourage you to get it - you will NOT be disappointed.

    5 out of 5 stars The Battle Rages On Stage.......2007-03-10

    I approached this DVD "Come Hell Or High Water" with a certain amount of apprehension after hearing about this Birmingham show and Ian Gillan recently wanting the live album (audio only) not to be released. But let's face it, even the average Deep Purple show is a little special, and to me, this DVD wasn't bad at all. I'll admit that Ritchie Blackmore's antics made it hard at first, but the overall performance still comes across pretty well. Drummer Ian Paice shines in some of the later songs, and the rest of the band (Lord, Glover and Gillan) all try to make up for Ritchie's lack of dedication you might say. Some of Gillan's expressions are a treat, and the overall uniqueness of a Deep Purple happening is captured well on video. Technically it's excellent, nothing too flashy. It's a treat to watch something done by people you know have a feel for Purple's work, which doesn't come off routine looking or full of gimmicks. Overall, this is a pretty good resemblance of the 25th Anniversary tour, just not one of the best moments. The interviews between some of the songs are cleverly done, but after a few viewings I wished I could have passed on them, but no such luck. All things considered, the DVD doesn't make a bad addition to the ever growing Purple memorabilia.

    3 out of 5 stars Hell Came And Its Name Was Blackmore.......2006-09-28

    Only 3 stars for Come Hell or High Water is almost being harsh. But Blackmore's behavior during the concert is so outrageous that I was embarrassed for the band just watching the show. I feel sorry for the fans that actually paid to attend the concert who were probably very excited to see a Deep Purple show where all 5 members participated.

    But really only 4 participated. Those 4 being Ian Gillan, Roger Glover, Ian Paice, and Jon Lord. Those guys must have huddled before the show and said, "let's give these fans a musical performance that they'll never forget." Whether Blackmore was in the huddle with them or not, one thing is for sure, Blackmore agreed to also give the fans an experience that they'll never forget, but the experience that he provided was how to be a complete jackass...not the experience of the guitar performances that he is legend for.

    The back jacket of the DVD reads, "No one who has heard Deep Purple kick off a show with Highway Star will ever forget it...." Well, I sure won't forget how it was done on this DVD. The band comes out on stage, starts the song, but something's missing...Blackmore is missing! The first minute of the song goes by, but there's no Blackmore; there's no guitar playing; only vocals, keys, bass and drums. At first I thought it was a some sort of prestaged thing where Blackmore would appear with much fanfare. Well, he finally does appear where the guitar solo is supposed to come in, but not with much fanfare. Blackmore is clearly pissed about something and is determined to let everyone in the band and audience know it. He walks on stage, saunters over to the amps, grabs a cup of water that is sitting there, flings it through the air, looks at the other guys in the band as if to say, "take-that!", and then he feebly proceeds to play a horrible version of the Highway Star solo. The other guys in the band are visibly exasperated and just roll their eyes.

    After Highway Star, the DVD breaks to a quick video interview with Gillian, Paice, Lord and Glover where they comment on how something wasn't working between them that night at the Birmingham NEC, UK, on November 9, 1993, and that Blackmore, as he was known to often do, acted "like an angry little child when he didn't get his way about something".

    Clearly, Blackmore indeed didn't get his way about something for the recording of this DVD. The tension on stage was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Blackmore was conspicuously absent from the stage and absent from playing throughout the whole show, and that really took away from the performance. Instead of rocking out through the DVD, I'm sitting there the whole time going, geez what a shame. To be fair, things were working with everyone in the band except just one guy. Gillian, Paice, Lord and Glover did indeed play like it was 1972...they were on.

    The song list was terrific. They play:

    1-Highway Star
    2-Black Night
    3-Talk About Love
    4-Twist in the Tale
    5-Perfect Strangers (Blackmore almost looked as if he njoyed being there for this song.)
    6-Beethoven
    7-Knocking at Your Back Door
    8-Anyone's Daughter
    9-Child in Time
    10-Anya
    11-The Battle Rages On
    12-Lazy
    13-Space Truckin'
    14-Woman from Tokyo
    15-Paint It Black
    16-Smoke on the Water.

