Savant's new reviews today are

The Accidental Tourist Warner
The Rules of the Game Criterion and
Cure Home Vision / American Cinematheque.

Another happy week in the land of DVDs. The Accidental Tourist is a title I've been hoping would come out for years.

Another slew of interesting titles showed up today including Fantoma's enticing new disc of Coppola's One from the Heart. I was working on the Zoetrope lot when the experimental musical was being shot in 1980, so I'll be looking forward to checking out the extras. I'm presently laboring over a pile of Soul Cinema discs, which are educational to this honky reviewer, to say the least. I also have some reviews of Warners classics ready that I can't post more than two weeks before street date. So why do I watch a disc that comes out in March now, when I can't review it for almost a month? Go figure.

I hope I haven't missed MGM's Love at Large, a personal favorite. MGM sometimes gets their review copies out late, so I'll hold on a few more days. It came out last Tuesday and is a romantic oddity that always struck me the right way. Back on Tuesday! Glenn Erickson
