It's the War of 1812, and Captain Jim Marshall (Mark Stevens) is chosen to sail one of America's few naval ships, the Concord, to France and bring back a donation of gold for the war effort. Scheming former British captain Ben Waldridge (Patrick Knowles) and his men are aboard as part of Jim's crew, planning to mutiny and reroute the gold to England. When Waldridge brings an old girlfriend (Angela Lansbury) back with him on the return trip, however, it seems he might have other plans, like grabbing the gold, the girl, and high-tailing it out of there. It's up to Captain Marshall to make sure the bullion gets back to the States, as the fate of the young nation hangs in the balance. Edward Dmytryk (who would later direct the more famous CAINE MUTINY) was just back from being blacklisted when he tackled this Univeral programmer for the King Brothers, and he nicely interweaves naval action and human drama. The beautiful cinematography is courtesy of Ernest Lazlo.DVD Features:Region 1Super Jewel caseAudio: Dolby Digital - EnglishInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Access Trivia QuizText/Photo Galleries: Biography

In his first film shot in the US, Japanese director Takeshi Kitano stars as Aniki, a stoic yakuza (the Japanese version of the Mafia) who heads to Los Angeles after his clan loses a mob war. Unable to speak English, he still manages to take control of his little brother's small-time gang of drug dealers and quickly moves them up the criminal ladder by impassively blasting all their higher-ups and imparting an Eastern sense of honor to the new family. Between the ritual suicides, tortures, self-mutilations, and blood-soaked gun battles, Aniki forms a special bond with black gang member Denny (Omar Epps), who teaches him some English slang in exchange for guidance. As with Kitano's previous films such as FIREWORKS, VIOLENT COP, and SONATINE, an overall sense of Zen stillness contrasts with sudden macho eruptions into violence. The film takes a uniquely Japanese look at the male psyche, which makes it nicely comparable to the works of Takeshi's American counterparts like Peckinpah, Tarantino, and Abel Ferrara. Offbeat and strangely subdued, BROTHER still delivers all the desired gangster goods and should make new Takeshi fans out of anyone who has seen SCARFACE or THE GODFATHER.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.85Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 - English Dolby Digital 2.0 - EnglishInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection
