Review She Done Him Wrong [1933] / Universal Pictures UK:In her first starring film vehicle, She Done Him Wrong, Mae West is Lady Lou, a saloon singer and "slick article" who drives every man who sees her mad with desire. She positively oozes sex, but always with sly, self-mocking humor. Lady Lou remarking on the nude painting of her hanging over the bar: "I gotta admit that is a flash, but I do wish Gus hadn't hung it over the free lunch. " West warbles several numbers in her Brooklyn-accented, sweetly nasal voice, accompanied by her famous suggestive roll of the eye and flip of the hip: "Frankie and Johnny," "Easy Rider," and "A Guy What Takes His Time. " Based on West's Broadway play Diamond Lil, the film is set in the Gay '90s, "a lusty, brawling, florid decade, when there were handlebars on lip and wheel and legs were confidential. " The corny plot involves the eternal male rivalry for Mae's favors, as well as a white slavery ring that is shipping unsuspecting girls to the Barbary Coast. But the movie's real treat is the cat-and-mouse game between West's Lady Lou and the Hawk, a detective disguised as a missionary, played by a devastatingly handsome young Cary Grant. West: "Why don't you come up some time, see me? I'm here every night. " Grant: "Yeah, but I'm busy every night. " West: "What're you tryin' to do, insult me?. [+]
You can be had. " In She Done Him Wrong, Mae West is absolutely in her prime. Her one-of-a-kind intermarriage of eroticism and humor, worldly wisdom and scalding wit are presented with perfect panache. -Laura Mirsky.

Review Frank Sinatra - A Man And His Music [1965] / Warner Music Vision:A Man and His Music is part of a series of Sinatra DVDs assembled by Warner Music Vision. It's a fine idea, and would have been finer still if someone had roused themselves to make a bit more of an effort with the packaging. As it is, it is possible to deduce that the performances here were recorded for television in 1965, and involve the orchestras of Nelson Riddle and Gordon Jenkins, but beyond that, we're on our own. That minor quibble aside, there is no serious reason why every man, woman and child alive should not want to own this. A Man and His Music focuses on the upbeat lounge-lizard portion of Sinatra's incomparable oeuvre, showing him snapping his fingers through a series of impeccable songs ("I've Got You Under My Skin", "I Get a Kick Out of You", "The Lady is a Tramp", among others) in a series of impeccable suits. On the DVD: Those responsible for A Man and His Music are clearly of the (not unreasonable) belief that Sinatra doesn't require garnish: the only special features are a menu for selecting individual songs, a catalogue of other DVDs in the Sinatra series and, last and most certainly least, an enragingly superfluous trailer for the DVD you've already bought. The pictures are in 4:3 format, and subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian are available. -Andrew Mueller.
