DVD Savant: 52 Pick-Up, The Night Porter, and Bloody Sunday
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: 52 Pick-Up - Powerhouse director John Frankenheimer takes on Elmore Leonard's dark, dark tale of a philandering businessman (Roy Scheider) blackmailed by sleazy crooks from the porn industry; The Night Porter - It sounds like 'Nazista' trash -- an ex-concentration camp victim re-ignites an insane sadomasochistic relationship with her former captor, a sadistic SS officer -- but it's actually a reasoned examination of the sexual politics of Fascism done with class and taste; and Bloody Sunday - Before his Hollywood success writer-director Paul Greenglass took the big prize at Sundance with this convincing, compelling docudrama recreation of the 1972 Bloody Sunday Massacre in Derry, Northern Ireland.
Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
