Inside The Actors Studio: Icons
Inside The Actors Studio: Dave
Chappelle
 For the past decade, Inside The Actors Studio and its host, James Lipton, have offered an outlet for the
mightiest of the silver screen. Two new DVDs capture some of the finest
interviews. Icons features Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Barbra Streisand and Clint Eastwood on three DVDs, while Dave Chappelle dishes on his own disc. Both sets include previously
unaired interview segments.
 That Girl – Season One and Season Two
That Marlo Thomas was simply
irresistible. What with the independent spirit, understanding beau and, well,
great hair and wardrobe, how could anyone resist? Now the groundbreaking show,
which first aired in 1966, is available on two 5-DVD box sets. Don’t miss the
flip, the falls nor the foibles, not to mention all the bonus material. |
The Discerning
Wit
 Lenny Bruce – Let The
Buyer Beware
Lenny Bruce was both lauded and shunned in his day. While deeply
introspective and insightful, he also pushed the boundaries of social standards
with what was deemed appropriate language and thought. Let The Buyer Beware culls together four CDs of live performance, interviews
and even wire taps. This is Lenny Bruce uncensored, unedited and unapologetic! |

Enthusiast
