Casanova Lasse Hallstrom Heath Ledger plays history's most famous ladies' man in a stylish and tastefully ribald comedy from Lasse Hallstrom (My Life as a Dog). Based ever-so-loosely on Giacomo Casanova's memoirs, the film follows the irresistible charmer as he tries to wriggle out of trouble with Venetian Inquisitors. Though he's capable of winning the hand of almost any woman he chooses, Casanova's gaze settles on the fiercely independent Francesca Bruni (Sienna Miller), a beautiful and intelligent young woman who thinks Casanova is nothing but a cad. With Jeremy Irons, Oliver Platt, and Lena Olin. "A handsome chunk of widescreen entertainment that's as nimble as its rakish hero" (Variety). USA, 2005, 108 mins. DVD | $44.95
Chocolat Lasse Hallstrom Juliette Binoche, Judi Dench, Lena Olin, Alfred Molina, Carrie Anne Moss and Johnny Depp star in this sensuous fable about individuality, love, and indulgences. Binoche plays a single mother who arrives with her daughter in a small, fictional French town. The candy shop she sets up and her secular philosophy don't sit well with the more conservative members of the community - particularly the uptight mayor (Molina). But the newcomer proves to be a force of healing, joy, and possibly even magic for many of her neighbors, including an elderly woman (Dench) kept apart from her grandson, and an Irish vagabond (Depp) who is a little sweet on the sweets lady. The DVD is letterboxed, includes filmmakers' commentary track, "making of" segment, deleted scenes, and behind-the-scenes segments on costumes and production design, with optional French soundtrack and Spanish subtitles. USA/Great Britain, 2000, 121 mins. DVD | $37.95

The Hoax Lasse Hallstrom Richard Gere gives a brilliant performance as Clifford Irving in Lasse Hallstrom's entertaining film about the man who notoriously defrauded the McGraw-Hill publishing house in the early 1970s by selling the rights to an "authorized autobiography" of reclusive mogul Howard Hughes. As the con unfolds, we find the film's lively pace is hiding a sinister undercurrent--with clear connections to the story's sociopolitical context.
