Clerks III - DVD [Standard]

Kevin Smith's engagingly foul-mouthed and funny independent comedy tracks a InchtypicalInch day at a New Jersey convenience store. Follow philosophical counterman Dante as he serves an array of annoying customers, plays rooftop hockey, and ponders his love life and his future with help from neighboring video store clerk Randal and local ne'er-do-wells Jay and Silent Bob. Brian O'Halloran, Jeff Anderson, Marilyn Ghigliotti, Jason Mewes, and Smith star. 91 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack English Dolby Digital stereo; Subtitles English (SDH); audio commentary by Smith, others; deleted scenes; music video; alternate ending; theatrical trailers.

Another 16 years have gone by, and while fiftyish countermen Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and Randal (Jeff Anderson) own the Quick Stop now, little in their daily dynamic has changed. After a major coronary episode, though, Randal fixates on leaving an artistic legacy-and, with neighboring head shop owners Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) kicking in, looks to film a modest indie about life in a convenience store. Smith's return to the career-launching well co-stars Rosario Dawson, Trevor Fehrman. 115 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

A refreshingly sunny performance from Isabelle Huppert (The Piano Teacher, Elle) is at the center of this comic charmer from South Korean Master Hong Sangsoo. Huppert plays Claire, a school teacher with a camera (that might be magical) on her first visit to Cannes. She happens upon a film sales assistant, Manhee (Kim Minhee), recently laid off after a one-night stand with a film director (Jung Jinyoung). Together, this unlikely pair become detectives of sorts, as they wander around the seaside resort town, working to better understand the circumstances of Manhee's firing and developing new outlooks on life in the process.
