December 29, 2008

After a month of cocktailing and carousing, spend a night in with our
DVD picks from 2008.

Athena, Toronto editor
I never got to see Karl Lagerfeld striking a
pose in Lagerfeld
Confidential
so I’ll be getting my fix over the holidays.

Malwina, Calgary editor
The critcally lauded Bella,
beautifully shot in New York, chronicles separate lives intersecting in
one daywith life changing results.

Winner of the 2008 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film,
The
Counterfeiters
is an intense, harrowing story of a Jewish
forger who is imprisoned in a concentration camp during the war and
forced into helping the Nazis falsify money.

Elsa, Montreal editor, French edition
Finish the year laughing with The
Party
, an outrageously funny film featuring Blake Edwards and
Peter Sellers.

Maria, Copy chief
Destined to go the way of Arrested Development
(critically acclaimed and largely ignored by TV viewers), Friday
Night Lights
is smart, touching, heartbreaking and funnydont let
the football-inspired title deter you.
