High Fidelity $1.79 Transplanted from England to the not-so-mean streets of Chicago, the screen adaptation of Nick Hornby’s cult-classic novel High Fidelity emerges unscathed from its Americanization, idiosyncrasies intact, thanks to John Cusack’s inimitable charm and a nimble, nifty screenplay (cowritten by Cusack). Early-thirtysomething Rob Gordon (Cusack) is a slacker who owns a vintage record shop, a massive coll…

4 Way Street (Jewel Box) $16.86 This is one of those albums where you’ll want to cherry-pick favorites. Recorded live when the supergroup was at its commercial zenith, it’s sloppy in spots where precision is called for. And the hyperbolic counterculture rants sound a bit silly these days (Bellows Stills: “Jesus Christ was the first nonviolent revolutionary! Ah, dig it, dig it!”). On the other hand, the electric jams are enlivene…

The Adventures of Huck Finn $2.99 Huckleberry Finn’s age has been scaled down in this 1993 Disney film in order to accommodate star Elijah Wood’s young years at the time. But that’s not the only concession mark twain’s great American novel must make to Disney revisionism. Wood’s Huck, as adapted for the screen by writer-director Stephen Sommers, is all rascal and only nominally a philosopher, which takes a lot of the soul out of …

The Return of Jafar [VHS] $2.19 This 1994, direct-to-video follow-up to Aladdin (it’s actually four episodes of the Aladdin television program, back-to-back) is a wash-out compared to the Robin Williams-driven animation feature that kicked off the franchise. The story partially involves the villainous Jafar’s parrot–Iago–trying to leave his master and befriend Aladdin and Jasmine. Williams is nowhere to be found, unfortunately…

Seeking help, they enter the town of Gatlin, whose under-20 residents have butchered their par…

Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum edition) $15.95 Disney’s 1959 animated effort was the studio’s most ambitious to date, a widescreen spectacle boasting a gorgeous waltz-filled score adapting Tchaikovsky. In the 14th century, the malevolent Maleficent (not dissimilar to the wicked Queen in Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs taunts a king that his infant Aurora will fatally prick her finger on a spinning wheel before sundown on her 16th birt…

Stephen King’s It $3.96 Seven childhood friends return to the New England town where they grew up in order to stop an evil force that threatened them years earlier and has returned to renew its murderous ways.

Julie & Julia $5.45 Meryl Streep delivers a superb performance as culinary icon Julia Child in this quirky seriocomedy that chronicles her time in Paris in the mid-20th century.
