ONE VOICE (not Ellsworth Monkton Toohey): Kind of an up-and-down week with some incredible films-to-digital from our friends at Criterion and The Masters of Cinema in the UK. The Complete Jean Vigo via Blu-ray is deserved of top-mention. "These are the witty, visually adventurous works of a pivotal film artist" - agreed! Lindsay Anderson’s If.... is memorable and impacting looking extremely film-like in 1080P. Masaki Kobayashi's Harakiri via Region 'B' Blu-ray - a masterful and tense humanist drama set in feudal Japan. I'm a huge fan of the Coen's The Big Lebowski but despite the pleasing extras and crisp audio the Universal Blu-ray image shows signs of DNR that provoke disappointment. The lad in me got a big kick out of the adventurous western The Treasure of Silver Lake - looking awesome on region-free Blu-ray and speaking of that genre - Soldier Blue deserves some accolades with an impressive transfer. Eric covered the challenging The Garden of the Finzi Contini from Vittorio De Sica comparing DVDs from both sides of the pond - ditto for Costa's Colossal Youth. Gregory diligently informs us of more essential Noir releases on the DVD format including the excellent The Red House with Edward G. and the style-heavy Fear in the Night - both in dire need of some hi-def/restoration love. Lastly, Julie Darling about a dysfunctional teenage girl with murderous tendencies was reviewed. Sounds interesting with the provocative Sybil Danning as a potential step-mother victim. Plus another take on the aging-story The Secret of Dorian Gray Have a super week!

  THIS WEEK's REVIEWS / COMPARISONS
 

Julie Darling - Young Julie (Isabelle Mejias, MEATBALLS III) loves three things in her life: her daddy Harold (Anthony Franciosa, TENEBRAE), chess, and her eight-foot pet python. She hates a lot of things, but her mother Irene (Cindy Girling, MEATBALLS) is at the top of the list. When Irene gets rid of the snake and wants to send Julie to camp, Julie flies into a rage. Fortunately (for Julie), grocery delivery man Weston (Paul Hubbard, FUNERAL HOME) accidentally kills Irene during an attempted rape before fleeing town. Now Julie has her father to herself; that is, until he introduces her to stepmom Susan (Sybil Danning, THE HOWLING II), who has a son of her own Dennis (Benjamin Scholl). DVD Release Date: August 2nd, 2011

Fear in the Night - A steady contributor to filmmaking from 1937 to 1956, Maxwell Shane penned screenplays for nearly sixty films, but sat in the director’s chair for only five, which, according to Spencer Selby Dark City: The Film Noir, can all be classified as noirs: Fear in the Night (1947), City Across the River (1949), The Glass Wall (1953), The Naked Street (1955), and Nightmare (1956, a remake of his own Fear in the Night). Evidently, Shane appreciated Woolrich's conception for the novelette “Nightmare” because he not only scripted and directed two versions of it, but in adapting it to film, he retained most of the original material and captured much of the author’s atmospheric style and thematic intent. DVD Release Date: June 24th, 2003

Harakiri BD - In a magnificent performance, Tatsuya Nakadai (Yojimbo, The Face of Another, Ran) stars as Hanshiro Tsugumo, a masterless down-and-out samurai who enters the manor of Lord Iyi, requesting to commit ritual suicide on his property. Suspected of simply fishing for charity, Hanshiro is told the gruesome tale of the last samurai who made the same request but Hanshiro will not be moved...
Blu-ray Release Date: September 26th, 2011

The Complete Jean Vigo BD - Even among cinema’s legends, Jean Vigo stands apart. The son of a notorious anarchist, Vigo had a brief but brilliant career making poetic, lightly surrealist films before his life was cut tragically short by tuberculosis at age twenty-nine. Like the daring early works of his contemporaries Jean Cocteau and Luis Buñuel, Vigo’s films refused to play by the rules. This set includes all of Vigo’s titles: À propos de Nice, an absurdist, rhythmic slice of life from the bustling coastal city; Taris, an inventive short portrait of a swimming champion; Zéro de conduite, a radical, delightful tale of boarding-school rebellion that has influenced countless filmmakers; and L’Atalante, widely regarded as one of cinema’s finest achievements, about newlyweds beginning their life together on a canal barge. These are the witty, visually adventurous works of a pivotal film artist.

