DVD Savant - The Yakuza Papers
Even with the release of his book The DVD Savant has still been hard at work with another great bunch of reviews including: The Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection - a giant gift box with "special Christmas gift" written all over it, A Farewell to Arms - this Pre-Code weepie reinstates about ten minutes of material from old TV showings, and comes off as a very good old-fashioned romantic tragedy, Once Upon A Time in Mexico - Superbit - Robert Rodriguez can seemingly do every job in movies except punch out the sprocket holes, but this flashy action extravaganza is cynical and empty, The Yakuza Papers: Battles Without Honor and Humanity (The Box Set) - Kinji Fukasaku's gory epic marked the end of the formal Yakuza genre in Japan, and it's a complicated saga of four decades of gang warfare in Hiroshima after WW2, Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