    Blackmore couldn't wait to get off the stage. He walked right off after Smoke On The Water...exit stage left; the other guys took some bows and exited stage right.

    For a 1993 recording, the picture was above average and the sound was very good. You get a superb Dolby 5.1 mix. But the picture quality was brought down a bit by the lighting choice throughout the show; it was as if consideration the night of the show was not given to the fact that the show would be recorded for DVD. The editing was great; you really got to take in each angle before the shot changed.

    With the short interviews (spliced in between songs instead of as an extra feature which kind of took away from the live performance illusion) the DVD is an even 2 hours long. There were no Blackmore interviews.

    It was great to reminisce and watch a Deep Purple show. The performances were a 5 by Gillian, Paice, Lord and Glover; Blackmore gets a 1. Sound is a 4. Picture is a 3. The long shots of the band in action before changing angle makes up for the choice to put the interviews between songs instead of at the end or as an extra...so the editing is a 3. Hence, 3 stars overall.

    5 out of 5 stars Great for the tension, the interviews, and, oh, yes: the music.......2006-01-16

    I really enjoy this dvd---the tension from Blackmore towards the rest of the band makes for interesting viewing. In addition, the interview segments are quite compelling. That said, the music is top notch, even if Ian Gillan sounds alittle strained at times (especially on Child In Time). Especially recommended for Blackmore and the interviews (to be fair, Gillan sounds better on the cd version of this dvd).

    Product Description

    Shot in coffee shops, cafes, studios and streets of New Orleans four months after Hurricaine Katrina. The interviews empathetically conducted by Pam Bell skillfully reveal the frank feelings, hopes, fears and dreams of residents of New Orleans. A different view of the disaster is presented to contrast the sensationalism of news broadcasts. The voices of seven residents filmed four months after Huricaine Katrina, echo the familiar themes of loss and devastation but something beyond the expected is revealed. Serious questions about the sustainability of the entire nation are raised from a historical perspective. A new way of thinking has been spawned from the power of Katrina; the politician's words ring hollow to the people, the bumbling continues to inflict damage. The story of the storm is bigger than any one broadcast or movie, its power still resonates as it does in the words of seven residents of the Big Easy. The stories of these seven people are but a few in an ocean of suffering. We witness the humor, hope, faith and strength sustaining them.

    5 out of 5 stars A "Must See" Katrina documentary.......2007-03-03

    Wow! These folks did a great job: I'm guessing that it's not easy to find a collection of interesting and soulful people from a variety of walks of life to interview, and the film-makers certainly found them. The deft cross cutting of ongoing interviews with the scenes of the devastation of New Orleans very effectively underscored the breadth and depth of the Katrina disaster, too. More than anything else, the film successfully puts a human face on what it will take to deal with "Katrina's" aftermath. It's just a really outstanding documentary film of a powerful event that people throughout the country should see.

    3 out of 5 stars Hell and High Water.......2007-02-02

    This video is great to show the scenes of particularly the lakeview and lakefornt area which has been neglected in all other videos and reports. The one painter, historian rambles endlessly. Interview questions we generally not answered directly.

    5 out of 5 stars Historical, Educational, Emotional, Spiritual.......2006-10-04

    We need more independent film makers like Jim wills and Pam Bell who tell the real story instead of sensationalizing it for the media. Shot four months after hurricane Katrina, Hell and High Water gives an true oral history in unscripted interviews with seven people who experienced the loss, frustration, aftermath, and on-going challenge of life in a destroyed city. It's more than a narrative about how the storm affected their lives. It raises larger questions critical to us all about the future safety of our country and our government response to disaster. The seven voices are honest and from the heart, giving us a far deeper understanding of what really happened. Viewing this remarkable work, we learn aspects of the storm and life itself not covered anywhere else.
