ONE VOICE (not Ellsworth Monkton Toohey): Plenty to talk about this week with Criterion's Blu-ray of Akira Kurosawa's Ikiru reigning in top spot for the brilliant package and enduring film. Magnificent. I also enjoyed Flicker Alley's dual-Blu-ray set of Chaplin's Essanay Comedies - start your film-night with one of these comedic shorts! Arrow offer another restored and stacked Blu-ray from a masterwork of the Czech New Wave - Closely Observed Trains - is a farcical bitter-sweet comedy that may be the most endearing from its genre. For Whom the Bell Tolls with Gary Cooper and a radiant Ingrid Bergman is a very pleasant surprise on Blu-ray out of Germany. Pure pleasure. Michael Ritchie's underrated Downhill Racer get a Criterion Blu-ray release and the breathtakingly fast and furious imagery make it ripe for 1080P. Harold Lloyd in Speedy was his last silent feature and a great one - now also on Blu-ray from Criterion. Ang Lee's Sense and Sensibility is a romantic and witty adaptation of Jane Austen's novel and Twilight Time have brought it to Blu-ray in a strong a/v transfer with commentaries and supplements. Perhaps two more guilty pleasures would be the cult-favorite Blood and Lace with a slumming Gloria Grahame and excellent support cast - now on Shout! Factory Blu-ray and One Deadly Summer with a scantily clad Isabelle Adjani buoying the mysterious drama - bumped to Blu-ray from Bayview Entertainment. Takashi Murakami's Jellyfish Eyes - a childhood fantasy gets a Criterion Blu-ray release and the film shows depth and value. Tinto Brass' The Voyeur dramatically advances via a Blu-ray transfer from Cult Epics but the Bunraku drama The Lovers' Exile scrimps technically with a flawed rendering. Disappointment of the week is Krzysztof Kieslowski's The Decalogue given an unnecessary widescreen transfer to Blu-ray from TVP. A fatally poor choice. On DVD Eric covered Vojtech Jasný's All My Good Countrymen - an exceptional Czech from 1985 released in SD by Second Run in the UK. Mr. Cotenas also had time to cover the critically acclaimed Mala Mala - a documentary about the power of transformation. I had a wonderful shock with a stellar 14-year old DVD from VCI - the atmospheric Brit horror The City of the Dead is given the royal treatment - restored - looking and sounding fabulous and hosting many entertaining extras including 2 commentaries - check it out!... ..:“Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary." - John Keating/Robin Williams in Dead Poets Society (1989) Have a gentle and observant week!


	THIS WEEK's REVIEWS / COMPARISONS
	For Whom the Bell Tolls BD - Based on the novel by Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls is a romantic drama set against the turbulent tapestry of the Spanish Civil War. Gary Cooper plays Robert Jordan, an idealistic American fighting with a Spanish guerilla band. He is assigned to blow up a crucial bridge in order to halt the enemy's progress. He falls in love with Maria (Ingrid Bergman), a young peasant girl who's joined the fight after being ill-used by enemy troops. Pablo (Akim Tamiroff), the eternally drunken leader of the guerillas, resents Jordan's attentions toward Maria, and he refuses to help Jordan in his sabotage work. Pablo's wife Pilar (Oscar-winner Katina Paxinou) takes over command of the guerillas and helps Jordan by arranging horses for the band's departure after their job is done. Blu-ray Release date: July 9th, 2015 Speedy BD - Speedy was the last silent feature to star Harold Lloyd—and one of his very best. The slapstick legend reprises his “Glasses Character,” this time as a good-natured but scatterbrained New Yorker who can’t keep a job. He finally finds his true calling when he becomes determined to help save the city’s last horse-drawn streetcar, which is operated by his sweetheart’s crusty grandfather. From its joyous visit to Coney Island to its incredible Babe Ruth cameo to its hair-raising climactic stunts on the city’s streets, Speedy is an out-of-control love letter to New York that will have you grinning from ear to ear. Blu-ray Release date: December 8th, 2015 Jellyfish Eyes BD - The world-famous artist Takashi Murakami made his directorial debut with Jellyfish Eyes, taking his boundless imagination to the screen in a tale of friendship and loyalty that also addresses humanity’s propensity for destruction. After moving to a country town with his mother following his father’s