Standout supernatural action movie from 1987. The tale of a poor young scholar who falls in love with a ghostly princess, it involves a journey to the underworld, a battle with a mile-long tongue, sword fights, songs, slapstick and some real shocks. Despite its evident lack of a budget, it’s magical, mildly erotic and only marginally insane.

Named after the Rolling Stones song, this moody melodrama from the City Of Angels director went unacknowledged, despite Jake Gyllenhaal starring sharply on the heels of Donnie Darko, When his girlfriend dies, he finds her parents, Dustin Hoffman and Susan Sarandon, eager to bond with him through shared grief. He’s ready to move on, but hasn’t the heart to tell them. Actorly, but honest.

Back in 1974, rolling Stone journalist Jon Landau famously hailed Springsteen as “the future of rock’n’roll”. Thirty years on and The Boss is widely acknowledged as one of the all-time great live performers. Given this awesome reputation, it’s almost impossible to believe that this is the first Springsteen live show to be released in its entirety.

Recorded in 2002, it’s pretty much as you’d expect?a masterclass in barnstorming showmanship. But it’s not without flaws: the show was partly broadcast live on satellite television, and consequently the cameras inhibited the band’s movements on stage for the first half of the gig. The set list is a satisfying mix of old favourites alongside material from The Rising. Early on we get a fiery “Prove It All Night” and a jubilant “Waiting On A Summer Day”, while later standouts include solo piano versions of “Spirit In The Night” and “Incident On 57th Street”, plus a majestic “Land Of Hope And Dreams”.

Springsteen turned 54 in September, and this may turn out to be his last big tour with the E Street Band. For those who missed the shows, this DVD gives some indication of what they missed, and for those who were there this is a perfect way to look back on those glory days.

DVD EXTRAS: None.

Matthew Barney’s extraordinary Cremaster Cycle has won outrageous accolades: “greatest living artist”, “best fusion of art and cinema since Bu

Sequenced in reverse chronological order, these videos show Stipe in his element and Buck very much not in his, counting the seconds till he gets to go home. Still, thanks to Stipe, R.E.M. were always enhanced by video. The collection begins with “Bad Day”, before Stipe’s face de-wrinkles as we regress into the starkly exuberant “What’s The Frequency, Kenneth?” and arresting “Everybody Hurts”. Then Stipe regains his hair for “Losing My Religion”.

Some may have missed the Being John Malkovich director’s diverse portfolio. Spearheading a new label dedicated to maverick film-makers, this contains Jonze’s rock videos?including Chris Walken’s dance number for Fatboy Slim’s “Weapon Of Choice”?but the real buried treasure are hilarious vox pops for Oasis’ “Stand By Me” that proved too bizarre for the po-faced Mancs to release, a doc on rodeo-based Texas youth culture, and more of Jonze’s goofball choreographer from Fatboy Slim’s “Praise You” vid.

Filmed this summer at Madison Square Garden, this performance confirms Eddie Vedder’s Seattle crew as one of the most exciting bands of their generation. Driven by Vedder’s intense presence, they move easily from full-throttle punk attack to brooding ballad, and attain a communal thrall equalled only by The Boss in full flight. Ben Harper and Buzzcocks feature, but it’s the electricity between the stage and audience that’s truly special.
