DVD Savant: Robin Hood, Don Quixote, and All My Good Countrymen
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: The Adventures of Robin Hood - Errol Flynn's biggest hit comes to Blu-ray in a dazzling package containing all the extras of the previous 2-disc special edition; All My Good Countrymen - A casualty of the Prague Spring of 1968, Vojtech Jasny's Czechoslovakian national epic is a bittersweet account of fifteen deplorable years under Communist rule. A farming town doesn't so much as adapt, as succumb, as seen in the experiences of six close friends; and Orson Welles' Don Quixote - Jesus Franco butchers the partially-filmed remnants of a movie that Orson Welles struggled to film for twenty years, but could not finish. Some interesting material, mostly obscured by the need to turn a fragment into a commercial product. But definitely for Orson Welles completists. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
