DVD Savant: Royal Flash, Amy of Shadows and Les Miserables
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Royal Flash - Richard Lester injects non-stop slapstick into George MacDonald Fraser's Captain Harry Flashman character; Army of Shadows - Jean-Pierre Melville's masterpiece of the French Resistance pits Lino Ventura, Paul Meurisse, Jean-Pierre Cassel and Simone Signoret against the German occupiers; Les Miserables -
A Victor Hugo double bill: the superior 1935 version and the 1952 remake; Tonight We Raid Calais - Annabella is against commando John Sutton's mission to blow up a German munitions plant, but the rest of the French patriots are only too eager to help; La belle captive - Alain Robbe-Grillet's dreamy art film is compromised by a blah transfer; Euro Fiends from Beyond the Grave - Retromedia's triple bill rounds up three earlier releases at a bargain price: The Faceless Monster, The Red Headed Corpse, Satanik. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
