Review Laurel & Hardy: Bacon Grabbers (Silent) / Image Entertainment:Their next to last silent comedy, "Bacon Grabbers" is an excellent Laurel and Hardy comedy, and boasts the sort of stellar cast which would follow the boys into talkies-Edgar Kennedy, Charlie Hall and even the young Jean Harlow, who was headed for superstardom. The plot was one of those simplistic wonders for which silent comedy was so well known: Stan and Babe are members of the local constabulary, assigned to the attachment squad. Edgar has stiffed the lienholder on his grand console; the boys are sent to serve him with papers and get it back. Sounds simple, right? Remember this is the world of Laurel and Hardy!.

Review Le Doulos (The Finger Man) / Kino Video:Though he had forced his way into French film culture by working entirely outside his country's studio system in the 1940s and 1950s, by the 1960s director Jean-Pierre Melville was working with larger budgets and well-known actors such as Jean-Paul Belmondo, star of Le Doulos. An extension of Melville's fascination with the existential milieu of American gangster films, Le Doulos presents New Wave icon Belmondo as Silien, a man newly released from prison and by reputation a professional informer. A figure, then, of possible duplicity and ambiguity, Silien is the perfect Melvillian hero, difficult to read but propelled by internal forces manifested as direct action. Maintaining friendships with both cop and crook, Silien's notoriety as a "finger man" who informs on the latter is underscored when one acquaintance, a police inspector (Daniel Crohem), waits in ambush for another, a burglar (Serge Reggiani), to perform his next job. But did Silien actually rat out the fellow? Melville pushes the envelope of our perceptions by making it appear Silien did, and then goes through the tale again to reveal another story. A much darker film than his celebrated Bob le Flambeur, Le Doulos is an absorbing tale of a world that seems to exist between light and shadow. -Tom Keogh.

Review This Happy Breed / Homevision:David Lean's beautiful adaptation of Noel Coward's play is an absorbing as well as charming look at an English family's struggle for stability between the two World Wars. Lean does a masterful job of gently penetrating human nature with truly imaginative camera direction. Robert Newton and Celia Johnson are brilliant, with an especially poignant performance by Johnson. One of David Lean's best cinematic accomplishments.

Review The Sword and the Dragon (1959-USSR) / Russia:COLOR. Directed by ALEXANDER PTUSHKO. Ukraine-born filmmaker Ptushko was noted as an accomplished creator of celluloid fables designed especially for children. However, anyone between the ages of eight and 108 will relish this sweeping spectacular which depicts the courage of Ilya Morometz, a legendary Russian hero of the Middle Ages. Once upon a time, there was a happy and peaceful kingdom of golden lakes and rolling hills and fertile soil. A plundering tribe headed by the vicious Kalin has ravaged the land, pillaging village after village and leaving only desolation and despair. Kalin is a warlord whose brutality is "unmatched in history. " Only one person can defy him: a brawny farmer and man of the people who is "stout of heart and brave of spirit," and who is known as Ilya Morometz. With magic sword in hand Ilya sets off down "the road that leads to death" in his quest to topple Kalin. Two of the most terrifying obstacles he must overcome are a wind demon and a flying three-headed fire-dragon. [+]
Ilya also will come into contact with the "Little Falcon," a fearless young warrior who was kidnapped from his village as a child and raised by Kalin to be Ilyas enemy. Little does Ilya know that "The Falcon" is none other than his very own son! This exceptional film is crammed with epic battle scenes and special effects that are nothing short of magical. Dubbed in English. 83 minutes.
