DVD Savant: The Great Dictator, Hair, and Park Row
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: The Great Dictator - Charlie Chaplin's lampoon of Hitler, Mussolini and fascist treachery is a comedy riot, but viewers forget what a courageous act of political effrontery it is; Hair - It's not really the original anti-war theatrical experience that premiered in 1968, but Milos Forman's 1979 movie version is both bigger, more expansive and exhilarating; and Park Row - Sam Fuller's ode to journalism is a powerfully patriotic and inspirational film about the American institution of the Free Press. When's the last time you saw a movie that made printer's ink and extra editions seem masculine and gutsy? Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
