Greetings! Savant's new reviews today are
Hello again ... most of the late fall desirables are reported to be on their way, including Superman II The Richard Donner Cut, The Last Voyage, The Most Beautiful Wife, The Quiller Memorandum, Mothra vs. Godzilla, The Paul Newman Collection, The Glamour Girl Collection (Kino), The Conformist, The Dean Martin Double Feature (I hope they aren't painful), and Preston Sturges The Filmmaker Collection. One hotly desired title that missed its street date is Fox's The Kremlin Letter, and I'd like to know that it's not in any kind of legal bind, like the skipped Fox Noir title Boomerang!
As far as keeping up with the reviews goes, I'm being consistently late but not falling farther behind. If this were college I'd be pulling D's and F's, but .... (clever finish vanishes in mental fog) .... it's not college, so there.
I've been buying more discs lately and found a copy of the R2 BBC Quatermass TV Serials the other day ... when I get done watching all eight hours or so I might choke out a review, if it's wanted. The disc has been out quite a long time, but it's the kind of thing Savant can't resist.
Every once in a while when I'm too loopy to write, I'll google myself and see what's cookin' in the libel department. This time I found a Baking site about Cream Puffs that quotes my four-year-old Mildred Pierce Review in the weirdest way. It's down the page, at the May 11 entry, and no, I am not a cream puff.
Best to all and see you in a couple of days ... early word tells me that the new 007 Casino Royale is actually pretty good ... Thanks, Glenn Erickson
