Award-winning filmmaker Jafar Panahi's (The White Balloon, The Circle) latest triumph is an intimate and absorbing drama about the ways in which the hypocrisies and slights of daily life can push otherwise reasonable people over the edge. Based on true events and written by acclaimed director Abbas Kiarostami (A Taste of Cherry), CRIMSON GOLD is the story of Hussein, a humble pizza deliveryman who feels continually humiliated by the injustices he sees all around him. When his friend Ali finds a receipt for a stranger's necklace purchase, Hussein is stunned by its exceptionally high cost. He knows that his pitiful salary will never be enough to afford such a luxury. Soon after, he and Ali are refused entry to an upto! wn jewelry store because of their scruffy appearances; his rage over this slight sets off a series of events. But Hussein will taste the luxurious life for one night before his deep feelings of humiliation push him over the edge. DVD extras include: 5.1, trailer, subtitle control, weblinks, Interview with director Jafar PanahiTwo master filmmakers, Abba Kiarostami (A Taste of Cherry) and Jafar Panahi (The Circle), team up as writer and director, respectively (as they did on 1996's The White Balloon), on Crimson Gold, a subtle tragedy about class conflict in Iran. Hussein (Hossain Emadeddin) is a lumbering veteran swollen by cortisone (for war-induced pain) and reduced to delivering pizzas at night. (He is frequently lost in a mental semi-fog during the days.) Witness to the rewards and vanities of the wealthy, insulted when a jewelry shop owner won't allow him in his store, and under pressure to get married, Hussein awkwardly aspires for higher ! ground but is more familiar with a life of marginal importance! . When a n eccentric socialite gives him a taste of luxury, something desperate is unleashed. Panahi brings his feel for and vision of the expansive ordinary, for the near-invisible forces churning within characters in seemingly throwaway circumstances. A haunting film. --Tom Keogh
She wanted out.

She wanted a new life.

She wanted a trophy worthy of a master thief.

She wanted to find the source of the treasured crimson gold.

She wanted to face an undead emperor on his home ground and live to tell the tale.

Careful what you wish for.

The '25, '61, '78, '79, and '92 national championships, the first game ! under Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant, the Alabama-Tennessee rivalry, the Alabama-Auburn rivalry, and twelve more power-packed memorable moments make up the legend of Alabama Football. Eli Gold brings these memories to life with the same clarity and fervor that fans have come to love as they listen to football on the radio.

Featured are legendary Alabama players and coaches including Joe Namath, Johnny Musso, Kenny Stabler, Gene Stallings, Harry Gilmer, Don Hutson, and other names that are still part of everyday conversation in Alabama, regardless of when they attended the university. So much of what was great at Alabama is because of the leadership and influence of Bear Bryant, and his story is told as well as his part in the story of every one of these important moments.

Set roughly in chronological order with photographs throughout, Crimson Nation is a journey back through time that every true Alabama fan must own.
