Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (Full Screen Edition) $3.39 This remastered, pan-and-scan 30th-anniversary edition of that kiddie-car caper is flawed but solid family fare. It retains a quaint charm while some of the songs–including the title tune–are quite hummable. A huge plus is Dick Van Dyke, who is extremely appealing as an eccentric inventor around the turn of the century. With nimble fingers and a unique way of looking at the world, he invents for… |

King Creole $7.15 Before his handlers convinced him to settle for the safety of a screen franchise, the young Elvis Presley harbored riskier dreams as an actor, not just a star. This 1958 drama, his fourth feature outing, hints at the underlying seriousness of that goal.

King Of The Surf Guitar: The Best Of Dick Dale & His Del-Tones $5.64 This collection rightly concentrates on Dale’s instrumental exploits as the Jimi Hendrix of surf music. Nineteen sixty-one’s “Let’s Go Trippin’” was the first real surf instrumental, although the pyrotechnic fretwork of later Dale records is largely absent. Those divebomb runs, reverb drenchings, and impossibly quick picking displays materialize on the next single, “Shake & Stomp,” then bloom on t… |
