Brenda Vaccaro, Elliott Gould, Hal Holbrook, James Brolin, Karen Black, Sam WaterstonOriginally produced by Shout Studios in 1977.This pulse-pounding conspiracy thriller takes aim at the ultimate cover-up: a faked Mars landing.

Simpson) are whisked away to a secret location, where they learn the shocking truth—NASA’s mission is all smoke and mirrors, designed to save the agency’s crumbling reputation. Forced to play along, the astronauts fake the landing while a relentless journalist (Elliott Gould) starts sniffing around the cracks in the story. What follows is a gripping chase through a desert of lies, where betrayal lurks behind every corner and the stakes are sky-high. Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Rumble fish [videorecording] / by Claybourne, Doug,film producer.; Coppola, Francis Ford,1939-film director.; Dillon, Matt,actor.; Lane, Diane,actor.; Rourke, Mickey,actor.; Criterion Collection (Firm),film distributor.;
Music, Stewart Copeland.Matt Dillon, Mickey Rourke, Diane Lane.The second of Francis Ford Coppola's films based on the popular juvenile novels of S.E. Hinton (the first being The Outsiders), Rumble Fish split critics into opposite camps: those who admired the film for its heavily stylized indulgence, and those who hated it for the very same reason. Whatever the response, it's clearly the work of a maverick director who isn't afraid to push the limits of his innovative talent. Filmed almost entirely in black and white with an occasional dash of color for symbolic effect, this tale of alienated youth centers on gang leader Rusty James (Matt Dillon) and his band of punk pals. Rusty's got a girlfriend (Diane Lane), an older brother named Motorcycle Boy (Mickey Rourke), and a drunken father (Dennis Hopper) who've all given up trying to straighten him out. He's best at making trouble, and he pursues that skill with an enthusiastic flair that eventually catches up with him. But it's not the whacked-out story here that matters--it's the uninhibited verve of Coppola's visual approach, which includes everything from time-lapse clouds to the kind of smoky streets and alleyways that could only exist in the movies. The supporting cast includes a host of fresh faces who went on to thriving careers, including Nicolas Cage, Christopher Penn, Vincent Spano, Laurence Fishburne, and musician Tom Waits.Canadian Home Video Rating: 14A.MPAA rating: R.DVD ; widescreen presentation ; Dolby Digital 2.0.

But there's a little-known footnote to the crisis: six Americans escaped. And a midlevel agent named Antonio Mendez devised an ingenious yet incredibly risky plan to rescue them. Armed with foreign film visas, Mendez and an unlikely team of CIA agents and Hollywood insiders traveled to Tehran under the guise of scouting locations for a fake film called Argo. While pretending to find the perfect scenery and backdrops, the team succeeded in contacting the escapees and smuggling them out of Iran without a single shot being fired.Canadian Home Video Rating: 14A.Blu-ray disc (requires Blu-ray player for playback); widescreen (2.40:1) presentation; DTS HD 5.1 surround.DVD, widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital.
