DVD Savant: Nightmare Alley, Joan Crawford and Bette Davis Collections
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Nightmare Alley - one of the darkest noirs ever made and a justly acclaimed masterpiece, My Brilliant Career - a gentle but honest tale of a lass from the Outback who chooses an iffy writing career over settling down with the handsome Sam Neill, The Joan Crawford Collection - One MGM hit and Crawford's strongest Warners films comprise this five-disc collection, The Street with No Name - Richard Widmark's second noir hit is a stylish crime drama given the seal of approval from the FBI, Joseph Conrad's The Secret Agent - Bob Hoskins, Patricia Arquette and Robin Williams make strong impressions in this dark tale of anarchist skullduggery in London in the 1880s, Under the Flag of the Rising Sun - A searing realignment of history from Japanese director Kinji Fukasaku, an eye-opening film for generations of Japanese, that should be seen in this country too, The Bette Davis Collection - Warners wades into the deep-dish talent of America's greatest movie actress, with four of her major Warner hits and one straggler with an interesting theme and Heaven Can Wait - Ernst Lubitsch comes up with a Technicolor fantasy that surveys the life of a confirmed womanizer, even though he's happily married to Gene Tierney. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
