Get Behind Me Satan $3.89 Their fifth album, Get Behind Me Satan is the strangest and least focused effort by these unlikely garage rock superstars to date. It’s also their finest, an Exile on Main Street-ish mish-mash where the sum is greater than the parts. In a market increasingly driven by singles and downloads, it’s nice to be reminded how exciting an album can be, especially one where you really don’t know what to ex… |

If I Could Tell You $7.17 Modest in both scale and sound, If I Could Tell You represents a less elaborate, more back-to-basics approach to music for an artist lately accustomed to staging Grand Statements (see Tribute). A straightforward, keyboard-based studio recording with minimal accompaniment, If I Could Tell You finds Yanni exploring a pleasant though largely unexceptional middle ground–less overtly romantic than his… |

Adaptation (Superbit Collection) $3.98 Twisty brilliance from screenwriter Charlie Kaufman and director Spike Jonze, the team who created Being John Malkovich. Nicolas Cage returns to form with a funny, sad, and sneaky performance as Charlie Kaufman, a self-loathing screenwriter who has been hired to adapt Susan Orlean’s book The Orchid Thief into a screenplay. Frustrated and infatuated by Orlean’s elegant but plotless book (which… |

Anacondas – The Hunt for the Blood Orchid $1.92 So here’s the deal: A bunch of sassy scientific types, who all look as though tey’ve spent just as much time lifting barbells as they have beakers, head out into Borneo to find some rare flower that’s the “pharmaceutical equivalent to the fountain of youth”–and end up dodging the digestive system of several mutant snakes during mating season. You gotta hate when that happens. If you don’t, you so… |

The Orchid Thief: A True Story of Beauty and Obsession (Ballantine Reader’s Circle) $4.10 Orchidelirium is the name the Victorians gave to the flower madness that is for botanical collectors the equivalent of gold fever. Wealthy orchid fanatics of that era sent explorers (heavily armed, more to protect themselves against other orchid seekers than against hostile natives or wild animals) to unmapped territories in search of new varieties of Cattleya and Paphiopedilum. As knowledge… |

Pretty Little Liars #4: Unbelievable $3.99 Four pretty little liars’ charmed lives have turned into living nightmares. Emily’s been shipped off to Iowa to live with her überconservative cousins. Aria’s boyfriend is behind bars—because of her. Spencer’s afraid she was involved in Ali’s murder. But Hanna’s fate is far worse: She’s clinging to life in the hospital because she knew too much. If these girls don’t start listening to me, … |

Wild Orchid: A Retelling of The Ballad of Mulan (Once Upon a Time) $3.45 “Once upon a Time” Is Timeless Wielding a sword as deftly as an embroidery needle, Mulan is unlike any other girl in China. When the emperor summons a great army, each family must send a male to fight. Tomboyish Mulan is determined to spare her aging father and bring her family honor, so she disguises herself and answers the call. But Mulan never expects to find a friend, let alone a soul ma… |
