Basquiat [VHS] $6.00 In his writing and directorial debut, Julian Schnabel’s film Basquiat depicts the life of graffiti artist Jean-Michel Basquiat, a.k.a. SAMO, and the turbulent period from the late 1970s to 1988, as his life was catapulted into fame and notoriety.

Annie Hall [VHS] $3.50 Annie Hall is one of the truest, most bittersweet romances on film. In it, Allen plays a thinly disguised version of himself: Alvy Singer, a successful–if neurotic–television comedian living in Manhattan. Annie (the wholesomely luminous Dianne Keaton) is a Midwestern transplant who dabbles in photography and sings in small clubs. When the two meet, the sparks are immediate–if repressed. Alone i… |

Who Am I This Time? [VHS] $4.99 Few actors invoking the title of their film as a line of dialogue have had quite the shattering effect that Christopher Walken does in this 1982, hour-long film by Jonathan Demme.

Julius Caesar $8.32 Fierce general. Skilled orator. Savvy politician. This is Julius Caesar, one of the world’s greatest leaders and ruler of the Roman Empire.

Christopher Walken: Movie Top Ten $17.95 With his gravity defying hair, nonchalant voice, ambiguous smile and reptilian-like features, there is an otherworldly alienness about Christopher Walken. It is this troubling combination of distinctive genetics, chilly sexuality and twitching mannerisms that has turned him into a genuine, cult movie star. From the suicidal Vietnam Vet in The Deer Hunter, to the unhinged Sicilian hood interrog… |
