This week the DVD Savant takes a look La Strada - Savant thought he'd seen it too many times, but it never looked or sounded as good as this, Pale Flower - Masahiro Shinoda's ode to nihilism is a yakuza noir, Lianna - John Sayles is back with another impressive, superior independent film from the 80s, Pretty Baby- A masterpiece Savant never saw, a censorship-blind look at prostitution eighty years ago with child actress Brooke Shields in the middle of it all. What Have I Done to Deserve This? - Pedro Almodóvar gives us the ultimate dysfunctional family, The Serpent and the Rainbow - Wes Craven's most worthwhile horror effort is a classy trip into terror via Hatian voodoo, The Solid Gold Cadillac - Judy Holliday shines in this early critique of corporate chicanery and Looney Tunes Premiere Collection - 28 of Termite Terrace's finest, this splinter collection of cartoons is a good cross-section of Warners fun. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
