DVD Savant: The Island of Dr. Moreau, Magician, and A Man for All Seasons
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews and articles including: The Island of Dr. Moreau - this colorful version of what was once a shocking tale of obscene science, is now little more than an action movie with monsters that look like they belong on the funny pages; Magician: The Astonishing Life & Works of Orson Welles - Chuck Workman's entertaining docu gives the amazing Orson's fascinating career a spirited once-over, with excellent vintage interviews focusing on some of the main puzzles and controversies of a highly creative life; and A Man for All Seasons - Paul Scofield leads an excellent cast as Thomas More, the man who resisted the will of Henry VIII over an issue of conscience... a superior drama in all respects, one of the best historical / costume stories ever.
Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
