Saturday June 4, 2005 (a day early, I know)

Savant's new reviews today are

The Man Who Never Was  Fox
L'Argent  New Yorker
Ronin Gai  Home Vision Entertainment and
The Driver  Fox

No big news tonight. I have both the Bette Davis and Joan Crawford sets and will be trying to do justice to them without writing the usual Savant encyclopedia. No, I am not practicing to be paid by the word.

The more avid Kaiju fans will be interested to know that correspondent Gary Teetzel has reported that the Japanese Daei film studio has announced they'll be doing another Gamera movie soon. It won't be a sequel to the popular trilogy from a few years back, but a whole new film apparently harkening back to the originals and Gamera's reputation as a "friend of all children." Daei denies that the plot has Gamera building an amusement park at his home, admitting that he sometimes sleeps with children, and being arrested for child molestation.

Couldn't resist. Thanks for reading and the correction re: The Program as the film where the football players lie down in the middle of a highway for kicks. Thanks, Glenn Erickson
