Snack

Two women spend a weekend together at the North Sea. Walks on the beach, fish buns at a snack stand, mobile weather forecasts. Sky, horizon, water. One of them will soon return to her family in Argentina while the other one will try to come a step closer to the ocean. She travels to the Caribbean and the foreign makes her vulnerable. Then, the land is out of sight. On a sailing vessel she crosses the Atlantic Ocean. One wave follows the other, they never resemble. Thoughts go astray, time leaves the beaten track and the swell lulls to deep sleep. The sea takes over the narration. And when the other one reappears in it, the wind is still in her hair while the ground beneath her feet is solid. She returns and the one of them could ask: "Have you changed?"

This delectable episode traces our love affair with chocolate back to York. It was here that chocolate was transformed from a luxury drink for the rich into the nation's favourite treat. Presenter Steph McGovern leads the makers through the ages, guided by Yorkshireman and chocolatier Paul A Young. Chocolate started as an expensive luxury drink. The makers begin the painstaking task of preparing the cocoa beans from scratch; roasting, shelling and grinding the beans, as would have been done in the Georgian era. Then in early Victorian times, the makers have to create a more affordable blended drink. They are appalled to learn that the ingredients include plaster, brick dust and crushed sea shells.

Seventeen-year old Robbie Zirpollo (Randy Wayne) has a problem. As the film opens, his mother (Lindsay Wagner) is driving him to his new summer job. We learn that Robbie has grown up in Oceanside, California, but now he and his mother have moved to Colorado for a fresh start, as his father has taken the family's savings and his secretary to Mexico. Robbie's mom has, through an uncle, gotten him a summer job at Water World on the grounds crew. The adventure begins when Robbie meets Alex (Ben Ziff) and gets moved to Aokee's (Gabriel Iglesias) Surf & Snack shack to work. Alex convinces Robbie to enter the park's "Employee Olympics" to bring the Surfer King trophy to it's rightful place among the concessions crew. Tiffany (Cerina Vincent), the park owner's daughter, has other ideas for Robbie.

Premiering on June 9, the awesomely-titled Ice Spiders will star B-movie regulars Patrick Muldoon, Vanessa Williams and Thomas Calabro (oooh, that Michael!) as they do battle with um, giant frozen spiders? Not sure exactly. Aha, this phenomenal trailer just filled in the blanks: Genetically-altered mega-spiders take residence in a ski lodge, and that's where they opt to snack on our lead actors, a bunch of Olympic skiers, and formerly reputable TV producer Stephen J. Cannell. (Don't ask.) Old-school horror nerds may be pleased to learn that the director is Tibor Takacs … yes, the guy who helmed The Gate, I, Madman, Mansquito and … Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep!! (I just love that title.)

Hong Kong 1960. A sweltering hot summer, York (Leslie Cheung), an amoral disillusioned and cruel young man, is kept in luxury by his foster mother, a retired courtesan who gives him everything but the one thing he needs to known-the identity of his natural mother. A self-obsessed man, desperately seeking his true identity, York plays carelessly with his lovers, a lonely submissive bargirl (Maggie Cheung) and a beautiful club hostess/dancer (Carina Lau) and his friends, before leaving them all for Taiwan in search of the truth that has been denied and may ultimately destroy him.
