Synopsis

Pascal Amoretti, a hard-scrabble well-digger, holds a special place in his heart for his oldest child, Patricia. But Patricia has also attracted the attention of Jacques, son of a prosperous shopkeeper. Their attraction quickly blossoms into something more, but then Jacques, a pilot, goes off to fight in the Great War—leaving Patricia behind to deal with the consequences of their brief moment of passion.

DVD and Blu-ray Releases for December 18th, 2012

December 16th, 2012

It's the last week before Christmas, which means it is the last chance for last minute gifts. There are a number of first-run releases coming out this week, some of which are not coming out till Friday, or even next Monday. There are also quite a few limited releases and TV on DVD releases hitting the home market this week. However, none of these were big hits and very few earned strong praise from critics. That doesn't mean there are none that are worth picking up. In fact, we have a trio of contenders for Pick of the Week. Shameless: The Complete Second Season on DVD or Blu-ray; Pitch Perfect on DVD or Blu-ray Combo Pack; and Arbitrage on DVD or Blu-ray. It was a close call, but in the end I went with Arbitrage. Also coming out this week is Rush: 2012 - CD and Blu-ray in a Deluxe Edition or Super Deluxe Edition, which is a clear winner of Puck of the Week. More...
