To celebrate the release of Woody Allen’s MIDNIGHT IN PARIS out on DVD on February 6th, HeyUGuys are offering you the chance to win a Classics DVD bundle including MIDNIGHT IN PARIS as well as Casablanca, Gone with the Wind, Dr Zhivago and Blind Side! MIDNIGHT IN PARIS has recently achieved critical acclaim by scooping a Golden Globe for Best Screenplay as well as four Academy Award nominations and one BAFTA nomination!

MIDNIGHT IN PARIS is Woody Allen’s valentine to the City of Light, which he considers equal to New York as the great city of the world.  “Of course I’m partial to New York because I was born there and grew up there,” he says, “but if I didn’t live in New York, Paris is the place I would live.”   The film is the second time Allen has filmed there, after a small bit of EVERYONE SAYS I LOVE YOU.  “I get great enjoyment out of presenting Paris to the cinema audience the way I see it,” he says. “Just as with New York, where I present it one way, and other directors present it other ways, somebody else could come and shoot Paris in a completely different way.   I want to present it my way, projecting my own feelings about it.”

Witness a romantic comedy that is a breath of fresh air as ‘Gil’; (Owen Wilson; Marley and Me, Wedding Crashers), a talented Hollywood screenwriter and his wife ‘Inez’ (Rachel McAdams; The Notebook, Sherlock Holmes) travel to Paris with her wealthy parents. Gil is seeking inspiration for his first novel, but Inez does not share his romantic idealistic notion of the world. Unimpressed by Inez’s pseudo-intellectual, pompous acquaintances, Gil wanders off into the city one night alone to find his creativity and gets far more than he bargained for. As the clock strikes Midnight, Gil is transported back to the 1920s where he encounters idols of literary and art history and is swept up in a magical whirlwind of culture and nostalgic refinement. Torn between this newfound secret nightlife and the present day realism of his family vacation, Gil’s marriage, and his grip on reality are both called into question.

With an incredible all star cast including Adrien Brody (The Pianist, King Kong) Michael Sheen (Frost/Nixon, The Queen), Tom Hiddleston (The Deep Blue Sea, War Horse) Marion Cotillard (La Vie en Rose, Inception), Mimi Kennedy (Due Date, Pump up the Volume), Alison Pill (Scott Pilgrim, Milk), Kathy Bates (Titanic, Misery) and Carla Bruni (The Lake House, 500 Days of Summer), this cinematic event and Golden Globe® nominee is one not to be missed.

Re-released into the nation’s cinemas last Friday Kind Hearts and Coronets is perhaps the most famous of Ealing’s celebrated comedies, detailing the retribution and enforced inheritance of a Dukedom via the macabre fate of the various ill-natured and intemperate members of the D’Ascoyne family.
It’s a beautifully pitched comedy of terrors, leading us through an increasingly dark labyrinth of revenge, double crossing love matches and murder in the most polite fashion.

Dennis Price leads us as the outcast Louis Mazzini, who seeks to avenge his Mother’s rebuff from her rich family but pruning the family tree to allow for his succession to the position of Duke of Chalfont. Stir into the mix a childhood sweetheart spurning the poor Louis’ proposal in favour of a ridiculous, but rich, man and the universe conspires for the diabolical plan to unfold.

Every time I watch this film I’m impressed with the pace and confidence of the storytelling. Director Robert Hamer had the benefit of two films at Ealing under his belt as well as the prodigious talents of the cast and crew but his reworking (with John Dighton) of Roy Horniman’s novel Israel Rank elevates the delightfully pompous narrator (Louis, writing his memoirs)  to a textured and engaging character and we are drawn into his scheme; complicit with him and this is the film’s great achievement.

The many performances of Alec Guinness in Kind Hearts and Coronets has been lauded over the years and rightfully so. Able to swap genders and span decades Guinness becomes so enveloped in each characters that, though there’s a necessary and playful sense of grandstanding, every character is true and it remains a stunning turn.

The final scenes, when the fates of those left standing is teased, is masterfully played and directed; you are able to see the moral clockwork tick tock as fateful decisions are made. I knew how this one plays out and there’s an excellent chance you will to, but like Les Diaboliques (another well known film recently given the Blu-ray shine) this is a film that works its magic every single time. Included on the disc is the American ending which, in order to satisfy the Hays Code removes all ambiguity from the ending in a graceless manner but it a nice oddity to accompany the film.

