<b>The Best of Everything Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>Positioned midway between Fox's featherweight comedy of <em class='bbc'>How to Marry a Millionaire</em> and the overheated melodramatics of <em class='bbc'>Valley of the Dolls, </em>Jean Negulesco’s <em class='bbc'>The Best of Everything</em>...

Kino says that someone else has HAWAII. My guess is that someone is Twilight Time. It was one of the titles I asked about and they said " Don't give up on any of them". I wonder what condition it is in. Some one here asked Kino if HAWAI is another ALAMO and they said no. So I do have some...

<b>Mr. Hobbs Takes a Vacation Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>During his very lengthy career, James Stewart managed to show his versatility in just about every possible genre of moviemaking from thrillers to romantic comedies, biographies, dramas, westerns, even mysteries and musicals. Henry Koster’s...

<b>State of Grace Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>Phil Joanou’s <em class='bbc'>State of Grace</em> is blessed with a dream cast acting some of the grittiest and most memorable characters of their respective careers. The film was completely overlooked upon its release in 1990, a year in which two little...

<b>Mississippi Mermaid Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>Dual-sided obsessions that turn into genuine love highlight François Truffaut’s <em class='bbc'>Mississippi Mermaid</em>, a film which focuses on personal demons and obsessive behaviors more strongly than in many of his more famous works. A...

<b>Absolute Beginners Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>There’s an awesome amount of energy expended in the musical numbers of the under heralded <em class='bbc'>Absolute Beginners</em> directed by Julien Temple, and while the dancing and production values will at various times remind one of dances in <em...

<b>The Young Lions Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>A patchwork quilt of stories featuring men on both sides of World War II and their lady loves, Edward Dmytryk’s <em class='bbc'>The Young Lions</em> is an absorbing if overlong period melodrama. With two of the greatest actors ever to appear in films in...

<b>The Night of the Generals Blu-ray Review</b><p><p><em class='bbc'>The Night of the Generals</em> is a large-scale, star-studded murder mystery about a sadistic serial killer during World War II. What makes it a unique story is the fact that the murderer is a German general who likes to...

Truffaut's Mississippi Mermaid is a lovely film, and goes to places viewers may not expect. That's one of its pleasures. Anything released on Blu-ray by Francois Truffaut should be met with celebration, and Twilight Time's new Blu-ray gets a huge cheer from this quarter. The only problem...

Anatole Litvak's The Night of the Generals (1967), is one of the films, and it seems like there are dozens of them, although there are not, that are spawn of Lawrence of Arabia, and continuing agreements with Sam Spiegel's production company. This one reunited Mssrs. O'Toole and Sharif, along...

<b>American Buffalo Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>Known for his piercing and trenchant dialogue, playwright David Mamet has produced a number of scintillating works for the stage, and several of them have received big screen adaptations. The 1996 movie version of his breakthrough play <em...

<b>Hombre Blu-ray Review</b><p><p>One of the most atypical westerns of its era, Martin Ritt’s <em class='bbc'>Hombre</em> is also one of the most entertaining and unpredictable films of its type. Full of gritty realism and featuring an anti-hero that still charms and mesmerizes, Ritt’s movie...

For those who know, it is a known that any film restoration is only as good as the knowledge of those who oversee and approve as well as those who do the work in the trenches. I've been waiting impatiently for a quality Blu-ray on Fred Zinnemann's 1966 Academy Award winning Best Picture, and...

Per Twilight Time's Facebook page (on the Judy Geeson/To Sir With Love thread), the following Twilight Time titles are noted as "dwindling" (no actual numbers posted as of yet): Used Cars (1980) The Blue Max (1966) Thunderbirds Are Go (1966) Sleepless In Seattle (1993) In Like Flint...

[I've wrestled with posting this as I don't want it to be incorrectly taken as criticism of an active HTF sponsor, which it most certainly is not. Here goes...] I know why I love and collect movies, but what's come as a surprise has been my escalating rate of accumulation. There's been an...

From what I can tell John Carpenter's movie Christine doesn't seem to be available on bluray disc in the US market. Does anyone here have a import that is compatible with US players and where did you get it from? Is there any news of Christine getting a new HD transfer for our market? I would...

<b>Zardoz Blu-ray Review</b><p>John Boorman’s <em class='bbc'>Zardoz</em> is in some ways like that little kid who used to live next door: he’s messy and can be irritating at times but he can also be a lot of fun to be with and might sometimes even guide you toward some valuable revelations...

First off, I enjoyed the previous presentation of Journey to the Center of the Earth on Blu-ray and never found it to be the travesty that a few others did. I began by skimming that disc again - and for something that was an older transfer I still found it nice, and I wasn't one of those people...

<b>The Story of Adèle H. Blu-ray Review</b><p>The debilitating effects of a romantic obsession are captured in haunting, edifying detail in Francois Truffaut’s <em class='bbc'>The Story of Adèle H., </em>his 1975 biographical look at the daughter of Victor Hugo and her plunge into maniacal...

<b>The Fantasticks Blu-ray Review</b><p>Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt’s <em class='bbc'>The Fantasticks</em> is one of those intimate, charming theatrical parables whose utter preciousness either works for an audience or it doesn’t. It obviously worked for New York audiences since the original...

<b>Richard III (1995) Blu-ray Review</b><p>Modern dress interpretations of Shakespeare’s classic plays aren’t a new trend; it’s been done on stage for years, and the movies are merely catching up to what stage directors have been doing for centuries. The 1995 version of <em class='bbc'>Richard...

<b>U Turn Blu-ray Review</b><p>Oliver Stone's describes his 1997 film <em class='bbc'>U Turn</em> as "one of my strangest" and "some people say the darkest I ever did." It is a modern, violent film noir, but Stone also calls it a "film soleil" because the exteriors are nearly all filmed on...

<b>April Love Blu-ray Review</b><p>Another of Twentieth Century Fox’s musicalized remakes of a non-musical original, Henry Levin’s <em class='bbc'>April Love</em> is a sweetly pleasant if undemanding tuneful trifle. The second film of star Pat Boone’s movie career and one of his biggest hits...

Twilight Time is entering Criterion turf by releasing a Truffaut film. Hopefully, there will be no range wars. Based at least partially upon the diaries kept by Adele, one of Victor Hugo's daughters, M. Truffaut has created on of his finest works. As photographed by the great Nestor...

<p>Richard Loncraine's Richard III, is a very out of the box take on Shakespeare, and I believe it works. &nbsp;The screenplay is from the fim's star, Ian McKellan and director Loncraine.</p> <p>Twilight Time's new Blu-ray, is a nice looking product, with quality color, a decent amount of...
