Jerzy Skolimowski's
 The Lightship $14.98 Mostly I agree with the points in Cricket and Crestwood's quite negative reviews, but still found it entertaining and would rate it a bit higher.The Duvall character was crazy enough to keep you guessing. Actually he sort of reminded me of Ledger as Joker in the Batman film. Which came first? I found it quite satisfactory for one watching but would be unlikely to watch it again. Okay for an evening as a suspense/adventure film. More interesting than most. But like most, once the characters have played themselves out and there are no more mysteries, the film is done. No truly memorable moments. The depth of the characters is not all that deep to go back and ponder another time. All in all an average decent film. ![Hands Up (Rece Do Gory) [VHS]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/4150G98ACKL._SL160_.jpg) Hands Up (Rece Do Gory) [VHS] $39.95 A legendary film, banned for over a decade in Poland.
