DVD Savant: Scarlet Street, The Five Pennies and David Lynch Short Films
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Scarlet Street - Kino presents Fritz Lang's American masterpiece in an excellent remastered edition; Thèrése Raquin - Marcel Carné turns Émile Zola's blood-curdling guignol piece of murderous realism into a standard murder blackmail story; The Five Pennies - Danny Kaye almost makes this beautifully shot musical biography work; Imagine: John Lennon - this soothing biography of the pacifist poet Beatle is largely told through recordings from Lennon himself; The Short Films of David Lynch - David Lynch goes public with a selection of his works early and recent, from bizarre creepy-crawlies to a 100% weird anti-western; Gallipoli Special Collector's Edition - Peter Weir's beautiful film about the horror of war comes down to one basic issue, the waste of good men; Eat the Rich - A smorgasbord of Brit comedians are splattered across this mostly dreadfully unfunny "wild" comedy; Face (Kao) - a droll and curiously affirming quirky comedy about a plain-faced murderess who discovers life on the run from the law. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
