Sondheim At The Movies: Songs From The Screen (Studio Cast Re-recordings)
$16.98
Sondheim's little-known work for the big and small screen get presented in this enjoyable compilation. Fans of Sondheim's stage work might be extremely surprised to find the master trying his hand at several pop-flavored tunes. Gary Beach and Liz Callaway do a magnificent job with the four songs from "Evening Primrose" (and is my preference over Mandy Patinkin's over-hysterical rendition with Bernadette Peters), with particular beauty found in the stunning duet "When?" Sondheim even tries the cheesy disco thing, with "It Takes All Kinds", cut from "The Birdcage". A more thrilling piece of ear candy has never been heard. Although the movie version of "Glamorous Life" can be heard on one or two other compilations and the movie soundtrack, this is one of the best.I wish the album was truly comprehensive (tracks which have gotten more exposure, such as "Sooner or Later" "Can That Boy Foxtrot" and "Water Under the Bridge" are omitted), but the gems it contains more than compensates. An important album in any Sondheim fan's collection

When Zachary Beaver Came to Town
$6.99
I originally purchased this video to open a discussion of baptism in a church class. I ended up enjoying the video for a lot of differing reasons.

The focus of the movie involves the meaning of friendship and an understanding of what it means to be different.

In the midst of one summer, three boys undergo trauma and change together, learning a lot about life in the process, and perhaps without realizing it, they also learn a great deal about friendship.

I purchased this video at the same time as Her Majesty and felt both were similar in theme, although this one would be more likely to be enjoyable to the younger generation in the U.S.

I especially appreciated the fact that there were no simple answers given in the film, I even found the ending a bit unexpected.
