Product Information

Failure of either Party to insist upon strict performance of any provision of this or any Agreement or the failure of either Party to exercise any right or remedy to which it, he or they are entitled hereunder shall not constitute a waiver thereof and shall not cause a diminution of the obligations under this or any Agreement. DTS-HD Master Audio track sounds fantastic where it should be, and is perfectly serviceable in other areas.

This includes, without limitation, direct loss, loss of business or profits (whether or not the loss of such profits was foreseeable, arose in the normal course of things or you have advised this Company of the possibility of such potential loss), damage caused to your computer, computer software, systems and programs and the data thereon or any other direct or indirect, consequential and incidental damages.

Jones herself has said watching the film “will be like seeing me almost naked” and, indeed, Fiennes’s treatment is every bit as definition-defying as its subject, untamed by either age or life itself.

Larger than life, wild, scary and androgynous, Grace Jones plays all these parts – yet here we also discover her as lover, daughter, mother, sister and even grandmother, allowing us to explore the world inside the icon. If any provision of this agreement (or part of a provision) is found by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, the other provisions shall remain in force. All of this is here for you: the full Grace Jones experience, crafted from the real, to the super-real, to inconsequential observations, wrapped up in superior artifice like one of Jones' outlandish hats, like one of her angry, stentorian, sensuous performances, everything left on the floor for you, past, present, and future. Sophie Fiennes’s documentary goes beyond the traditional music biography, offering a portrait as stylish and unconventional as its subject. A huge pity: the original "One Man Show" is one of the greatest music video packages of all time, but this is just a substandard VHS rip complete with a false aspect ratio.Audio commentary with Grace Jones, director Sophie Fiennes, and Associate Professor of Africana Studies Judith Casselberry.
