We’re here to continue our little festival chat and represent another title In Competition for the Golden Lion statue, this year, at 67th Venice Film Festival.

Balada triste de trompeta or A Sad Trumpet Ballad is the movie that comes from Spanish director Alex de la Iglesia, and it’s already been described as the comedy that follows two circus clowns, but it’s definitely more than just a comedy….

Here’s the A Sad Trumpet Ballad synopsis: “…1937. The circus monkeys scream wildly inside their cage while, outside, men kill and die in another circus: the Spanish Civil War.

The Stupid Clown, recruited against his will by the Militia, ends up carrying out a bloodbath with a machete against the National soldiers while still wearing his costume.

And so starts this eventful adventure in which Javier and Sergio, two terrifyingly disfigured clowns, fight to the death for the ambiguous...

These last few months of 2009 sure have resulted a crowded marketplace for games, with many "must-have" titles competing to be at the top of your holiday wish lists. So should the recently released second expansion chapter of Grand Theft Auto IV, "The Ballad of Gay Tony," make your list? With all the fun that it presents, we believe so. Die-hard GTA fans already have this title and probably have played through it twice. But if you're on the fence, the bottom line is that Rockstar doesn't disappoint on this go-round. With the graphics and gameplay unchanged, the focus is on introducing the gamer to yet another perspective of the grimy underbelly of Liberty City. You play the entire game as Luis Lopez, a former drug dealer who is now the bodyguard and business partner of Anthony "Gay Tony" Prince. Tony owns two nightclubs, Maisonette 9 and Hercules, where you ...

"The Ballad of Gay Tony," the second (and presumably final) Dlc episode for "Grand Theft Auto 4" drops this week. The episode is available through Xbox Live Marketplace, or as part of a stand-alone retail disc, "Episodes From Liberty City," which also includes the content released in the last Dlc pack, "The Lost and The Damned." Since the latter has been covered extensively, we'll be focusing on "The Ballad of Gay Tony" in this review.

The Basics

Same as it ever was, folks. Not that "GTA" fans would have it any other way. "The Ballad of Gay Tony" brings us back to Liberty City, giving us new perspectives on Rockstar's New York City-in-satire from the point of view of a club-hopping bodyguard/enforcer. It weaves in and out of pre-existing storylines while introducing a colorful cast of all-new characters.

The Highs

Same Old Story

Rockstar understands how to tell a story.

The next and (presumably) final piece of add-on content for "Grand Theft Auto 4" is coming at the end of October. "Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony" gives players a widely different point of view on Liberty City, revealing the glitzy high life, as opposed to the grime of "GTA 4" and "The Lost and the Damned." The episode will be available as downloadable content over Xbox Live, or folks can buy "GTA: Episodes from Liberty City" as a disc, which includes the content from "The Ballad of Gay Tony" and "The Lost and the Damned" (but not the content from "Grand Theft Auto 4").

The Basics

"The Ballad of Gay Tony" places you in the role of Luis Lopez, someone who has appeared as a relatively minor character in "GTA 4" and "Lost and the Damned." If you were looking out for him, you'd recall that he was heavily involved in...
