DVD Savant: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Breathless, and Flesh
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Michael Douglas and Milos Forman's multi-Oscar winner returns in a deluxe, goodie-filled gift box. Prisoner Jack Nicholson causes trouble for the unyielding nurse Louise Fletcher, leading a popular revolt among his fellow asylum patients; Breathless - Jean-Luc Godard bursts into the French New Wave with this quirky pastiche of Yankee pulp fiction and Parisian attitude. Complete with celebrated jump-cuts and other measures intended to outrage viewers coddled by traditional Hollywood continuity; and Flesh - John Ford does journeyman duty on this MGM vehicle for its star Wallace Beery, who plays a 'gentle giant' German wrestler taken in by an American crook and his dishonest girlfriend. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
