Keyword View: monologue DVD Review BADLANDS (BLU-RAY)  Watching Terrence Malick's early-career classic with a young Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen never gets old, as there's always some tiny nuance to discover. Now, thanks to The Criterion Collection, the film sports a brand new 4K digital transfer, which is all the excuse I need to explore the film yet again. Read More... DVD Review FEAR AND DESIRE (BLU-RAY)  The legendary Stanley Kubrick's first feature film finally makes its way to Blu-ray, after being virtually unseen since it first showed up in theaters back in 1953. The fact that Kino has thrown in a documentary short by Kubrick as well, makes this realease one of the easier purchasing decisions of the year. Read More... PR The Ernie Kovacs Collection Volume 2 on DVD Oct 23  Kovacs, whose offbeat humor graced the airwaves for just a decade in the 1950s and 60s, served healthy portions of the offbeat to his audiences, who had never seen anything quite like this cigar-wielding charmer. Wickedly funny but not offensive, Kovacs' unique humor and flair for improvisation would ripple across generations, influencing TV funnymen from Johnny Carson, Monty Python and David Letterman to Jim Henson, Pee Wee Herman and Saturday Night Live. Read More... Article The Newsroom: Cable News Media Played for Laughs and Cries  If everybody hates it, that usually means I like it. The Newsroom on HBO is one of the best things to come along in a while. Not just because it is Aaron Sorkin, not just because Jeff Daniels is not Tom Hanks and certainly not just because I hate the Tea Party too. All over the place and almost like the real thing, it is television worth watching. Read More... DVD Review GRAY'S ANATOMY (BLU-RAY)  I haven't seen this wonderful film since its first home video release, and I can't wait to relive that experience all over again. Steven Soderbergh has come a long way since, but this is still regarded as one of his best works. Read More... PR Interview with Lynn Collins of John Carter out on DVD & Blu-ray Jun 5  Featuring stunning special effects, jaw-dropping action sequences and unforgettable characters, John Carter is a heroic and inspirational adventure that will thrill audiences beyond imagination. With the Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD of the heroic tale about to be released, we catch up with actress Lynn Collins - who plays Dejah Thoris in the movie - to find out more... Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment Read More... DVD Review THE DEAN MARTIN VARIETY SHOW UNCUT  Campy, shlocky, silly and imminently entertaining, The Dean Martin Variety Show roped in viewers week after week during its entire run. This set contains six full episodes in all their uncut glory. Read More... PR Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods on DVD May 16  - Double disc set features over an hour of new content including magic rituals, Morrison's writing process, extended interview w/ Frank Quitely Read More... DVD Review SUPER (BLU-RAY)  It may seem that the superhero parody genre is pretty one-note and tired, but Troma vet James Gunn seems very comfortable in that area, having also written the completely underrated The Specials. As writer/director Gunn unleashes Super - with Rainn Wilson as a wannabe crimefighter - a weirdly addictive mix of humor, violence and drama with a terrific cast that is just perverse and left-of-center enough that it deserves to become a veritable cult classic.
Read More... PR 1967's David Holzman's Diary on DVD and Blu-ray Aug 16  This landmark exercise in faux-documentary filmmaking comes to Blu-ray in a new transfer, preserved by the Pacific Film Archive. Read More... DVD Review PARIS, TEXAS (BLU-RAY)  A beautifully forlorn drama from Wim Wenders finally gets the BD treatment, making it all the better to savor one of Harry Dean Stanton's most haunting and lonely performances. Read More... DVD Review THE EXILES  What would you call a movie that has been an inspiration to several generations of film students, telling the story of a lost generation with gorgeous cinematography, though it was never given a theatrical showing until nearly 50 years after it was completed? With a largely unheard but killer rock score by The Revels? Well, "revelation" would seem an appropriate word. Read More... DVD Review GARRISON KEILLOR: THE MAN ON THE RADIO IN THE RED SHOES  Garrison Keillor has created an entire town with his words, over 30 years of weekly radio monologues shaping the lives of the residents of Lake Wobegone, Minn. Garrison Keillor: The Man On the Radio in the Red Shoes looks for the man behind the stories. Not surprisingly, it just finds more stories. Read More... DVD Review WAYNE'S WORLD 2  In a stunning display of the amount of thought Paramount put into the production of Wayne's World 2 on Blu-ray, the back cover refers to it as "the most awaited video" since Wayne's World, marketing copy you might remember from when the movie was released 15 years ago... on video. Read More... DVD Review MY DINNER WITH ANDR…  Criterion goes whole hog for this landmark two-hander. Read More... DVD Review RUSSELL BRAND IN NEW YORK CITY  Russell Brand was great in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but can he deliver the goods in his own stand-up comedy special? Read More... DVD Review MEAN GIRLS (BLU-RAY)  This Blu-Ray release doesn't offer any new extras, but the film remains a smart and comical peek at the high school social scene.
Read More... PR STEVE HOGARTH - H: Naked in the Chapel It was a magical night, a great vibe and I think this captures it beautifully! All in all - it's a good-humoured romp! To relive the full horror of my life, there's bonus material of some classic diary monologues too. If you were there (at the gig, I mean), you can relive the experience. If you weren't and you'd like to hear some stripped-bare, intimate performances of my favourite songs, then this is for you. - Steve Hogarth Read More... |
