Just about the best Hollywood musical of all time, wrote Pauline Kael about SINGIN' IN THE RAIN.After years of honing his skills on the vaudeville stage, hoofer Don Lockwood (Gene Kelly) has finally reached the top and become a swashbuckling star of the silent silver screen. Then the self-satisfied celebrity has his confidence shattered when ingenue Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds) dismisses film actors as shadows without substance. After getting over the insult, he falls hard for her--much to the consternation of his costar, the sexy, selfish Lina Lamont (Jean Hagen), who wants Don all to herself.But Don has career troubles too. The wild popularity of THE JAZZ SINGER has studios scrambling to change from silent films to talkies, and Lina's shrill voice and Don's stiff acting left the preview audience roaring with laughter. There's only one way to save the movie and their careers: turn THE DUELLING CAVALIER into a musical, with Kathy secretly dubbing in Lina's lines and songs. But can they hide the truth from Lina?DVD Features:Region 1 encodingKeep caseInteractive Menus

Relapse Records' follow-up to their first RECOLLECTION DVD, which provided a look back over the label's history with very rare videos from their artists; this collection once again delivers hard, high-energy music videos from the heavyweights of the genre. Mastodon plays a compelling blend of metal, hardcore, and grind that defies categorization, while the Bay Area sextet Neurosis makes their presence felt with their particular brand of emotional, complex doom metal that is by turns psychedelic, claustrophobic, and almost orchestral. The self-described ithyphallic metal played by South Carolinians Nile is a brutal, dynamic whirlwind of driving force, while Burnt by the Sun offers a meticulously crafted, nuanced metal/hardcore that is as brutal as it is virtuoso. All 17 of these videos provide a rare look at the bands and the label that have shaped the sound of heavy music today, many of which have never before been available.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Interactive Features: Graphic Menu ScreensTracks: 1.March of the Fire Ants - Mastodon 2.Sarcophagus - Nile 3.Stones from the Sky - Neurosis 4.Forlani - Burnt by the Sun 5.One Shot, One Kill - Dying Fetus 6.Sculpt the Lives - Burst 7.The Descent - Today is the Day 8.My Relationship - Disrhythmia 9.One - Amorphis 10.From Sacrifice to Survival - Skinless 11.Synthetically Revived - Suffocation' 12.Solarburn - Alchemist 13.The Tide - Neurosis 14.Her (Inamorata) - The End 15.Redundant - Cephalic Carnage 16.Skin Strip - Vidnaobmana 17.My Kantele (Acoustic Reprise) - Amorphis
