ONE VOICE (not Ellsworth Monkton Toohey): Another week where I enjoyed so many great film. I really feel fortunate at times. Edward Dmytryk's The Young Lions really impressed me - as much as the Twilight Time Blu-ray presentation. Just as fascinating and also from Twilight Time, Anatole Litvak's The Night of the Generals was an engrossing Blu-ray viewing experience. The bonus about John Schlesinger's Far From the Madding Crowd is that Blu-rays are available, with varying attributes - on both sides of the Atlantic. Owning one is certainly recommended! I continue to champion Monte Walsh - a primo western treat via Blu-ray - again geographical options exist. Something about Lili Fini Zanuck's 1991 film Rush always pleases me - and it's now available on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber. I'm in the positive camp for Cameron Crowe's Vanilla Sky - remake of the Spanish film Open Your Eyes (1997). Although there is an isue with the alternate-ending version offered on the new Warner Blu-ray - it is stacked with extras and has plenty of value, IMO. Ruben Östlund's Force Majeure is a thought-provoking film and the Artificial Eye Blu-ray is reviewed. The early 80's horror-thriller modern creature-feature Wolfen with Albert Finney has been re-watched many times in my Home theater - and the Blu-ray significantly advances on the old DVD. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and Luigi Cozzi's Contamination 'takes' liberally from many space-horror classics, but its another modest budgeted film that appeals to me and is available on a loaded Blu-ray from Arrow in UK and US. Finally we get a decent Blu-ray, with thanks to Arrow, for Neil Jordan's Mona Lisa - the surprisingly impacting British classic crime-romance. Hungry for Blaxploitation cinema? Truck Turner with Isaac Hayes, Yaphet Kotto and Nichelle "Uhura" Nichols can surely sate your appetite. The uncomfortable but highly effective horror Deranged exports realism that produces unforgettable chills and is on Blu-ray from Kino Lorber in the US. The Crimson Cult, also on Blu-ray from KL, sports a stellar cast with Christopher Lee, Boris Karloff and Barbara Steele... but I have never really embraced the film. On DVD this week, Gregory compared two more from The Whistler series star Richard Dix; Voice of the Whistler and Mysterious Intruder - both highly recommended to fans of vintage crime dramas. Eric reviewed the highly touted Italian TV series Fog and Crimes Season 2 plus the comedy Cupcakes Stay safe till I see you next week! - "It's funny, but practically all the people I know were strangers when I met them." Veronica Lake to Alan Ladd in The Blue Dahlia.

  THIS WEEK's REVIEWS / COMPARISONS
 

Mona Lisa BD - Writer-director Neil Jordan’s breakthrough film is a brilliant, noir-infused love story. Bob Hoskins (who snagged an Oscar nomination for his performance) plays George, a small-time loser employed as a chauffeur to an enigmatic, high-class call girl. His fascination with her leads him on a dangerous quest through the sordid underbelly of London, where love is a weakness to be exploited and betrayed. Arrow Blu-ray Release Date: July 6th, 2015

Far From the Madding Crowd BD - Headstrong and passionate Bathsheba Everdene (Julie Christie) unexpectedly inherits a large farm in rural Dorset. Struggling to manage the farm herself, she captivates the hearts and minds of three very different men: an honest and hardworking sheep farmer (Alan Bates), a wealthy but tortured landowner (Peter Finch), and a reckless and violent swordsman (Terence Stamp). But as emotions become entangled, free spirited and innocent folly soon leads to devastating tragedy. Studio Canal Blu-ray Release Date: June 1st, 2015

Vanilla Sky BD - Tom Cruise delivers one of his finest performances in this unforgettably powerful film that reunites him with his Jerry Maguire director, Cameron Crowe. Young, handsome and wealthy, publishing tycoon David Aames (Cruise) can have anything his heart desires. Still, David's charmed life seems incomplete. One night, David meets the woman of his dreams (Penélope Cruz) and believes he may have found the missing piece. But a fateful encounter with a jealous lover (Cameron Diaz) suddenly sends David's world out of control, rocketing him on a roller-coaster ride of romance, sex, suspicion and dreams...to a shocking, final awakening you will never forget. Blu-ray Release date: June 30th, 2015

