DVD Savant: The Godfather Pt II, Hoop Dreams and House of Bamboo
This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: House of Bamboo - Sam Fuller's CinemaScope & color film noir is also a travelog of postwar Tokyo, Hoop Dreams - a miraculous 3-hour examination of the high school years of two basketball hopefuls, potential NBA superstars, Anna and the King of Siam - Irene Dunne and Rex Harrison match wits and sentiments as an English teacher and a Siamese monarch, The Phantom of Liberty Luis Bunuel gives us a crash course in sly surrealist theory in this maddeningly bizarre anti-narrative, A Farewell to Arms - David O'Selznick's last superproduction is a micromanaged disappointment, with mismatched actors imitating ill-fated lovers swept up in WW1 Italy, The Stone Boy - a 1984 sleeper that became a hit on cable TV, The Godfather Part II - Francis Coppola's sequel to his blockbuster is an even better picture, with deeper thematics and a more resonant story and The Detective - Frank Sinatra is a tough guy hero in a movie that sends a lot of mixed signals about police corruption. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