death, a young boy befriends a charming, flying, jellyfish-like sprite—only to discover that his schoolmates have similar friends, and that neither they nor the town itself are what they seem to be. Pointedly set in a post-Fukushima world, Murakami’s modest-budgeted special effects extravaganza boasts unforgettable creature designs and carries a message of cooperation and hope for all ages. Blu-ray Release date: December 8th, 2015 Sense and Sensibility BD - Rendered homeless and relatively poor by the patrilineal laws that dictated their father's will, Elinor and Marianne Dashwood (Thompson and Winslet) are not exactly the most marriageable young women in a world where desirability is usually conferred by property and birth. Shy, kindly Edward Ferrars (Grant) - favoured by the pragmatic Elinor - is likely to be disinherited should he marry 'low', while solid Col Brandon (Rickman) is forgotten by the headstrong Marianne as soon as popular, dashing John Willoughby (Wise) appears on the scene. First impressions, however, aren't always reliable. Twilight Time Blu-ray Release date: November, 2015 Downhill Racer BD - Astonishing Alpine location photography and a young Robert Redford in one of his earliest starring roles are just two of the visual splendors of Michael Ritchie’s visceral debut feature, Downhill Racer. In a beautifully understated performance, Redford is David Chappellet, a ruthlessly ambitious skier competing for Olympic gold with an underdog American team in Europe, and Gene Hackman provides tough support as the coach who tries to temper the upstart’s narcissistic drive for glory. With a subtle screenplay by acclaimed novelist James Salter, Downhill Racer is a vivid character portrait buoyed by breathtakingly fast and furious imagery that brings the viewer directly into the mind of the competitor. Blu-ray Release Date: November 17th, 2015 Closely Observed Trains BD - At a village railway station in occupied Czechoslovakia, a bumbling dispatcher’s apprentice longs to liberate himself from his virginity. Oblivious to the war and the resistance that surrounds him, this young man embarks on a journey of sexual awakening and self-discovery, encountering a universe of frustration, eroticism, and adventure within his sleepy backwater depot. Wry and tender, Academy Award-winning Closely Watched Trains is a masterpiece of human observation and one of the best-loved films of the Czech New Wave. Blu-ray Release Date: November 16th, 2015 The Lovers' Exile BD - ''The Lover's Exile,'' based on one of the classic Bunraku plays by Monzaemon Chikamatsu (1653-1724), was produced, directed and edited by Marty Gross, the Canadian film maker, as a labor of love, care and immense admiration. Blu-ray Release date: December 30th, 2013 One Deadly Summer BD - Eliane (Isabelle Adjani), a beautiful young woman, settles into a small town in the south of France with her introverted mother and physically handicapped father. Traumatized by her knowledge that her mother was raped by three men before she was born, Eliane thinks she's on a trail of vengeance when she's courted by a young garage mechanic (Alain Souchon), whose father has the only clue to the identity of her mother's aggressors. But as the story unfolds in Rashomon-like flashbacks and narrations, the tale becomes increasingly complex and leads inexorably to a stunning conclusion. Blu-ray Release Date: November 10th, 2015 Blood and Lace BD - After her mother’s brutal murder at the hands of a hammer-wielding maniac, teenaged Ellie Masters (Melody Patterson) is suddenly orphaned. She is sent to a home for children run by the enigmatic Mrs. Deere (Gloria Grahame), in spite of the concern that Ellie will be the newest target of her mother’s killer. But as terror strikes again and again, it becomes unclear who might be the bigger threat to Ellie’s life: the mysterious murderer with a hammer… or her sadistic new caretaker. Blu-ray Release date: November 24th, 2015 Ikiru BD - Considered by some to be Akira Kurosawa’s greatest achievement, Ikiru presents the director at his most compassionate—affirming life through an exploration of a man’s death. Takashi Shimura portrays Kanji Watanabe, an aging bureaucrat with stomach cancer forced to strip the veneer off his existence and find meaning in his final days. Told in two parts, Ikiru offers Watanabe’s quest in the present, and then through a series of flashbacks. The result is a multifaceted