Terror in a Texas Town is an enjoyable Western Drama from Dalton Trumbo and Joseph H. Lewis. I love watching Sterling Hayden on screen, and he is great here (even with a Swedish accent.)
Behold a Pale Horse is an excellent drama that takes place just after the Spanish Civil War. Gregory Peck, Omar Sharif, and Anthony Quinn all turn in fantastic performances.
Uncut Gems is the most intense and energetic drama of 2019. Adam Sandler gives one of the best performances of the year.
Vice Squad is a gritty piece of filmmaking from the Eighties with a standout performance by Wings Hauser.
With his second film, director Takeshi Kitano makes an incredibly offbeat and strange Yakuza film. Film Movement have given the film a solid release on Blu-ray.
Violent Cop is the first film directed by Takeshi Kitano. Film Movement have given it a good looking and sounding release.
The Bad and the Beautiful is an uncommonly thoughtful melodrama with solid performances by Kirk Douglas and Lana Turner. WB Archive have provided a beautiful transfer.
Boogie Boy is a good reminder of the independent film boom spawned by Quentin Tarantino’s success. MVD Rewind have given the film a deluxe release.
The great James Cagney portrays silent film star Lon Chaney in this heartstring pulling docudrama.
The Set-Up is one of the most tightly scripted and edited boxing dramas I have ever seen. This is a fantastic film starring Robert Ryan under the direction of Robert Wise.
Jim Jarmusch directed his most critically divisive film. While the merits of the film are debatable, the cinematography of Spain is incredible. Arrow Academy has given the film a beautiful release.
