Essential Love Songs

Dean Martin

CD ($12.98)

Get a little help in setting the mood for Valentine’s Day with this collection of oh-so-smo-o-o-th, seductive, snuggle-up ballads from the late, great crooner whose cool-cat charms stretched across the spectrum of radio, television and movies. The Las Vegas-lounge love flows with “Dream a Little Dream of Me,” “That’s Amorè” and 14 more tunes just right for romancin’ and slow dancin’.

Monty Python: Almost the Truth (The Lawyers Cut)

DVD ($29.95)

An authorized documentary about the iconic comedic troupe known as Monty Python, this 3-DVD set commemorates the group’s 40th anniversary with nearly eight hours of revealing interviews and hundreds of clips from its long-running BBC-TV series, live appearances and movies. Where else are you going to encounter a lumberjack chorus, a dead parrot, the Minister of Silly Walk and knights who say ‘Ni’? Nowhere!

Food, Inc.

DVD ($26.98)

An eye-opening exposè of who controls what America eats, this hard-hitting documentary made waves with its theatrical release last year as it fingered the food industry for putting profit ahead of health, safety and the environment. See for yourself—but eat before you watch, because once it’s over you might not have much of an appetite! Bonus features include deleted scenes, celebrity public-service announcements and an ABC-TV “Nightline” segment called “You Are What You Eat.”
