Fruits Basket - The Complete Series
$69.98
I was so excited to hear that fruits basket was finally made into a tv show. The tv series did not disappoint, it was very true to the books and captured the same magical feel as the books. The voices for ALL of the characters were spot on (particularly Jerry Jewell, the voice of Kyo Sohma). Even the music (written by Jun Abe and Seiji Muto) was suprisingly good for an anime cartoon. The only major disappoint in the series was the ending. The show just sort of ended in the middle of nowhere. The way they ended it also contradicts parts in the later books of the manga series. Although I am thrilled that they made Frutis Basket into a tv series, they should have waited until the whole manga series was written, because they ended the show on volume 6 of the manga series. However, overall, I think most viewers who have read the books will love the TV series and will rate it as highly as I have.

Monsieur Hulot's Holiday
$3.99
A classic Tati. The subtitles are hardly necessary as the humor is always visual and the dialogue is very limited. Tati maintains a delicate balance between the outrageously funny and the subtle comedy. A great talent all around.

Similarly to "Jour de Fete", the humor is ageless even though the movie shows its age. One almost regrets, in this age of internet browsing, email connections and lightning-fast communications that the very archaic conditions that create the absurd scenes--witness the station fiasco--have actually gone away.
All in all, a great laugh.
