Perfect Understanding (Blu-ray)

Recommended The Movie: The 1933 romantic comedy Perfect Understanding , newly released on Blu Ray by the Cohen Film Collection, might best be described as a vanity project. Gloria Swanson performed double duty as actress and producer with this luxurious British production, resulting in an enjoyable yet quirky experiment. Swanson had a lot riding on Perfect Understanding .

My Neighbor Totoro (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended The Film: Hayao Miyazaki didn’t have a grand future in mind when he originally created Totoro, one of plush toys, hash-tags , and enduring cameo appearances . He didn’t even really have a movie in his sights when he began the initial creative process: My Neighbor Totoro started out as a children’s book, a straightforward departure for the filmmaker after Nausicaa of the Valley …

Pals of the Saddle (Blu-ray)

Recommended Pals of the Saddle (1938), the first of John Wayne’s eight “Three Mesquiteers” movies for Republic Pictures, B-Westerns he made during 1938-39, also happens to be the last released by Olive Films. Olive’s Blu-ray releases have consistently been outstanding, with these lowly little movies, pictures heretofore available only via public domain labels using horrifically bad video …

Stand Up Guys (Blu-ray)

Rent It THE FILM: Click an image to view Blu-ray screenshot with 1080p resolution. I lamented the aging of steadfast movie hero Clint Eastwood in my review for Trouble with the Curve , and have similar feelings about Al Pacino, Christopher Walken and Alan Arkin in Stand Up Guys .
