DVD – A Christmas Tale (2008)
The Criterion Collection DVD release of last year’s A Christmas Tale. Catherine Deneuve stars as the matriarch of a troubled family, together at Christmastime. Criterion describes the French film as "an inventive, magical drama that's equal parts merriment and melancholy." The disc includes a new, restored high-definition digital transfer, two documentaries, and the original theatrical trailers. Also included: a booklet featuring an essay by critic Phillip Lopate.
The youngest, and perhaps most talented “American Idol” Season 8 finalist releases her debut album today with Jive. Iraheta’s standout performances from the season included a beautiful duet of “Time After Time” with Cyndi Lauper and rocking out to “Slow Ride” with Adam Lambert.
