E 8 tl o c. ~ Ln o o N ...; tf o -c.. .:.:: .... o >- ~ Q) z Sideways **** Fox, $29.98 Every bit as good as the critics said, this winning movie about two buddies on a wine-tasting trip is full-bodied and rich in humor and hopefulness, with just a hint of cynicism to keep you on your toes.</p><p> Extras include deleted scenes and com­ mentary by Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church.</p><p> Also just out is Adam Sandler's "Spanglish" (Sony. $28.95), which is every bit as bad as the critics said.</p><p> Silverado: Gift Set ***llz Sony, $19.94 This 1985 Western helped turn Kevin Costner into a star and was so much fun, you just knew it would be followed by a revival of the genre.</p><p> Nope, but at least we've still got this quirky gem that also stars Kevin Kline, Danny Glover and John Cleese.</p><p> Lots of extras, including playing cards, com­ mentary by Western historians and more.</p><p> The ~Corporation ** Zeitgeist, $29.99 This engaging documentary takes a long time to come to the conclusion that corporations are concerned with only one thing: money.</p><p> Its amusing twist is to treat a corporation like a "per­ son" (its legal defInition) and decide that based on its actions, it must be a psychopath.</p><p> Interviews with everyone from Milton Friedman to Noam Chomsky.</p><p> The Professionals: S~Edition *** Sony, $19.94 Anyone suffering withdrawal after the end of Film Forum's terrifIc Western series in March should pick up this precursor to "The Dirty Dozen." The 1966 Burt Lancaster romp about men hired to rescue a rich man's wife from a revolutionary Mexican is unpretentious fun.</p><p> Also out: Barbara Stanwyck and Edward G.</p><p> Robinson are a mar­ ried couple looking to tame the West in 1955's "The Violent Men" (Sony, $14.94).</p><p> The West Wing: Season Four *** Warner Bros., $59.98 Aaron Sorkin was dumped by NBC after this season, so not surprisingly, it's the last one worth watching.</p><p> President Bartlett's reelection provides a lot of fodder, as does Sam Seaborn's run for Congress. (In an ironic twist, Rob Lowe was treated just as poorly by Sorkin as Sorkin was by NBC, but left gracefully on his own.) Unfortunately, the show would never be the same.</p><p> Also out: "Queer as Folk: Fourth Season." (Showtime, $109.98).
