DVD Savant: Black Book, Rocky and Bullwinkle and The Fly Collection
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: The Threepenny Opera -
Crummy versions begone -- Criterion's new disc from a recent German restoration makes the Brecht-Weill musical look and sound like it was filmed yesterday; Spider Baby -
The transfer for this disc of Jack Hill's creepazoid horror thriller is simply excellent, and Dark Sky has arranged some equally excellent extras; The Best of Rocky and Bullwinkle Volume 2 -
All R&B and nothing but R&B, this super sampler gives us three entire multi-part Rocky & Bullwinkle adventures, in all their anarchic glory; Cinema 16 European Short Films (Special U.S. Edition) -
A classy collection of sixteen European short subjects from directors old and new, including 'first films' from people like Ridley Scott; Black Book -
Paul Verhoeven returns to his Soldier of Orange roots for an exciting, intelligent and sexy resistance espionage tale in 1944 Holland; Away From Her -
Julie Christie, Gordon Pinsent and Olympia Dukakis shine in Sarah Polley's masterful examination of a couple pulled apart by Alzheimer's disease; The Fly Collection -
Fox recycles The Fly and Return of the Fly adding the second sequel, the weird The Curse of the Fly from 1965, with Brian Donlevy. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
