HOW TO LOSE FRIENDS AND ALIENATE PEOP - DVD MovieThe movie tie-in edition of Toby Young's bestselling memoir of self-sabotage at Vanity Fair.

With a major motion picture of How to Lose Friends and Alienate People about to be released (starring Simon Pegg, Kirsten Dunst, and Jeff Bridges), there has never been a better time to savor this laugh-out-loud memoir from everyone's favorite "professional failurist." In his dishy assault on New York's A-list, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People, Toby Young lands a job at Vanity Fair--and proceeds to work his way down Manhattan's food chain.You'll Never Eat Lunch in This Town Again meets The Bonfire of the Vanities, as told by...a male Bridget Jones? And it all really happe! ned.
In 1995 high-flying British journalist Toby Young left London for New York to become a contributing editor at Vanity Fair. Other Brits had taken Manhattan--Alistair Cooke, Tina Brown, Anna Wintour--so why couldn't he?

But things didn't quite go according to plan. Within the space of two years he was fired from Vanity Fair, banned from the most fashionable bar in the city, and couldn't get a date for love or money. Even the local AA group wanted nothing to do with him.

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People is Toby Young's hilarious and best-selling account of the five years he spent looking for love in all the wrong places and steadily working his way down the New York food chain, from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex toys. A seditious attack on the culture of celebrity from inside the belly of the beast, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People is also a "nastily funny read."

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People is Toby Young's hilarious and best-selling account of the five years he spent looking for love in all the wrong places and steadily working his way down the New York food chain, from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex toys. A seditious attack on the culture of celebrity from inside the belly of the beast, How to Lose Fr! iends and Alienate People is also a "nastily funny read." (USA Today)Boasting a brand new previously unreleased song by platinum-selling Mercury Records artist Duffy as its opening track, "Enough Love," the original motion picture soundtrack album for How To Lose Friends & Alienate People will arrive in the digital marketplace on September 30th and at physical retail outlets on October 14th via Mercury Records. In between, on Friday October 3rd, How To Lose Friends & Alienate People will open in theaters nationwide, distrib­uted by MGM Pictures.

In addition to Duffy, the soundtrack album will include "For Reasons Unknown" by the Killers (a track from their album Sam's Town). The soundtrack is a potpourri of U.S., UK and Euro selections by Dusty Springfield, the Kinks, Motörhead, Joey Ramone, Scissor Sisters, Electrovamp, MGMT, and others. There also several tracks by noted film score composer David Arnold of James Bond fame (Tomorrow Never Dies, Die Anot! her Day, Casino Royale). The soundtrack finale is legendary It! alian fi lm composer Nino Rota's classic theme from 1960's La Dolce Vita. (Please see soundtrack album sequence below.)

One of the most eagerly awaited comedies of the fall season, the film stars Simon Pegg (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) and is based on the best­selling memoir written by Toby Young. It tells the often hilarious story of a bumbling British celebrity journalist's move from London to New York to become a contributing editor at a highly prestigious magazine.

How To Lose Friends & Alienate People also stars Kirsten Dunst (Spider-Man, Eternal Sunshine of a Spot­less Mind, Bring It On), Danny Huston (The Constant Gardener, 30 Days of Night), Gillian Anderson (The X-Files, The Last King of Scotland), Megan Fox (Trans­formers), Max Minghella (Hippie Hippie Shake), and Jeff Bridges (The Big Lebowski, Sea­bis­cuit). The movie was directed by Oscar® nominated Robert Weide (Curb Your Enthusiasm), and produced by Oscar® nominated Stephen Woolley (The Crying Gam! e) and Elizabeth Karlsen.UK Import Blu-Ray/Region All pressing. Please note the special features are in the PAL format and not viewable on US PS3/standard Blu-Ray players. The main feature is viewable on all players however.How to Lose Friends and Alienate People may just be the first true British film--and a splendid one at that--to be set on American soil. The fearless actor Simon Pegg plays Sidney Young, a Fleet Street hatchet writer tapped to come to the States to join the literati, and glitterati, at a big, fat, glossy magazine--every resemblance of which to Vanity Fair is strictly intentional. Sidney is possibly the most annoying man in the Western world, tilting at nonexistent windmills. His character calls to mind many of the hapless charmers played by Hugh Grant--but Pegg, without Grant's raffish good looks, comes across as simply hapless. Which is perfect casting, since Sidney is supposed to be enormously aggravating, especially when he first lands in New Y! ork. In his first few days in the city, Sidney puts off the fi! rst maga zine colleague he met (Kirsten Dunst, in a top-flight comic turn), wears a wildly inappropriate T-shirt on his first day of work, spritzes fast food onto the designer white suit of a relative of the publisher, and picks up a tranny hooker. And things go downhill from there. On his first magazine assignment, Sidney, checking captions for a photo page, calls a powerful publicist. "Is he the fat one?" Sidney asks the publicist about one of her clients. Silence. "Well, is he the one with the wonky eye, then?" Pegg is a scream as Sidney, playing quite a different role than his starring one in Shaun of the Dead. Dunst is delicate but steely, and her comedic timing, under the deft direction of Robert B. Weide (Curb Your Enthusiasm), is spot on. Great supporting work, too, by editor Jeff Bridges, whose enthrallment to the power elite, and silver mane, channel Graydon Carter; by Gillian Anderson, as a take-no-prisoners publicist; and by Megan Fox, a starlet cast as a bo! som-heaving Mother Teresa. Sidney, and the film, will win you over, with a lot of laughter along the way.--A.T. HurleyBrand New Product