The restoration is spot on, with only a few scenes suffering from a slight blurring but this is a momentary occurrence. The sharpness and rich quality of the picture and the tones are among the best I’ve seen. Like many of these re-issued films this is a release which has been treated with care and to have the film playing in the cinemas again is a rare treat.

It is irreverent, dark and very funny with Dennis Price perhaps playing second fiddle to Alec Guinness’s famous octet but thanks to a joyful and technically expert script every character is solid and the resultant jigsaw puzzle of aristocratic snakes and ladders (if I may mix my board game metaphors for a moment) is richly rewarding on every viewing. This is one to catch at the cinema and one to own.

The restored version is out in cinemas now – check here (http://www.findanyfilm.com/Kind-Hearts-and-Coronets-film_options~9536) to find the nearest screening to you, and the Blu-ray is out on the 5th of September .

KIND HEARTS AND CORONETS gets a very welcome re-release into UK cinemas on the 22nd of August and will then be released on DVD and Blu-ray on 5th September 2011 and we have three shiny Blu-rays to give away.

Perhaps the most perfect of all the Golden-Age Ealing comedies, Kind Hearts and Coronets famously featured Alec Guinness in eight different roles as the unsuspecting members of the aristocratic D’Ascoyne family – bumped off one by one by the scheming, outcast cousin of the family: Louis Mazzini. Mazzini’s mother was a D’Ascoyne by birth, but she ran away with an opera singer and was ostracized by her family as a result. When her dying wish to be buried in the family crypt is refused, Louis vows to get his revenge. As he ascends the social ranks, he is torn between his love for now-married childhood sweetheart, and equally devilish Sibella (Joan Greenwood), and the saintly wife of one of his victims, Edith D’Ascoyne (Valerie Hobson).

Dennis Price’s stunning performance as the ambitious Louis has always been somewhat overshadowed by Guinness, so sit back and admire anew the coolly detached relish with which he dispatches the eight relatives standing between himself, the Dukedom, and revenge. The film featured stunning and inventive cinematography by Douglas Slocombe, and a groundbreaking first-person narrative that, legend has it, inspired Scorsese to make use of the same device in Goodfellas.

This pair of tickets is for Saturday’s event and will give you the chance to see the entire Scream trilogy on the big screen, or hear ILM discuss their work on the  Star Wars saga, see Attack the Block in the fine company of director Joe Cornish and some of the cast, or perhaps hear the legendary David Arnold talk about his film music – and that’s only part of the festivities on offer.

So, as this is a pretty spectacular prize we want you to prove to us that you deserve to be chosen as the winner. That’s why we’re looking for the Ultimate Movie Fan to show us why you are worthy of these tickets.

We want to know about your love for all things cinema, if you have a DVD shelf solely comprised of Jerry Bruckheimer films, or have the world’s biggest collection of Harry Potter merchandise, or perhaps it’s a connection to movies that is simple and personal to you – tell us a story, sing us a song, send us a picture of your shrine to Steven Seagal  – it’s entirely up to you.

The best of the bunch will receive the pair of tickets and be joining us and the thousands of others at the UK’s biggest movie event. Exciting, eh?

To celebrate the release of Battle: Los Angeles on DVD and Blu-ray 11th July, Sony Home Entertainment have given us three copies of the movie to give away on DVD. You can pre-order your copy here or scroll down to enter our competition.

Synopsis: For years, there have been documented cases of UFO sightings around the world — Buenos Aires, Seoul, France, Germany, and China. But in 2011, what were once just sightings will become a terrifying reality when Earth is attacked by unknown forces. As people everywhere watch the world’s great cities fall, Los Angeles becomes the last stand for mankind in a battle no one expected. It’s up to a Marine staff sergeant (Eckhart) and his new platoon to draw a line in the sand as they take on an enemy unlike any they’ve ever encountered before. BATTLE: LOS ANGELES was written by Chris Bertolini (The General’s Daughter) and produced by Neal H. Moritz and Ori Marmur (The Green Hornet, The Bounty Hunter). Executive producers are Jeffrey Chernov (upcoming Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Star Trek) and David Greenblatt. It was distributed by Columbia Pictures and has a run time of approximately 116 mins. It has been rated 12.
