Baby, Blow-up and Blow-out in DVD

A film that got a lot of attention in 2007 was Juno. Rightfully so. The writing, the acting, the music, worthy of all the awards and nominations. Check it out in DVD this week. A quiet triumph on the screen was Lars and the Real Girl, also out in DVD. A sweet, poignant story of growth and acceptance, loved it. One of my favorites from 2007 was Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. Intense, violent, disturbing and fantastic! A thriller that grabbed me from the opening scenes and never let go. Great films in DVD this week, enjoy!

A great DVD week, indeed. Sidney Lumet hasn't made an excellent film in a long while (and no, "Find Me Guilty" doesn't count) but "Before the Devil..." is a real return to form.
