DVD Savant: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Fearless, and Grey Gardens
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920) - This early silent horror drama showcases the talents of John Barrymore, whose stage-based performance is dated yet brilliant -- and can still get to the sensitive viewer; Fearless - Jeff Bridges, Isabella Rossellini and Rosie Perez are exceptionally good in Peter Weir and Rafael Yglesias' tale of a man who survives a plane crash and emerges with a feeling of inner peace but also the disturbing belief that he's physically invulnerable; and Grey Gardens - The Maysles Brothers' most felicitous films follows two fascinating leftovers from America's Society Set -- Big and Little Edie Bouvier, relatives of Jackie Onassis that in the 1970s were living in poverty in the near wreckage of a grand old house on the most exclusive part of Long Island. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
