Savant gets to re-premiere a review (I read it again, it's not bad) and talk about another fairly obscure movie today. Big titles come out, Savant reviews something you've never heard of: It's the Law.

Warners' Mildred Pierce is making a comeback, at least the review here at DVD Savant is - we didn't know, but we weren't supposed to post it earlier than two weeks before street date. The Joan Crawford Oscar vehicle is worth repeating, however - it's one of the best movies of the forties.

Image's The Ice Runner was a film that Savant followed during filming, because people I knew (trailermakers, actually) went to Russia to film it. It's got some unique properties, but didn't turn out as they expected - between the time they handed it over to the producer, and it came out, new writers and editors had ... done things to it. With Edward Albert and Victor Wong, and a large Russian cast, including Caribou & a polar bear.

The reviews coming out in the next week are all arcane, interesting, but none of them are from anything newer than 1960 .... hope this doesn't turn you off! I have my Kino METROPOLIS review pretty much solidified, but I'm going to wait until a bit closer to street date to help out the distributors as much as possible. Thanks for reading! Glenn Erickson