Truck Turner BD - Isaac Hayes puts his gun where his groove is in his role as hard-case bounty hunter Mack "Truck" Turner, three years after composing the legendary score for Shaft (1971). Ex-football star turned skip-tracer, Turner specializes in bringing in the criminals police are too scared to chase, and when he's hired to capture sociopathic pimp Gator (Paul Harris), he finds himself confronted by the most vicious killers in the underground scene. Little does Turner know that Gator's woman, Dorinda (Nichelle Nichols), has a deep-running cold streak of vengeance, and has hired ruthless hit man Harvard Blue (Yaphet Kotto), as well as a legion of other like-minded and equally determined assassins, to snuff out Truck's supercharged motor once and for all. It's now up to Truck to keep his cool long enough to get to the source of the seemingly endless stream of bullets that come at increasingly unsettling intervals. Blu-ray Release Date: July 7th, 2015

Rush (1991) BD - What happens when two cops stop loving their job...and start living it? This 'emotionally riveting, powerful and unsparing film (Variety) exposes the plight of two narcotics officers who cross the line...and become enmeshed in the dangerous but intoxicating underbelly of the drug world. Jason Patric (Your Friends and Neighbors) and Golden Globe nominee* Jennifer Jason Leigh (Dolores Claiborne) give rich, full-blooded performances (Entertainment Weekly) as undercover officers Jim Raynor and Kristen Cates, partners who become lovers and addicts as they infiltrate the local drug scene in order to bring down a suspected druglord (Greg Allman). But as their relationship intensifies and their drug use turns to abuse, the fine line between the good guys and the bad guys becomes as blurry as their drug-induced vision. Kino Lorber Blu-ray Release Date: July 14th, 2015

Deranged BD - Roberts Blossom gives an alarmingly convincing performance as rural eccentric Ezra Cobb, whose mother's death unhinges him to the point where he not only lovingly preserves her corpse in the living room but also goes out to find 'friends' to keep her company not all of whom are dead when he finds them! Perversely, Ezra's more worried about what mother would say about his various activities than he is about the prospect of being found out. Indeed, like Gein, he's cheerfully open about his activities when visiting friends, but no-one believes him. Kino Lorber Blu-ray Release Date: July 7th, 2015

The Crimson Cult BD - When his brother disappears, Robert Manning (Mark Eden) pays a visit to the remote country house he was last heard from. Whilst his host Squire Morley (Christopher Lee) is outwardly welcoming - and his house-keeper`s beautiful niece Eve (Virginia Wetherell) his niece willing to fulfil his needs - Manning detects a feeling of menace in the air with the legend of Lavinia (Barbara Steele), the Black Witch of Greymarsh, hanging over everything. Will the village's renowned expert on witchcraft, Professor John Marshe (Boris Karloff), be able to shed light on the wicked going-ons at Craxted Lodge? This adaptation from Lovecraft`s `Dream in the Witch House` was shot in Grims Dyke, the allegedly haunted house of W S Gilbert of Gilbert and Sullivan fame. It is remarkable for being the only time that Lee, Karloff and Steele appeared in the same film and is also the last British film to star Karloff, which was innovatively filmed by John Coquillon. Kino Lorber Blu-ray Release Date: July 7th, 2015

Force Majeure BD - This wickedly funny and precisely observed psychodrama tells the story of a model Swedish family handsome businessman Tomas, his willowy wife Ebba and their two blond children on a skiing holiday in the French Alps. The sun is shining and the slopes are spectacular but during a lunch at a mountainside restaurant, an avalanche suddenly bears down on the happy diners. With people fleeing in all directions and his wife and children in a state of panic, Tomas makes a decision that will shake his marriage to its core and leave him struggling to reclaim his role as family patriarch. Blu-ray Release date: June 29th, 2015

Monte Walsh BD - A stunning debut Western for cameraman-turned-director Fraker, chronicling the death of an era as two cowboys (Marvin and Palance) ride into town to find that a bleak winter has brought hard times. Eastern capital has moved in with new methods, jobs are hard to come by, and the pair buckle down to the only work they can get, watching morosely as more and more men are laid off. Gradually the mood darkens. An old cowboy, ending his days in the humbling task of fence-mending, rides his horse crazily over a cliff. Old friends disappear, to return with the law on their heels as desperation drives them to rustling or robbery. Palance (brilliantly cast against type) decides to quit and become a storekeeper; and Marvin, after proving something to himself by taming a bronc no one else could handle, proves something else by rounding on the owner of a Wild West show who offers him a job ('I ain't spittin' on my whole life'). Kino Lorber Blu-ray Release Date: July 28th, 2015

