            <description><![CDATA[At HDD, we may not have been as diligent as we&amp;rsquo;d like to have been about covering these Looney Tunes sets over the years. The simple reason is that we had hoped that, as these cartoons changed hands from either Warner Bros. proper or to Warner Archive, some of the more troublesome shorts would see new work, while also aiming for a Complete Collection opportunity for all of the shorts. A bit of both has happened.&amp;nbsp;
We&amp;rsquo;ve had greatest hits come to disc, and with the Collector&amp;rsquo;s Choice line, some of the more obscure fan favorites got their time to&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[As much as I hate to admit it to myself, I am at that age now, where just about every film or show from my childhood that I&amp;rsquo;m re-experiencing has to be viewed through that lens of nostalgia. Old movies. Old video games. Looking through my old comic books. Recently&amp;nbsp;Red Sonja on 4K UHD. All nostalgic runs. Some good, some bad. So, this is where I dive into a piece of my childhood, Hanna-Barbera&amp;rsquo;s Superstars 10. In 1987, I was all of five, almost six, and William Hanna and Joseph Barbera punched out feature-length animated films of their fan-favorite characters&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Content Warning: The following review discusses acts of suicide within the story of the film.&amp;nbsp;
Fuji_Jukai.mov is a truly special found footage movie, shot entirely on an iPhone. The film incorporates iPhone tech in a way that other found-footage films like Unfriended used&amp;nbsp;in-screen video calls and screen sharing as the crux of the footage. The story starts with a news crew filming a segment at the trailhead into Fuji Jukai, aka Japan&#039;s infamous forest. While filming, they find an abandoned iPhone with a long video. As we watch the video play out, the film follows three high school girls, Ami&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[How do you contain the life of an artist who&amp;rsquo;s created such wild and varied works as the Garbage Pail Kids trading cards, and the anthropomorphic animal graphic novel about the Holocaust, Maus, into a mere hour and forty minutes? Art Spiegelman is hard to define. He&amp;rsquo;s a cartoonist, sure, but that sounds reductive. He&amp;rsquo;s a creator of underground, irreverent comics. He&amp;rsquo;s also responsible for bringing uncomfortable subjects like the Holocaust into the social lexicon, so that we may never forget the horrors of that history.
Like all great artists, he&amp;rsquo;s all of those things and more. He&amp;rsquo;s a deeply&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[All animal movies have a formula, and they&amp;rsquo;re all different. Horse movies, for example, are a more dramatic affair. They&amp;rsquo;re about the bond humans have with animals, this primal connection between man and beast. Dog movies, on the other hand, are usually about some uptight paterfamilias who, god bless him, is set in his ways and needs to have his comfort zone shaken up by some wild, untamed quadruped who shows this square a thing or two about living.
Charles Grodin plays George Newton, the uptight father. Beethoven, who&amp;rsquo;s still just a wee, cute puppy, escapes from the clutches of&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Birthrite is a solid attempt at a pregnancy horror film, while not hitting most of the marks. The film stars Alice Kremelberg as Wren, a woman who is bequeathed a home in the New York boonies, and with her long-term girlfriend Maya, decides to move into the house to start their family. Once the two settle in, Wren starts showing a baby bump, and the pair goes to a fertility doctor who, as it turns out, had close ties with her relative who died. As they settle into the house, we see a lot of scenes attempting to set the&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Twin Cheeks is a hilarious low-budget send-up of David Lynch&amp;rsquo;s hit TV series, Twin Peaks. Well almost. As we learn in the supplements, the film&#039;s director, Kelly Hughes, had never seen the show Twin Peaks until after making the film, but was also inspired by&amp;nbsp;Fire Walk With Me. In a queer gender bent version of Twin Peaks, we see the death of the homecoming king after cruising for anonymous gay sex in the woods. While this happens, there&amp;rsquo;s a split screen of the murder taking place and his mother talking about how good of a boy he was ETC. The&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[It&amp;rsquo;s easy to cast Brian G. Hutton&amp;rsquo;s adaptation of Jon Cleary&amp;rsquo;s novel as a simple Indiana Jones clone. That&amp;rsquo;s even easier to do when you have tall Tom &quot;Almost Indy&quot; Selleck standing as the haunted, heavy-drinking, high-flying ace O&amp;rsquo;Malley while Bess Armstrong steps in as the plucky, headstrong Eve Tozer. Hell, the film is even a period piece, casting the action back to the 1920s. Lacking any Nazis, the similarities between High Road to China and Raiders of the Lost Ark end at the character dynamics. Tossing away this film as a mere clone would be a disservice to one&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[If there&amp;rsquo;s one thing that&amp;rsquo;s tough on any film, especially a low-budget independent feature, it&amp;rsquo;s being late to the party. Worse, you can be cast off as a clone of a better-received film and dismissed. A strong case for the point would be James Melkonian&amp;rsquo;s 1994 crazy night stoner comedy&amp;nbsp; The St&amp;ouml;ned Age. Our heroes are certainly dazed and probably more than a little confused about their futures, but this wild one-night ride cuts a different path through Torrence, California, in 1980.&amp;nbsp;
