Hello! Sorry we're so late. Savant's new reviews today are
An unnamed but well-connected source gave me this amazing link: Animator vs. Animation by Alan Becker. Don't stop, don't ask questions. Just open the window as wide as you can before you press 'Go.' It lasts about 3 minutes.
And when you're finished, check out this even wilder followup, Alan Becker's "Animator vs. Animation II". Thanks, Glenn Erickson

Hello, short post today: Eight reviews, no waiting! Just thought I'd pass on this link to a UK TV commercial that features our scaly old friends, the Gremlins. It looks very expensive! Thanks for reading, Glenn Erickson

Twister (Blu-ray)
Jan de Bont's tornado-chasing effects extravaganza is the ultimate Spielberg escapism movie, and it plays especially well in the Blu-ray format. With Helen Hunt, Bill Paxton, Jami Gertz, Cary Elwes and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Warners.

La roue
Abel Gance's legendary 1923 silent movie surfaces in a magnificent restoration -- all 4.5 hours of it! This story of love and loss in the family of a railroad engineer is a milestone of cinematic innovation, hailed as the next step past D.W. Griffith and a strong influence on the direction of world cinema. From Flicker Alley and Blackhawk.

Merrill's Marauders
Sam Fuller takes on the Burma campaign in this much admired but little-shown big scale battle epic. It's Jeff Chandler's last film. Warners.

Fox Western Classics
An excellent and budget priced trio of great 50s' oaters -- a classic, a good suspense picture and a cult oddity blending weird landscapes with the music of Bernard Herrmann: The Gunfighter, Rawhide, Garden of Evil. Fox.

The Delirious Fictions of William Klein
Art and fashion photographer turned filmmaker made these satirical and often politically daring comedies in France: Who Are You Polly Maggoo?, Mr. Freedom, The Model Couple. Their revival is a major find. Eclipse.
5/03/08
Irma Vep
Lee Broughton brings us a review of a Region 2 PAL disc of this 1996 Maggie Cheung film about a French director's attempt to remake Feuillade's Les vampires. Second Sight.

Z.P.G.
In a dystopian future, child-bearing is made a capital offense. Oliver Reed and Geraldine Chaplin star in a Sci-Fi story with good ideas but a murky execution. Legend Films.
5/03/08
Serial
A bawdy comedy from 1980 that assaults Marin County sexual libertarians with devastatingly funny jokes that don't quite add up to a coherent satire. Yet there's no denying that the farce has its good qualities -- mostly in its laugh quotient. Stars Martin Mull, Tuesday Weld, Bill Macy, Peter Bonerz, Tommy Smothers and Christopher Lee! Legend Films.
