It's here!: The Savant 2005 Favored Disc Roundup. With an essay about the state of studio library titles on DVD. Happy Holidays!
Savant's new reviews today are
Greetings! Not much news but busy times at hand: Kids coming home, celebrations shaping up. When he heard that it was a superior transfer, Savant went out and bought Scarlet Street immediately and reviewed it almost as fast. I remember this one putting a real chill in my bones one cold November in film school.
Gary Teetzel told me about this bit of Ray Harryhausen news - he's apparently exec producing a new short subject called The Pit and the Pendulum.
Elsewhere, Criterion has vacated its planned release of Luis Buñuel's Viridiana at least momentarily; hopefully it will be rescheduled soon. Savant keeps staring at his mailbox, but I don't think that will make the Warners' Peckinpah Westerns Boxed Set come any more quickly. That's all for now! Thanks, Glenn Erickson