The night is like any other for stoner teens Hubbs (Bradford Tatum) and Joe(Michael Kopelow). Find some chicks,&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Many believed&amp;nbsp;Tea and Sympathy&amp;nbsp;could never be filmed due to its taboo subject matter, but after some critical narrative alterations and major concessions to the censors, MGM produced a fine screen version of Robert Anderson&#039;s hit Broadway play. The story of a sensitive teenage boy who doesn&#039;t fit in with his macho peers at an all-boys boarding school and is mercilessly bullied and ostracized as a result insightfully examines masculinity in American society and how going against the grain of established mores can crush the human psyche and spirit. Though the movie wasn&#039;t allowed to call a spade a spade and&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Though Bette Davis and Ann Sheridan receive top billing in The Man Who Came to Dinner, the real star of director William Keighley&#039;s sprightly adaptation of the hit comedy by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman is Monty Woolley. After all, the acerbic bearded actor plays the title role and even created the lovably cantankerous crank on the Broadway stage. Woolley devours the part of Sheridan Whiteside once again in the film version, bringing plenty of caustic bite to the pompous, prima donna commentator who becomes the eternal houseguest of Ernest and Daisy Stanley (Grant Mitchell and Billie Burke) when&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Damn, has it really been 9 years since I reviewed the original Kino Lorber/3-D Film Archive release of Alan Silliphant&amp;rsquo;s The Stewardesses? Time flies fast and furious in this game. As KLSC and the team at 3-D Film Archive continue to roll out restored Blu-ray releases of semi-forgotten favorites, it&amp;rsquo;s always fun to dig back into the vault. Not that I needed a new disc to give me a reason to rewatch this three-dimensional jiggler, but we&amp;rsquo;ve got a new disc now, and it&amp;rsquo;s worth every penny. While I&amp;rsquo;ll cherish my 3DTV until the day its board blinks out and&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Perfection. It&#039;s an elusive quality - eternally sought and rarely achieved. Yet Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers made it their standard, and in 10 films produced between 1933 and 1949, this ethereal dance team defined the term. Whether stomping out exuberant tap routines, waltzing on air, or constructing devastating mini-dramas to the music of Gershwin, Kern, and Berlin, Astaire and Rogers rarely make a false move. With impeccable style and grace, they sashay across the floor, wordlessly infusing a multitude of emotions into twirls, lifts, and dips. The phrase &quot;poetry in motion&quot; surely was coined with them in mind, and&#8230;]]></description>

They meet when Pete sells Big Boy a horse, and Big Boy offers to help him with a ranch. With a bit of a shrug, Pete says there&#039;s no way he could afford to pay for help. Big Boy insists. He ain&#039;t asking for a job, he&#039;s offering to help the man. And, just like that, the two are thick as thieves. When the Second World War rages on, the two enlist together--Pete opts for the Army, serving his time in Europe, and Big Boy&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Specter&#039;s Rock is one of those movies that&amp;rsquo;s pretty hard to follow plot-wise, but is wildly entertaining to watch. Highly influenced by the work of David Lynch, Specter&#039;s Rock deals with themes of the connectivity of dreams, murder, and weird happenings, and a cavalcade of oddball characters delivering unhinged dialogue. This film is hard to follow at times. The plot revolves around a few different characters sharing time equally on screen. The story starts with Geneva seeing her boyfriend in the corner of her room late at night, only to find out that he was murdered at the exact moment&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve always liked Ann Sheridan. Unfairly saddled with the sexpot nickname &quot;The Oomph Girl,&quot; the alluring Warner Brothers star rarely got the credit she deserved for her substantial acting talent. Though often stuck in the shadow of studio queen Bette Davis and her ladies in waiting Joan Crawford, Olivia de Havilland, and Ida Lupino, Sheridan nevertheless brightened many a 1940s feature. Her beauty, mellifluous contralto voice, and street-smart, take-no-prisoners attitude made her an ideal leading lady for such legendary Warner tough guys as Cagney, Bogart, and Raft. She could take their guff and give it back twofold, but also possessed&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[It&amp;rsquo;s been a bit since we last saw a really good creature feature horror film that wasn&amp;rsquo;t played to comedic leanings, a cheap mockbuster, or completely missed its potential. As an example, I enjoyed the hell out of Cocaine Bear, but that was because it was more funny and gory than actually scary. I thought the concept for 2025&#039;s Anaconda&amp;nbsp;was a perfect setup, but y&#039;know, it helps when your giant snake movie actually has a giant snake for longer than the last 20 minites. Before this year, I couldn&amp;rsquo;t recall the last man-vs-nature creature feature horror picture that plastered me&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Girls Town is a fun, albeit serious, look at four young high school seniors who, after a classmate&amp;rsquo;s death, try to navigate life, their future, and the patriarchal forces that stand in their way. After their close friend Nikki&amp;rsquo;s (Aunjanue Ellis Taylor) suicide, three girls, Emma (Anna Grace), Angela (Bruklin Harris), and Patti (Lili Taylor), discover her diary where she admits her cause for suicide.
Girls Town is a superb 90&amp;rsquo;s indie movie and feels incredibly similar to Hal Hartley movies in the best way possible, but substitute Brooklyn for Long Island. The film follows a group of 4 friends&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Greenland caught me off guard when I saw it some years back. I saw the ads and, like so many other folks, tuned it out as yet another disaster movie. It became background noise. I saw a positive review from a writer I admire, and the gist of it was, &quot;I know it looks derivative, but it&#039;s got some real heart to it.&quot; And then someone else I knew said they liked it, followed by someone else, and so on and so on. Eventually, I saw it, and I liked it quite a bit. There was an emotional rawness to&#8230;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[I Met Him in Paris&amp;nbsp;really should have been titled&amp;nbsp;&quot;I Met THEM in Paris,&quot;&amp;nbsp;because this mid-1930s screwball romcom begins with its heroine meeting&amp;nbsp;two&amp;nbsp;men in a Paris bar, both of whom are instantly smitten. Both guys then spend the rest of the movie relentlessly pursuing her in their respective, inimitable ways. And while Paris does play a part in the film, it&#039;s a small one. The bulk of the zany action transpires in Switzerland, and it&#039;s out on the slopes, on the ice rink, and in bobsleds and horse-drawn sleighs, where some of the funniest scenes of this underrated romp take place.&#8230;]]></description>
