The White Balloon [VHS] $8.49 In the mid-to-late 1990s, Iran began to be recognized as a refreshing source of low-budget, wryly naturalistic filmmaking, and Jafar Panahi’s The White Balloon (winner of the Camera d’Or award at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival) was the first Iranian film to get a U.S. art-house release. Simple and spare yet filled with observant detail, it’s a mild, beguiling movie about a 7-year-old girl’s tenacio… |

Helen of Tus: Her Odyssey from Idaho to Iran $22.00 This is not a typical book and one should not expect to read it as such. First, the style of the book is very different than what we typically read in English, and it is only after you begin, that it’s faint familiarity begins to awaken in you.

Gi Jane [VHS] $1.99 It seemed like a pretty good career move, and for the most part it was. Demi Moore will never top any rational list of great actresses, but as her career stalled in the mid-1990s she had enough internal fire and external physicality to be just right for her title role in G.I. Jane. Her character’s name isn’t Jane–it’s Jordan O’Neil–but the fact that she lacks a penis makes her an immediate stan… |

Oriental Ivory
Hello. Is there a way to tell the difference between an old ivory piece opposed to bone or horn?
The little oriental man holding what looks like a scroll and walking stick has a bottom which makes it easy to see what the material used looks like but I need a bit of info on what to look for.
I was intrigued, so I did a little searching. I thought there wouldn’t be an answer – isn’t ivory made from tusks, which is horn? But it turns out that you can tell the difference between ivory and some other “ivory-like” substances. Here’s a page that has photos to tell if the piece is ivory, plastic, or bone:

Scary Movie [VHS] $9.99 If you’ve seen Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, then you know the entire plot of Scary Movie. That’s okay, though, because this is a parody, and it helps to know the story in order to be able to get the jokes. No, the biggest surprise here is not the story as much as the amount of full-frontal male nudity. Really, in addition to all the dick jokes (and the ass jokes and fart jokes), the… |