Few times in the history of Hollywood has a film been released with the scope and daring of EVITA! Now, experience this landmark achievement as entertainment megastar Madonna -- in the role of a lifetime -- joins Antonio Banderas (ASSASSINS, DESPERADO) for the year's most talked about motion picture event! Directed by award-winning filmmaker Alan Parker (MISSISSIPPI BURNING), EVITA is the riveting true-life story of Eva Peron (MADONNA), who rose above childhood poverty and a scandalous past to achie! ve unimaginable fortune and fame. Despite widespread controversy, her passion changed a nation forever! Winner of the coveted Academy Award(R) for Best Song (1996) and 3 Golden Globe Awards (Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Song) -- critics nationwide hailed EVITA as a triumphant must-see masterpiece -- and so will you!After more than a decade of false starts and several potential directors, the popular Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice musical finally made it to the big screen with Alan Parker (The Commitments) at the helm and Madonna in the coveted title role of Argentina's first lady, Eva Perón. A triumph of production design, costuming, cinematography, and epic-scale pageantry, the film follows the rise of Eva Perón to the level of supreme social and political celebrity in the 1940s. Like Madonna, Perón was a material girl (she was only 33 when she died); she was instrumental in the political success of her husband, Juan Perón (Jonathan Pryce). But Eva was al! so a supremely tragic figure whose life was essentially hollow! at its core despite the lavish benefits of her nearly goddess-like status. The film has a similar quality--it's visually astonishing but emotionally distant, and benefits greatly from the singing commentary of Ché (Antonio Banderas), who serves as a passionate chorus to guide the viewer through the elaborate parade of history. --Jeff Shannon

Jorge is a morbidly shy Ecuadorian dishwasher toiling away in a shabby diner in Queens, New York. From his solitary kitchen corner, Jorge quietly attempts to forge a bond with Amy, the newly hired Chinese waitress, but even though she tries to reciprocate, the gulf that separates them may be too large. On the job he is continually tormented by a coworker, and at home, in his Harlem apartment, under the psychological control of his domineering "roommate," he battles his inner demons. Choking Man captures the feeling of! claustrophobia and almost literal asphyxiation newcomers to America experience as they struggle to find a place and purpose in this strange land.As we talked, ate and visited a scary thing happened! It has not happened to me before.
I choked on something! My breathing was cut off! Well I took the Red Cross classes and I know just what to do right? I quickly learned that there is a vast difference between knowing what to do and doing what is supposed to be done. I know exactly what to do for others and I know what I should do for myself but as I was choking I calmly got up from the table and walked away...that was when I almost died...

    As in all his books, Heckler draws from personal experience: training his horse, cultivating presence in aikido dojos, consulting with business executives, raising children. A masterful and encompassing book, Holding the Center develops from the fulcrum of the self in the natural world. Many of Heckler’s lessons arise from his life as a householder and father. Community is a larger familyâ€"we make alliances to “take care of what matters to us.” But, as Heckler teaches, that takes listening to others with an open heart, and learning what the needs of others are.The world can! be a sanctuary, if we find a balance between instinct and choice. Richard Strozzi Heckler sounds an important call about the interplay between power and generosity in these subtle and luminous essays.Designed with three compartments, The North Faces Heckler daypack offers a large main compartment (holds most 15 inch laptops), a smaller secondary compartment with dividers, and a front compartment that can stash your tunes. We know it's hard to function without music, and we wouldn't want you to take one unharmonized step outside without it. Stitched foam back panel and shoulder straps foster comfortable toting, and a crisscross bungee cord on pack's face lets you stash a raincoat, or trail map with easy on-the-go access.

    In his mesmerizing new film, GRIZZLY MAN, acclaimed director Werner Herzog explores the life and death of amateur grizzly bear expert and wildlife preservationist Timothy Treadwell. Treadwell lived unarmed among the bears for thirteen summers, and filmed his adventures in the wild during his final five seasons. In October 2003, Treadwell’s remains, along with those of his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, were discovered near their campsite in Alaska’s Katmai National Park and Reserve. They had been mauled and devoured by a grizzly, the first known victims of a bear attack in the paGrizzly Man could easily have been sensational and exploitative, but in the hands of Werner Herzog, it becomes something extraordinary. Herzog was granted exclusive access to over 100 hours of video shot by amateur naturalist, w! ildlife advocate and troubled loner Timothy Treadwell, who spent 13 summers in Alaska's Katmai National Park, where he grew to know and love the grizzly bears that lived there. He was also killed by one of them, in October 2003, along with his girlfriend Amie Huguenard, and that seemingly inevitable fate informs every minute of Herzog's riveting combination of Treadwell's video with his own expert filmmaking and unique vision of nature and man. Whereas Treadwell was a naïve nature-lover and social outcast whose sanity was slowly slipping away, Herzog is a pragmatic mythologist who views nature primarily in terms of "chaos, hostility, and murder," and the disparity of their vision results in a magnetic attraction that makes the sum of Grizzly Man greater than its parts. We come to admire the dreamer, the idealist, the failed actor and recovered alcoholic man-child that was Treadwell, and we equally admire the seeker of truth and wisdom that is Herzog. They belong tog! ether, in some world beyond our world, where visionaries join ! forces t o create life after death. --Jeff ShannonGrizzly Man could easily have been sensational and exploitative, but in the hands of Werner Herzog, it becomes something extraordinary.

Pieced together mainly from Treadwell's own video footage, this fascinating documentary goes deep into the wilderness of one man's mind to uncover how he spent his final days.
