Chronicle of a Summer: The Criterion Collection (Blu-ray)

March 4th, 2013 No comments

Highly Recommended THE FILM Please Note: The images used here are taken from promotional and other sources, not the Blu-ray edition of the film under review. We’re all fairly well-accustomed by now to movies that openly, self-reflexively acknowledge their own artificiality — so many different filmmakers, from Godard to De Palma to Tarantino , have been doing it for so long, each for their own …

Innocent Bystanders (Blu-ray)

March 3rd, 2013 No comments

Recommended The spy movie craze of the mid-1960s was kaput and then some by 1972, when Innocent Bystanders was first released. And yet, while hardly a genre-shaking game-changer, it’s still significantly better than most of the 007-influenced movies that came before it, offering an occasionally amusing cynical eccentricity

Julius Caesar (1970) (Blu-ray)

February 28th, 2013 No comments

DVD Talk Collector Series All’s Well That Ends Well, at least for the 1970 film version of William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar . Not a great success when it was new, this Panavision production had previously been released to DVD by Lions Gate/Artisan in 2004 and 2007, both times utilizing the same old, genuinely ugly and unpardonably panned-and-scanned video master.

Anna Karenina (Blu-ray)

February 25th, 2013 No comments

Highly Recommended Anna Karenina is the latest adaptation to be filmed of Leo Tolstoy’s classic and acclaimed novel. This time around the film auteur and director bringing it all together for the big-screen is none other than the spectacularly gifted Joe Wright ( Pride and Prejudice , Atonement ), who brings with him an unusual and unique approach to the source material by turning it into …

Irreconcilable Differences (Blu-ray)

February 22nd, 2013 No comments

Recommended The Movie: In the early 80s, divorce suddenly became a big subject in the media, particularly when it involved couples with kids. Irreconcilable Differences , released in 1984, addressed not only the divorce of parents but of their daughter filing for legal divorce, or emancipation, from them as well. The movie begins with what was the biggest moment in the trailer and other …

Black Sunday: Remastered Edition (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE MOVIE: Please Note: The stills used here are taken from the standard edition DVD issued by Kino and not the Blu-ray edition under review. This is my first exposure to the work of Mario Bava, but based on Black Sunday , I need to start seeking out his other films right quick
