Off The Record...

Donnas

Get Skin Tight

Opening their third album with the sound of a fly unzipping, the Donnas come charging out of the exposed opening like a lawless mob of switchblade toting, detention hall schoolgirls. These ladies roll out rude, retro-inspired guitar hooks at a feverish rate, capturing the spirit of teenage trash culture as well as anyone since the Ramones. Nothing will sound better pumping out of the speakers of your rusty junker than this.

 

At The Movies...

Big Daddy

To impress a girl, an underachieving toll booth operator adopts a son, only to discover he has to raise the boy all by himself.  Pretty tough when Adam Sandler is just a kid himself.  With jokes and plot lines that will make you laugh and cringe at the same time, Sandler delivers another flick with blockbuster clout.  If you haven’t gotten his humor by now, you never will.  Sandler may never win an Oscar, but his fans couldn’t care less.

 

On Video...

Rushmore

When an over-achieving 15 year-old falls for the school's new first grade teacher, he's determined to out-man his friend Mr. Blume, a steel tycoon and school benefactor, for her affections. With its off-the-wall story line and characters, Rushmore stays one step ahead of sappy sentimentality as it uses dark humor to explore three lonely lives in search of emotional repair. Funny and charming, you've never seen anything quite like this before.
