A pure-gold Savant favorite, Sir Richard Attenborough's first feature as director is a stylized pacifist epic of the insane tragedy of WW1, told through contemporary songs, with the irreverent lyrics given them by the soldiers themselves. And one will not want to miss a young Maggie Smith's music hall performance -- luring young conscripts to doom in the trenches. It's the strangest pacifist film ever, done in high style. Oh! What a Lovely War DVD The Warner Archive Collection 1969 / Color / 2:35 enhanced widescreen / 144 min. / Street Date September 22, 2015 / available through the WBshop / 16.99 Starring: Too many to name, see below.

Being a princess is not always an easy way out of a problem.
If there’s anything modern about The Princess and the Frog, that would be it. Touted as Disney’s big return to hand-drawn animation, it’s the first of the Disney Princess line that doesn’t have its main character escape hardship by finding true love in a rich suitor. Though the two main characters spend most of the movie as a couple of frogs (a fact that might raise a few eyebrows, considering how much has been made about this being Disney's first "black princess") going on an enchanted adventure, it's in human form that they really make lasting impressions.
Our heroine Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) is certainly no princess. She’s a woman whose idea of happily ever after is buying a fixer-upper factory to turn into her very own restaurant. Her prince, a flirt...

If you are a fan of Syfy's Battlestar Galactica, you probably know that some scenes of the series were filmed in and around the extensive forests of western British Columbia. What you may not realise, however, is that two of the show's stars - Tricia Helfer (Number Six) and Tahmoh Penikett ('Helo') - have lent their talents to a new indie docu-drama that is intended to raise awareness of issues associated with cutting down some of these forests.
The film, called The Green Chain, was written, directed and co-produced by Vancouver-born Mark Leiren-Young. His previous credits include scripts for episodes of the series The Collector, Blood Ties and Psi Factor. He has also written a book, 'Never Shoot a Stampede Queen', articles for 'Time Magazine', 'Maclean's' and 'The Utne Reader', and stage plays.
True to his roots, Leiren-Young focuses The Green Chain on the debate in British Columbia, but it...
