Video Americain Celebrates Our Day In the Sun!
~::~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~::~
Baltimore Sun film critic Chris Kaltenbach profiled Video Americain
this week in honor of our 20th anniversary!
"Video Americain is, hands-down, Baltimore's best video store --
really the only place, outside of maybe the Enoch Pratt Library,
likely to have for rent copies of both The Dark Knight and the
complete works of Russian director Sergei Eisenstein," Kaltenbach
begins.
For the rest of Chris Kaltenbach's great story PLUS a video interview
with Video Americain customers, owners and employees, go to:

Phenomenal Film Quote of the Week!
~::~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~::~
"Now, a few words on looking for things. When you go looking for
something specific, your chances of finding it are very bad. Because
of all the things in the world, you're only looking for one of them.
When you go looking for anything at all, your chances of finding it
are very good. Because of all the things in the world, you're sure to
find some of them. – Bill Pullman as Daryl Zero in Zero Effect (1998)
Pick of the Week
~::~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~::~
What Makes Sammy Run? (1959)
Drawn from the controversial best-seller by Budd Schulberg, this
definitive television adaptation is finally available on DVD. Thrill
to the meteoric rise of hustler Sammy Glick from copy boy to the
heights of the Hollywood studio system. It's a great hidden treasure
for those who are fans of films like The Player and Sunset Boulevard.
