Well, I'm not sure about the second half (though it's about how women choose their paths between success and failure) we do have a very favorite movie, Jane Campion's TWO FRIENDS (recent review here<http://www.thelmagazine.com/TheMeasure/archives/2010/12/17/two-friends-jane-campions-debut-study-of-fragile-female-relationships-plays-this-weekend>) that also was written by the wonderful author, Helen Garner. We even just recently reduced the price of the DVD. But, wait there's more... The bonus feature is Jane's first short film MISHAPS OF SEDUCTION AND CONQUEST a historical film which features young man trying to be the first to climb Mount Everest while his younger brother in an office is trying to successfully explore his young secretary. (Both fail badly.)

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
