Writer/director Wendell Morris' autobiographical made-for-cable film takes a lighthearted look at a difficult subject not often mined for comedy: cancer. When cynical cartoonist Taylor Darcy (Jonathan Silverman) is diagnosed with the disease, he eschews sympathy from his overly-concerned friends and coworkers and deals with his illness with characteristic wit and sarcasm. As Darcy undergoes hospital treatment, he observes the vagaries of the modern health care system with tough-minded humor and meets his match in Lynn Piegi (Natasha Gregson Wagner), a free-spirited leukemia patient who is even sicker than he is and just might prove to be his soulmate.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Surround - English Dolby Surround - SpanishAdditional Release Material: TrailerInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive MenusText/Photo Galleries: Filmographies - 1.

Three world-class singers (Joe Mantegna, George Hamilton, and Danny Aiello) who have become famous for their joint performances unexpectedly break up their act after a single poor showing in Mexico City. However, the break up has been long in the making, as all three have become inflated with self-importance and arrogance. Some time later, however, Ricardo (Mantegna) learns of his estranged daughter`s plans to marry Armand (Hamilton). Never one to let a golden opportunity slip by, Ricardo sets out with two plans in mind: to convince his daughter not to marry, and to reunite the trio and regain their lost glory. Loosely inspired by the legendary, real-life Three Tenors, OFF KEY is a gentle farce directed by Manuel Gomez Pereira (BOCA A BOCA).

Novelist-playwright-comedian-screenwriter-television writer Ben Elton (THE YOUNG ONES, BLACKADDER) tries his busy hand at directing with MAYBE BABY, a short, sweet romantic comedy about a couple very much in love but having difficulty conceiving a child. Hugh Laurie (Sam) and Joely Richardson (Lucy) are perfect as the struggling couple. Sam works for the BBC, where his new young boss shoves mottoes and buzzwords down his employees' throats. (One of the best is Stay on message.) Sam and Lucy try anything and everything to conceive, reading books, following quack advice, using special massage oils, and seeing doctor after doctor to determine what the problem is. An aspiring writer, Sam has been looking for just the right story. When he suggests to Lucy (who keeps track of all of her thoughts and emotions in her diary) that he write about their struggles trying to have a baby, Lucy is furious that he would even consider making light of their personal relationship. But when he goes ahead and does it anyway--without her knowledge--their love is tested in more ways than one. Elton's witty debut film also features small parts played by such British stars as Emma Thompson, Rowan Atkinson, Dawn French, and Joanna Lumley.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen
