DVD : Little Dorrit [1987]

Little Dorrit [1987]

List Price: £25.99

The film in itself was quite good, but the DVD itself is very disappointing: it has no subtitles at all.

In this day and age there is no excuse for a film to come out on DVD without any subtitles. The dialogue in this film is wonderfully beautiful, and it is a real shame not to share this in the form of sub-titles. English is not my native tongue, and I would've really appreciate it.

No are no extras on the DVD either, just the film. This is basically a VHS cassette in DVD format.

I remember watching Hanover street years ago, before most people had ever heard of home computing, and loved it so much that I took a few years, once I'd got a computer, searching to see if I cold find it on DVD anywhere. I purchased my copy from Amazon about three years ago, the only place who can generally find any of the more obscure films and music that I look for, and Hanover Street is still a winner. At first I thought it was going to be really cheesy, but it becomes very gutsy towards the end when Harrison, as a WWII American bomber pilot, manages to complete a mission, with his lover's husband, behind enemy lines after they are both shot down. Gallant to the end Harrison never discloses that he has twigged on to who the other guy is, ... Read More:

DVD : Jabberwocky [1977]

Jabberwocky [1977]


starring: Michael Palin, Harry H. Corbett, John Le Mesurier, Warren Mitchell, Max Wall
directed by: Terry Gilliam
February 17, 2003


Terry Gilliam (from Monty Python) directed this and it shows. Michael Palin is a young man in dung infested old times determined to make his impact. It's not up to vintage Python standards but this is cut from the same mold & it has some very funny moments. Great stuff.

I bought this DVD after reading of it in Kenneth Williams' Diaries The Kenneth Williams Diaries. I was prepared for a poor production from what he wrote on p.549: "...everyone gathered to watch 63 minutes of what has been shot so far on 'Hound of the Baskervilles'. It was all rather depressing. Again & again in this script, I've thought 'That is hilarious' yet the fact remains, there is nothing hilarious in any of the stuff I saw in the cinema today. It looked as if cues weren't being taken up with enough expertise & there are certain bits... which don't really belong to the story at all."
How right he was. The film is a bunch of barely-connected sketches which must have been either poorly directed, shot or edited - probably all three - because ... Read More:
