DVD Savant: The Friends of Eddie Coyle, Hoop Dreams, and The Way Things Go
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: The Friends of Eddie Coyle - Robert Mitchum is superb as an aging Boston hood who turns squealer in hopes of avoiding a prison term. Unfortunately, the ruthless web of deceit and informing in the Beantown underworld puts him at a lethal disadvantage; Hoop Dreams - Three filmmakers followed two disadvantaged Chicago neighborhood boys for five years, as they pursued their goal of becoming big-time NBA basketball players; and The Way Things Go - A pair of Swiss artists / mechanics / chemical engineers fashion an astonishingly varied and intricate Rube Goldberg machine that takes a full thirty minutes to play out. It's a seemingly endless set of mechanical cause & effect actions.
Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
