DVD Savant Reviews: The Night of The Iguana and The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: The Night of the Iguana -
Topnotch John Huston direction results in a terrific Tennessee Williams adaptation; The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone -
A Tennessee Williams novella is the source for this strange tale; Guys and Dolls -
Sam Goldwyn bent Frank Loesser and Abe Burrows' stage show out of shape but the good far outweighs the clunkiness in this tuneful, big-music musical;
Creation of the Humanoids & War Between the Planets - Dark Sky's double bill gives us excellent color transfers of an indifferent Italian space opera; 71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance - a stylized examination of a dozen unhappy citizens living frustrated lives of isolation, bombarded by uncaring media messages; Summer Stock - Judy Garland objects to a pack of stage people overrunning her farm, but you'll never guess that they bring out her unsuspected talents; Oyster Farmer - A thief holes up in an Australian community that raises and harvests oyster delicacies, and grows to like the river community and its colorful inhabitants. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
