DVD Savant: Becket, Pulp and Thieves Like Us
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Becket - Peter O'Toole and Richard Burton's fine historical drama is resurrected in fine style; Pulp -
Michael Caine almost pulls off a clever black comedy about noir conventions, years before most people knew what noir was; Thieves Like Us -
Robert Altman's rural gangster tale is part laid-back storytelling and part excellent character study; The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (2005 "Remix") -
An interesting new attempt to recreate the 1919 Caligari by matting new actors into backgrounds lifted from the original; The Films of Alejandro Jodorowsky - Jodorowsky's long-unavailable major works surface in eye-popping versions; Play Dirty - Michael Caine and Nigel Davenport try to keep alive in the best cynical war adventure this side of The Dirty Dozen. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