If.... BD - British cinema – and particularly that of the 1940s, 50s and 60s – tugs violently at itself from within. On the one hand, there is the social realist impulse, as exemplified by such films as ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning’ (1960) and ‘The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner’ (1962). And on the other, there are the flighty excursions into the fantastic and the dreamlike, such as the work of both Powell & Pressburger and the Hammer studio. Lindsay Anderson’s masterful ‘If….’ (1968) at once drags these polar traditions together; expands on their possibilities; and, from their tense juxtaposition, derives a rare poetry and force.
Blu-ray Release Date: August 30th, 2011

The Big Lebowski BD - Released in 1998 the Coen brothers film The Big Lebowski introduces us to characters that are stuck in the 70's and who are unable or unwilling to adapt to the 90's. The story continues with a focal backdrop of the unique community that has fashioned itself around the American pastime of... bowling. The Coens also found time in the films 118 minutes to pay homage to past film genre's including westerns and Busby Berkley musicals.
Blu-ray Release Date: August 16th, 20111

Colossal Youth - Many of the lost souls of Ossos and In Vanda’s Room return in the spectral landscape of Colossal Youth, which brings to Pedro Costa’s Fontainhas films a new theatrical, tragic grandeur. This time, Costa focuses on Ventura, an elderly immigrant from Cape Verde living in a low-cost housing complex in Lisbon, who has been abandoned by his wife and spends his days visiting his neighbors, whom he considers his “children.” What results is a form of ghost story, a tale of derelict, dispossessed people living in the past and present at the same time, filmed by Costa with empathy and startling radiance. Masters of Cinema DVD Release Date: August 22nd, 2011

The Secret of Dorian Gray - Dorian Gray (Helmut Berger, THE DAMNED) is a handsome and wealthy yet sheltered young man living in swinging sixties London. When he poses for a painting by artist friend Basil Hallward (Richard Todd, ASYLUM), he is noticed by cynical and decadent Lord Henry Wotton (Herbert Lom, THE PINK PANTHER) and his sister Alice (Maria Rohm, EUGENIE - THE STORY OF HER JOURNEY INTO PERVERSION). While he is falling under the thrall of Lord Henry's decadent philosophies, he also falls in love at first sight with unknown actress Sybil Vane (Marie Liljedahl, EUGENE - THE STORY OF HER JOURNEY INTO PERVERSION) rehearsing Shakespeare. Henry make Dorian aware and resentful of the eventuality of his loss of youth and beauty (and the reminders of it in the eternally youthful painting and Sybil's dreams of their future together). DVD Release Date: May 17th, 2011

The Red House - On the outskirts of a rural town, an isolated farm hosts a small family with a dark secret. At the heart of the neighboring forest sits the red house, terrorizing trespassers with the sound of horrific screams emanating from within its walls. The solitary family keeps the knowledge of the house closely guarded, but when a stranger comes to the farm to help with chores, the web of secrecy begins to unravel. The violence that scarred the family begins to revisit the land and threatens to destroy them all. Filled with noir-ish motifs and striking lighting, The Red House brings together breathtaking drama and chilling horror. Edward G. Robinson is masterful as the burdened recluse, and Julie London is seductive as a spoiled schoolgirl. VCI DVD Release Date: March 28, 2006

The Treasure of Silver Lake BD - In order to get the treasure map of Silver Lake, the unscrupulous Colonel Brinkley (Herbert Lom - The Mysterious Island) cold-bloodedly murders the father of young Fred Engel (Götz George). But, it seems, the father only had one-half of the map, the other one belongs to the farmer Patterson. Without further ado Brinkley, and his band of thieves, kidnap his beautiful daughter, Ellen Patterson (Karin Dor - You Only Live Twice). Hot on the case are blood-brothers Old Shatterhand (Lex Barker of Tarzan fame) and his faithful Apache companion Winnetou - in pursuit of olde-west justice. Infringing in the land of Utah Indians, they are attacked and must negotiate. Will they ever thwart the ruthless band of criminals who will stop at nothing to retrieve the treasure of Silver Lake?
Blu-ray Release date: December 3rd, 2010

Soldier Blue BD - After a cavalry group is massacred by the Cheyenne, only two survivors remain: Honus, a naive private devoted to his duty, and Cresta, a young woman who had lived with the Cheyenne two years and whose sympathies lie more with them than with the US government. Together, they must try to reach the cavalry's main base camp. As they travel onward, Honus is torn between his growing affection for Cresta, and his disgust for her anti-American beliefs. They reach the cavalry campsite on the eve of an attack on a Cheyenne village, where Honus will learn which side has really been telling him the truth.
Blu-ray Release date: June 23rd, 2011

The Garden of the Finzi Contini - The wealthy Jewish-Italian Finzi Contini family live in a world of their own in their walled garden and villa in the Italian town of Ferrera. Home-schooled, terminally-ill Alberto (Helmut Berger, CONVERSATION PIECE) and his icy sister Micol (Dominique Sanda, THE CONFORMIST) rarely leave the estate; rather, they invite friends in to play on their tennis courts. For their friends, including Micol's childhood sweetheart Giorgio (Lino Capolicchio, THE HOUSE WITH THE LAUGHING WINDOWS), the garden of the Finzi Contini also allows them to shut out anxieties over the encroachment of fascism and Naziism and what that means for the town's large Jewish population (Giorgio has already been kicked out of the town's tennis club and may not be able to receive his degree).
