(Entertainment Weekly) -- Dancing, romancing, and 8 other things we recommend this week:

1. "The Americanization of Emily" on DVD Julie Andrews and James Garner spar as a prissy Brit and a cowardly Yank in this witty, dark 1964 gem.

2. "NewsRadio" Blessed with a sterling ensemble (Phil Hartman, Andy Dick) and crisp writing, seasons 1 and 2 of this smart sitcom sparkle afresh on tidbit-laden DVDs.

3. "Captain Alatriste" by Arthur Perez-Reverte Introduce yourself to the swashbuckling 17th-century caballero at the heart of this thrilling adventure novel from a cult Spanish author.

4. "Crying, While Eating" Clips of whining and dining will induce cackles from even the most lachrymose-intolerant (cryingwhileeating.com).

5. "The Woods" by Sleater-Kinney Beneath those grinding riffs lurks an enticing set of well-crafted, classic-rocking nuggets from the veteran fem-punkers.

6. "The Clumsiest People in Europe" by Todd Pruzan Before there was politically correct, there was this collection of children's lessons, written by a 19th-century Englishwoman. A hoot, even if you do feel guilty for laughing.

7. ''Feel Good Inc." by Gorillaz Hip-hop and cartoon pop collide in this addictive single, courtesy of Blur's Damon Albarn and guests De La Soul.

8. Ewan McGregor and Ian McDiarmid The great Scots turn in marvelous performances (one nuanced, one scenery-chewing) that define the moral spectrum of ''Revenge of the Sith.''

9. "Kings and Queen" Two divorced misrables grapple with failed relationships in a gripping psychological drama from French auteur Arnaud Desplechin.

10. "Mad Hot Ballroom" Inner-city schoolkids get ready to rumba (and fox-trot and merengue) in Marilyn Agrelo's sweetly observant documentary.
