Le Havre: The Criterion Collection (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE FILM: Please Note: The images used here are taken from promotional materials provided by Janus Films , not the Blu-ray edition under review. How might one go about transforming the rundown, low-rent districts, shipyards, and other workaday views in a non-tourist-attraction French port city into a visually lovely, sweet setting for a storybook-like political-fable film …

Get the Gringo (Blu-ray)

Recommended THE FILM: Say what you will about Mel Gibson’s personality, but the man can make a solid movie, both in front of and behind the camera.

Metropolitan (Blu-ray)

Highly Recommended THE FILM: Please Note: The images used here are taken from the 2006 Criterion DVD edition , not the Blu-ray edition under review. Whit Stillman ( Damsels in Distress ) is a magical filmmaker, and a challenging one, too, though in few of the ways that word might usually apply.
