DVD Savant: 2001, No End in Sight and The Bost of It All
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Erik the Conqueror - Mario Bava's action-packed rip-off of The Vikings is great entertainment, with the director's visual qualities much in evidence;
Maurice Jarre: A Tribute to David Lean - An impressive 1992 concert is accompanied by a commentary, an interview and a separate CD version; No End in Sight - Charles Ferguson's sober docu stacks up the sorry chain of events that turned a fast victory in Iraq into a deplorable quagmire of incompetence and venality; Icons of Horror: Sam Katzman - Sony answers other studio collections of cult favorites with four fun (and often hilarious) monster shows from cheapjack producer Sam Katzman; 2001: A Space Odyssey Two-Disc Special Edition -
Warners' Stanley Kubrick collection includes a new transfer with the kind of extras that the director's space epic has deserved all along; The Boss of It All
Lars von Trier's offbeat comedy about heartless business practices is filmed in a perplexing process called "Automavision", which when seen demands an explanation, if not an apology. Very funny just the same. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
