DVD Savant: Chicago 10, Brand Upon the Brain, and Pete Kelly's Blues
Chicago 10 This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Chicago 10 - Brett Morgen adds animation to flesh out Nixon's show trial, creating a strong contrast with the excellent coverage of the '68 Chicago riots. History's verdict may come down on the side of the protesters -- and maybe not; Brand Upon the Brain! - Guy Maddin's utterly mad tale of family struggles, dark secrets and strange disguises takes place in a fantasy lighthouse, filtered through Maddin's fractured silent film technique; and Pete Kelly's Blues - I don't care if the movie has problems, it's still a terrific experience. Jack Webb crams his 1920s bandstand 'n' gangsters epic with great music and singing from Ella Fitzgerald and Peggy Lee. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