look at a life through a prism of perspectives, resulting in a full portrait of a man who lacked understanding from others in life. Blu-ray Release Date: November 23rd, 2015 Chaplin's Essanay Comedies BD - In late 1914, Charlie Chaplin was paid the then-unprecedented salary of $1,250 per week (with a bonus of $10,000) in exchange for signing a one-year contract with the Essanay Film Manufacturing Company. The resulting 14 films he created for Essanay find Chaplin further experimenting with new cinematic techniques, while continuing to add complexities and pathos into his celebrated Little Tramp character, soon to become immortalized as the face, hat, and mustache of modern screen comedy. Blu-ray Release Date: November 17th, 2015 The Decalogue BD - This is the brilliant series of ten films directed and co-written by Krzysztof Kieslowski for Polish television in 1987. Each short films is loosely but philosophically accurate in its basis on one of each of the Ten Commandments. Diagnosing moral ambiguities with simplistic and gripping realism is only scratching the surface of this probing and infinity everlasting series of short films that bind themselves together on a ultimately fascinating premise of the scriptures and the tablets of Moses. TVP Blu-ray Release Date: 2015 The Voyeur BD - based on the famous erotic novel (L'uomo che Guarda) by Alberto Moravia, tells the story of Eduardo 'Dodo', who in public is a professor of French literature but in private a desperately lovesick cuckold, married to the ever-more-elusive Sylvia. His life is shattered, when he becomes an onlooker rather than a participant in life. Those around him, though, seem to be living life to the fullest. His bedridden father has a scantily clad nurse, his students have unending sexual fun, sometimes in his presence, and even the public beach has become and orgy ground. Through a series of small revelations, Dodo slowly comes to realize who his rival is, the discovery, rather than destroying his marriage, strengthens and renews it. Blu-ray Release Date: November 10th, 2015 Mala Mala - The critically acclaimed MALA MALA explores the intimate moments, performances, friendships and activism of trans identifying people, drag queens and others who defy typical gender identities in Puerto Rico. The film features Ivana, an activist; Soraya, an older sex-change pioneer; Sandy, a prostitute looking to make a change; and Samantha and Paxx, both of whom struggle with the quality of medical resources available to assist in their transition. Hailed as “Sensitive and thoughtful” by the NEW YORK TIMES and winner of the audience award for documentary film at the Tribeca Film Festival, MALA MALA affirms that the quest to find oneself can be both difficult and beautiful. DVD Release Date: November 10th, 2015 All My Good Countrymen - Following the socialization of Czechoslovakia in 1948, a series of magical and humorous events happen to various residents of a small Moravian village. Director Vojtech Jasny, called "the spiritual father of the Czech New Wave" by Milos Forman, fled Czechoslovakia following the... Following the socialization of Czechoslovakia in 1948, a series of magical and humorous events happen to various residents of a small Moravian village. Director Vojtech Jasny, called "the spiritual father of the Czech New Wave" by Milos Forman, fled Czechoslovakia following the completion of this film. It was also one of the last films completed in the country prior to the Russian invasion in 1968. DVD Release Date: November 23rd, 2015 The City of the Dead - George Baxt scripted this extraordinarily good chiller from a story by Milton Subotsky, who also co-produced. A college student (Venetia Stevenson) with an interest in witchcraft goes to the Massachusetts town of Whitewood. It's a foggy, spooky town which gets even scarier when Stevenson discovers that the owner of the Raven's Inn, Mrs. Newlis (Patricia Jessel) is in fact a 268-year old witch. Jessel sold her soul to the Devil to regain her life after being burned at the stake. The whole town is her coven, including Stevenson's kindly history professor (Christopher Lee). Stevenson's boyfriend and brother arrive to look for her and discover human sacrifices and all sorts of evil goings-on. One of the few horror films of the period which still has the power to frighten, Horror Hotel is required viewing for genre fans. DVD Release Date: October 23rd, 2001
