DVD Savant: Miracle of Morgan's Creek & Universal's Legacy Collection
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: The Miracle of Morgan's Creek - One of the funniest talking pictures ever made, the tale of Trudy Kockenlocker and Norval Jones pushes the limit on every no-no in the production code book; Terror by Night -
A weak Basil Rathbone-Nigel Bruce Sherlock Homes programmer is given a fine B&W transfer, and a second near-unwatchable colorized pass; The Moon and Sixpence - Albert Lewin's most accomplished movie is a rumination on the alienation of artists to society; The Doctor and the Devils -
Mel Brooks produced this almost-great version of the Burke & Hare story, with a partially miscast group of great actors. Also the latest round from the Universal Legacy Series: To Kill a Mockingbird - One of the country's favorite movies comes back in an edition combining old and new extras, The Sting - George Roy Hill reteamed with Newman and Redford for a smartly calculated thriller and The Deer Hunter -
Michael Cimino's big prizewinner is a gloriously filmed and directed epic. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
