DVD Review THE GOLD RUSH (BLU-RAY)  I'm ashamed to say I'm never seen a movie either starring Charlie Chaplin or directed by him. What better way to finally break the seal on this cinema legend than with what many consider to be a comedic masterwork. Read More...

DVD Review FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS  On the road again, with Johnny Depp channeling the psychopharmacological vibe of Hunter Thompson, and Benicio del Toro riding shotgun. Read More... News 'Zookeeper' is a Childhood Fantasy Full of Slapstick and Bathroom Humor Posted by: News Editor - July 7, 2011, 12:29 pm - News PR Buster Keaton - Short Films Collection: 1920 - 1923 on DVD & Blu-ray June 14  This marks the first time that these 19 classic short comedies, produced between 1920 and 1923, will be available in the Blu-ray format, as well as the first time that all of these films will be released in the US in a single package.

DVD Review SOUL KITCHEN  Fatih Akin has yet to stumble as a director, and I'd be shocked if this was his first misfire. A powerful cast and compelling story should make this another unforgettable gem. Read More... DVD Review CHAPLIN AT KEYSTONE  Archives over the globe contributed to this massive and virtually complete collection of the beginnings of Charlie Chaplin's film career. Although he chafed at the factory-style work at Keystone during his year there in 1914, it was there that he learned much of the film craft and developed the beloved Little Tramp character that would make him one of the most popular actors in the world. Throw away all your old tapes and discs, because this is the real item, in solid restorations that finally allow these films to shine. Highly recommended as one of the best DVD releases of the year.

Despite the studio's name, there's nothing educational here, except lessons in comedy timing from the Great Stone Face himself. Read More... DVD Review SAYURI ICHIJO: FOLLOWING DESIRE  The cultural shock value of Tatsumi Kumashiro's sexy Pink Cinema title may have lost a little in the subsequent decades, but it remains a groovy little B-movie about the Japanese strip club scene in 1972. Read More... DVD Review THE GENERAL (BLU-RAY)  There's a sense that Blu-ray is just an improvement for recenet effects-laden extravaganzas. Bucking that trend, Kino offers up the first Blu-ray presentation of a silent film in America (the British disc of Sunrise having beaten it to the punch. But can an 85-year old film hold up in the HD era? Read More...

This amazing set from Kino brings to home video over 100 seldom-seen movies from the dawn of cinema by three of the leading creators at Gaumont. One DVD each is devoted to the directors Alice Guy, Louis Feuillade and the little-remembered LÈonce Perret, giving the viewer a fascinating cross-section of these early silents, with some amazing treasuresówould you believe color and sound movies in 1905? Read More... DVD Review DON'T TOUCH THE WHITE WOMAN  French cinematic royalty has a go at America. Hilarity ensues. Read More...