Wolfen BD - Wolfen, a frightening horror movie based upon a novel by Whitley Strieber, concerns Detective Dewey Wilson (Albert Finney), who gets assigned to investigate the strange murder of a millionaire and his wife in a downtown park. Wilson and his friend, city coroner Whittington (Gregory Hines), aided by criminal psychologist Rebecca Neff (Diane Venora) connect the killing to those of several others, primarily winos, drug addicts and derelicts, all of whom seem to have been mutilated by wild animals. Their search leads them to a group of Native Americans led by Edward James Olmos who tell them of a legend of a superior species that once roamed the area, but now are living and hunting in the slums of New York. The film is engrossing, frightening and intelligent, with sensational special effects. Director Michael Wadleigh uses these effects to great advantage, frequently showing the movements of the characters through the eyes of the "Wolfen." This film is also the screen debut of Hines. Blu-ray Release Date: June 2nd, 2015

The Night of the Generals BD - Anatole Litvak directs and Sam Spiegel produces The Night of the Generals (1967), an unusual World War II crime thriller about a Nazi investigation into the murder of a prostitute. Major Grau (Omar Sharif) finds himself focusing on three suspects: the Generals Tanz (Peter O’Toole), Kahlenberg (Donald Pleasence) and Seydlitz-Gabler (Charles Gray) – all three of whom, it seems, are also involved in a plot to kill Hitler. Also starring Tom Courtenay, Joanna Pettet and Philippe Noiret, shot by the great Henri Decaë and featuring a score by Maurice Jarre, available on this Twilight Time release as an isolated track. Blu-ray Release date: June, 2015

Contamination BD - A cargo ship drifts up the Hudson River. Its crew: all dead, their bodies horribly mutilated, turned inside out by an unknown force. Its freight: boxes upon boxes of glowing, pulsating green eggs. It soon becomes clear that these eggs are not of this planet, and someone intends to cultivate them here on Earth. But who? And to what end? Blu-ray Release date: July 6-7th, 2015

The Young Lions BD - A World War II epic, The Young Lions (1958), based on the Irwin Shaw best-seller, interweaves the stories of three soldiers: an apolitical German (Marlon Brando) caught up in a conflict he doesn’t understand, a Jewish American (Montgomery Clift) forced to suffer anti-Semitism from his fellow servicemen, and a sophisticated coward (Dean Martin) forced into war against his will. Also starring Maximilian Schell (in his first Hollywood role), Hope Lange, Barbara Rush and May Britt, and featuring a sweeping score by the great Hugo Friedhofer, available on this Twilight Time release as an isolated track. Blu-ray Release date: June, 2015

Voice of the Whistler - Richard Dix is perfectly cast as the burned-out magnate looking for a new lease on life after years of cut-throat competition at the top. In fact he looks like he's at tether's end until he meets the sweet blonde nurse. ( Prophetically, the alcoholic Dix would die a few short years later). However, the chummy stroll with cabbie Rhys Williams along poverty row is rather overdone, while the roomful of cheerful clinic patients smacks of pure Hollywood pretense. On the other hand, the converted lighthouse amounts to an inspired bit of "mise-en-scene", with a moonlit seascape that stretches into a glimpse of eternity and a perfect backdrop for the events that follow. DVD Release Date: June 2nd, 2015

Mysterious Intruder - The movie starts off posing a neat little mystery-- why would anyone want to kill for some worthless old keepsakes. The solution is a novel one, although the story sometimes unfolds in a complex fashion that's hard to follow. There're some nifty little touches, such as the trigger-happy neighbor who apparently shoots at anything that moves or the safe-house matron who looks like she could go a few rounds with Mike Tyson. However, not everything is roses. Little old man Stillwell should carry a sugar-overload warning, while plug-ugly Mike Mazurki mugs it up shamelessly as the towering menace. The bare-bones street scenes might blemish most movies, but here they come across as just plain cheap like Gale himself. DVD Release Date: June 2nd, 2015

Cupcakes - From Eytan Fox the director of YOSSI, comes this extravagant and unashamedly entertaining Eurovision parody featuring a feel-good soundtrack provided by Babydaddy from the Scissor Sisters. Set in contemporary Tel Aviv, six diverse best friends gather to watch the wildly popular UniverSong competition. Appalled by the Israeli entry, they decide to create their own and record it on a mobile phone. Unbeknownst to them, their performance is seen by the UniverSong judges and selected as Israel's entry for next year's competition. With bright, Almodóvar-esque styling, irresistibly catchy tunes and a gloriously uplifting storyline, this laugh-out-loud comedy is a refreshing ode to music, friendship and romance. DVD Release Date: June 9th, 2015

Fog and Crimes Season 2 - The complete second season of the Italian TV crime drama. In the seemingly tranquil countryside of Northern Italy, Police Chief Soneri (Luca Barbareschi) works together with a faithful team to solve a series of gruesome and disturbing mysteries that occur in the wealthy surrounding area. DVD Release Date: May 11th, 2015
